After opening critically acclaimed Lucques in 1998, the duo of 3 time James Beard Award winning chef Suzanne Goin (Best Chefs in America - California 2006, Best Cookbook - Cooking from a Professional Point of View 2006, Outstanding Chef 2016, Who's Who of Food & Beverage in America 2017) and Caroline Styne (James Beard Foundation’s Outstanding Restaurateur of the Year 2018) embarked on A.O.C., the pioneering wine bar that first paired an indulgent list of wine by the glass with a menu of market-driven small plates.
In December 2024, A.O.C. was inducted into the prestigious Los Angeles Times Restaurant Hall of Fame.
