The incoming West Hollywood eatery will serve fresh seafood dishes, vegetable plates, and desserts from Southern France and coastal Europe.

“Drink options will include a wine list that highlights California, French, and other European wines, as well as reimagined renditions of classic French cocktails from beverage director Melina Meza,” explains Eater.

The Hermers are responsible for lauded fine-dining venues like Olivetta – an Italian, Greek & Spanish-inspired restaurant – and the Draycott, a family-friendly brasserie located in the Palisades. 

Comment from the Hermers is forthcoming.
