"If your resolutions involve being more iconic next year, consider starting things off early with Asterid's $165 prix fixe. The five-course menu involves caviar tamales, Dungeness crab, and a big, meaty strip steak. But the real draw of this DTLA restaurant is its location. The moody space-age dining room sits inside the Walt Disney Concert Hall and is the perfect place to show off that new sparkly outfit." - brant cox, nikko duren, sylvio martins, garrett snyder
