Diner Reviews

"The hotel view is definitely worth the hype. A treat in the Bel-Air neighborhood. I got the pancakes, scrambled eggs and apple sausage. Everything was great."

"The food was excellent. Try the filet with bacon. The salmon with forbidden rice was very good as well. Decent wine list with good recommendations from the waiter."

"The restaurant is beautiful and you can't beat the view. The waitstaff can be cold, but the food is delicious!"

"If you're in a hurry, this is definitely not the place to go. The place was empty for our 11 a.m. reservation, and they took so long to get their act together that we had to have them box it up for take out before they even served it. My $ 11 tip was totally undeserved."

"We dined here with friends based upon a few good Yelp reviews I had read, and because the location was right. The views were definitely impressive. My husband's salmon was outstanding, our friend's Barramundi was heavenly. The scallops in our appetizer were great, but the risotto under them was under cooked. I made the mistake of ordering the gnocci (I admit to being entranced by the name, Ruby and Amethyst or something like that!) Anyway, I am no gnocci expert but this just tasted like mushy small potatoes in a very heavy cheese sauce. The service was good, the wine was excellent and it was a very enjoyable evening for the most part. But if I were trying to impress someone with an outstanding place, I would not take them here."

"We were meeting with friends from Altadena and Long Beach, and we were staying in Westwood. West was a super find. Easy for all of us to get to with very good food and that sensational view. The place was almost empty for lunch. People, you are missing out!"

"The Hotel Angeleno has always been a great location, BUT with all the freeway and road construction in the Sepulveda Pass, it has been way less than convenient to go there over the past year or two, BUT after "Jamzilla" was finally over, I decided that my wife and I would try it again, so we invited another couple and it was BETTER THAN EVER!!! The wine choices include some incredible finds from very local wineries and they also make killer cocktails!!!! there is quite a selection of whiskies, including some very fine single malt scotch -- beyond just Glenlivet, which every Bar has (and should have)... The food was OUTSTANDING!!!! I had the Ribeye Steak, which was sublime perfection!!!! Dessert was awesome carrot cake."

"This is in regards to the special Valentine's Day 4 course meal. Food was great, however the service was *very* slow. Normally on a night like Valentines, I'd think that maybe the kitchen would be overwhelmed, but while the restaurant was mostly full, it definitely wasn't *packed* (lots of empty tables that I could see) so it would be curious if that were that case. However the wait staff seemed cognizant of this fact and were generous with bread and complimentary champagne. Overall a good meal and pleasant dining experience."

"West is a great place to meet, eat and look down on Los Angeles. It is an amazing view and the food will not disappoint."
Dined on 2/12/2014
"Our food was gorgeous and delicious. The Crab Louie salad and panacotta, yum! Definitely go for the food. Service was strange. The person was pleasant but not consistent and didn't seem to want to be there. Also, the air conditioning blows on you very strong to counter act the sun coming through the windows. Would be great if they could find the right balance."
Dined on 2/10/2014
"We ordered a bunch of starters, as none of the main courses jumped out. The ricotta fritter with root vegetables and some sort of maple sauce was outstanding. Fritter is really a misnomer, and did not describe the dish, but it was the best of the four we ordered. The restaurant is on the 17th floor of the old Sunset Holiday Inn (now called Hotel Angelino). Great views, although avoid it during the 405 shut down."

"I had an out of town client reserve a room while we managed an event at the Luxe on Sunset. We set up a follow-up meeting the morning after for breakfast at The West. Thank you to the staff for making her feel welcome, excellent service and food. And, when I left my iPhone case they were kind enough to make it a priority to look for the case with credit cards. They did and called me directly back so an assistant could return. Thank you to Hotel Angeleno. We now have other clients booked for events later this week!"

