Le Double Smashburger
The Le Double Smashburger at Violet Bistro is a culinary masterpiece! The perfectly seasoned patties, melted cheese, and fresh toppings harmonize beautifully, creating an indulgent yet balanced bite every time. A true gourmet experience in a cozy French-inspired setting. Highly recommend!
Salade Mizou
I love this salad! It's so simple yet exactly what I look for in a salad. Fresh herbs, crunchy multicolor bib lettuce, and delicious sheep's milk cheese. The tarragon, dill, parsley and other herbs used paired with the light vinaigrette makes this a standout dish that I think about often and could eat every day. The pistachios sprinkled on top also add a nice texture. It's light but the fresh herbs give it a punch of flavor with each bite. I would recommend this salad to all first timers as it pairs nicely with chicken, steak, fish or duck.
French Onion Soup
My favorite in the city and a whole meal in itself. Decadent, rich, and just lovely to eat.
Salade Mizou
The most delicious salad I have ever eaten. I could have had two of them. Light, refreshing and the most amazing flavor.
Bistro Steak
We travel to Los Angeles often for my father's medical appointments at UCLA. When in town we make a point to visit Violet L.A. The staff is always accommodating and attentive. The menu is fresh and executed perfectly, our favorite dish is the bistro steak.
Le Double Smashburger
Violet Bistro would not be the intuitive place to seek a smashburger, but oh boy did this burger prove my intuition wrong. I expected something classy and tasteful (like everything at Violet), yet somehow missing the distinctive gritty characteristic that makes a smashburger a smashburger. Instead, what I found was a true delight: Le Double Smashburger was not just an upscale take on the smashburger, but a perfection of the very concept. It embraces the traditional hardiness of a smashburger, but dares to do it in Violet's uniquely reimagined way, with masterful results. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it. Suffice it to say, if I had the budget, I would be regularly chowing on Le Double instead of In-n-Out's Double Double---and I think you'll agree with me.
Week Five: August 22nd - 25th
The scallops at Violet Bistro are fantastic- seasoned and cooked to perfection! The atmosphere outside in the courtyard is so relaxing. And I appreciate the welcoming staff and excellent service. Top notch all the way around- we'll be back!
Truffle Frites
The truffle frites are amazing at Violet. They are crispy on the outside yet maintain a toothsomeness that is indicative only of fries that are well-made. The truffle flavor is not overpowering and it goes very well with the rosemary and parmesean cheese. I don't even need the porcini aioli but you've love it if you're a dipper. Pair the frites with any rose on the menu, and I'm a happy camper. (I also love the diver scallops but I decided on writing about the frites because I get them every time!)
