It’d be haute dining if Joe’s weren’t so unfussy and approachable. The menu evolves through the seasons and represents California cuisine at its best: farm-to-table ingredients prepared with formal French techniques and purposeful Asian and Mediterranean notes. Lamb with sunchokes and spiced yogurt, minor beef with blackberry gastrique, shrimp with saffron risotto and toasted pistachios: Such classic dishes are perennially available on the more affordable lunch menu. The breezy room—or even breezier patio—is one of the most grown-up places for weekend brunch. And if none of that is convincing enough, Joe’s was recently awarded a rare-for-L.A. Michelin star.
