From the OpenTable editors: Providence is the restaurant that seafood dreams and celebratory dinners are made of: James Beard Award-winning chef Michael Cimarusti puts sustainability front and center for his two-MICHELIN-Starred tasting menus featuring the likes of Santa Barbara spot prawns, Golden Kaluga caviar, and Columbia River king salmon. Expect excellent wine pairings, white tablecloths, and exceptional service that doesn’t feel stuffy—just the way LA fine dining should be.
