Joyce - Review - Downtown LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation
"Low-country classics get the fine-dining treatment at Joyce, a flashy all-day spot in DTLA. They serve angel biscuits with lavender honey, hushpuppies with charred poblano butter, and black truffles on top of 40-hour braised short ribs. While the inventive twists sound great, in reality, the upscale menu is a mix of hits and misses. We’re into the smoked duck confit coated in Jamaican jerk spice and the cake-like cornbread served with whipped butter, however, you can skip the over-fried pork belly and the mushy shrimp perloo, which lacked seasoning. We’d still come here for a fun dinner or a weekend brunch with friends who want to sip martinis in a big round booth and take down a seafood tower." - Nikko Duren
