Son of a Gun

An Ode to The Sea

Jon Shook and Vinny Dotolo, the duo behind the popular meat-centric Animal, are bringing LA gourmands a piece of their Floridian roots with the seafood studded menu at Son of a Gun. It’s a small space with a laid back vibe, a long communal table and walls covered in kitschy nautical knick-knacks. The exquisite raw dishes, the delicate lobster roll with lemon aioli and shrimp toast sandwich are the stars of the menu when it comes to seafood, but I’d make a trip to the West Coast just for the fried chicken sandwich. Finish the meal with a scoop of frozen lime yogurt with toasted meringue and graham cracker crumble, it’s a sinful take on key lime pie.
