This restaurant is closed! You accepted a reservation, we called the restaurant and told them we were running late and we got a recording as if they were open but this restaurant apparently has been closed for a long time due to remodel at Laima where the restaurant is located. Please show it as closed and don't do this to people. It was very embarrassing as I was taking somebody to dinner for their birthday and we had to wander around abandoned Wilshire Boulevard looking for an open restaurant and had to get a burger

I love this restaurant but it used to have more interesting food. The food is still good but it used to be amazing.

Always have great food and service. Go there now before they close permanently on July 14.

Restaurant centrally located in LACMA, perfect view of live band for summer jazz, waitstaff is helpful with menu selections and the food and drinks were delicious!

Our server was very nice and attentive. The venue is lovely on a sunny day when seated outside. We ordered the olive tapenade, and although the bread was excellent, and there was plenty of it, the olive tapenade serving was sparse. The chicken wings were okay (served with dips), but nothing special. The wine was fine. It is a convenient place to go if visiting LACMA. Unfortunately, they close early, 6pm, as the museum closes around that time. The only other dining alternative at LACMA is Fanny's, a good restaurant, but much pricier.

Everything was good, but the matcha needs improvement. You can barely taste the matcha it's mainly milk. Needs to be sweetened. Bad. Great service tho ?

It's obvious the location helps this place quite a bit. The vibe, service, and food are just mediocre but it's convenient for LACMA visits. I would never go here for any other reason. Very meh.

The Friday free jazz concert, the experience of all the rainbow of people that is LA, the special care taken by Amour, the fabulous greeter, is second only to the delightful and delicious food and drink at Ray' and Stark Bar. I recommend it highly and plan to go again soon. You should too.

Really impressed by this restaurant. Usually I don’t have high expectations for museum restaurants, so I was pleasantly surprised by how the food was so good and the atmosphere was comfortable. The chairs were comfortable too.

We always enjoy lunch at Ray and Stark's when we visit LACMA. Although it was Sunday the ambience was pleasantly low-key, the food was delicious and our waiter was friendly and attentive.
