    Service and food is good. If you have food allergies, make sure you check your food before eating. I had to send my food back because it was not prepared correctly so that was a disruption in the dining experience.

    We went for sunset before a show at the Pantages. Beautiful view and ambience but the food choices were slim and overpriced. Especially for salads, burgers, sandwiches, and finger foods. Service was good but unfortunately I won’t return for dinner again.

    It was my daughter's birthday and we made a reservation. The outdoor view was amazing. Love the ambivalence. My daughter went crazy taking pictures by the pool. Emoni was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. The only issue my steak...It was over cooked, but the chimichuri sauce was made up for it. The spicy rigatoni was delicious and the calamari was crispy and soft at the same time. The martini here is more than Las Vegas' Cesar Palace ...lol...

    I didn’t get checked in to get points on Open Table. Also there was no hostess or anything. It was very confusing. Service was subpar considering it’s in one of the best areas of Hollywood and it’s a branch of Tao. May come again but not for any special occasion.

    My dining experience at the restaurant left much to be desired. The place felt unprepared to serve guests, as Halloween decorations were still adorning the restaurant area. This detracted from the overall ambiance and, coupled with mediocre food, I believe there are better dining options in the area.

    I curated an 6 person business meeting yesterday. I was grateful that the hostess seated myself and my team so quickly. Our table attendant Ryan was amazing. He recommended great Rosé, food and desserts. Overall 10/10 experience. Beautiful views, great food and amazing service. Will definitely visit in the future with more friends.

    Massively loud. Tinnitus loud. Uncomfortably loud. And unless you are an absolute fan of hip hop music, you will be unhappy----as we were---as we struggled to hear each other and have a conversation while eating overpriced average food.

    Food is pricey for the quality. If you are going to charge close to $30 for a chicken sandwich or a club sandwich, it better be the best sandwich I have ever eaten- and it was not. It was solid, but not worth the price. It was probably worth $16.00 if I had to give an example of price matching the taste, flavor and presentation. The fries are a small portion that came with it, and they were soggy and soft. Fries should always be crispy! Ambiance is gorgeous, so essentially that’s what you are paying for. Our server was nice.

    My Birthday brunch reservations was at 11:30 , we did not get our drinks served until around 12:30 pm . Our food was served at about 1:30 pm and on top of that everyones food was so cold when it wa served to us . Our food had to have been sitting there for a while . It was my first time there , and I’m honestly very disappointed with my experience . Never eating there again .

    Overall great, but they need to chilllout the music a bit in the evenings. Pounding clubby house is good for a pool party, but it was a bit obnoxious at 7pm. Play some downtempo or something a bit more chill to set the vibe.

    The food and drinks were great! I believe you’re paying more so for a view. I suggest you valet you car, because parking is very confusing ($20). Host was very friendly, our waiter was also friendly. Would definitely come back, but stay at the hotel! (As it includes a pool)

    The menu is limited. A spicy sauce/dressing was on one burger without being advised the sauce was spicy. Drinks are pricey and of average quality. We were seated timely and waited at the table in the hot sun for 20 mins before we were offered water. We have no plans of returning to this location.
