LA / Adorable Bistro Bar Etoile π΄π
π Bar Etoile I love the decor here! The blue-green color scheme is so refreshing, and I really enjoy the design with hand-painted plates hanging on the walls. The menu and wine glasses even have little stars βοΈ that match the star lights at the entrance β so cute! π The food, however, is a bit of a letdown. The beef tartare is well-seasoned and pairs nicely with the sourdough and special sauce, but itβs a bit too salty. The striped bass is tender with a slightly crispy skin, and the topping reminds me of Lao Gan Ma (Iβm suspicious it might actually be). π The steak frites has good fries π and the steak is tender, but overall itβs pretty standard. The chocolate pie for dessert is delicious and rich!! π« As for the drinks, the champagne is great, but I wouldnβt recommend the other cocktails. One tasted like cough syrup! π Overall: I love the ambiance, but the food is just okay. Put a bit more thought into the dishes, owner! π #LosAngeles #LALife #LAFood #LADining #StudentEats #HiddenGems #Bistro #LAMustTry
