What People Are Saying About AKASHA

In Short – Like moths to a flame, celebs, artists and foodies are rushing to make this eco-friendly haunt the hottest spot in Culver City. Just try to get a reservation on a weekend--then ignore Jason Bateman or Alicia Silverstone as you saunter to your acid-washed copper table and hemp banquette. Owner Akasha Richond (former chef to Barbra Streisand) goes full-throttle with organic and sustainable food, wine and decor--the hot young waiters even wear organic-cotton Levis. Non-vegetarians will enjoy dishes like wild pepper scallops, rustic mushroom tart, and pork chops with sambazon…

STAY AWAY
by BB2008
Dont get me wrong, I am all about organic, locally grown foods. BUT the food here is terrible. I went with 3 other people. The turkey burger tasted like soggy meatloaf. I had the Mung beans and rice which was not only unappealing to look at but also to taste. And my other friend had a pizza. Not only was I unsatisfied with my meal after leaving, I returned home to get violetly ill for 2 days. And so did my friend who ordered the pizza. For your own good, stay away from here.
- Pros: the malbec, if anything
- Cons: THE FOOD
Great ambience, average food
by sole123
Italian prosciutto cannot be cooked! It's a major sin. They'd better remove it from that pizza before thy put it in the oven.
That ruined my experience!
- Pros: crowd, architecture
- Cons: food below espectations
The Details on AKASHA
Where to Sit:
For those without reservations, the long and lively bar--which overlooks the scene--offers 30 wines by the glass ($9 to $18), and serves the full menu. The patio seating on Culver is lovely for al fresco dining and preening, especially in nice weather.
What to Drink:
Artisan boutique wines from small estates form a medium-sized wine list that focuses on organic and biodynamic producers. Corkage is $25. House cocktails feature fresh juices and organic spirits like Juniper organic gin and small batch tequila.
The Extras:
The smaller side of the restaurant houses the bakery counter and satiny teak communal tables, where you can get fair trade coffee and organic teas along with a wide array of organic baked goods including lemon bars, apple tart, carrot cake and assorted cupcakes.
