Some good foodie places in LA, in my opinion
Best modern Italian-fusion restaurant but a little pricey in my opinion. Their food is crafted very carefully with a modern touch, you can see them working hard in the kitchen. Almost everything on the menu is good even the salads were good. Reservation is required otherwise the wait is very long and you may not get lucky enough to eat here.
