Michelin-Starred Chef Marcus Jernmark Opens Lielle Restaurant in Los Angeles

Marcus Jernmark, a Swedish chef with Michelin recognition from his work at Aquavit in New York, has launched his first U.S. restaurant called Lielle in Beverlywood, Los Angeles. Named after his daughter, the 42-seat underground dining space was designed in collaboration with Lovers Unite and features a wine-cave atmosphere with European craftsmanship and California influences. The restaurant offers a four-course seasonal tasting menu under the California Bistronomy concept, emphasizing local ingredients with European techniques, including a notable bread program and dishes like miso sourdough and spaghetti with sea urchin. The establishment provides a relaxed, family-style dining experience despite its fine dining credentials, located at 9575 W Pico Blvd.
