    This is food that is filled with passion and heart. Every little detail is thought about and made better. For example, we ordered oysters which were from Prince Edward Island that night. Absolutely sweet and delectable. But Chef Charles elevated the cocktail sauce to one of the best versions I have ever had. Every bite that night made me swoon. Inventive, creative using Japanese flavors and French techniques to give us an amazing dining experience. In addition, the service staff is warm and delightful and the restaurant is comfy and homey. I love Charles Namba's cooking at Tsubaki but Camelia is a dream come true for him and for us who get to eat his inspired food

    Perch LA has been around for a long time. This was the first time we had dinner there. I didn’t know what to expect. It was outstanding. Ambience :  beautiful views of downtown LA. We sat outside , which I I recommend. They have heaters, but you should still wear warm clothes to be comfortable . The inside is dark, old and looks rundown. The inside needs upgrading. We had Chilean Seabass , which was outstanding. We don’t like risotto.(I think that’s what it comes with) so we substituted it with mixed vegetables. Amazing. We also had a great lettuce salad, and truffle cheese fries. Yum Yum. This was plenty of food for two people to share. And, delicious ice cream with coffee. Great service. Thank you .

    Outstanding food and service. Steak frites were delicious and the beef was so tender. The trout almondine was perfectly prepared — buttery delicate with crispy skin. The only complaint is the martini is small and pricey at $23.50.

    Had a wonderful time celebrating my partner's birthday. The food was delicious, the service was great, and the restaurant's ambiance was perfect. We loved the location and the decorations, it's a beautiful restaurant, it reminded me of old L.A. We will definitely be coming back for more.

    The food was outstanding and the service was excellent. There are so many "fancy" restaurants in Los Angeles where the food is disappointing, but this was not one of them. Having known about Republique for many years and seeing it on many "best" lists I was prepared to be disappointed, but it met my expectations. My parents and I were very pleased with our meal, the service, and the ambience which is beautiful. It qualifies as one of the best restaurants we've eaten at in Los Angeles, and is deserving of its designation as one of LA's top restaurants.
