What do you get when an alien space ship arrives on planet Earth, takes a slice of your eccentric aunt's 17th century French chateau and plops it in the middle of Sunset Boulevard? Enter this corner compound--the "social dining" experiment from L.A. nightlife impresario Sam Nazarian, chef celebre Michael Mina and uber-designer Philippe Starck--and you'll soon find out. But nevermind the five fireplaces in a row, the repetitive reflection of the mirrored walls, the faux fur throws strewn across the leather settees or the metallic sheath of the glowing rectangular bar and open kitchen. No, here,…

Lot's of Hollywood’s finest to see here! The good ,bad, but God knows never ugly! Drinks were strong, service was great because we met a guy named Jack who is a promoter. He hooked us up all night!

Xiv happy hour
by CSMobileUser at Citysearch
Lovely staff, however i'm a 118 llb only social drinker & after 4 martinis, barely a buzz. Yes there's a discount during happy hour but obviously they discount their pours.

Great decor, yummy desserts.

There's so much to keep your mind busy it could be hard to focus on the food. The decor resembles a french cheateu, adorned with modern art, and I loved it. Not to mention book shelves, lined with photographs and of course, books.
However the savory menu items were nothing special. Good, but didn't make me feel like I was experiencing something unique. It was a good dinner none the less.
THEN, dessert came. This pastry chef, is an artist...for two senses that matter most when it comes to food, the visual sense, and taste.
I would recommend this restaurant, a good place for a date or to show off to someone. SAVE ROOM FOR DESSERT!
- Pros: Desserts, decor, bar.
- Cons: Dinner entrees were so-so.
