They have a new menu because of a new chef. But don't be afraid! The food is outstanding now. Before was perfect and now is amazing
Where Los Angeles MagazineAugust 27, 2011Featured in WhereLA.com's "Where to Brunch in LA." Chef Albert Avile offers “Breakfast” for dessert: cinnamon brioche muffin, drizzled w/rum caramel sauce & topped with vanilla whipped cream & bacon. Read more
BernyAugust 12, 2010Cheese dishes are tasteless. I recommend: white bean purée, which has a slight garlic flavor, and pork bruschetta, which is spicy and juicy. Oh the corn roasted and pesea soup is good too!
S. WilliamsOctober 8, 2010The banana bread pudding is well worth the wait. Spoiler alert: the cayenne pepper can't be tasted, but then it kicks in the burn a few seconds later for an awesome dessert experience.
Gabrielle OrtegaJuly 26, 2011Wine selection is out of this world! Ask server for recommendation- they are extremely knowledgeable. Also the pork belly sliders are a must have!

Gabriel RamugliaOctober 10, 2010the bread pudding and the mac and cheese are both really good. if you can't decide on a wine, ask about a flight of wine.
Geneva OverholserMay 29, 2010Go to Corkbar and tell the unbelievably knowledgeable waitstaff what kind of wine you like -- then ask them to introduce you to something new. they're the best!
