Crustacean: A southern California institution. The family-run, Vietnamese fusion restaurant has been around since 1991, with chef Helene An, the matriarch of the business, opening the Beverly Hills location in 1995. The spot even has its own secret entrance for celebrities. Lakzani and her husband seem to be regulars. Get the whimsical tuna cigars like they did, and order her cocktail “Daughter of the Dragon” for a bit of spice from the Thai chili-infused vodka. 468 N. Bedford Drive, Beverly Hills

Crustacean is one of those old, legacy restaurants that would be easy to write off if the food weren’t so good. Their website has photos of celebrities like Viola Davis and Margot Robbie, the dining room feels like a Las Vegas nightclub, and half of the menu is trademarked. However, they offer some killer turmeric glass noodles, very good coconut cake, and thick garlic noodles coated in “Chef An’s secret sauce.” Much like Cher’s performance in Moonstruck, these are just as wonderful as everyone says.

Modern Vietnamese fare by chef Helene An is what it is all about at Crustacean. Nearly every smart table will start with the smoky tuna tartare cigars and the crispy crab bites. Don’t sleep on the famous garlic noodles or the garlic-roasted Dungeness crab served in or out of its shell — go big and get both. The best part is seeing An herself working the dining room and making friends with everyone.
