First Anniversary well done. The service is always the best we’ve ever had from LA to Paris. The food was cooked to perfection, we both got the Ribeye Medium Rare and it was exquisite. They sat us in the Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio table, never a bad experience at Musso and Franks and can’t wait to come back.
