About
With its classic décor and fresh, California cuisine, Lucques is a quintessential L.A. dining experience. The atmosphere is as warm as the La Brea Bakery bread that arrives before every meal. Brick walls and leather booths fill the interior; the garden patio consists of foliage and white linen tables. Owners Suzanne Goin (A.O.C.) and Caroline Styne pride themselves on Lucques’ flavorful, memorable menu. Lunch items include a beluga lentil soup and grilled lamb skewer with Swiss chard bread. Dinner offers more seafood options and an assortment of meat dishes like the braised short ribs and the slow-roasted Niman Ranch pork. Sundays are the busiest nights because of Goin’s famous $40 per person prix fixe Sunday Supper menu, a superb deal for a three-course meal. After nearly a decade, Lucques shines not only on this stretch of Melrose sandwiched between Ago and Taste on Melrose, but also in the Los Angeles dining scene as a whole.
TIPS: Weekend reservations fill up to two weeks in advance, so plan ahead. Remember that on Sundays, only the Sunday Supper menu is available.

If you like a quaint, ski lodge feeling vibe this is your spot. I love the cod fish with pea tendrils.
