PLACE

Plateia — Ancient Greek for a Place to Meet, Celebrate & Feast!

In the spirit of its name, Plateia is a central place on the historic UCLA campus to meet colleagues and friends, share inspired food and drink, and engage in conversation. Recharge in the warm wood and stained glass ambiance of our dining room or relax with a glass of fine wine on our expansive patio under heritage olive trees.

FOOD

Tried & True Meets Innovative & New! What’s Not to Like?

The Plateia menu is Mediterranean-inspired, California-fresh. Enjoy dishes from seasonal offerings with bright flavors and bold presentations featuring locally sourced products such as seasonal fruits and vegetables, artisanal cheeses, sustainable seafood, and much more. Find food to fit your mood from deliciously healthful choices, to surprising comfort foods, to innovative options that expand your food experience and excite your palate.

PEOPLE

This team of creative and skilled culinary professionals knows how to use tradition for inspiration and how to capture the difference that fresh and local make to flavor and quality.

Here’s a Tip. Plateia is Gratuity-Free…Really!

Plateia is a gratuity-free restaurant for à la carte service — we pride ourselves in directly investing in our staff by providing a fair wage that is not dependent on tips.
