Amazing experience! Food was unique but amazing. Server Garland (I forgot his name so excuse my mistake) was amazing and the sweetest ever. Quick and friendly service. 10/10 would go back.

Went during DineLa and had a pretty bad experience. I only really liked one of the 8 dishes I tried. The focaccia was raw on the bottom half, and dishes were either overly salted or not at all. Service was pretty bad too. Had to ask for water twice before I gave up and just drank bottled water I had. They ran out of the dessert on the fixed menu and I really did not like the panna cotta option provided. Maybe it's better outside of the week we went but for $100 per person, I will definitely not be coming back.

Beautiful restaurant. Live music was a nice touch. Drinks were good but small. Service was extremely slow. Had to flag down the waiter for everything. Wanted more drinks but was tired of flagging down the waiter. Food was below average. Focaccia was nothing special. Felt like a giant crouton with a soft center. Persimmon salad had 3 thumbnail size squares and 2 slices of persimmon. Is this even half a persimmon? Pasta dishes were meh. Nothing I couldn’t have made myself. Expensive below average dinner. Stopped at in-n-out on the way home.

A very nice atmosphere that seemed just right for an elegant, fancy but not stuffy or pompous dinner. The restrooms were very clean & had a unique factor of being in an old vault- definitely a photo op! We went for the Dine LA, 4 course menu to help with the Wildfire event. All the food was delicious and service was attentive but not overly so. Definitely would recommend for a future visit but would recommend ride share or pay for the valet due to the surrounding area.

Food was exceptional. Service was friendly, but a little slow. Attention to detail on the service side was lacking just a bit, but our server was super friendly. I would definitely come back.
