Last Friday Lavish Lifestyles had the pleasure of dining at Kress, Hollywood's newest addition to the once infamous Hollywood Blvd. Upon entering this exotic 38,000 sf space you feel like your in Vegas ...everything is very big and over the top. The theme is Asian which caries through to the decor and several menu selections.
The service and food is impeccable! Here are some menu suggestions: Calamari, Shrimp ( prepared on a 500 degree rock which cooks at the table) and the Salmon are all excellent. The portions are on the smaller side so I recommend ordering side dishes. The mixed drinks are very good, try the mojito. Lastly, save room for dessert as they have a chocolate fountain which comes with a variety of dipping options. If you are more in the mood for sushi, the mezzanine has a complete wrap around sushi bar. The prices are not bad... dinner for two including drinks runs a little under $200.
OK, now on to the party side of Kress. We were lucky to be given a tour by the executive chef.The tour began in the basement which is all purple with a dance floor in the middle ( easiest part of the club to get into) we then proceeded via elevator to the third floor which is a large VIP section with all white leather couches and crystal chandeliers. Still curious to explore we continued on to the the fourth floor ( rooftop - another VIP section ) beautiful views and cabanas make this a great outdoor space during the summer. We had a great time at Kress! We even saw a couple of well -known celbs (who shall remain nameless) trying desperately to get in!!! This is definitely one of LA's newest hotspots!!
