Culver City, Los Angeles · restaurant
The room looks like a Santorini grotto reimagined by Fellini's production designer. White undulating plaster walls, custom scallop-shell seafood towers arriving at your table like theatrical props. The caviar slider is the menu's most audacious move, but the uni pasta loaded with crab and seasonal oysters from PEI are why regulars book a week ahead.
Warm roll, creme fraiche, chives, and a generous scoop of caviar. Ridiculous and worth it.
Twirled yellowtail with sour cherries and seasonal fruit — delicate and precise.
Custom scallop-shell glass tower loaded with oysters, shrimp, uni, crab legs. The move.
