I too went to the dineLA event last week and was happy with the menu we were given... the service was another issue. When we got there we were promptly seated, however, they placed my party in this awful brown room with only one of the three lanterns working. The ambience was awful and it felt like we were in someone's basement. The front room looked really nice and I think I would have enjoyed my time more I had I been placed there. Our busboy was great b/c our drinks were always being refreshed, however, we saw our waitress maybe every 35-45 minutes only to drop off food, not to see if we needed anything. For the first course I had the warm mushroom salad with manchego cheese. It was light and quite good with a hint of pepper. The second dish was the salmon served with a berry risotto. The salmon was nothing special, however, the risotto was interesting in a good way- very creamy, a little tangy, but delicious. My friend had a steak and said it was seasoned and cooked well. For dessert we had the bread pudding- not a big fan of this dish. It was too egg-y and heavy. There wasn't anything with it to compliment the heaviness and the cream didn't do much. Overall, a decent three course meal, but not enough to leave an impression.
Pros: Risotto and salad
Cons: Dessert, ambience, and service
