Simply stunning experience. Every meal and cocktail is a balanced masterpiece, and the service is expert. Elliot made our meal flow perfectly with memorable recommendations and graceful patience with our pickiness on wine temperature. Highly recommend, will be telling all my friends and coming back!

Came here to celebrate a friend's birthday and made a reservation online. The team was very efficient and even laid out a special ribbon on the table for us.
The staff was helpful with drink suggestions and made sure to cross check all the allergies that one of our party had with the dishes, and made sure to mark it clearly on his menu, which was helpful.
The drinks were slightly Asian influenced, and I got something off of their Tiki-inspired menu. All the drinks were delicious albeit ice heavy.
I think our favorite dish collectively was the uni panna cota. It was savory, but also sweet and slightly tart. A flavor bomb for sure.
The low point was definitely the ribeye, which ended up being the most expensive dish. The black pepper sauce was very delicious, slightly reminiscent of HK style black pepper beef cubes. The entire party agreed that the thick cut slices were also very satisfying.
The glaring issue really was with the beef quality and cook. First off, the rib-eye toeing the fine line between being super crusted and burnt. However, the big kicker was a huge tendon running through 85% of the pieces. It was already difficult enough for the steak knife provided to attempt to break through the tendon; with all four of us sawing, the table kept violently rocking back and forth and a glass almost fell over. Even if we somehow managed to cut through (which we mostly didn't), even swallowing was difficult. I chewed and chewed each to try to break it down more, but all that happened was that it turned into meat gum, and I was forced to try to swallow the bolus whole. I'm sure my companions had the same issue. For a $130 piece of meat, I feel like we shouldn't having to be going to war to get it down our throats, but that's just me. Not sure if other diners had a similar experience, but I would be wary of ordering this.
This aside, the rest of the dinner was very enjoyable. The staff were attentive without being overbearing, and the other dishes were satisfying. The portions seemed a bit small, but we were extremely stuffed by the end of the me and enjoyed the other dishes very much.
3.5/5 given the sad state of the steak, but rounded to 4 for the overall experience.

Have been going here since they opened and every meal has been amazing. To me this is the essence of where Los Angeles food is heading and it makes me happy.

The place looks nice and the food is well prepared. Menu is very inventive and there is bravery in the way the chef plays with flavours. Prices are quite high but probably in line with the quality and amount of work they put into each dish.
Take 1 star off cause the place is slightly pretentious, has loud music and quite uncomfortable seating.

GO HERE RIGHT NOW IT WILL BE YOUR NEW FAVORITE!!
My cousin and I checked out this place on our birthday trip to LA. This was by far the best meal we ate!
KUMAMOTO OYSTERS : Hibiscus, Ginger, Cassava, Wasabi ** Great texture, bright and tangy!
BURRATA : Yuzu Kosho, Shingiku, Pumpkin Seed, B&G Bread ** Holy burrata this was good. The green sauce was reminiscent of a chimichurri- herbaceous with a bit of spice!
SPROUTED BROCCOLI : Ginger, H.O.P., Seeds, Nuts ** Not gonna lie, when this came out we got a little nervous as it looked like a health food lunch bowl- not what we were looking for. It turned out to be absolutely delicious and we finished every last bit of it!
HERITAGE PORK BELLY : Nam-Jim, Key Lime, Pineapple, Herbs, Shallots ** Pork Belly was crispy and delicious. The pineapple appeared grilled and had some heat to it! The mint, basil, and cilantro on top added a nice freshness to the dish.
ROASTED CHESTNUT MOCHI : Coconut, Muscovado, Halvah ** DELICIOUS GET THIS DO IT JUST GET IT!! Nutty, creamy, and I’ll dream of this forever.
Service was incredible- Personal, Knowledgeable, and made us feel as if we were welcomed into their home. I can’t wait for our next trip back to try whatever incredible things they come up with!

Just found out about this gem. The menu is small but every dish was fantastic and had flavor combinations I never tasted before, which is a real pleasure. Definitely coming back. Reservations are recommended, valet in the back.

So happy they reopened!! Their menu is small but so effective. And the drinks, wow. It’s just as good as I remembered. I’m going to let the photos speak for themselves…

What an amazing culinary experience. This is a hidden gem in K town for sure. We heard that the menu changes every day. If you are looking for parking, there is valet parking behind the building. From the time that you walk into the door to the time you sit down at the table, the staff is very nice. Our waiter was extremely knowledgeable about everything on the menu. The menu may look daunting; however, I assure you the food will be outrageously delicious!!! This little restaurant and bar gets five stars. All of their food and beverages and desserts are made from excellence. The plating and the flavors are of perfection. I am still amazed at everything that we ate. We had fish, veggie options, and delicious dessert. If you are a foodie looking for a culinary amusement park, this is your spot!!!
