We chose to celebrate our 36th anniversary here and it was perfect! From the time we entered, the staff were wonderful and accommodating. We will be back!

Great service and delicious food. It has improved very much since my previous visit about a year ago or so.

The Ritz is always a special experience. Our visit was a no exception! From the Manager to the assistant service team members, we were treated with 1st class service. The Steaks & Seafood dishes were perfect. Mary, our head Waiter, went out of her way to make our Anniversary amazing. Thank you to all of your staff! Warm Regards, L&J - Laguna Niguel

We had an exceptional meal and experience at Raya while celebrating my wife's birthday. Jennifer took good care of us and provided outstanding service. The food was delicious and the view of the sunset spectacular. We will definitely be back.

Everything was amazing! Food was delicious. Our server was relatable and friendly while also professional and kind. Staff was helpful and pleasant and accommodated our request for a better table. We enjoyed Sunday brunch and for the price, expected it to include champagne—but it did not. They served our birthday girl a delightful birthday dessert and were kind to do so. Everything was presented beautifully and we were not rushed through our four course meal, which I greatly appreciated as well.

Well I thought this was gonna be in a different area then the restaurant and more themed like a pop up restaurant also I called the front desk to see if I can move my reservation and she had told me there's no other seatings so it made it even more seem like it was a seated timed event and come to find out that I could've pushed the reservation back like I wanted to do because all it was was a different menu than their restaurant menu. It was also my anniversary so I assumed maybe they had a special seat set up for me was notated no was put in the back didn't have a view of the sunset was told I couldn't change my time because it was a special seating when in fact, I paid for a prepaid meal and there was nothing else really special about it.

We vistied RAYA before the candle light concert to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday. The food was great and so was the ambiance. Our server was very attentive and gave good recommendations. I got the filet and my boyfriend got the branzino which were both very tasty.

One of the best meals I've ever had! The skirt steak melted in my mouth. I never wanted the meal to end! The view is amazing as well. Can't wait to go back again.

This was a beautiful and wonderful place to celebrate a birthday dinner. Everything was excellent! They were even gracious enough to put the Birthday girl's drink in a special glass! Cheers to 60!

Pros: Amazing views as ever. Considerations: We did the Day of the Dead themed meal and it came out pretty slowly. Each course felt about 10 minutes later than it should have been and was luke warm on arrival. My husband had a remind them about both our wine and beer orders separately as the servers seemed to forget both times. Not impressive considering the ~$500 USD we had to prepay for 5 people. Would think twice before taking guests again.

Cathy

Wonderful place to eat. The view is absolutely breathtaking. My only complaint was the fire alarm going off during our dinner.. Not their fault but was disturbing us and those around us...Took about 10 min for them to fix it

My wife and I stayed at the Ritz to celebrate our 20th anniversary and we had a wonderful dinner at Raya! The food was excellent (wife got the scallops, I ordered the cod, and we shared the truffle fries and brussel sprouts) and the view was amazing. Perfect sunset view. Overall a wonderful experience at Raya!
