Not sure how they can do that in 2026, but it did reinforce the "old Hollywood" vibe. There used to be a dress code and technically there still is, but I thought I saw people in shorts (or at least very casually dressed). Food (seafood risotto and chicken pot pie) was good, but a little bland. Debated getting a steak - and I'm sure it would've been good - but the risotto was half the price! Dessert was their signature sundae with bananas and brittle. I thought it was great. Dear Wife was less enthusiastic. I'm grateful to be able to bask in a century's worth of history for a night.

My wife and I came here for the DineLA event and were blown away. The chef, Dominique Cren, is a…read moreThree Star Michelin chef for her restaurant in San Francisco and our experience at her L.A. restaurant is every bit as good. I met Dominique many years ago working at a L.A. based country club and fond her to be very gracious and thoughtful. So happy to see that she has fully come into her own. It's located in the Christian Dior atelier on Rodeo drive so good luck finding parking other than valet. In any event the entrance is beautiful and when you arrive via elevator you are treated to a beautiful open air concept carefully curated with both indoor and outdoor seating. The restaurant was packed: side note that throughout our two foray of DineLA fine dining we were amazed by the number of Asian tourists at these restaurants. At M. Dior almost EVERY table was occupied by Asian tourists. Just an observation and not a racial profiling. Our server was very engaging and we chose the $95 three course prix fixe menu and I opted for the $75 wine pairing (which was not particularly memorable). We started with an amuse bouche of Tomato Water Meringue and sour dough bread. The amuse was fine but the bread and butter (with tiny violet pedals sprinkled on the butter) was amazing: so much so that we asked for a second helping. The first course was a tomato Rosette and a Rockfish Tartare. The tomato rosette was delicate, very flavorful and beautifully prepared (whipped feta and nectarine "sambal"). The rockfish tartare was good but, generally speaking (and this was the second time in a week that we experienced a rockfish preparation) the fish is rather tasteless. with grapes, carrot and shallot XO. But the star of the night were the entrees: Potato Agnolotti and Beef Cheek. The Potato Agnolotti which appeared like a version of gnocchi, came in a lovely mussel sauce. The beef cheek was slow roasted for 50 hours and served with a fish sauce caramel (Umami?), broccolini and bone marrow. It too was fabulous. Dessert consisted of a chocolate cannage, a pillow-like presentation that was both delicate and rich, on a bed of cherry confiture. The strawberry sorbet was refreshing served with St. Germain and strawberry jus. Truly a memorable evening. One other side note: the portions were rather small but we attributed that to the fact that it was a tasting menu. We did see some a la carte dishes go by that looked more substantial.

I'd been wanting to try Dominique Crenn's new restaurant forever and dine LA week was the perfect…read moreexcuse. I'm excited to report that it lives up to the hype and is very worth the splurge! Valet parking is $25 for the first four hours, just so you know. (And all the guys that park the cars are hot and built like brick houses!) Worthy investment. Granted, the Dine LA menu is priced at $95 per person (before taxes, tip and the 4% health charge), however the fascinating flavors and the advanced cooking techniques used to produce them justify the charge. While we ordered the Dine LA menu, we had to ask permission from the chef to order from the à la carte menu (to satisfy our curiosity). We were thankfully accommodated. The tuna violet bouquet was as delicious as it was beautiful. I thought it was going to taste like your typical tuna tartare, but it didn't. It was elevated in a way I can't even explain. The portion is tiny - just enough for one person but it's one of those dishes you won't ever forget. The same went for the black truffle agnolotti. So unique. It had all sorts of textures and flavors dancing on the tongue - crunchiness, then softness (the pasta) and then umami from the mushroom broth. The broth is clarified with parmesan! How does one even do that? I couldn't get enough of it. I slurped every bit and didn't care. Chef Crenn's expertise is flexed all throughout the meal. They apparently braise the beef for over 50 hours and while they explained more of it I couldn't pay attention because the mushroom maitake purée distracted me. It was just out of this world. A little salty but I loved it. Hubby ordered the potato agnolotti which had a delicious creamy sauce - well-balanced. Ugh so good. The chocolate cannage was filled with a thick mousse and a tart cherry compote that cut through all that richness. I ate this very slowly because I didn't want the meal to end. The other dessert option was just ok in my opinion - a small strawberry sorbet. This entire meal was a sensory delight from start to finish. Every single thing was gorgeous and delicious and aromatic. It wasn't just the food that was so pleasing to behold, but also the chairs, the silverware, dishware and every single thing you could see. Christian Dior earned my respect all over again. The whole dining concept was thoughtfully curated and masterfully executed. It's one of my new favorite restaurants for sure! And I can't wait to return.

The plush loveseats and faint music are enough to put you to sleep after dinner. That being said dinner was magical not only is their tomato soup an excellent match with their garlic broccolini flat bread but the scallops were very well done and have an amazing flavor. The 8ounce steak was ordered medium rare and was extremely tender and flavorful the tagliatelle bolognese was creamy and came with great fresh herbs on top. The drinks were also amazing the blackberry mocktail and especially the blackberry vodka cocktail that cocktail is enough to have you swimming in the hotel pool.

These ones in particular were plated and served so well ( they use blue corn tortilla: top-notch ingredient) and the ingredients were fresh, but maybe it was the type of fish? I don't really know, they were good, but I definitely would not order them again). Also, my friend had a coconut cold brew which he really enjoyed. Service was all around great. Ambiance was fantastic, the whole restaurant has a very upscale, chic vibe while also being unique in its own way. Even the restroom, that was super clean and well-maintained, has a very unique and interesting setup for what is the sink. All around great place, highly recommended. 10/10.

She regretted offering me a bite...... And the owner served us himself. Warm, and present, the kind of host who tells you about a dish because he's proud of it, not because it's a script.

This is a very sharp looking bar/restaurant located technically on Sunset Boulevard, but if you…read moreblink, you may miss it. It is tucked just off of Sunset and, sadly, it is easy to miss. I have probably driven by it a hundred times or more without seeing it. Thankfully, I know where it is now and, even better, they have a few dedicated parking spaces behind the restaurant, but good luck with the extremely finicky pay machine. Who knew that "electric owls" were nighttime train conductors? Well, now you know. The train theme is carried through the decor of the restaurant and apparently, this is the site of an old train station. My Sunset Sour was a very nice whiskey sour. They have six nonalcoholic cocktail (mocktail) options, which was impressive. The Grill Daddy Burger (with bacon, cheese, BBQ sauce, and more) was very nice. They were offering fries with crab during our visit and they sounded decadent. Under other circumstances, we would have tried them but couldn't do so this time around. You can hang at the bar, on the outside bar patio, or inside the very cool-looking interior restaurant area. Think 1920s decor, literally 100 years ago, but still awesome today. This is a very nice spot for cocktails, mocktails, and well-made upscale bar food.
