    The overall experience was just average and Food overpriced. Food was tasty though. This is a restaurant that advertises high-end dining experience but really doesn't deliver

    Everything was very good to great: the service, ambiance... The food was excellent and the quantity of food was great. The only thing wrong way was the menu listed by Salmon at $40 and they charged me $ 42. It was not worth the $2 to make a fuss with the waitress but it left a bad taste in my mouth after a great meal.

    Perfect place for dinner! The food was excellent. I’m still dreaming about the Mac and cheese. All of the dishes were creative and fresh. We enjoyed the sunset and ocean views from the patio, and it was just as lovely after dark with the soft lighting and the fire pit. The staff was perfectly attentive and friendly. There was only thing we didn’t like and that was the music. It didn’t fit the vibe of the location inside nor out. But it was soft enough that we could talk over it. Will definitely come back again with friends.

    Had higher expectations after reading other reviews, but came here on our anniversary, very disappointing. The waiter was ok, brought the drink menus and asked if we wanted bread, mentioning there was a $5 charge. Bread was good but certainly nothing special. It was our anniversary tho, so throwing caution to the wind, we said sure. So they bring the fancy swirl butter with it, and it was so saturated with garlic, we couldn't eat it. When we mentioned to the waiter and asked for regular butter, he said, no one's ever said that before, but yes he would get us some. Next, the glasses of wine came and they do give a nice full pour, will give them credit for that. After that, we had 2 appetizers, scallops and grilled cauliflower, both were good. Then things got a little off. My wife and I both ordered the fresh catch special, blackened halibut ($40), side dishes are extra. My wife asked if they could grill it instead of getting it blackened. The waiter said he doesn't think they do that on the specials. My wife said, can you check? He agreed and checked and then said , yes, they can do that. Then, when we got our dinners, both of them were way overcooked, ruining the dish. They were very tough and dry. Also, we ordered 2 sides, mashed potatoes and broccolini. The mashed potatoes had so much salt in them, we couldn't even eat them, and I love salt on my potatoes, I usually even add some. But this was ridiculous, maybe the lid fell off the salt shaker in the kitchen? And the broccolini had a mustard sauce all over it that was so tart, it was hard to eat. This place has potential I guess, but whoever is cooking seems to go overboard on everything, i.e. food was overcooked, too much garlic, too much salt, too much mustard sauce. We can cut some slack if an item or 2 are off, but too many things were just not good. And there are lots of other better options around, especially at this price point.

    So glad we decided to stay close to our hotel and give this restaurant try! The food was absolutely delicious and came out extremely quick and hot! For starters we dined on the Diver Scallops and Stuffed Squash Blossoms both were great. For entrees we decided on the Salmon and New York Strip. Both were delicious but the steak definitely stole the show super juicy and tender with every bite definitely recommend! Great service, ambience was amazing!

    I hardly ever write a review, but I am compelled to do so this time. We had a fabulous meal last night. Started w a salmon appetizer which was beautiful and sooo yummy. We both had the chicken and I can’t say enough good things about it. Let’s just call it amazing, beautiful, generous, tasty… We actually couldn’t stop talking about it. Kudos to the chef! Please don’t ever leave 20/Twenty- or leave us a message as to where you are going!! 😊

    We booked brunch here on a Sunday on the way back to LA from San Diego. We had no idea it was connected to Legoland. 🤦‍♀️ Screaming kids, very loud live music, super overwhelmed waitstaff (not their fault), and pretty basic hotel food. It took us over an hour to get a tea, coffee & one salmon eggs benedict w fruit. And it was $53! I’m sure this is fine for families just trying to get some calories but not for anything else.

    My husband and I used to come here for dinner pre-COVID. Always good ambience and wonderfully customer service. Plus the food was great. Decided to come out with our kids to have brunch. Our food came out but we’re missing an order of pancakes. Thought No big deal, maybe she couldn’t carry out 3 plates at the same time. We waited for our waiter to come back with our pancakes. 15 minutes passed. She finally comes out from the back with plates. I’m thinking okay here comes our pancakes. Nothing it was for another guest who came in after we have ordered. It doesn’t take that long to make pancakes!!! It wasn’t busy either. There were only 2 other couples at the time. Another waitress was assisting the couple inside the restaurant and our waitress was assisting the couple outside. I caught her attention and asked her about the pancakes. She looked over at our table and said oh you’re missing another plate. If she would checked on us earlier she would have noticed my toddler didn’t have her food. She goes to back and comes out 5 minutes later. She brings out pancakes and they were cold. Didn’t offer to bring out a new one. She said sorry it was sitting in the kitchen and that she forgot because she got too busy. Didn’t even offer a new order for the inconvenience. Who wants to eat cold pancakes? At this point we were ready to leave. Once again She still didn’t come out to check how the food was or if we needed another drink. Horrible customer service. The other waitress came out often to check on the other couple and even interacted with them. If she would have been our waitress we would stayed longer. Overall the customer service was not great and would not come again. Horrible customer service

    Took my husband here for his birthday dinner with my son and his fiancee. Both my son and spouse enjoyed their food (they ordered the steak). I ordered the catch of the day, which was pistachio crusted Halibut. It had zero seasoning. Everything on my plate had no flavor. My son's fiancee, ordered the salmon and had the same issue. I couldn't eat my food, and nor did she. When the server asked how things were and my husband responded, he just walked away. Never offered anything. I couldn't even get salt and pepper to try to put some flavor into my meal. Mind, you this was a meal that I paid $445.00 for (which included the tip that the server didn't deserve).

    My first time I came here on a date with my boyfriend they forgot about us we waited over an hour before getting our first drink,But the food was really good, so we decided to give it another chance, for my daughter’s graduation dinner. We had our own little room, my family was happy and impressed with the food, a little pricey but so worth it

    when I was looking for a restaurant I checked the 20 Westin website to look at the menu. When we were seated, we were given a completely different menu with fewer entree options and selections we did not really want. Music was not appealing and our booth faced the door to the kitchen so all we saw was staff going in and out. Would not recommend this place.
