Price: Expensive

• American • Calabasas

The Society of Six was a group of innovative Northern California artists who came to prominence in the 1920s, during Prohibition. At an Oakland cabin known as the Chow House, the six closely knit painters held heated discussions about the state of the art world, fueled by home-cooked meals served with home-brewed beer and wine. The Society of Six and their passion for art, food and wine inspired us to create a new Six, an American rustic restaurant concept with traditional, unpretentious fare. The Six has a cozy, neighborhood vibe that is affordable and accessible to singles, families and business-people.

A "go to" place to dine if you're visiting the Getty or just looking for an elegant lunch or early dinner (depending on the season). Beautiful setting with amazing views of the ocean and mountains, impeccable service and well prepared food. Not as pricy as one might expect for such a semi formal setting. Can't recommend it enough! And, you have the museum at the front door!

Food was fabulous and the service was wonderful. It was busy and we ended up sitting upstairs in this little private area and it was so nice. It was like being in someone’s home.
