Make sure you dress up for this restaurant! It's full of gorgeous people and the decor is pretty amazing too...But it's the food that makes this place so special. The philly beef air sandwich was so delicious, I would have been happy to eat them all night...but we only had the one and sampled other things on the menu. The... More

A long wait, I booked for 8, shown to the chiefs counter at 9, low and behold when I arrived at the counter I was the only person at the counter, was it worth the wait? Not really, interesting food, trying too hard, and a little fussy, More

Great food, attentive staff, cool place. You'll remember your dinner here as the food is quite experimental. More

Unless you are looking for over rated, average food which you cannot enjoy as they make you move for every course. Service and food are definitely not worth it. More

Food is excellent we ordered from both the traditional and new way menu. All dishes pack big flavors in a very small bite, this is not a restaurant where you get full but instead indulge in interesting tastes, textures and presentations. We dined on a week night and booked on Open Table so we did not have to wait and... More

Beautiful ambviance. Good service. The food presentation was beautiful and that is where the positives ends. Now the negative, Very noisy, the tapas were terrible and the final insult was the bill for 2 people with 6 tapas and 4 drinks $250.00 plus $20 for a mandatory vallet. I have had wonderful tapas at other restaunst in L.A. for much... More
