CALIFORNIA CUISINE | INTERNATIONAL FLAVORS | L.A. ATTITUDE
Chef Kim Vu blends technique with a host’s intuition, layering char, sauce, and acid until the flavors lock in. Precision without pretense. For locals, crews, and celebration seekers, not velvet ropes.
Backyard Garden Party
× Night Market Energy
Backyard Garden Party × Night Market Energy
A fun-casual brasserie built for the patio, where the grill leads the room and the service wears sneakers, anchored by our coal-fired ribeye cap finished with miso demi, green peppercorn jus, and a marrow-butter add-on you won’t forget, and paired with the Garden Glow Martini, clarified yuzu, butterfly pea gin, cucumber ice, and a citrus-sparkle rim, with an equally photogenic Free Spirit twin.
Big Host Energy, On Call

Wings hiss, quesadillas blister, fries crackle, sauce turns to velvet, big-ice stirs in the glass, date-night toasts catch the patio glow.
This is what a full room feels like,and it’s already happening.
Glasses clinking, plates hitting the table, conversations overlapping in that perfect way. Every seat taken. Every table deep into something, another round, another dish, another reason to stay longer than planned.
This isn’t a quiet dinner. This is momentum.
The kind you walk into and instantly don’t want to leave.
Chef Kim Vu’s menu moves with the room, shareable plates, fire-finished mains, cocktails that keep pace. You come for dinner, but the energy is what locks you in.
Look around, this isn’t later. It’s now.

Let’s make this simple.
If you’re still deciding, someone else already booked your table.
Three spaces. One menu that actually delivers.
Cocktails that don’t miss. Food that justifies the night.
You don’t come here for one thing,you come because everything works.
Front Deck if you want the energy.
Back Patio if you want the moment.
Lounge if you’re not ready to leave.
There’s no “perfect time.” There’s just availability, and it’s shrinking.

This is what spring tastes like when it’s done right.
Shaved vegetables layered for texture, fresh herbs hitting bright, toasted elements bringing depth, and a dressing that pulls everything together, sharp, clean, addictive. Light enough to start. Good enough to fight over.
Every detail matters here. Knife work. Balance. Composition. This isn’t “just a salad”, it’s why people come back.
Start here, then go deeper into the menu. Trust the progression.
Back Patio is where this hits best right now.

Not all cocktails are built the same, and this one proves it.
Botanical-forward, citrus-cut, ice-crisp and dangerously smooth. This isn’t just a drink, it’s how your night starts… and usually how it spirals. Built with precision, balanced with intention, and poured for people who don’t do boring.
You don’t come to SNS for “a drink.” You come because one turns into three, and suddenly you’re ordering food you didn’t plan on (and finishing all of it).
Lounge Bar is already filling up. The people who know? They booked.

Anyone can pour wine. That’s easy.
What’s not easy is pairing it in a way that actually changes the experience, where the sip and the bite hit together and create something better than either one alone. That’s the level we’re playing at with this new menu.
Every pairing is intentional.
Every bottle has a reason to be there. And when it’s right, you feel it immediately, the kind of moment where you stop mid-conversation just to register what just happened. It’s subtle, but powerful.
And once you notice it, you can’t go back to random ordering.
So no, this isn’t just wine. It’s part of the experience.

This is the one people talk about after they leave.
The dish that gets quiet reactions first, then suddenly everyone at the table wants a bite. The one that shows up in stories, gets saved, gets recommended, gets ordered again next time without hesitation.
And here’s the reality: it doesn’t last forever.
Not because we take it off the menu randomly, but because menus evolve. Ingredients change. New dishes take their place. And sometimes, the thing you waited to try… disappears before you get to it.
That’s how it goes.
So if you’ve had it, you get it.
If you haven’t — this is your window.
Menu updates are coming. Not everything makes it through the next version.
Book your table. Don’t wait until it’s a “you should’ve tried it” situation.

