A "cursed" restaurant location in the heart of Beverly Hills had changed hands five times in as many years.  We transformed the space from its current incarnation as a trendy Mexican spot into a homey, residential-style bistro.  Drawing upon the traditional style of the heyday of Beverly Hills, we added traditional millwork, chose classic colors and injected some special touches like a Serge Mouille light fixture and the owners' art collection ranging from Dennis Doheny oils to a Robert Rauschenberg collage.
