The Liquid Art House (L.A.H.) is a beautiful dining experience. Reviewers across the board have raved that it is unlike any other restaurant they have seen, and that it feels like they are dining in the center of a museum or art gallery. Funky pieces of art adorn the walls, and every style choice down to the chairs serves an artistic purpose. Even the bathrooms are aesthetically pleasing, and could be featured in their own modern art exhibit. Pair this incredible ambiance with L.A.H.’s delicious menu, and it is hard to find fault with anything here.
