    Generally, not the type of person who leaves reviews, especially if they aren’t positive, but I see potential so writing it for constructive use. If I had to narrow it down, it would be that the service and atmosphere wasn’t worth the price. That or a confluence of events (not able to change tables when seated next to a loud speaker for a mediocre live jazz duo, not having all items on the menu, not acknowledging a 16th birthday, forgetting who ordered what, forgetting to turn on the outside heaters, way overcooking the steak, or not packing the dessert ordered to go). It’s that when this stuff happened, there wasn’t meaningful remorse for any of it - even verbally. Stayed positive to keep the birthday girl’s vibe upbeat, but I was upset for her. It should have been more special. In a word - pretentious. And that’s on management. As someone from LA and who has been fortunate enough to travel the world, I’ve seen the best - and the most memorable places have nothing to do with location or price. It’s all about ensuring a special customer experience. And this one was worse than bad, it’s forgettable; or will be as soon as I’m done writing this. Wish you all the best because there were flashes of promise.

    Fantastic spot in Huntington Beach with amazing views over-looking PCH. We enjoyed some apps and then had some cocktails up at The Treehouse after. They had live music on the patio too! We eat GF and the GF Short Rib Fried Rice was excellent. I also recommend the Pork Belly Lettuce Wraps.

    Hi David, Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We're thrilled you enjoyed the views, live music, and the experience both at Lōrea and The Treehouse. It’s great to hear the GF Short Rib Fried Rice and Pork Belly Lettuce Wraps hit the mark—we’ll be sure to share your kind words with the team. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience! Best regards, Elias Garcia, Director of Restaurants

    Food was terrible. Amazing view and restaurant setting but food is just subpar. Not worth a visit if you want good food.

    Hi Julia, Thank you for sharing your feedback. While I’m glad you enjoyed the view and setting, I’m truly sorry to hear the food fell short of your expectations. We’d really appreciate the opportunity to better understand what didn’t work for you—whether it was specific dishes, preparation, or overall quality. Your insight would help us identify where we can improve and ensure a better experience for our guests moving forward. If you're open to it, feel free to share more details here. Sincerely, Elias Garcia, Director of Restaurants

    Service was very slow…took 45 minutes to get first drink and appetizer (it was NOT busy). Appetizers were great, main courses not so much.- I had dry salmon, my husbands scallops were good but he left hungry. We won’t return.
    LoreaResponded on June 18, 2025
    Thanks for the review, Shiela. We're sorry to hear that you had a less than perfect experience at Lorea. We always aim to deliver a great experience, and we're disappointed to hear that we fell short this time. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed our appetizers, but we're sorry that the main courses didn't live up to them. We appreciate your feedback and will use it to improve. We hope you'll give us another chance in the future to provide you with the quality experience you deserve. Best, Eli Garcia, Director of Restaurants

    The food was excellent and service was responsive. I had to point out an error on the bill ( of course, to the restaurant’s advantage ). Also, while the website states that they don’t charge a $15 valet charge if you make a reservation through Open Table, when I got there, I was told that no longer applied and had to pay the valet. It’s this kind of tick tacky stuff that prevents people from coming back.
    LoreaResponded on June 23, 2025
    Thank you for dining with us and for taking the time to share your feedback. We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the food and found the service responsive. That said, I sincerely apologize for the billing oversight and the confusion regarding valet validation. Your experience does not reflect the level of transparency and hospitality we aim to provide. We understand how frustrating these kinds of inconsistencies can be, and we’re currently reviewing both our communication and billing practices to ensure guests receive clear, accurate information every step of the way. We appreciate your candid feedback—it helps us improve. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back and provide the seamless experience you deserve. Best, Eli Garcia, Director of Restaurants
