"Good place to eat if you have weekend activity on the USC campus to attend. Ambience could be improved upon so that it is less like a school lunchroom."

"I wasn't sure what to expect with a restaurant next to a hotel, but boy was I surprised! The very cordial hostess sat us promptly and then Tony the waiter took over and we had a remarkable dinner. Following his lead, I had a huge Blackened Salmon salad with Chipotle dressing, beans, corn and fresh bermuda onion. Huge and low priced, well worth it. My date enjoyed a white fish called Escolar. She was so impressed with the presentation, served over potatoes with a wonderful butternut squash garnish, that she actually took a picture of it! Tony was very personable at the table which really made everthing very enjoyable. As the Governator said "I B Baack""

"We were so pleased with the meal and service at McKay's. Our group enjoyed chicken, a lamb burger, and pistachio-crusted salmon. Portions were VERY generous and the food was excellent. We will definitely return there again in the future!!"

"The new york steak was delicious and served well done. Restaurant was modern furnished, setting was fit for couples and groups, and the service was excellent; the restaurant manager even took time to seat us himself. They also let you bring your own bottle of wine or champagne. Will definitely return in the near future."

"Not so great. Out of synch, especially service and with odd parking policies. I would have hoped for more, better food and ambiance, especially a place near USC named McKay's. Too bad. Would not go back."
