   予約して行きましたが、お店がまさかの営業停止？？？でした。そこらへんの連絡が一切無しでしたので、正直困りました！！！

   Food still needs a lot of fixing. None of the dishes were special

   Good food but small portions, quite noisy, convenient to Wiltern Theater though.

   Great ambiance and food. Keep in mind that the shared plates are actually pretty large. We couldn't finish everything.

   Absolutely wonderful dining experience. Our server, Andy, is the best. We will ask for him again. His recommendations and descriptions of dishes definitely on point . Everything so tasty and fresh - especially enjoyed the Uni Toast, Galbi & the desserts. The ambience of restaurant - modern, clean, upscale. We will definitely be back.

   The parking is easy, free with validation next door. The restaurant is large with a moderate noise level but vibrant scene. The food is amazing, every dish was delicious, without a big price tag. Was very satisfied with our experience and will definitely return.

   If looks could kill, you'd fall dead upon walking into Terra Cotta. This place is gorgeous! The attention to entail and immaculate work put into the amazingly refined and upscale ambiance and decor is very clear. From personalized lamps and lights in the hugely spacious bar to the dim chandeliers and mirrors that surround the dining area, you get the whole experience with your eyes as you walk in. Why one star shy? The food is great, but it could be better. Wasabi on the tartar is overpowering, shrimp in the fried rice is soggy, and wagyu was overcooked, but it was still a great meal. Starters? The wagyu tartar is honestly quite good. If you can't handle raw beef, don't do it. But if you like egg yolks and taro chips, this is for you. Fried cauliflower with gochujang? Bomb. Crunchy, chewy, slightly spicy. The perfect vegetable side to your meal. As for the mains, the squid ink fried rice is awesome. Huge plate of black rice and juicy clams will satisfy your palate. We also had the wagyu, which was tender and had some decadent mashed potatoes, but it couldn't hold up to the buttery richness of CUT. How do you end the meal? A big bowl of their decadent creme brûlée and the matcha mille feuille to boot. Creamy, rich, green tea heavy. Crispy dough layers. You'll thank me later.

   Amazing food! A twist of Asian, with a lot of creativity. The food was exceptional. A mushroom dish was generously served and to die for (do people still say that?), and various seafood created to inspire your pallet with unique Asian, some with Peru-Asian (Nobu chef) influences. The highlight was the perfectly created Old Fashion and Michael, the late night server. He had an amazing persona and hilariously funny. What a gem of a find. They are updating the decor to warm It up a bit. It's currently too clubby, noisy and distracting for the amazing food the chef turns out. We are definitely going back!

    Their dishes were taste good, however, compare to the price, I would say it is over valued. Dishes didn't serve in order, some of main dishes served before the appetizer so that a few of our friends had to finish their dishes before others. Servers were nice and kind, however, they don't come to you unless you call them. Wine didn't server properly and a server didn't ever know how to open the wine bottles. Lighting was a little bright, they should lower the dimmer. Terro Cotta should be a lot more professional if they want to keep it as fancy high end restaurant.
