Mother’s Day brunch. No champagne toast limited overpriced menu. Typically this restaurant is great but not on Mother’s Day. I would never go there for a limited brunch ever again

Arrived on a Friday night at 530. Waited 15 minutes to get a drink when one bartender didn’t seem to be doing much but putting away glasses. Martinis should be served in martini glasses and filled to the top especially for $16. I liked that you transfer bar bill to table. Thank you. Food is always good here but price point a little high. And what is the 3% added tax to the bill? I found that really disappointing. And the arrogance of stating on the menu that no substitutions are allowed left me thinking that for this price point one should be able to do that. Vince was great waiter and offered wine tasting and when I didn’t like first one he offered another one. Service at table was great and timely. We live in town and there are many wonderful restaurants in Laguna so I hope this feedback helps. Competition is stiff here.

We came here to celebrate our anniversary. Our reservation was on a Sunday night so we were a bit surprised when we requested to change our reservation from 6:45 to 7:00 (we just wanted to enjoy our day in Laguna a bit more) they said "it would be best for you to arrive at 6:45"...which we did...but saw multiple empty tables during our entire dinner! Food was excellent again (this was our second time here) but the service was a bit unorganized at first..multiple people asked us if we wanted a cocktail, yet it took forever to get our drinks (they ended up not charging us for the drinks). Other than that everything was wonderful!! The food definitely made up for the other things!!

I have been looking forward to dining at Broadway because I admire chef Amar's style and creativity. I came with a group of 4 others for a celebration and we enjoyed ourselves. There were some highlights and lowlights as to be expected. The highlights included the cocktails (Loucette was fresh and unsweet, a nice balance of bright flavors), the hamachi (that sauce was incredible, bright, acidic and sweet), the pork belly (again, the sauce was the highlight, just a unique flavor combination, dynamite), and the skirt steak with chimichurri (Amar is killing it with the sauces because we asked for more). The smaller plates are fun to share and try a few different dishes. The lowlight was unfortunately my main dish. My friend and I both ordered the pork as a main. Our server said it was one of the best, most popular item on the men,u and the description looked bold and flavorful, so we ordered it with excitement. However, perhaps since we had tasted so many amazing things already, when it came, it was overcooked and quite bland. I think I had 4 bites and that was enough to make me not want to keep eating it. The other dish that left me unsatisfied was the octopus small plate. The texture was quite nice, but the flavor of the octopus seemed overly fishy. I've had a lot of octopus and it was just off unfortunately. Overall, the service was friendly and the food was tasty. The misses were noticeable (no one at our table thought the pork was a good dish) but can be avoided by future guests.
