I’m with someone’s daughter right now too.
Blonde and easily bribed by chocolates, fast car and a platinum card.
Get outta here Hollywood boy :-), you’re ruining my thread!
Boo Yah!
Morning.
Take her to Lucques in Beverly Hills for brunch/lunch. I recommend the patio and whatever specialty drink they are serving. It’s different every month and better than simple Mimosa.
relaxed atmosphere, just really terrific food with great service.
The wait staff have all the knowledge you require about anything on the menu but, a soft touch about it. They’re not snobs and won’t drone on.
They are also accomodating about special requests.
Food is wonderful and plated so as to invite the eyes to take it in just before you your mouth savors whatever is delish.
Won’t weigh you down and of course it’s a Susan Goin restaurant, so how could you go wrong.
Here is a quick link to the view as you walk up, view in and then the patio:

second table in, against the wall, is generally I like to sit. You can take in the people, environment and not be smothered or off in a distant corner.
Or take her to Aroma’s on Sunset.
Don’t go to “Pump” in West Hollywood.
It is only a destination restaurant because of it’s location and the draw of the owners notoriety.
Loved the patio but, other than that the service was not particularly snappy and one of the owners was there. Nice guy.
Food wasn’t anything interesting. The tuna tartare was an old recipe but, just not executed well.
Go if you want to knock it off your list but, there are way better restaurants within 10 minutes.
Still, it was fun but, not going to be my first choice.
