Taste of Beauty（TOB） | West Hollywood

Had dinner here last night with 2 friends and we had an incredible meal. Two of us are vegetarian and one is not— the food was so delicious you don’t even think about the fact that there’s no meat involved! They incorporate flavor profiles from different regions of Asia, including Tibet, China, Thailand, etc. The servers (Wilson and Kris!) were so friendly and accommodating, describing every dish perfectly. The cocktails were also divine, my favorite was the matcha one. I loved that they incorporated all different types of mushrooms into each dish. We did the 8 course vegetarian and I want to go back and try the vegan 8 course now. It’s nice because you’re not too full which often happens at fixed course meals, everything was a great size, plated beautifully, and paced well. Would be great for a date night or friend night (which ours was)! Can’t wait to go back

What I Like about is the creation of Asian food even though it is not new. However it is my first time to see the creation of Asian food. The taste was good although I did not like few dishes. Overall, the food is beautifully presented and full of flavor, striking a perfect balance between creativity and comfort. What I don’t like is 1. The layout Especially the restroom is close to the kitchen. The restroom is a little too shabby, and the sink is too low. The tissue is displayed there, getting socked, which does not make me feel good if it is a beautifully tasteful restaurant. The kitchen looks messy whenever I passed by the restroom, which reminded of some common Asian restaurants that do not care about sanity. I would love to say the table on the window-side was ideal. However, the rest of the area did not please me. Patio was not bad though. 2. The dessert. The Tiramisu is so far the worst I’ve had. The lucky arrival was frozen hard, I can not even crack it. I guess a knife is hard to open it. So obviously it was just taken from the refrigerator and served on my table. Not fresh. I called waiter to cancel it. It was not cancelled and I still paid for. Some dishes are amazingly good like the spicy barbecue meat. And lettuce with mushroom. For the interpreting food part, I haven’t seen any restaurant using a new method instead of saying a lot on each course. I mean if there is another possibility that we can use iPad or TV screen or some standing machine to display the ingredients and really educate customers about the ingredients that are used in each dish. A lot of times, I quickly forget what I ate although I had a little bit memory from what I’d heard when waiters were talking really fast and felt like it was a task that a person must read everything. I can tell more and more restaurants tried to chase the trending that it is no longer easy to satisfy the customers with simple eating experiences. So probably educating customers is what we really wanna know and enjoy the difference between home cooking and outdoor dining.

8/8/2025 - We were told this newly opened vegan restaurant is very good. We decided to come to have a tasting menu to enjoy our dinner. Each dish presentation is either very good or excellent. The taste of each dish is either very good or excellent. The best dish we love is The Forest, which has a thick oyster mushroom with a perfect sauce. The pumpkin soup is creamy, smooth, delicious. If you are vegan, you must try this place with Himalayan inspired menu.

Highly recommend this Vegan Fine Dining restaurant. Loooved our 8 course vegan meal and that fact that they start you with butterfly pea tea. Each course was decadent and to die for! I just wish our server knew the name of each ingredient; as this is crucial. Other than that, super recommend it!

This had to be some of the best vegan food I’ve ever had! Super delicious and beautiful dishes! All very healthy, whole food plant based with an Asian Fusion influence. The dishes were very creative, some of them even had a story behind the name and plating. Our server was also fantastic! It is a tad pricey if you would do the full tasting menu, but well worth it! Definitely great for a special occasion or fancy date!

We were looking for a place that could give us both vegan food and an experience and this place is the bperfect blend of the two. We had both a visual and palate treat on each dish. Our server Wilson was patient with us and explained each and every dish with a theme that honors living things across the world. We really loved each course in the 8 course vegan tasting menu. They were accommodating with any allergies and dislikes. Definitely come here for a one of a kind experience!

Incredible solo dinner at T.O.B. I had the 8 course meal and every single one was delicious, with an original, interesting presentation. The portions were also extremely generous, I had to take my last course home. Service was also spectacular, my server was so kind and I went at 8:30PM without feeling rushed in any way. Cocktails 5/10. Tasty but watered down. Every thing else makes up greatly for that. Can’t wait to return.

Wilson and the team at TOB provide such an amazing culinary experience for a truly special night that goes beyond sustenance. Every aspect is thoughtfully crafted with intention for a perfect balance of flavors and textures that comfort and satisfy. Each dish on the vegan tasting menu is a new experience that makes you think through each flavor experience. The varied use of ingredients both common favorites and more uncommon plants combine in joyful ways❤️
