We needed a place near Descanso Gardens to have dinner, and settled on this one, partly because of the name. We were surprised at how nice it was, considering its location in a strip mall. Ambience was cozy, though the AC was set for mid-summer, and I shivered throughout the meal. The food was tasty and well-presented, if somewhat overpriced, especially the Bruschetta Grilled Chicken (just a small chicken breast topped with a tomato salsa and a pile of arugula on the side) for $28. I requested Caesar salad instead of arugula, and was upcharged $2! But it was delicious, and the service was fantastic. It's quite a distance from us, so we probably won't go there again unless we have another reason to be in the area.

First time for us at Proper, the photos and previous reviews had won us over. Highlights; service was very solid and atmosphere was as the photos led on, very nice. The food; caesar salad, deviled eggs to start - both okay, but lacking any "oh these are good" moments. Entrees - chicken paccata and salmon - too much butter and again, okay, but no, "oh my this is good" bites. The misc; music was in/out and not really heard from our seat making it eerily quiet at times when the music wasn't on. Overall a 3.5 experience.
