LA Pretty-Girl Mantra

West Hollywood’s Ardor has long been an IG darling, nestled inside the chic The West Hollywood EDITION hotel. It ticks every box of the "LA pretty meal" stereotype: stunning visuals, just-okay flavors, and not-so-friendly prices — but for the photos alone, it feels totally worth it. From the tropical jungle-like entrance hallway to the lush greenery indoors, every corner is designed for the ’gram. Even the dishes — from appetizers to mains — are plated like edible art. The star of the show? The flower-adorned pizza dessert, which had my dining partner and me smiling from ear to ear 📸✨ We spent nearly $300 for two, and honestly, the flavors weren’t particularly memorable. But that gooseberry pizza? Absolutely gorgeous — so much so that it deserves its spot as the cover photo. Pro tip: if you’re celebrating a birthday and forget a cake, just stick a candle in this pizza and you’ve got a photo-ready moment 🎂🕯️ I actually dined here last year, but living by the LA pretty-girl code — if you didn’t post it, it didn’t happen — I’m finally giving this meal its moment in the feed. Consider its purpose served 😌💐 📍 Ardor 9040 W Sunset Blvd, West Hollywood, CA 90069 #RomanticizeLife #FoodInspo #GlobalFoodieContest #LADining #LAEats
