"This no-frills spot, with its wooden tables and apron-wearing bartender, just might be one of the few restaurants in L.A. where you'll find top-rate food served without a hint of attitude or fuss."

"The unexpected gem is the crudo: a recent combo of raw fluke, yuzu, serrano chile, apple, and pungent mint was no macho plate but downright girly—silky, sexy, and impeccably dressed."

"Puck's formal, fun grotto and refined dining rooms still great places to be seen. You pretty much know the deal by now."
