Since then, they have expanded their Southern California footprint beginning with Herb & Wood in 2016. Their portfolio now includes Herb & Sea in Encinitas, ANIMAE in Downtown San Diego, Herb & Ranch in Irvine, and Le Coq in La Jolla, reflecting a wide range of dining concepts. The group emphasizes culinary and design expertise across formats, tailoring projects to fit space and client relationships.
