Loved the whole experience and look forward to returning. Every dish was perfectly prepared. Ingredients were of the highest quality, so fresh and well seasoned. Salad with dates and goat cheese was delicious. Prosciutto and burrata amazing. The pesto pasta was a dream. The seafood ravioli was divine. The pork and sausage stuffed pasta was savory and flavorful. Drinks and wine were excellent - if a bit over priced. And the service friendly and attentive. The panna cotta was a perfect finale. So many other fabulous looking desserts, but we were too full to try anything else...next time. We appreciate the attention to acoustics as we were able to have a conversation - even as the tables around us filled - due to the sound absorbing ceiling. Not a small thing.

By far my favorite restaurant in Los Angeles and it didn’t disappoint once again! My visiting mother from Florida thoroughly enjoyed it and the food, service, and ambience could not have been any better, especially for a Christmas Eve dinner. Great value for the quality!
