Grass-fed beef restaurants on the Westside?
What Westside restaurants do you know of, that are good, that sell grass-fed beef - burgers, steaks or whatever?
There's a useful thread here about where to find the cheapest grass-fed beef in STORES on the Westside, but I'm talking about dining out:

O! Burger in WeHo
Bloom Cafe on Pico
Boa Steakhouse in SM & WeHo
X'otik in Culver City
8 oz. Burger Bar in WeHo
Let's Be Frank (grass-fed beef hot dogs) in Culver City
Food on Pico in WLA
Lucky Devils in Hollywood
and finally, Cafe Surfas in Culver City serves a buffalo burger, but i don't know if it's grass-fed.
BTW, if any of these places have closed recently, i apologize - the restaurant scene here in NY has taken many unexpected hits this year, so you never know.

I had a good grass fed new york strip at Dakota at the Roosevelt Hotel last week. most of their selection is dry aged corn fed, but they do have a grass fed ny strip and ribeye on the menu.

X'otik - I've driven by there and "have meant to stop by some time," but was wondering if anyone has tried this place? Is it Indo-fusiony?

Haven't been yet but the new La Cachette Bistro in SM appears to have a grass fed burger and a grass fed skirt steak on the menu -- both very good bets to be quality.

The Counter serves grass fed burgers.

Just wondered where you saw that? I know that their website says they serve "fresh 100% natural angus beef" which is "hormone and antibiotic free" and "humanely raised / handled" but I never noticed anything about it being grass fed beef.

Servorg is right - according to an ABC affiliate interview from last year with managing partner Peter Katz, The Counter doesn't serve grass-fed beef...
"The Counter uses corn fed because in blind taste tests, our customers prefer the rich beef flavor that a corn diet provides. Also, grass fed beef has a slightly gamier flavor."
