    This was my first time at Beauty for dinner. Unfortunately it was the last day for the LA location. Everything we ordered was delicious. There was nothing I would not order again! Our server was Nicole. She was super friendly and helpful with our menu recommendations. She was excellent!

    Oh, where do I begin? In a comedy of errors, my date and I were ridiculously late for our reservation. So late, in fact, we decided to morph from expected guests into spontaneous walk-ins to dodge the red-faced moment of truth. And guess what? We were whisked away to our seats on the enchanting outdoor patio faster than you can say "fashionably late." From the get-go, the evening was nothing short of magical. I'm not one to wax lyrical over every dining experience, but this place? It's like they sprinkled a little bit of fairy dust over everything. Oh, the food! Each dish was a masterpiece, crafted with such care it felt like we were eating art. Though my memory's a bit fuzzy on all the details (it's been a month, forgive me!), the vivid memory of devouring those lamb chops sticks out - tender, flavorful, and oh-so-recommendable! Now, let's talk vibes - because they were impeccable. The kind of ambiance where you feel like the star of your own movie, wrapped in a cocoon of perfect lighting and soft laughter. Ideal for our little celebratory date night. And our waiter - bless his busy soul - was the epitome of attentiveness. He navigated our needs with the grace of a ballet dancer, ensuring our glasses were never empty (speaking of which, the Beauty Elixir? A dream for someone that doesn't even like alcohol!). In a nutshell, if you're seeking a spot that turns late arrivals into unforgettable evenings, this is your go-to. Can't remember all the details of what we ate, but I do remember one thing: it was an experience worth every single star I'm giving. Cheers to more accidental walk-ins and fun nights out!

    I had a great time here! Zach and Chris were the primary people who helped us out and they were awesome, so shout outs to them! This place was delicious. I had been given a gift card here for Christmas so was excited to try it. They pitch the restaurant as family style, so you should order a bunch of plates to share. That being said, the portions were never too big and so we got to try a lot of different bites. Little French Dips were so good, with super tender roast beef and delicious au jus that wasn't too salty. It had just the right zip of horseradish for someone who isn't a huge fan. The grilled cheese and tomato soup dumplings are so worth buying and really successful. There are smokey bits of bacon and a smooth cheese blend inside the dumpling that pairs perfectly with the smooth tomato soup. The street corn ravioli was so surprising! Perfect balance of lime to cheese to corn flavor -- would absolutely buy again. The steak was cooked well and came with delicious sides and no overpowering crust. Had the berry chantilly cake and the peanut butter cake for dessert. The peanut butter cake was massive but not too rich -- the perfect balance and the berry chantilly cake was warm and delicious with flavorful berry compote. The restaurant was a little dark but the music was at the perfect volume. I loved the general vibe/ambiance and look forward to coming back again!
