What Makes Us Unique

You would be joining a team of true restaurant hospitality professionals who are driven by quality, consistency and integrity with everything we do.  We provide a positive, professional environment and constantly drive towards excellence.  We value each individual team member and take a personalized approach to their growth. These same philosophies are carried through with our guests, vendors and everyone who we interact with. Alliance Hospitality Group is a growing company and we are looking for team members to grow with us.

Our Concept
A high-end steak and seafood eatery that will provide Angelinos with an enticing combination of succulent steaks, delectable seafood dishes and cultivated mixology with sophisticated old-school service in a modern, fine dining setting. Our concept will also serve as a sought after lunch destination, with a day menu offering an array off salads and lighter entrees at a lower price point.

Atmosphere
Our steakhouse will provide guests with a unique and invigorating ambiance. The rare-to-find terrace offers an airy, charming area with a retractable awning for a brunch or lunch encounter, as well as a classic, candle-lit atmosphere in the evenings. The interior’s daylight hours will serve as an amiable dining space soaked with sunrays as they shine through an enormous skylight, creating a stunning environment for business and casual lunches.

With music pouring from a grand piano and a warm glow exuding from the indoor fireplace, these elements will allow guests to enjoy the best quality steaks in Los Angeles in a restaurant steeped in elegance and sophistication.

Both the interior and exterior of the restaurant serve as the perfect setting for corporate meetings, private parties, award banquets, or VIP restaurant functions. The private dining area has been designed to encompass a wide range of appeal, including serving as an elegant event space for any type of occasion.
