About Kali

Watch Kali on TikTok

Chef Kevin Meehan's Michelin-starred Melrose restaurant operates with a relentless focus on what's at peak season in Southern California. The menu changes constantly — a reflection of relationships with small farms and foragers — and each plate is composed with precision. The room is intimate and warm without being stuffy, and the à la carte menu makes a Michelin meal accessible outside of full tasting format. One of the Eastside's quietest overachievers.
