"The wall that divides the lounge from the dining room is made of several layers of pale MDF (medium density fiberboard) cut with oval holes, the holes and layers overlapping so it resembles a slice of Swiss cheese on legs. At the entrance, an egg shape cu..."

"The girls (Dre, Erin, Nancy) and I perused the list, but nothing really appealed to us except the Fuji-Ricky, which sounded delightful and sweet but not syrupy. Even though I think I’m over pear vodkas now since it seems like everyone is doing somet..."

"Contemporary American Cuisine represented by dishes such as Crispy Yogurt with Spinach Almond Puree; Thai Snapper Sashimi with Gaufrette Potato; Alaskan Halibut with Fresh Chickpeas & Golden Beet Puree; Phyllo Crusted Lamb Loin with Cipolline Onions & Mus..."

"After enduring another wait in order to ask for the dessert menu, we split the warm Croissant Bread Pudding ($12), which was a lot more interesting and dynamic than the description revealed. A warm cushion of bread pudding was brushed with a butterscotch..."

"The drop dead gorgeous views---a fresh view of Downtown, including Staples Center---are just the beginning at Blue Velvet. For starters, that can be anything from crispy yogurt with spinach-almond purée (his riff on the North Indian dish sag paneer) to h..."

"Executive chef Kris Morningstar has worked for Patina and the now-defunct Meson G; between the ground-level Blue Velvet and the rooftop herb garden is The Flat, a residential building looking much more hip than during its days as a Holiday Inn. Notable el..."

"Come Monday, Blue Velvet will open at The Flat, a residential development downtown. From the release we just got in our inbox, the publicist doesn't go over board with specifics, which leads us to believe they know about as much as we do...."

"The food takes itself very seriously and expects customers to do the same. The chef sent out an amuse-gueule of salmon tartare, a perfect combination of salty and tart flavors and soft and crunchy texture...."

"The stylish downtown/Westlake restaurant Blue Velvet is just taking these concepts to their logical conclusion: brewing its own beers designed for its seasonal menus. Last night it trotted out the three beers of its first batch for a six-course tasting me..."

"In the new downtown Los Angeles, you are never more than a few steps from a shot of Pravda, a DJ or a plate of tuna tartare — the only things that seem to be multiplying faster than $800,000 condos in crumbling warehouse buildings are the hyperdesigned..."

"Blue Velvet gives new meaning to the phrase home cooking, located on the southern fringe of a chic urban residential development called The Flat. Half lounge, half foodie paradise, the interior is an assortment of vibes, with two exotically-designed loung..."

"The Brown Room seats up to 50 for modern American cuisine like roasted quail and a mean short rib dip. The Blue Lounge features a sunken 17-foot granite communal table designed to spark conversation among strangers ("Try my smoked eel?..."
