This classic French restaurant has long been a favorite for Beverly Hills' quiet elite. During the day, ladies lunch on exquisite salads and discuss charity events, and at night, refined couples dress up to dine on chef Jean François Meteigner’s haute cuisine. The elegant dining room is awash in peach and gold hues and features whitewashed walls, floral upholstery, and a nice view above the bustling street. Caviar, foie gras, duck confit, farm-raised squab—the menu reads like a gourmand's dream. And vegans will be delighted to find suitable dishes on the regular menu, as well as a weekly tasting menu. The restaurant is located in a secluded Century City location yet close to upscale hotels, entertainment, and the Century City Mall.
