Cicada
$$-$$$$, Italian, Downtown
Fodor's Review:
Cicada, certainly one of the most romantic and architecturally dramatic dining venues in L.A., occupies the ground floor of the 1928 art deco Oviatt Building. The glass doors are Lalique, carved maple columns soar two stories to a gold leaf ceiling, and from the mezzanine a glamorous bar overlooks the spacious dining room. "Modern Italian" best describes the menu: shrimp ravioli in curry sauce, Maine lobster crepes, and braised veal shank with dried-fruit risotto grace the menu.
