Gwen Butcher Shop & Restaurant is the second restaurant from fine dining chef Curtis Stone (of Maude) and the first he’s opened with his brother Luke Stone. Gwen is both a European-style, chef-driven butcher shop and a restaurant that is redefining dining in LA, with a menu that calls on fire-based cooking techniques. Whether you’re picking up house-made charcuterie, prime and rare breed meats from the retail store, enjoying a feast in the dining room or relaxing with a bite and cocktail at the bar, Gwen delivers the highest standards of quality, taste and service.

On Wednesdays-Sundays, we offer Chef's Carte Blanche 5-course tasting menu for $130 per person (limited quantities available). The whole party must enjoy the tasting menu and wine pairings are available for $75 per person. If you have any questions, please feel free to call the restaurant at 323-946-7500.

    MICHELIN 1 Star

    2023

From the OpenTable editors: Part high-end butcher shop, part steakhouse, Gwen is the brainchild of Curtis Stone and his brother Luke Stone. The MICHELIN-Starred experience is a celebration of all things meat: The dramatic dining room is surrounded by glass-enclosed dry-age rooms and a central fire pit. Expect housemade charcuterie, pasta with bacon Bolognese, and impressive steaks like a 30-day aged Creekstone Farm ribeye.

    This was our first time to Gwen. When we first walked in we were greeted with a smile by the hostess and seated immediately. We enjoyed the upstairs dining room that was quiet and cozy. Jordan or server was attentive, friendly and very knowledgeable answering our questions and giving spot on recommendations. As each course was served the entire service team were friendly and explained what we were about to eat. We started with cocktails and the charcuterie board that awoke our pallettes for what else was to come. We also the loved the sunchokes with black sesame hummus. For our main we ordered the Wagyu flat iron steak, black truffle papadelle, roasted mushrooms and duck fat potatoes. The flavors of our entire meal all went well together leaving us pleased with our choice. We ended our meal with cappuccino and the banoffee pie for dessert. We had the best time and left us excited to return talking about what we would order next time.

    Absolutely fantastic. It was a thanksgiving pre fixe which in past experiences in other restaurants has always been mediocre. This was not the case. Everything was perfect including the wine pairing. Initially, we were bummed it wasn’t the normal menu since we had never dined here before but my fiance and I both agreed we were happy it ended up the way it did. 10/10. Staff were excellent and attentive. They read all the queues perfectly and showcased lots of knowledge in all categories. Go here. You will not be disappointed.

    Food was mediocre. Oysters/steak/cheese platter all were underwhelming to say the least. 30 day aged steak was average. Drink menu very limited. I ordered diff drink not on menu and it was not good. Had to modify it and still not good. I would not return.
