My wife and I ate at Providence for our anniversary, and the ambiance, food and particularly the service make it our new favorite restaurant in Los Angeles. They offer 5- and 8-course tasting menus, and my wife and I went with the 5-course. The first course was a delicious kampachi, followed by scallops with bacon (my wife's favorite). The next... more

My friend and I went with others for our birthday. AMAZING food! Trout amuse bouche was delicious. Wagyu beef prepared beautifully. My friend had an out of body experience with the chowda. The panna cotta and coconut balloon (coolest thing!) was the best dessert at the table. Wouldn't recommend the carrot cake with goat cheese ice cream. Service was gracious... more

Went there for a big business celebration last night and was underwhelmed. Decor and ambiance, so-so. Dark in one part of the restaurant, with the other part more open but the interior design seemed bland. Windows darkened with no view of outside although there wasn't much to look at since it would have faced the traffic on Melrose Ave. Detected... more

We followed Cimarusti from Water Grill to Providence and he has a talent for seafood. Do not even bother with other dishes. We dined here when the location was Patina and Providence was a much better experience if that tells you how much we liked this given that Patina was very highly rated. We ha the tasting menu and it... more

We came here for a special event knowing the price. It was incredible--worth the price. Each person loved their meal. If I spend this kind of money I want great ingridients and I want those ingridients cooked in such a way that It is much better than I could do or a normal restaurant would do. The ingridients were amazing... more
