Mélisse in Santa Monica holds two Michelin stars, showcasing Chef Josiah Citrin’s California-French tasting menu in an intimate 14-seat setting. The experience highlights seasonal ingredients and refined technique, blending local flavors with classic French elegance.

Came to Mélisse to celebrate my husband’s birthday. The food was AMAZING. Every dish was so creative and presented beautifully. It was definitely one of our top fine dining experiences. The staff was attentive but not overbearing and so friendly. 

Mélisse is an intimate 5 table seating but without all the stuffiness. Each table had the chairs pointed toward the kitchen so you can see the chef at work and the dishes being prepared.
