   This is the perfect pre-matinee or post-show place to go! The rooftop was charming. The service was superb. The food was fabulous. I can’t rave enough about it. Highly recommend.

   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 !

   Brussel sprout starter & Burrata starter: perfect. Life Gives You Lemons cocktail: Perfect. Lemon Pasta: Perfect. The outdoor, plant-plentiful setting was perfect for a date night.

   Food was disappointingly hit and miss: Caesar was good, bone marrow had not enough bread and a pile of s&p ground so fine it was impossible to eat. Duck confit was good, but the $64 steak was horrible: chewy, no fat cap or marbling whatsoever, and ordered med rare but was overcooked to med well. Was the steak grass fed? Maybe choice grade? So chewy and dry!!! I don’t know what was the deal with it because the servers didn’t know ANYTHING. Bearnaise was so broken we couldn’t find it on the plate until finally we deduced that sad puddle of grease under the dry steak was supposed to be bearnaise. I was freezing the whole time but the blanket and heat lamp the server promised to bring never materialized. No follow up from server. Desserts looked horrible on the menu so we didn’t order one. Oh and my partner’s cocktail was a train wreck of bitter, sour flavors. So sad!
