Providence

If it's not the best restaurant in the LA area, it's in the top 3-5. Been coming here for really specialy occiasions over the last 10+ years. As a seafood lover, it's hands down my favorite restaurant in the LA area. Service: Friendly, extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and unpretentious, exactly what you would expect from a 2-3 Michelin star restaurant. Drinks were fantastic as you would expect. I tend to opt for beer and Providence consistently has had small brewery interesting and delicious beers. Amuse-bouche - 4 bite size preparation with nice textural elements, and nice flavors. Lots of preparations of seafood which were outstanding, the intersection of extremely high quality seafood, perfectly prepared or raw, in fantastic tasting sauces. Exactly what you would expect in a 3 Michelin star restaurant, absolutely perfectly done with interesting textures and tastes. We opted for the Prawns, which were an addtion. Came with a cool show as they came encrusted with salt and cut tableside. Absolutely amazing, sweet and delicious with nothing more than a bit of salt and lemon. Bread- Red Fife Sourdough- House made and delicious, i liked the story that came with it, and the butter of course... the butter! Some interesting preparations of chocolate including a chocolate tea. They were good but I would say the dessert was the least memorable part of the meal. Highly recommend if you are in the area and if it's in your budget!

WOW OMG WOW OMG WOW OMG WOW !!! From the moment we entered this outstanding restaurant we were captivated by caring staff, zen like ambiance & some of the best food in the world. Superlatives would spring forth with every bite taken into each & every dish we consumed. We were truely amazed & full of gratitude. Having been fortunate over the decades to have eaten in some of the world’s best restaurants, this restaurant was a highly successful stand out of pure perfection on a plate, from preparation to presentation. Our celebratory evening with our son was a truely memorable event thanks to all the staff involved. We normally don’t take photos at restaurants but felt compelled on this occasion to capture the sensational attention to detail in every serving. Finally, to be invited back of house into the kitchen to meet with the head chef & legion of staff preparing our food & to be able to provide them first hand with the praise they richly deserve was also a privilege. . THANK YOU ALL FOR CREATING MEMORIES TO LAST A LIFETIME !!

Certainly one of the best restaurant experiences in Los Angeles. The food ambience , service , wine list is everything you'd expect for my Michelin three star restaurant. Bravo !

It was great for the most part. Some of the dishes didnt hit right. The steak for all its hype was kind of a disappointment. I think a ribeye from mastros or novikov or even Ruth Chris is far more delicious without any exotic drunken cattle fondling.

We recently dined at Providence in LA for a friend’s birthday, and it was truly an outstanding experience. The food was absolutely amazing — each dish was beautifully presented and delivered incredible flavors that exceeded our expectations. The level of creativity and attention to detail in every course was top notch. The staff and waiters were also exceptional: professional, attentive, and knowledgeable, which made the entire evening feel special and seamless. Overall, this was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in Los Angeles. I would definitely go back and recommend Providence to anyone looking for a memorable fine dining experience.

Came from Vancouver, BC to try their menu. It definitely deserves a 3-stars. The restaurant has a very relaxed and elegant atmosphere, the background music has the right volume and good album that improve your appetite. Staffs are very friendly and welcoming. Great items on the menu, every dish is a highlight. Great job!

I had a great dining experience at Providence. The seafood was amazing. They showcase the best of California. I enjoyed the abalone, scallop, spotted prawns, and mango dessert. The wine list is impressive. The electric margarita is delicious. Service is attentive.
