Horrible experience. We ordered the race weekend unlimited pasta. It took forever for the bread to come out and then finally the first pasta. Of course one of the dishes was wrong. The response was it's ok to eat are busy we will make a new one. To no surprise we didn't like the wrong dish. We made the mistake of ordering a second pasta that took 30 minutes. No apologies for long waits in an almost empty restaurant or wrong items. Pasta was not cooked well.

We HAD TO SPEND $500 because we were a group of 12 or our bill would have been $500. It's next to a convention center and we came as four separate groups but wouldn't split the bill.

We made reservations for New Year's Eve at 8 PM. We were reached out to change our reservation to 630 pm. When we got there, we ordered our drinks, but it took time to get them. Then we got our food and unfortunately, it was cold. We never got refills on our drinks , just a really poor experience don't understand why if it was only 630pm and they weren't that busy.

I was not informed about the New Year Menu Too pricey and the food is not good at all feeling disappointed eating a $300 for two didn't recommend at all

The restaurant is located inside the Westin Hotel in Anaheim. The service was exceptional our server was super nice, and the food was really good as well. We ordered the tomahawk, the meat was nicely cooked and tender, and it came with Mac & Cheese and potato's. Both sides were also delicious. The pasta was really good as well. It's definitely a great place for special occasions. Make sure you get your parking ticket validated for a parking rate discount.

My husband and I took our mothers for the Christmas prix fix menu and, although there was a lot of food, none of it was very good. The appetizers were lukewarm as if they'd been sitting out a while and the crab cakes were fishy. The butternut squash soup was overly sweet and although 3 out of the 4 people in our party ordered the prime rib cooked medium rare, each cut of meat came out at a different temperature. Staff were attentive and friendly but it was nothing more than expensive hotel food. I would not return.

The food was really hit and miss. There was a nice variety, but most of the hot dishes were actually cold or lukewarm at best. The desserts were all bite-size, which made it easy to sample everything, and most of them were pretty good. The service, though, was terrible. We were greeted warmly at first, but after our drinks and bread were served, our waiter basically disappeared. A manager eventually walked by and kindly cleared our plates, which we appreciated, but that was about the only highlight of the service. We also weren't thrilled about the automatic 18% service charge added to our bill—especially for a party of just two. It felt like an obvious attempt by our waiter to squeeze out a bigger tip than he earned. Neither OpenTable's description of the buffet nor anything from the Tangerine Room mentioned this charge. We still added a little extra tip because we felt kind of sorry for the guy and his lack of professionalism, but not enough to stop us from writing this review. It's disappointing, because we were really excited to have our Thanksgiving here. Unfortunately, it turned into a bad memory, and we won't be returning.

We were greeted effusively and seated on time. The service, food and ambiance was a pleasant surprise. Good team at the Tangerine. Thank you chef!

A hidden gem. The exterior and location are unassuming, but the menu is phenomenal and all of the food was perfectly prepared. The service could be a bit better, but the quality of the meals they offer are top tier and well worth the money.

POOR! We ordered 4 dishes, all very well designed, but LOW quality taste and texture Ahi tuna, super salty with unpleasant spice Calamari, not well marrianated chicken, Flat soda, tough rice. We left the food after a few bites. The servere was initially respectful but then made a few mocking commentes to our friend who asked for "No cheese" for the chicken panini (as it doesn't make sense to order panini without cheese).
This was our first night at the hotel and this was the most convenient option at the time. Service was great, our server was very attentive to us. Only problem was the food we were left underwhelmed, and we couldn't find it in us to try to complain because the server was very enthusiastic about the menu items. I ordered the spanish grilled octopus (too much happening on the plate, the aoli overtook the whole dish and the potato stack tasted like soggy sour cream and onion chips). Also ordered roasted carrots again too much happening on the plate (the carrots were fine but did not need to have that odd curry sauce that over complicated something that is simple). Hubby ordered Wedge and the bolognese which he said were great. Desert was also overly hyped for something that tasted like protein powder and an under done cake with chopped pineapple we both couldn't enjoy it at all. They have a fair selection of wine, and cocktails. Only other thing to mention is when you are coming back from a long day the last thing you want to see is menu items in hard to see orange print on a white menu. Other than that would comeback for certain items only.

The space is lovely, but the food was only OK especially given the prices (truffle fries - great, fish - flabby skin, vegetables - undercooked, meatloaf - dry). Service was also only OK. We were never asked if we wanted a second drink. Volume was loud, but there was a private party in the room next to our table, which impacted the experience as people were flowing out of the room. I'm unlikely to return.

Great food - the onion soup is one of the best I ever had. All food was way above average.

Easy to book. Excellent service. Food cooked to perfection. Decor was stellar and noise level was not bad even with a game on (able to have conversation at the table).
