Citron Description:
Eat in the minimalist dining room or enjoy a meal poolside and gaze at the palm trees and the black-and-white décor in all its Hollywood post-modern-meets-retro cool. Breakfast includes healthy organic choices, along with the bad stuff, too. The lunch menu puts chic touches on midday standards (don't miss the Parmesan truffle fries or the short rib tacos), but it's at dinner that the real culinary action gets going. Executive chef James Bailey has Southern roots, which sometimes lightly colors the new American menu, but the most important element in his cooking is his insistence on fresh, seasonal and local ingredients. His use of vegetables is imaginative and results in some unexpected but pleasing combinations, such as his salmon with pickled beets, sliced fennel and a salad of sweet cara cara oranges. The lasagna with truffled mascarpone, kale and a mushroom ragoût manages to blend richness and lightness, a clever trick. There is an accessible and interesting wine list.
