Cuvée

Cuvée Restaurant Review:

Cuvée occupies some rarefied real estate, with the city’s trendiest shops and boutiques just a few doors away. So don’t be surprised if Lindsay, Paris or Kim drop in for a snack after browsing the fashions at Intermix, Tory Burch or Rock & Republic. At this stylish, black granite-clad coffee bar-wine shop-café, you can grab a cup of cappuccino---or even a bottle of Lafite---to go, or settle in for a casual meal. Mornings involve breakfast burritos, blueberry pancakes and huevos rancheros, while the lunch menu offers sandwiches and wraps, including a chicken panino and an eight-ounce Black Angus burger. Among the generously portioned salads is seared ahi over greens with a spirited ginger-soy vinaigrette. Pastas are also available. There are some umbrella-shaded tables outside, ideal for people-watching. Also located at 2000 Avenue of the Stars, Century City, 310-277-3303.
