Wilson, Culver CityBy AnythingGood Jan 21, 2007Last weekend after stopping off at the new Anderson & Low opening at David Gallery (formerly Apex on La Brea), Jon, Jason and I had dinner at the newly opened Wilson. (I secured a reservation after finishing some shopping at Surfa's earlier that evening and they were turning away people at the door when we arrived for our 8:30 seating. So best to call ahead.) The menu is divided into FoodBar, From the Garden and Entrees. (The restaurant does have about 8 seats at the bar for walk-ins.) We settled on a warm potato/herring salad and special roasted pork belly appetizer which was unctuous and amazing. (I do prefer a smoked herring to the pickled variety Wilson's uses in this classic French pairing but I would still order this again.) I had a house-made pasta with boar ragu which was rich, hearty and pefect on an unusually cold LA night. Jason had perhaps the best entree, a roast lamb shank with white beans and preserved lemons. Jon had a monkfish stew with shrimp and scallops. Jon and Jason drank a glass or two of chianti each while I sipped on prosecco. With a location right in the middle of the up-and-coming Culver City furntiture and gallery district and just down from the acclaimed Beacon, I think Wilson will develop quite a following. I look forward to finding a reason to return. FULL REVIEW
