Le Comptoir

About Le Comptoir

Le Comptoir is Chef Gary Menes's culinary perspective, served counter-side. He features a daily changing menu showcasing seasonal ingredients sourced from his own organic urban garden, Gladys Ave Farm in Long Beach, highlighted by innovative and classical techniques. Le Comptoir is a 10-person, counter-only, dining experience that focuses on Menes’ philosophy of showcasing ingredients, which he has been farming for the last two years. The objective is to demystify fine dining, omitting white table cloths and multiple sets of silverware in favor of a fun, interactive and informative setting. Menes is behind the counter, feeding, delighting and educating diners on the culinary lessons that have made him who he is today.
