Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Hollywood

We go to many Michelin Star restaurants and enjoy the tasting menus. We decided Meteora was next after having experienced Vespertine, both restaurants by Chef Jordan Kahn. The culinary experience begins the moment you walk through the elegantly designed entrance. Once inside, you are enveloped in an ambiance of sophistication and warmth by decor of harmonious blend of modern aesthetics and subtle nods to nature. There were plenty of soft lighting and organic materials to make you feel like one with nature. The service by our waiter Daniel and staff was impeccable. They guided us through an exquisite journey of flavors. The culinary creations at Meteora are nothing short of art. Each dish is a testament to the chef’s dedication to innovation and quality, showcasing locally sourced ingredients that are transformed into masterpieces. The tasting menu is a must-try, offering a series of meticulously crafted courses that take your palate on a delightful adventure. We asked for something more than the 4-course tasting menu and the staff came back with the 7-course menu. Our party of 6 embarked on the latter journey. As the meal progressed, it became clear that Meteora is not just about food; it's about storytelling. Seated in the private dining room called “The Nest”, our group enjoyed the culinary experience and said this is up there with a few of our favorite Michelin star restaurants.

What an absolutely fantastic experience! A wonderful intimate dinner with extraordinary dishes and every bite was one of admiration of Barbara and her staff’s labor of love. This is one my most favorite experiences in memory which includes several Michelin three star restaurants. This is an LA gem and not to be missed!

Absolutely fantastic. It was a thanksgiving pre fixe which in past experiences in other restaurants has always been mediocre. This was not the case. Everything was perfect including the wine pairing. Initially, we were bummed it wasn’t the normal menu since we had never dined here before but my fiance and I both agreed we were happy it ended up the way it did. 10/10. Staff were excellent and attentive. They read all the queues perfectly and showcased lots of knowledge in all categories. Go here. You will not be disappointed.

We had a wonderful anniversary dinner! Our server, Jen was so friendly and kind. Immediately gave us complimentary Prosecco to celebrate. She reviewed the menu with us and advised us based on preferences. We had the mozzarella bi bufala, the orecchiette, raviolo, Caesar salad, and the braised beef cheek special. Everything was so delicious! Cannot wait to go back!

From the moment we walked in, until we left, the experience was just spectacular! Jason E hosted us the entire time we were there celebrating my wife’s birthday. His attention to detail and service was just exemplary! Thank you spago team, for an unforgettable night! Both my wife and I, were simply amazed by your hospitality! Jay K.
