When it comes to dining at Comme Ca, there are deux dishes you must always choose – crisp 'n fresh House-cured Salmon Tartare and bold 'n beautiful Paleron of Beef Bourguignon.
Brought to you by chef David Myers, Comme Ca sweeps you away to a modern French Brasserie complete with mixologist Prohibition style "18A Cocktails", Hourglass hors d'oeuvres from 5-7pm, and a raw Oyster Bar. The mood is dark woods meets cafe black & whites. And the menu offers everything that makes you want to taste all night. But if your budget doesn't abide, here's what should be your next bite.
The Grubdown:
- I order it every time, earthy 'n Fennel fresh with a cubey crunch, House-cured Salmon Tartare, Chive Creme Fraiche, Dill & Crispy Potato Galette $10
- flakey, crispy, spicy, nutty, yes please I'd like a bowl-full Dungeness Crab Croquettes with Harissa Aioli $8
- it's literally a whole meal, the hand model 'n I couldn't put it all down, super sinful Poutine with Pomme Frites, Vermont White Cheddar Curves, Sausage Gravy & Sunny Side Up Egg $8
- ridiculously perfect from taste to tableau, my only wish is for more sauce to slurp, Paleron of Beef Bourguignon with Prime Beef Shoulder, Pomme Aligot & Braised Carrots $26
- just the light touch to end a heavy meal, Chocolate Pot Du Creme with Cardamom Creme Chantilly & Orange-Kissed Cookie $9
- warm wrapped French Bread and Salted Butter (complimentary)
- East Side Gin with Cucumber, Lime & Mint and Copper Fix Rye with Honey, Lemon & Bitters, Happy Hour Cocktails $6 each
Every time I come to Comme Ca, I want to order the entire menu. From the Coq Au Vin and Bone Marrow, to the Tarte Flambe (Quiche) even Beef Stroganoff, Mushroom Risotto, and highly acclaimed Burger, I'm sure you can see why.
Bite Advice: Take advantage of their happy hour to ease your way in with a sampling of each sin. And, sharing is a must amongst all the rich dishes.
Right now Comme Ca is participating in Dine LA – unfortunately, my deux favorites aren't a part of the prix fixe.
