L’appart

My friend and I dined here last night for DineLA week, and I'm so glad we did!!We both started with the shallot soup. It was out of this world! It had an amazing cheese crust even on the outside of the bowl. It had so much depth and flavor. Oh my goodness! I got the Beef Bourguignon and she ordered the duck confit. She loved her dish. I didn't try it but it looked great! The beef bourguignon was delicious! The meat was insanely tender, you don't even need a knife. It truly was lovely. The red wine and mushroom sauce was delicious.We each ordered one dessert so we tried both the crème brûlée and the profiterole. The profiterole was very good, we both love dark chocolate so it was right up our alley. But oh my goodness was that crème brûlée delectable! It was on another level for desserts. You have to order it.We had great service. They were attentive and were super kind to us all night. I would undoubtedly come back here again. Even if just for a bowl of soup and some crème brûlée! I've actually passed this restaurant multiple times with my work and we always said we should try it. I'm so glad my friend and I stopped in! The restaurant itself is a more intimate setting, not too large. They've done a great job decorating. It's elegant but inviting

Valentine's Day, so decided to make it French and try L'appart. Didn't necessarily want the set menu they had, but that was so they were offering after we sat down, so there we were. The bread started if with an amuse bouche. There were two bites, one was a stuffed mushroom, which was a nice and full of flavor. The other, not sure what it was, but also good. Appetizers came next to which we ordered the salmon gravelax. This came with a dill mousse and focaccia. The salmon was actually really good, not necessarily heading that hard salmon flavor you come to expect. The dill mousse probably helped cut that though. There could have been more focaccia for sure. Next were the entrees. The scallops were paired with a ginger beet puree with honey roasted beets. The beats didn't have that overpowering flavor you come to expect from beats and was actually more enjoyable than I thought it would be. The scallops were on the smaller side and I wish they would have had that nice sear on them, but still good. The beef tenderloin came medium rare with a stuffed potato. The meat was delicious, just fell apart in your mouth. As for the desserts, it was a trio of desserts with a chocolate fondant, a raspberry profiteroles and a lemon tart. The lemon tart has the most flavor and was very refreshing, while the raspberry profiterole was something different but good. The fondant was not memorable. Overall, really wish we could have tried some of the items on the regular menu, but the items we did have were cooked well with wonderful presentation. If you're looking for a French restaurant in Los Angeles, you might want to try L'appart to hit that craving

The Good: The ambiance is fantastic. The sommelier was excellent. The profiteroles were the best I've had outside of Paris. The Bad: Dinner, however, was very disappointing. The onion and shallot soup was weirdly super sweet. Like they added sugar, it was not what I was expecting. The duck confit was super salty and well over-cooked. I was struggling to cut through it with a knife.

I went to L'Appart for the first time for a Friendsmas dinner and we all left happy and full. The food was delicious our favorites were the cauliflower pizza, the octopus and the escargot. We did a dinner of mostly shared apps to taste a little bit of everything. We reordered the escargots because they were that good, unfortunately they ran out of octopus after our first order but c'est la vie. The portions for the appetizers were good but we were surprised at how small the tartare was especially considering it was a main plate. To be fair it does come with fries. The drinks were good and the service was excellent. For dessert we ordered their Nutella pizza and apple tart a la mode both good choices but we enjoyed the Nutella pizza with its toasted almonds the most. The only reason this was not a full 5 stars was the location. Parking is always crazy downtown but due to it being in the middle of two one-way streets, it was a bit hectic. It's easiest to just park at the lot across the way for a flat fee. They don't have bathrooms inside of the restaurant so you have to ask for a bathroom ticket from the restaurant, walk down the hallway and up the stairs to use the shared restroom for all the establishments in the shopping center. The bathrooms have a security guard at the front who will allow you in with the ticket so the restrooms are clean. Aside from this, the restaurant itself, the food and service are excellent. I would come back again and try more tasty French cuisine!

If you love french food and culture you need to come here. Honestly I just came on a lunch date, but my gosh it was like I was back in france and the kitchen knows what they are doing. (Haha I was in a rush and they were very french like in that fashion unfortunately as well, but I loved it)I will definitely be back and I think you need to come and eat this delicious food. Such a cute place.Err the pizza was pretty bad but the duck was beyond amazing

I'm French and I approve this restaurant ‍.A true homie uncomplicated French menu. It's authentic and delicious. Take your significant other and surprise them, you'll love it.

This spot is a little tricky to find, but once you do, you'll find the cutest decorated hall of restaurants. Seems very far removed from its area. We came on a weekday during lunch hours, and it wasn't busy at all. We were quickly seated by friendly service and introduced to some of the dishes when we asked. I ordered the dish of the day, which highlighted a perfectly cooked sea bass sitting on top of cauliflower purée and garnished with pearls of roe. The cauliflower purée was to die for!! My only critique is that the fish was sitting in a pool of oil, which I found to be a little unappetizing. Other than that, amazing and would come back to try the duck.

Air Food L'appart has a unique name and also a unique style of food. This place is located in the Los Angeles area on Broadway and 6th Street. It was my first time here and I came with three other people for a nice early dinner. The inside felt nice and had homely vibes. Our server was taking our order and I would say I liked our food. The pizza was amazingly delicious. The crust and the bread were so tasty that we decided to order a dessert pizza at the end of our meal. Overall the escargots which are snails were hot and tasty. I liked dipping our side of bread into the hot oil. You must order the duck it was delicious and also don't forget to get some dessert.

It was not super busy when we went for an early dinner. The Food was good. Interesting atmosphere. Good service

We wanted to check out Garcons de Cafe but somehow ended up at Air Food L'appart instead. The restaurants are connected, so it's either the same owner or some sort of partnership. Ambiance was great - It did not feel like we're in the middle of DTLA lol. Our server, Sylvaine was extremely knowledgeable and recommended amazing dishes.+ Onion & shallots soup 5/5: Omg! This is probably one of the best onion soup I've ever had. It was light but very flavorful. We should have each gotten our own lol.+ Burgundy snails 4/5: I love escargot but I wish this dish would've tasted more garlicky. I guess the natural flavors of the snail did shine thru since the sauce wasn't too overpowering.+ Oysters (5/5): No complaints! Thankfully no sandy gritty ones. + Bayonne (pizza) 4/5: Nicely baked and cheesy pizza. Ham was a bit salty.+ Pear dessert 5/5: Poached pear with chocolate drizzle. It was not ridiculously sweet. I was glad I got to try this!+ Lillet Fritz 4/5: Cocktail with rose and sparkling wine. It was just okay - too dry for my liking!All the dishes we ordered tasted great and I enjoyed my dinner here. Will come back with the dogs next time since restaurant is dog-friendly too!
