Amour Weho

"Indoors or out? It's the eternal question in Los Angeles, but even more difficult to decide at Amour. Banquettes and booths beckon on the patio, while the dining room, accessed through a library stacked with vintage books, is loaded with charm down to the very last candlestick. Multicourse tasting menus are on offer or order à la carte from a menu that blends French and Asian influences, as in chawanmushi with Perigord truffles and trout roe. New Caledonia blue prawn carpaccio and a French-style omelet with a quenelle of caviar and Comté foam are just two of the well-executed dishes. Wagyu sided by crispy matchstick potatoes is given a hint of sweetness courtesy of a swirl of beet puree, while millefeuille with dulce de leche brings it all home." - Michelin Inspector

What Makes a Restaurant Truly Sexy: Lighting, Color, and a Killer Playlist | Eater

"At the French restaurant where love is literally in the name, lighting is described as the most essential element: Fuks says, "If you have the right lighting, you can make any space work," and he adds, "I see so many beautiful restaurants with terrible lighting. That completely destroys the experience. It doesn’t matter how amazing the restaurant is, if you have this ugly white LED light on top of the table, I just want to leave." He notes the challenge posed by a 2024 California law that restricts the sale of incandescent bulbs in favor of LEDs, and while there are "all sorts of expensive LED lighting set-ups that can be controlled by phone apps," he prefers to keep it "old-school," using "luxe gold candlesticks with lit candles placed atop each table," and hunting down warm lightbulbs that can be manually dimmed as afternoon shifts into evening. On color and mood he says, "I’m a spiritual person, and green is actually the color of the heart chakra, so we wanted it to be prominent," and he emphasizes that "green is really the color of love." For music he blends French love songs with more upbeat ’70s disco and admits, "We kind of struggled with the music at first," explaining, "It took a while to figure out how to make the music speak to the crowd. You have to mix the upbeat songs and the romantic songs so that you can appeal to everybody." He and his wife Abbie spent two years painstakingly choosing every single detail there, underscoring that much of the restaurant’s intimacy comes from the owners’ personal touches." - Amy McCarthy

The 9 Most Romantic Restaurants In America 2025 - The Infatuation

"If “absurdly romantic restaurant” appeared in the dictionary, it would be next to a picture of Amour. This fancy French restaurant in LA is a verifiable paradis Français. There’s a large back courtyard with ivy-covered walls, a dark dining room with tasseled lampshades, and a semi-private lounge with a roaring fireplace. The maître d’ even greets everybody with a sultry “bonsoir, mon ami.” The whole thing’s a bit ridiculous, but they get away with it because the food is solid. Any date will fall in love with the lobster tagliatelle." - anne cruz
