Viviane

Opened in 2015 in the Avalon Hotel, this elegant restaurant combines mid-century décor with a touch of luxe thanks to designer Kelly Wearstler, who outfitted the space with a full marble bar, swathed it in teal blues and golden yellows and added vintage wood and brass pieces. The adjoining pool area with al fresco dining is also lovely and makes for a relaxing dinner setting. This California–inflected menu features fried jasmine rice with kale and sun-dried blueberries and pan-seared Pacific Cod with ragu of spicy eggplant, cherry tomatoes and olives. Wash it all down with a gin and tonic made with grapefruit ice cubes.
