This gem of a Restaurant has the most unique and beautiful salt water aquarium I’ve ever seen. Unique because it’s located on the restaurant’s ceiling. Also the bottom of the aquarium had several domes to give a fish eye view of the beautiful fish. Pausing underneath the aquarium and gazing into the transparent dome of glass, I felt like a fish gazing at my friends under the sea. We ordered whatever our heart’s desired and there happened to be an absolutely lovely jazz trio there to entertain and delight. I felt Blessed beyond Measure

Nick & Stef's is our go-to restaurant every time we go to the theater, opera and the L.A. Philharmonic Orchestra. The food and service are always 5 stars. I love the Filet Mignon, Chocolate Lava Cake and Lemon Merinque Tart. Nick & Stef's is the only restaurant that makes Chocolate Lava Cake without the burnt taste I've experienced elsewhere. Go to Nick & Stef's. You will not be disappointed.

Excellent dinner! Dining room seemed a bit loud so we sat outside where there were large heaters and blankets were offered (not needed). The food and service were top notch. Expect to pay over $100 per person but well worth it
