WEST Restaurant & Lounge Menu

WEST Restaurant & Lounge Restaurant Review:

Inhabiting a landmark cylindrical tower just off the 405, the stylish, hip Hotel Angeleno, and its penthouse restaurant, WEST, is a welcome dining option in this neighborhood by the Getty Center. A generous use of rich dark wood complements the light earth tones of sleek club chairs and cushy banquettes, most of which provide panoramic city views through floor-to-ceiling windows. The sophisticated space features a lounge on one side of a prominent white marble bar and leisurely dining on the other. The eclectic menu starts off with Creole shrimp, herb-roasted bone marrow and duck confit rillettes. Global influences continue with soy-ginger swordfish, Persian lamb shank and Portuguese fisherman's stew. A five-course chef's tasting menu is also available. Desserts include chocolate cake with a molten center. The wine list spotlights California producers, and there is also a full bar.
