Lovely food, great service

never got our dinner, to make up for it they brought us a dessert with nuts in it after stating I had a nut allergy

Had to wait for a certain number of people of our party to get there before being seated, even though we were just waiting on one more person, so that was kind of weird. Also took roughly 45 minutes for drinks to get to the table (our food arrived before our drinks did) Was informed at the bar that it was backed up, so that may have been the issue. Overall though, food tasted amazing and it's a nice vibe / great for photos.

The food was amazing- the fries were the best I have ever had, the french dip sliders were stellar, the chicken meatballs and the scallops were also so good. The service was attentive and our plates were cleared promptly. It was our first time, and as a result of how great it was in LA, we are going to check out the Las Vegas location where we live.

We had excellent experience from checking in, food and service.

Great vibes and a great atmosphere. Not a lot of cocktails choices beyond sweet drinks. The service and staff were both awesome and the food came out quickly.

Beautiful location great food friendly service. We will be back

We so enjoyed our meal and experience. The front staff was a bit unwelcoming at first. The guard was a bit unfriendly too. However, once in the bar, the service was friendly and enjoyable. The dining hall downstairs was enjoyed too. The waitress know the menu and the food tastes. We started of with pearls from the sea , unbelievable good and ended with sorbet and coffee. A most enjoyable evening. We will be sure to return.

The host accommodated our request to move away from a very loud table, but that was the highlight of the service. The main server was friendly, but the support team kept diluting our sparkling water with still water and it was off service. They kept messing with the lights and the music volume. It was a very odd experience from a restaurant I used to like pre-2020. Chaotic and poor service at 7:30 on a Friday.

I came here for my birthday over the weekend. My guests and I had such a great time. Great food and great service and I'd definitely come back. Highly recommend!
