"This intimate French spot in Santa Monica is the kind of place where putting on a fancy outfit feels like meeting the moment. You’ll eat nouveau French food like crackly brioche and roasted beets topped with a wavy beet crisp, sip boozy amaro cocktails, and chat up the eccentric chef who touches each table before night’s end. This is all while the Palisades old guard strut in with diamond broaches and vintage Hermès bags. At Muse, there’s no such thing as being overdressed." - brant cox, sylvio martins, cathy park
