The food was average, and compare to other fine dining- the service was a bit dissapointed. Nothing special , compare to what we have paid for 3 ppl. ($1460)

If you are looking for a dining experience that defies the norm, Seline is the place. It was a flawless evening that truly showcased why they deserve every bit of their Michelin star. The Concept & Food: The dishes here are wonderfully avant-garde. Each plate felt like a piece of art, both in presentation and flavor. What I appreciated most—especially as someone who doesn't have a sweet tooth—was how perfectly balanced every dish was. Instead of relying on sugar, the flavors were deep, natural, and incredibly sophisticated. The Experience & Flow: The menu structure and the order of the courses are quite different from your typical fine dining spots. It keeps you on your toes and makes the meal feel like an exciting journey. We opted for the Champagne and wine pairing, and it was absolute perfection. The sommelier clearly knows how to complement these unique flavors. The Ambience: The space itself is cozy and intimate, with a stunning garden that adds a magical touch to the atmosphere. It felt like a private escape from the city. Final Verdict: Seline offers a creative, bold,and high-level dining experience that stands out from the crowd. I walked out completely satisfied. If you want a meal that is both beautiful and intellectually stimulating, this is a must-visit.

The service was the high point; the communication was excellent and everyone was so warm, knowledgeable, and generally approachable in a manner not typical to these kinds of tasting menus. The food was inventive and enjoyable, but not "knock your socks off." Still, the restaurant is beautifully-appointed and it's good for a special occasion (albeit extremely loud at times). Our primary disappointment was the wine pairing. It was, at best, lackluster and often had single-course depth pours for as many as three or four courses. That is NOT a pairing - it's basically a weird wine room tasting at a strange cadence. Given the cost of the pairing was about 80% of the menu price and such a disappointment, and without a mind-blowing food experience for the cost, we'd be hesitant to come back here or to recommend it to others.

As good as it gets, quite possibly the best meal in Los Angeles right now. Chef Beran is cooking at the top of his game and this meal should not be missed.

This was our 3rd experience at Seline. The winter menu was polished and delicious, reminiscent of Dialogue which we loved. The staff provided delicious alternatives to suit our dietary preferences.

Dinner experience at Seline was phenomenal. Excellent food every dish detail presentation execution everything top-notch much more deserving than one Michelin star!
Marianne
I would highly recommend this dining experience. Everything is thoughtfully composed from the food, service, wine, mood of the room and music. A beautiful dinner from beginning to the end.

Fun, interesting, and delicious meal with attentive and unfussy service. Hybrid paring was refreshing and the NA options all were top notch. Will be delighted to return.
Dan
Beautiful experience. From the second you walk through the gate, it's abundantly clear Seline is worth the price of admission. Top level service, artisan level food in both plating and taste, in a warm, welcoming environment. Stellar.

From the first moment we entered the restaurant and were escorted to our table - we knew we were at a Michelin two star venue. Service, ambience, and especially the food was out of this world. As good or better than the French Laundry. All 14 courses of their “Fall” menu were delicious. (Although the caviar dessert wasn't our favorite). The wine pairing menu was also very good (the “hybrid” was even better. ). One exception - the young barbaresco wasn't the best match with its course - too young, tight and tannic. Again - Seline was fantastic a could easily be given three stars by Michelin. It is that good
Chef Dave is a master at mixing ingredients and textures. This was probably the most creative menu I've ever experienced, and it was all presented within the theme of “Autumn Exploration.” This is definitely three star caliber and possibly the most innovative culinary journey is Los Angeles.

We had the most amazing meal and experience at Seline — our second visit, and it was every bit as incredible as the first. The flavors, presentation, and attention to detail were perfection. Chef Dave Beran was phenomenal — his creativity and passion truly shine through every course. We can't wait to come back again!

We've followed Chef Beran's journey in LA from Dialogue to Pasjoli, and were looking forward to trying Seline. Unfortunately, the experience felt like a restaurant trying too hard to impress rather than focusing on what truly matters: flavor and consistency. Out of all the plates we tried, only a few stood out, the simplest ones. The cod with miso was beautifully balanced, clean, and perfectly executed, proving that restraint often leads to the most memorable dishes. Sadly, many of the other plates suffered from the opposite problem: too many components fighting for attention, resulting in either overwhelming (salty or sugary) or completely muted flavors. One dish featuring black truffle had no trace of truffle aroma or flavor, a clear miss. Seline's team should prioritize genuine, balanced cooking over social media-driven presentation. At its current price point, higher than many Michelin-starred restaurants, Seline doesn't yet deliver the quality or refinement to match. We truly wanted to love it, but left wishing the team would lean less into gimmicks and more into the elegant simplicity that once defined Chef Beran's best work.

Exceptional from every perspective. The food, the presentation, service and ambiance were all top shelf. Great experience.
