The woodsy patio at Wilshire is one of the most coveted spaces on the L.A. dining circuit—its candlelight, firelight, and gurgling fountain reel in a hip crowd beneath a cloud of canvas. A passion for organic market-fresh ingredients is reflected in dishes like sunchoke-apple soup with blue cheese croutons and leg of lamb with cumin-scented bean puree. The eclectic wine list is first-rate, and there's a lively bar scene here, too.
