Dialog Cafe – Equinox

Jerry and Ken were super on top of it—responsive, nimble, and knowledgeable. The team met every deadline and handled equipment changes and health department surprises with ease. I had no concerns and gave perfect scores across the board.

The team has been helpful not only in design but also during construction. The response and communications have been good and prompt. We appreciate Tamara and Bassam being very quick in responding to RFIs, especially during construction when things are moving very rapidly.

Project Overview

MEP engineering for the Dialog Cafe – Equinox project supports the modification of an existing restaurant and café located within the Equinox facility at 8766 Holloway Drive in West Hollywood, California. The renovation focuses on updating the mechanical and plumbing systems to support the café’s operational requirements while meeting applicable Health Department standards.

The project required a coordinated MEP engineering approach to integrate new building systems within the existing tenant space, ensuring reliable performance for food service operations and compliance with regulatory requirements.

Project Scope

MEP engineering services include mechanical and plumbing design for the renovation of the existing restaurant and café. The design supports modifications to the food service space and provides the documentation necessary for Health Department approval.

Engineering efforts focus on coordinating HVAC and plumbing systems that support commercial kitchen operations, occupant comfort, and efficient facility performance while integrating with the existing building infrastructure.
