AOC

AOC is becoming one of my favorite places.  The patio is so beautiful and doesnt feel like you are in L.A.  We didn't feel rushed and enjoyed each dish that came before ordering the next. The server was helpful and best of all the place as busy as it was did not have attitude.  Bacon wrapped dates as a starter, Spanish friend chicken, Halibut, Fried (lightly) caliuflower.  Everything was just wonderful.  Cant wait to go back and try the other things.

We were with a large group and the execution could have been better. The food was great. Little hiccuos like serving small portions that are not quite "family style" appropriate and then an inability to distribute checks in a timely fashion detracted from the experience.

My overall experience at AOC was excellent. Food was delicious and full of flavors. The vegetable dishes were quite amazing; they were very well prepared, just as interesting as any other meat dishes.  I absolutely loved way they designed restaurant sitting area. We sat in the patio area. It felt very comfortable, like at someone else's house.  It was kind of a short visit, I'd most definitely like to go back and visit again, try more dishes.  Not quite a 5 star because it's really a bit too pricey.
