Fodor's Review:

Young, intense David Myers -- one of the city's most exciting and unpredictable chefs -- shoots the works here. A slab of polished granite topped with an exquisite orchid arrangement anchors the sleek dining room. The prix-fixe tasting menus are a good choice here, since they allow you to try several of Myers's unique dishes. An occasional item is too precious, but the successful dishes win out. Highlights might include seared foie gras paired with beets, kumquats and red wine vinegar ice cream, corn soup with a corn-bacon beignet, Scottish salmon in carrot-cumin puree, and a lemon verbena cheesecake with a moscato granita.

Stellar Food In a Stylish Setting With Impeccable Service

Posted by Joseph from Los Angeles on 11/2/06

Stellar food in a stylish setting with impeccable service. My wife and I have been there twice, and it has fast become our favorite "foodie" restaurant in Los Angeles. Let me give you an example of the service. My wife is allergic to tomatoes and told the waiter on our first visit (we ordered the tasting menu). On our second visit (months later), my wife ordered a salad off the regular menu, and a different waiter asked, without prompting, whether she would like to hold the tomatoes on her salad because of her allergy.
