Best Pre-Theater Restaurants in Elysian Valley

This gem of a Restaurant has the most unique and beautiful salt water aquarium I’ve ever seen. Unique because it’s located on the restaurant’s ceiling. Also the bottom of the aquarium had several domes to give a fish eye view of the beautiful fish. Pausing underneath the aquarium and gazing into the transparent dome of glass, I felt like a fish gazing at my friends under the sea. We ordered whatever our heart’s desired and there happened to be an absolutely lovely jazz trio there to entertain and delight. I felt Blessed beyond Measure

We came here for my sister’s birthday. A great location close to Pantages Theater where we watched a”Wicked “, just a short walk. Amazing views on the rooftop.of the Hollywood sign and the iconic Capitol Records building. Loved all the twinkling lights and low lights in dining room creating an intimate ambiance. The Signature Lemon Pasta and Lemon Cocktail was delicious. The service was outstanding and the server paced everything well. We will definitely return to this restaurant !

Excellent dinner! Dining room seemed a bit loud so we sat outside where there were large heaters and blankets were offered (not needed). The food and service were top notch. Expect to pay over $100 per person but well worth it

The space is dark, food is remarkable and service is top notch. We had quite a few dishes including the crispy Brussels sprouts, sashimi moriawase, New York strip and short ribs. All were delicious. The evening we went, they had special cocktails celebrating the Wicked production at the Pantages across the street. Our celebrant had the Glinda, which was a very fun tasting drink - strawberry, Prosecco mix.

This was an amazing experience with outstanding food, service, and ambiance. I will be going back and taking more people with me!
