   Elevated hotel restaurant. Our server Michael S. was attentive and patient, his service made the visit worth eating at a higher-priced venue. We sat next to the large fire pit and pool, the low music was great and the vibe was calm and ideal for a Sunday night. Food was good, but it could be better for the price. Drinks were excellent. The entire place is insta worthy, inside and out. Would highly recommend.

   Literally the worst food and service I have ever had and a $250 bill to top it off.

   Cute spot for a special occasion, especially birthdays or bachelorette parties. The ambiance of the place is nice and very instagrammable. The food itself was OK and a bit pricey for what it was. All our dishes were good (pigs in a blanket, Waldorf salad, steak) but nothing outstanding.

   Celebration for my birthday. Light meal and cocktails with family. Enjoyed the “Flamingo Spritz”. Beautiful presentation. Could have been stronger, but it was tasty. The Bloody Mary is a meal in itself. Everything we ate was delicious. Comfortable setting outside. Would go again.

   Great food and excellent service! The brunch was out of this world good! Only complaint was that the booth tables had VERY sharp edges that tore my shirt.

   We had a great time with family. The food and drinks were amazing, and the atmosphere felt lively but not crazy. The only drag was that our initial drink order too a while to arrive, and one dinner item was forgotten for a minute so it came later than the rest of the meal. But that didn't deter the overall good time we had this evening. We'll definitely come back.

   Unfortunately this is some of the worst restaurant food I’ve ever had. I expected it might be a 6 dressed up as a 9 but the food was unseasoned and, ultimately, disgusting. Waffle fries were decent.

    The food was amazing! Unique menu with great flavor and portions. It was my first time here, and I was a little bit worried driving up, as it looks like the front fence is badly in need of a new paint job, and the restaurant does not reflect well from the outside. The ambience on the inside was great, however. While everybody was super nice, the service was extremely slow, especially for how few tables actually had people at them. For the price we were paying, I certainly expected more attentive service. It took about 35 minutes for the first round of drinks to arrive, and about eight minutes for the server to initially come over to our table. Overall, we enjoyed our dinner because we had a lot of time there. I’m not sure if I will be going back anytime soon though until they figure out their service issues.

    Nobody was there, but the service was still very slow, so I’m not sure why that was. The menu was a little bit challenging for special-needs eaters. It was a little expensive for the particular food, but the food was good.

    Food is creative and generally well executed. We were there on a cold night so we’re back in the booths, which don’t give you as good an experience of the room. We had a question on the menu and the guy who brought our food (not our server) said he had no idea what the ingredient printed on the menu was. Seems kind of unforgivable for staff not to know menu. The when we ordered a second glass of $19 Sancerre, it didn’t show up until we asked two more times. Have been here for lunch and the laid back service was more consistent with expectations. But if they are shooting for upscale creative chic, they have to improve their game.

    Well, we were so excited to come based on all we had heard and especially for a Saturday night. Upon arrival we were told no live music as the DJ had not shown. Our waiter was nice but not overly good, we asked about the bird glass drink and said we wanted to try it and he said he didn’t think they had clean glasses… then finally after some back and forth everyone who ordered the drink was served one which we thanked him but wondered if they were clean. One of our group is sick today with upset stomach etc. and we can only put it to the whipped egg white (raw) in that drink that made them sick. Our dinner was OK. The artichoke tempura was heavy fried not tempura… the hamburger was very good… wedge salad was good… but we noticed how limited the menu is and how limited the wine list was. The staff looking after the heaters and clearing of tables were very friendly. Not sure that I recommend going as the entertainment and food selection was not what we thought it would be for a Saturday night.

    First time here, came with high expectations but left disappointed. The 50s retro decor and vibe were well done and very cool. The menu made everything sound wonderful and we wanted to order everything. Pornstar Paloma was an excellent cocktail. Flamingo spritz came in a very cute flamingo glass but tasted watered-down. Appetizer was a tempura Wagyu hot dog. It didn’t really taste different from any other all beef wiener and was underdone, with a cold inside. Wedge salad was fresh, but short on dressing and lacking in flavor. Lobster thermidor also tasted like a shrinkflation creation with almost no lobster and, again, lacked flavor. The best dish was the New York strip steak. Cooked to a correct medium rare, its lack of salt was easily corrected and if tasted fine. Broccolini was likewise cooked crisp and right, but the heavy cream sauce overwhelmed like a wet blanket. Price was steep without quality to match. We didn’t stay for dessert. and concluded we wouldn’t be back to work our way through the rest of the menu, as we had originally fantasized.

    The wedge was amazing. The cocktails pretty delicious. The rest was just ok. The Brussels sprouts are dry dry dry!!! They can be orders as a side and also came with the chicken. Together with the chicken it just end up being a very dry meal. My sister has the steak. It was ok. The truffle mashed potatoes they came with this dish were like a runny sauce. Overall we would probably only go back for cocktails and a wedge. But steer clear of the old fashion.

    Seems like there is a new Chef. Our meal was overly salty. Waiter was a bit cheeky and almost crossed the line of propriety with his comments. It was not the experience we have had at other visits. Just off!

    Sunday brunch with family was a special occasion because part of the family was from out of state. The food was delicious and the presentation was beautiful! Service staff was friendly and attentive. My only complaint was the sound level of the music—- MUCH TOO LOUD. I am a loyal and frequent customer and I enjoy everything about this restaurant but the level of the music. Please turn the music down! Thank you.

    The valet idea is a good one but when your customers have to walk theee blocks to find a parking spot beciase the valet has all the open spaces blocked off, it’s no longer a service but a scam. Food was ok. Cute drinks

    The buss boy was not helpful, he left the sliding door open after himself and I requested it be closed, he turned and looked at the door and then continued walking, a mother guest closed the door. The silver wear and glass wear was dirty. The food is over priced for the quality and service. Would not recommend or go back. The server was the only positive interaction.

    It was cold and drafty in the restaurant with the back door opening to the outside for guests to access the restrooms. That made it uncomfortable overall. The food was tasty and creative for the most part but not outstanding; the flavors could have been balanced better and with a bit more care taken to the entrées. I had the lobster thermidor. The lobster bits were so chopped, small, and scattered that it was hard to really taste it. I also noticed different types of pasta mixed in, which I found odd and a bit unsettling. Additionally it was on the bland side. Overall it was a nice place, but not outstanding. Very cute and well decorated restaurant.

    It was terrible…waiter disappeared, Arnold Palmer was straight lemon juice, hamburger was literally thrown on the table, when the waiter had to take it back since I had asked for it to be cut in half. Busboy was the only saving Grace. I had eaten here before in the evening and the food was ok however the service then was great. This place has spiraled down and I’ll never eat there again. Took a friend from Santa Monica and we were both disappointed in every aspect of the place.

    Their for weekend lunch/brunch. Their craft cocktails were really interesting and delicious. Service was accommodating but a bit slow. They seemed a bit understaffed for Modernism Week. The onion caviar dip was excellent but rich. My wife loved her chilaquiles. We will give it another go around for sure.
