The decor of RDEN is the perfect mix of sleek, modern style merged with the timeless old Hollywood glamour of the historic area the restaurant resides in. Royal blue furnishings contrasted with oak wood & gold finishings give the bar and dining area a chic aesthetic that is stylish without been too overtly extravagant.
