The Scene
Decor is minimal: earth-toned walls and carpeting, crisp white linens and almond-colored banquettes lining both sides of the dining room. Globally flavored electronica plays at conversation-friendly levels, while gourmets and food adventurers marvel at artful dishes. Knowledgeable--not stuffy--servers in black lab coats deftly guide patrons through each creative dish.

The Food
Asian influences surface throughout the four always-changing tasting menus. Fennel presented four ways includes purees painted on the plate, gelled cubes, a savory ice and fennel candy. A delicately flavored sashimi course has bites of salmon, scallops and hamachi alongside a cup of coconut milk and black squid ink. Chef Homaro Cantu's interest in science is evident in many dishes. Whimsical Squeezes--eyedropper-like pipettes filled with purees of ingredients like Swiss chard and bacon--pack a flavorful punch. Pacific bass is baked tableside to melt-in-your-mouth perfection in a futuristic-looking transparent polymer box.