It always starts the same way, “just one drink.”
Then the second comes faster than expected.
The third? That’s when you realize you’re not leaving anytime soon.
That’s intentional.
It starts with a drink. But it’s the food that keeps you here.
At Sorry Not Sorry, every bite is built to work with what you’re sipping.
The Vietnamese Organic Chicken Wings ($16), crispy, sticky, glazed in soy and sweet chile fish sauce. Salty, sweet, umami all at once.
Then the Kim Chi Quesadillas ($14), fermented cabbage, melted jack cheese, sour cream, guacamole. Funky, creamy, spicy, all hitting at once. Add chicken (+$4) and it levels up instantly.
This isn’t random pairing. It’s designed.
The right combo changes everything, if you know what to order.

Something new is coming, and if you’ve been here before, you already know we don’t do “basic updates.” 👀
At Sorry Not Sorry, every dish is built to hit on multiple levels — texture, balance, and that “wait… what is this?” moment.
Take the Baby Bok Choy Salad ($14) — crisp greens, sweet asian pear, peppery watermelon radish, toasted almonds for crunch, finished with a coriander lemon vinaigrette that wakes everything up. Clean, bright, addictive.
Or the Citrus Avocado Salad ($14) — creamy avocado, sharp citrus, hazelnuts, blue cheese. It’s fresh, rich, and layered in a way that keeps you going back for another bite.
This is how Chef Kim builds flavor — deliberate, balanced, and never boring.
And what’s coming next? It pushes even further.
Early drops aren’t for everyone, and they never last long.

You should’ve been there. Seriously.
A Seat for Her Dinner at Sorry Not Sorry LA wasn’t just a dinner, it was a moment. The kind people talk about after. The kind you wish you didn’t miss.
With the incredible presence of Kara Wang and the beautifully crafted wines from Amryn Winemakers, the night unfolded exactly how it should: effortless, elevated, unforgettable.
Guests didn’t just eat — they experienced every bite.
We kicked things off with bold, fresh flavors:
• Hearts of Palm Ceviche — bright, citrusy, layered with texture
• Avocado Chimichurri Bruschetta — herbaceous, creamy, addictive
• Herb Dijon Chicken Skewer — perfectly grilled, served with a rich dipping sauce
• Kim Chi Quesadilla — crispy, spicy, unapologetically good
Then we moved into the kind of dishes that slow things down (in the best way):
• Citrus Avocado Salad — fresh, vibrant, clean
• Miso Glazed Salmon — delicate, savory, perfectly balanced
• Fruit & Cheeses — curated, elevated, no shortcuts
• Vegan Warm Chocolate Brownie Sundae — because ending strong is non-negotiable
And then… the final champagne toast 🥂
Because every unforgettable night deserves a proper ending.
Laughter. Connection. Flavor. Energy.
That’s what filled the room.
And here’s the truth:
events like this don’t happen by accident.
They’re designed. Curated. Built with intention, from the menu to the last sip.
Missed this one?
Don’t make the same mistake twice.
👉 The next experience is already in motion.

LIVE with @therealkarawang - Wine Dinner
Two pours. Two energies. One night you’ll talk about for a long time. 🍷✨
This Sunday, March 22, *A Seat For Her Dinner* isn’t just a reservation, it’s a story unfolding in your glass.
We begin light, bright, and alive with **Amryn Sauvignon Blanc** crisp, elegant, effortlessly vibrant. Poured during the 4PM reception alongside curated bites. The kind of first sip that says: *you made the right move coming here.*
Then… the mood shifts.
At 5PM, we go deeper with **Amryn Pinot Noir** , richer, silkier, layered with intention. Paired with a 4-course family-style dinner designed to slow time down. This is where the magic lives: in the pauses, the laughter, the eye contact over a glass half full.
All of it guided by **Kara Wang**, founder of Amryn Winery, alongside **Chef Kim Vu** two forces shaping flavor, emotion, and experience into one seamless night.
⚠️ Early Bird tickets: $69 (until TODAY - LAST CALL)
After that, the price rises — the experience only gets richer.
