MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Break out your velvet smoking jacket and glide past the speakeasy-style pawn shop stocked with eye-catching items before heading upstairs to this A-lister lounge and ballroom-esque dining room, featuring dramatic chandeliers. With original outposts in New York and Las Vegas, this Hollywood beauty attracts a moneyed crowd that comes for glitter, glam and a bite or two. The staff is as cool and stylish as the décor and clientele.
The share-worthy menu runs the gamut from raw bar selections (oysters, ceviches) to tomato tartare toast points. Take your eyes off the crowd for a moment to nosh on lollipop sprouts or chile relleno empanadas. Tandoori-spiced chicken served fanned over curried cauliflower with romesco illustrates the kitchen’s global skills.
