I've been to many, many spas in Los Angeles and this one is by far my favorite. The best massage of my life, aveda products and it is never too crowded. My biggest complaint about many LA area spas are that they are too darn crowded...who wants to squeeze in a hot tub that is overflowing with people to the point where there is no where to sit? The last two times I went to Amedeus at the Grove we had the entire steam room to ourselves. It was heavenly and felt like we owned the whole place.

Beautiful location. Saw a deer drinking from the creek while dining outside. However, for the price the food was really mediocre...even downright bland. I wouldn't suggest doing a large function there unless you get to select (and taste) your menu first.

They've been around forever and can do anything! I love, love their cakes and their ability to create almost anything you want. I didn't use them for wedding cake but have used them countless times for birthday cakes, anniversary cakes and other functions through the years.

Buyers beware! Got my dress there and was NOT happy with their service. They said the dress would arrive within 3 months and 5 months later I was still waiting. They finally gave me an estimated arrival date that was a week after my wedding. I told them this was completely unacceptable and they scrambled to get me my dress.
So they *did* get the dress on time (a week before) but it was HUGE. I mean HUGE, HUGE, HUGE. My measurements fit between a size 2-4 and this dress just fell off me. I ended up spending over $350 on alterations (plus a $150 rush fee) there and the dress never did fit exactly right. The bra cups that they sewed in were crooked. I ended up taking them out and re-sewing it myself the night before my wedding.
Weeks later (after the wedding) I took a good look at the inside tags on the dress and they were all cut out...with the exception of one single size tag on the detachable sheer shirt/shawl thing that I didn't even wear. It said size 8! They gave me the wrong size and just cut out the tags!
