Pretty Girl Mantra: If you didn't post the food pics, did you even eat

This Ardor in West Hollywood is basically an OG internet celebrity 🌟. Located inside the boutique hotel The West Hollywood EDITION, it checks every box for your typical "pretty meal" in LA: super photogenic, average taste, and not exactly budget-friendly. But honestly? Just going for the photos alone makes it totally worth it. From the tropical jungle-like hallway at the entrance to the greenery-filled dining area, every corner is a vibe. The dishes—from appetizers to mains—are plated like edible art, and their signature flower-decorated pizza dessert had my foodie friend and me grinning from ear to ear 😄. We spent almost $300 for two. While most of the flavors weren’t exactly memorable, the gooseberry pizza was a true standout—so gorgeous it totally deserves the spotlight as my opening pic. Honestly, if you’re celebrating a birthday and forgot to order a cake, just stick a candle in this pizza. Still Instagram gold ✨. Fun fact: I actually dined here last year. But you know the rule—if you don’t post it, it didn’t happen. So here’s my late-but-fierce post, giving this meal the glory it deserves 🥂.
