Such a hidden gem. From the street, the restaurant is very unassuming. You walk down a long outdoor walkway into a gorgeous patio with lots of garden lighting. Definitely try to sit outside and you’ll enjoy the ambiance whether you are on a date or just hanging out with friends.
Everything on the menu sounded delicious but since we couldn’t order everything especially since there were only 2 of us, we chose something from each main category.
Appetizer: squid ink calamari - its squid ink so doesn’t always photograph well. Each bite was flavorful with a great crunch and not oily at all.
Vegetables: Brussels sprouts- crispy and tasty
Pasta- homemade Cavatelli. Truffle shaved at your table over the pasta. Pasta cooked perfectly and wasn’t overly heavy. I could eat this over and over.
Entree- We shared the special which was a 14oz bone in filet with truffle butter melted table side. Steak cooked perfectly and omg the truffle butter added another level of goodness.
Dessert - chocolate dome - melted table side. This was a chocolate lovers dream. A little too sweet for me but presentation was gorgeous.
The flow of the meal was great. Allowed us to enjoy every dish without being overstuffed. Wait staff was very attentive and friendly.
Can’t wait to go back.
This place is great. The wine choices are top shelf. The bone in Filet melts and is so full of flavor. I highly recommend the wagyu meatballs and the chocolate soufflé to top a perfect experience. Service was also excellent.
Managed to book the night before while visiting Santa Monica and it was a meal to remember. Excellent service and the atmosphere immediately drew us in. Each course was excellent and the wine pairing suggested by the sommelier was perfect. Would highly recommend.
Nothing short of spectacular. Beautifully curated menu and excellent service. Special thanks to Rick for his wonderful hospitality!
Wow!!! Best dining experience. Everything was beyond exceptional. The vibes were immaculate. The service was top notch. The food was perfect. The toffee pudding was the best dessert I've ever had. Compliments to the chef! He has a great staff and passion and it shows!
