Michelin-starred Patina has enjoyed a coveted spot under a stainless-steel sail of Walt Disney Concert Hall for over a decade. It’s an understated elegance paired with meticulous attention to detail that makes this restaurant unique. Executive chef Paul Lee serves modern interpretations of French classics, available only on a three-, five- or eight-course tasting menu, set by the chef. Signature seasonal dishes include 63°C duck egg, poached Maine lobster and beef tenderloin. The impeccable service, outstanding food, proximity to LA’s cultural scene (Museum of Contemporary Art, Music Centre and The Broad Museum), and a 1,000-bottle wine list make this dining experience unforgettable. The tableside cheese cart, with its offering of 30+ cheeses, from Appenzeller to Valencay Frais Cendré, is a rare treat. Open for dinner Tuesday through Sunday from 5:00pm to 9:30pm, with post-theatre dining on LA Philharmonic performance nights. Check on their summer closure dates.
