Best Organic Food Restaurants in Lynwood

visited on a friday night at 6:45pm with a reservation for 4. our party ended up only being two people, and when i mentioned this to the hostess she said it would not be a problem. as i waited for my partner to arrive, i was invited into the bar area to wait. the bar was fully seated, so i sat at one of the coffee tables just adjacent to the bar area. ambiance was classy, warm and elegant. the four-piece jazz band was providing excellent music. i was offered water while i waited, then was asked if i wanted to see the menu and order a drink. i placed my drink order, and was seated before it arrived. (it was re-routed to our table with no issues) my friend & i ordered the house rolls (a must-order!), duck confit (excellent!), the short ribs (tasty!), the side of brussels sprouts (delicious!) and the macaroni & cheese (yummy!). would absolutely recommend any of these items. our server was attentive & helpful, especially with our questions about the food. (she was also super helpful with explaining some of the dessert options; which we ultimately opted not to have.) upon receiving the check, there was an error that was immediately corrected with no issues. i would highly recommend somerville for a special night out at a black-owned restaurant in the neighborhood! it was a bit pricey, but well worth the cost!

We love coming here, food and service is amazing.

Second time there food was again delicious, service was impeccable. Parking across the street. Great wine selection. Beef cheeks were super tender and duck was very tasty

Xochil and Omar are the best. They both took care of us and will be coming back just because of how good they treated us.

San Laurel epitomizes innovation and elegance even as it avoids the rough edges of some of the trendy eateries that LA foodies are wont to chase. Its concept will be understood by those who want a genuine fine dining experience and can appreciate its extensions the European Spanish culinary traditions as well those who want to see the California/Los Angeles influences represented there. Our dining experience last Sunday was a success from start to finish. It began with the mezcal-based Foggy Hill cocktail that did arrive in a fog of citrus-thyme vapors clearing to reveal a russet liquid chilled by a single diamantine cube and also one of José Andrés' savvy variations on his signature G & Ts. From there it went to a dish of grilled eggplants with mole and one of wild mushrooms in the richest sauce imaginable. For the main plate we shared the basic-sounding "meat and potatoes" that turned out to be anything but basic. It was the most lavish bone-in ribeye I have ever seen, grilled to medium-rare perfection and surrounded by a wreath of herbs. Once presented at table, it was swiftly returned to the kitchen and reappeared carefully carved into bite-size pieces. Over this our server poured a remarkably flavorful jus. It was enough for three. The potatoes were an ethereal purée with a pool of herbal green liquid that left an impression of accompanying greens on the plate. A glass of Tempranillo made it all go down effortlessly. Dessert was a small gem of chocolate crémeux and mint flavors reminiscent of a mousse but creamier. As you would expect, the service at San Laurel is deft and discreet by an intelligent staff. The ambience is relaxed and refined. My review spreads it on pretty thick, but I hope it gives you an idea of the attention to detail that distinguishes everything there. I really do love the place and its special atmosphere. I have dined there four or five times without disappointment whatsoever. I highly recommend it.
