AAA Diamond Inspector Notes
Led by celebrated chef Tony Esnault, Knife Pleat is a new, contemporary French restaurant located on the penthouse level of the South Coast Plaza. The atmosphere is chic and refined, as is the highly-seasonal menu. Indulge in a full caviar service before a beautifully light entree of violet artichokes, saffron braised chickpeas and sauce barigoule, or the Crescent Farm duck with ruby beets and strawberry mostarda. Be sure to secure a box of their popular Parisian macarons to take home.
