"With a third following in Culver City, California." - Ashok Selvam
"After facing a potential eviction earlier this year, Culver City restaurant Etta will close at the end of December 2023. The closure was confirmed by the incoming operator of the space, Paul Pruitt, whose management company Mosaic runs the rooftop Canopy Club on the property. Etta staffers were notified last week; Eater reached out to Etta management but did not receive a response." - Matthew Kang
"A group of former Whole Foods executives and a Plant Food + Wine veteran chef are on the verge of opening an all-day plant-based restaurant in Culver City this week. Love Life [stylized as Love.Life] debuts on Friday, May 5 in the massive Ivy Station complex at Venice and National Boulevard, which also houses Etta, Equator Coffee, and the second tasting room for Los Angeles Ale Works." - Mona Holmes
"Of late, Etta’s menu has taken a near-full transformation from a vaguely California Italian bill of fare to something that transcends any region or style. Take the Alaskan king crab served in a Dutch oven with plump shrimp and angel hair pasta in a spicy, creamy tomato sauce." - Eater Staff
"Your aunt by marriage who has worked in legal for 40 years is in town for a conference and wants to check in on you. Sure, she thinks you’re still a senior in high school, but that’s beside the point. Take her to Etta, because she requires good food that won’t surprise her too much. This upscale spot in Culver City has a big, corporate-lush space and an extensive “wood-fired” menu that you can focus on while she zones out for eight minutes because she’s clearly thinking about her work presentation." - Brant Cox
