Why go
Book Formosa Cafe when the room matters as much as the meal. The restored West Hollywood landmark is strongest for red-booth atmosphere, Chinese-American and Asian-fusion à la carte dining, cocktails, a social night out; it is less suited to diners looking for a chef-led tasting menu or a sourcing-focused culinary statement.
