Chef Stephanie Izard and her team are thrilled to have joined LA’s vibrant restaurant community and continue our tradition of serving bold-flavored foods in a fun and lively family-style setting. Stephanie and her team have also crafted new dishes inspired by California produce and local flavors, like carrot-tahini dip with tahini tofu, and curried goat with radishes, pickled vegetables, and masa chips. To enhance the experience we offer a selection of wines from around the world with a focus on small producers, a rotating list of craft beers, and a list of innovative cocktails created by our bartenders.

    THE BEST FOOD WE HAVE HAD IN LA! This restaurant blew my mind! The flavor profiles were totally unique and brilliant. Every single thing we had was excellent. The hamachi poke was fantastic, the goat liver mousse with craisin relish and crispy fried crumpets was phenomenal, and maybe my favorite thing we ate! The goat belly with smoked blueberry was also fantastic. The desserts were great as well, we particularly liked the pineapple whip sorbet with smokey roasted pineapple on top.

    A great twist on Asian fusion style food. We particularly enjoy the mango sticky rice.

    Very accommodating for food preferences in our party of four. Every dish was perfection. This restaurant is our favorite in LA and since we live downtown, we come back every chance we get.

    Staff was very helpful, attentive without being intrusive. Food was incredible, varied enough to suit our group (even with some dietary restrictions and one very picky eater!)

    Parking is always difficult here. The dinner menu did not have much to choose from but it was good. If they have a different set of meals on the different menu I would go again.
