From the OpenTable editors: Providence is the restaurant that seafood dreams and celebratory dinners are made of: James Beard Award-winning chef Michael Cimarusti puts sustainability front and center for his two-MICHELIN-Starred tasting menus featuring the likes of Santa Barbara spot prawns, Golden Kaluga caviar, and Columbia River king salmon. Expect excellent wine pairings, white tablecloths, and exceptional service that doesn’t feel stuffy—just the way LA fine dining should be.

    The food is good, and the service is good. The restaurant must’ve been greedy to cram in so many tables, and there are trashy people dining next to us who are very loud and talking about brothels..

    The most stand out point at our visit was the restaurant's impeccable service. They were very meticulous in creating a pregnancy friendly meal for me and explaining each component of my substitutions during the meal. When asked how each course was prepared, they responded with detailed answers. One suggestion I would make is to have the host/hostess offer suggestions on which entree to choose for a special diet customer. I did have to proactively ask about how the wagyu & duck entrees were normally cooked as I assumed they are served medium rare (too undercooked for a pregnant woman). However, they did kindly offer to cook them well done for me when I asked. Other than that, I fully enjoyed majority of the courses. The only course I didn't enjoy was the silken tofu substitute for the sashimi course. I felt the pickled component overpowered the delicate tofu and threw the dish off balance. My husband absolutely enjoyed the dessert courses especially the chocolate petit fours.

    Everything was wonderful and amazing. It was truly an experience, with every detail planned out, from the menu highlighting details of any personal celebration, to the description of the food, to the taste of it all and the visual beauty. The restaurant staff from the server, the bussers, the hosts, the bartender, and sommelier. Praises are not enough for them all, because they truly watched and cared for everything that was being presented in front of us. It really was a beautiful memory to have made at this restaurant.

    The atmosphere here is calm and cold. The servers are stiff and lack smiles; everyone seems to have a neutral expression. The speed at which the food arrives is good, and the quality of the food is excellent.
