Dining room at Gordon Ramsay at The London West Hollywood, West Hollywood, CAAfter filming his "Hell's Kitchen" show for many years in the City of Angels, Gordon Ramsay, attracted by the glitter of Hollywood, opened this restaurant just off Sunset at The London West Hollywood, formerly the Bel Age hotel. In contrast to the name of his show, the eponymous restaurant is rather heavenly. The hillside dining room boasts views of the city from the large windows dressed with gold blinds. The designer lavished attention on every detail, creating an elegant and modern atmosphere in gray, gold and white tones. The marble tabletops complement the floor and are surrounded by chairs, armchairs and banquettes in different shapes and textures. Ramsay's team has found the right way to please the palates of Angelenos with upscale, casual cuisine rather than a fine dining experience. Dungeness crab tortellini is accented with leeks, shell fish bisque and tarragon oil, while pan fried sea bass is accompanied by creamed broccoli, fondant potato and braised salsify. Rich foie gras velouté flavors roasted jidori chicken breast with wild mushroom fricassée and glazed chestnuts. Desserts are on par with the savory part, offering seemingly simple dishes that actually require quite a bit of work. Try the pineapple soufflé with Thai curry ice cream. A seven-course chef's tasting is offered for $95, with wine pairings an additional $65. (A nine-course menu is available by request.) The wine list offers about 700 labels---including many old-world white wines to complement the dishes. Afternoon tea and all-day dining is served at the Boxwood Café, which occupies the front area of the restaurant.

Very disappointed in Gordon Ramsey, long wait at table, cold food, slow, slow service. Sent letter in July and was offered a glass of champagne next time, this is after spending over 600.00 for four. In fairness several dishes were delicious and unusual. I will not recommend Gordon Ramsay.

Nice decor. Food was good, was hoping for great since it is Gordon Ramsay. I guess I'll have to go to the UK to experience a real Gordon Ramsay restaurant. Service was OK. Everything was just OK.
