Capo

A nook and cranny in Santa Monica along the shoreline close enough to feel the sea mist and hear the waves crashing about the sand. A bewilderment of fire glazes the meat to a melting pot, melt in your mouth sensation warming guests hearts in the tiny room all the while accentuating the priceless artwork draped around the walls and windowsills. It’s more or less a hole-in-the-wall as far as restaurants go. Make no mistake about it though; the ratatouille had me in tears when I left. I could taste every aspect of the seasoning and it made me daydream about what they could be {thyme, oregano, fresh basil, marjoram, Himalayan salt, fresh ground pepper, so on and so forth} The people were decked out in fancy attire. The conversations elevated the mood into an invigorating atmosphere in close-quarters-is the menu item recommended, does it trouble you to serve two helpings of the dish, can the cuisine be prepared at a certain temperature with precise attention to crisping the edges? At the end of the day eye-catching silhouettes created a mesmerizing realm to find elements of the menu that jumped off the page to land in perfectly rationed fine dinnerware. A prime example of that was the crab cake. It was so crunchy on the perimeter yet buttery, soft, sweet, and zesty within each bite. It was a picture perfect segway and transition for the pasta. I ate every morsel as fast as possible and left abruptly as the dessert was being served. I wanted to make sure I tipped and excused myself for two reasons. I negotiated my way into a bar stool to accompany the patrons with a meal without a prior reservation. Also, I was so pleasantly satisfied with the meal that was outlined in the aforementioned menu. Furthermore, I had run a small tab, because I did not order any of the gem quality wines to taste. Rather, I had ginger soda and I desired to exit as whimsically as I had entered with the contingent notion that I would allow enough time for the scheduled party to take my place. All-in-all this Italian wrinkle in time gave me goosebumps.

Best service I’ve ever experienced in Los Angeles. Felt right at home the moment we were seated. My partner and I split 3 pastas. Conveniently separated and brought out one at a time. Wonderful.

We visited this place for breakfast on Friday morning. Short walk from JW Marriott. Wait was 10mins. We ordered omelettes and pancakes for kids. Great food. We ordered freshly squeezed Orange and grapefruit juices as well. We will be back for breakfast again.

Soo good I wanted to stuff myself like it was Thanksgiving dinner.. but we tried the margaritas and mimosas. With the Carnitas tacos with a order of Rice the meat had a little crunch to it which was epic definitely would recommend to anyone service was exceptional fast friendly

extraordinary in every respect, including the out-of-this-world meal that is prepared and presented to patrons of the establishment. Our hostess' in-depth presentation of the surrounding area and her attentiveness throughout the meal were two aspects that really stood out to us. There was not a single aspect of the restaurant's food preparation that did not meet the most stringent criteria available.
