Brentwood-Westwood, Los Angeles · restaurant
Tucked into a 1930s brick corner of Westwood Village, Violet channels a relaxed Provence courtyard. String lights, a marble bar, ivy, and a fountain humming on the patio. The Salade Mizou and Steak au Poivre are the reason locals keep returning, while the mood shifts easily from UCLA lunch crowd to low-lit date night. Cali-French without the performance art.
Pasture-raised hanger steak, crispy frites, and choice of sauce. A popular bistro classic.
Crispy-skinned duck leg confit, a French bistro classic in Westwood Village.
Housemade mustard, gem lettuce, caramelized onion fondue, spicy dill pickles, sesame brioche bun
