Deme, short for Demeter, (the Greek Goddess of the Harvest) is a new Eastern Mediterranean and Aegean Sea-inspired poolside eatery at Hotel Figueroa, with nods to the sea-faring communities along the Eastern Mediterranean Coast, Turkey, and Israel, led by Executive Chef Blake Shailes. Think: housemade Mediterranean dips served with freshly made pita bread using a combination of ancient Kamut flour and Tehachapi Farms Red Fife Flour, Crispy Lobster Kataifi, Turkish Manti (Turkish Lamb Dumplings), Lahmacun (Turkish Pizza // Spiced Wagyu Flatbread), a Greek-inspired Glazed Octopus & Grilled Grape Skewers, and large-format platters designed for shareable feasts including Slow Cooked Lamb Neck Shawarma, Half Heritage Chicken Mansaf and desserts including housemade Baklava, and housemade Soft Serve paired with a refreshing and playful cocktail program developed by Bar Director, Milosz Cieslak. Open for dinner nightly from 5pm - close.

    Loved our experience at Deme! The restaurant is like an oasis in the middle of DTLA, and the food was great.

    Food was wonderful. Server was gracious and offered sincere and great suggestions. We had openers, mezze and an entree. Flavors were amazing. All great: dips, lamb dumplings, prawns and duck shawarma. Will return with another hungry crowd!

    I love everything about the restaurant. The only exception was being seated outside. Yes, the overhead heat lamps worked but it was still cold. Not the end of the world either.

    The setting is utter magic, pool on one side, Deco fireplace on the other. The food is terrific, especially the ethereal dips (best baba ganoush ever) and veggie mezze. Service is warm and friendly. And love, love the banquette seating. Get there before the hordes find out about it.

    The food was mediocre for the price. Don't mind paying for great food but this wasn't it. I could have gotten better and cheaper food from my local Mediterranean restaurant. Not worth the price.
