Restaurateur Bill Chait has been behind some of L.A.'s favorite restaurants, from République and Bestia to Rivera and Sotto. Next up is the long standing Church & State, housed in a former industrial building and which helped to define the dining scene in the Arts District. Expect a more modern look and feel with a sense of a classic neighborhood Parisian brasserie.
Heading up the kitchens is French-born chef David Feau - who was previously at The Royce in Pasadena and Wally’s in Beverly Hills. The menu and style has been inpired by the bistronomy movement - which has taken France by storm - a reimagined approachable dining style with pared-back dining space, relaxed service, and an abiding focus on freshness and seasonality.
