ABOUT A.O.C.

The ground-breaking small plates menu that revolutionized dining in Los Angeles opened on Third Street near The Grove in 2002. Moving to a new location in 2013, A.O.C. added a wood-burning oven, a craft cocktail bar and expanded their biodynamic, organic or sustainably-grown collection of wines curated by Caroline Styne. Adding a second location in 2021, A.O.C in Brentwood is redesigned by the acclaimed L.A.-based design firm Nickey Kehoe, known for their well-honed aesthetic—a masterful combination of traditional inspiration alongside contemporary elegance, equilibrium, and enchantment. The decor encompasses three interior dining spaces: the main bar room with cozy velvet booths and banquettes, a long rough-hewn communal table and a spectacular charcoal wood back bar with mirror detail. A second dining room in gorgeous hues of green runs along the Darlington Avenue side of the building. A.O.C. now offers an intimate private dining room perfect for gatherings of up to 40 guests. The rooms are vibrant and cozy with beautifully textured fabrics, lively yet sophisticated wallpapers and charming Nickey-Kehoe-designed lighting. Local darling Fi Campbell Landscapes has created a beautiful new outdoor dining landscape.