"I went here recently for dinner with a party of four. The food was overall very good and fairly priced for what it was. Two issues I had....one was the service. We had a rather long wait at the table before anyone came to us. Bread did not appear until well into the meal. Out of three courses, the previous plates were never cleared before the new ones came. Secondly the restaurant seems to be having an identity crisis. Overall decor and menu say, high end, classy restaurant. But the hotel seems to be trying to cater also to a bar scene. Young people dressed in either prom attire and business men where all mingling at the bar which had loud house music blaring for an empty dance floor. Luckily we we seated far away."

"A very convenient location and a great view. Reasonably priced. Great that their brunch menu is a la carte and not a buffet - much more economical and diet-conscious."
Dined on 1/19/2014
"Four of us (my husband and our two adult children) went on a Saturday night and it was about half full. We had a drink in the bar before dinner and the drinks were very good. Our waiter was knowledgeable and attentive. We all had a different dish. The sea bass was really good. Filet was done exactly as requested. Our special requests were happily accommodated. The view was nice and the overall feeling of the place was peaceful. It was a peaceful and relaxing evening, like a little mini-vacation."

"This is a great place to dine for lunch or dinner, the food is scrumptious and the servings are quite generous with inviting presentation. They also make a great martini and the views are fantastic."

"The lobster mac n' cheese was divine! The scallops were excellent, cooked perfectly. Service was spot on. We will definitely be returning to West soon!"

"This was my first visit to West, and GM Jonathan Mitchell definitely did not disappoint. This restaurant is a hidden gem with fantastic views and a solid menu. The service was fantastic and friendly and pricing is very reasonable. Try the duck three ways, the sausage was amazing. I will definitely make this a regular stop in L.A."

"West is a fun place to hang out with friends, eat and enjoy a cocktail. Food and service is good and on a clear night you can't beat the view. I'll be bach!"

"A wonderful dining experience on the 17th floor of the Angeleno Hotel. Breathtaking view at night of ribbons of red and white lights along the 405. Started with drinks and duo chickpea appetizer in the lounge facing the incredible view. Moved on to dinner with a view - - my game hen with couscous was perfectly cooked and very yummy. Service was attentive and pleasant. I was happy."

"My wife and I stayed at the hotel for 4 days, and we found almost no reason to eat anywhere else. Great food and even better service. Would recommend without any hesitation."
Dined on 12/14/2013
"The food is good, the service is friendly, and the view is absolutely amazing."

"We had the 5 course meal selected by the chef with wine pairing. Each course was outstanding & the wine was paired perfectly. The service was wonderful & the chef checked on us personally."
Dined on 11/12/2013
"Amazing service and great food made our special night an absolute occasion. Met the sous chef to give him our compliments, only to have him send us a dessert platter on the house right after."
Dined on 11/7/2013
"This place has improved 300% in the last two years. The menu is exciting and they have a solid wine selection. Even the bar menu has good options if you just want something small. I highly recommend their gnocchi, their pork, and their steak options. Our main server was incredibly professional. The dining room was full of dressed up (not casual) guests and the seats are incredibly comfortable. And yet the management seemed fine letting some bar patrons keep yelling at the football on the TV. At some point they may have to decide if they want this to be a hotel bar/lounge or an upscale restaurant. At this point, it seems to have a slight identity confusion. But all said, it was a wonderful dinner. We will return for sure."

"Amazing view, great ambience. We joined family and my daughter a student at ucla. Great location for visiting UCLA. Food quality is excellent and reasonable prices. We have dined here 3 times. The waiters are very nice but the food is soooooo slow coming out. Same problem every time we eat here."

"the food was excellent , the service was not . with one exception , our waiter Jamie who was great, the other members of staff were not on their game at all. The food was memorable, but the whole dining experience took two and a half hours, just as well we had no where else to go that night"

"Overpriced. Loud music coming from bar. Poor service. One of my worst restaurant experiences in last 12 months. Would not recommend."

"Really enjoyed dinner at West at the Hotel Angeleno. First, the bar makes a really delicious Negroni. Our waiter Carlos was a gem and his recommendation of the salmon with "forbidden" rice turned out to be delightful. Since we are in the neighborhood, we plan to return."
