Large bowls of colorful citrus for making cocktails sit atop a twenty-foot long bar perfect for grabbing a glass of wine or a bite to eat. As you explore further towards the display kitchen, you enter our lounge, also referred to as the wine library. Knotted wood shelves display our wines, divided up by wine region. Windows surround the North side of the dining room, allowing our guests to gaze out onto the fountain in our courtyard. I describe the décor as thoughtful and collective, creating little vignettes for dining areas.

    The ambience was great, food was delicious. Service was Ok. Our waitress asked us if we wanted our burrito wet or dry. We asked her if she can explain what it looks like as a wet burrito. She said we can get either green or red salsa which she is on the top. We decided to get a burrito, but asked for green and red salsa on the side. when we got the bill we noticed that there was a $3.50 fee for each salsa, green and red (probably approximately less than 1/4 of a cup. I wish I would’ve known, for $7.00. I could’ve bought an entire jar from Costco’s. Don’t order the salsa before asking additional. That was disappointing.

    The food here is truly amazing, an easy recommendation. The service was amazing always met with a smile. and truly never felt like I was left out. The ambience was great and something fairly unique not the reason you should go to this place but nice nevertheless. Each dish truly felt like I was going back to something amazing- they all had great profiles that would compliment the other dishes very well. everything I ate seemed well thought out and truly wonderful. an easy recommendation to anyone looking to grab food in LA.
