Republique is one of be most thoughtfully crafted restaurants in LA. Designed like a European Castle with modern lines, this cafe is unique and exquisite. Service is thoughtful and the family style menu presentations allows for one to try multiple delectables in one visit. Price was certainly premium but so was the experience. Come for the beauty, come as a foodie, and come to have a memorable night on the town.
