Food was ok, but not great. The crudo tacos were the best part of our meal. The melon salad was interesting but not quite a hit. The halibut was pretty bad. It was under-cooked, which would have been ok if the fish was fresh, but it wasn't. The service was definitely not up to par.

The food is among the best anywhere in the Bay Area. The service is impeccable at every level of the experience.

We had a great night away from the kids, staying at the hotel, having a nice dinner at Broma and enjoying a quiet coffee in the morning next to the fireplace. There was a country concert going on at shoreline so a bit of a louder crowd than usual but made for good people watching.

Food was incredible. Service was ok, not bad in any way, but not exceptional. Price was a bit high but expected. Drinks were above average.

A-level place. Been 3 times. Food was a B+ this day, but more because of how / what we ordered. Our server was excellent & personable. The ceiling probably needs some noise-absorption materials.

Terrible service
full of attitude for nothing

Always great returning to Broma. Looks like their recent menu revamped to include more Mains than Appetizers. I miss having more tapas options, but food was good. Personally loved the "pork" appetizer, and would love the recipe for it!! Dessert couldve been better- both the Ube mochi cake and Calamansi cake felt a little dense. A little surprised by the automatically applied service fee (we were a group of 3). All in all though, good food and vibes, though a littlw pricey

I had a really decent old fashioned here. The menu had some really creative drinks, but as a whiskey drinker, I was hoping for a few more options. Based on the reviews, I was hoping that that bartender could recommend something new, but the old fashioned was all he could come up with. I also wish I realized this was a hotel bar before going. I had requested a food menu, but my bartender never came to ask if I was ready to order, I had to flag down another gentleman to order. Overall, pretty okay experience.

Vegetarian options were little and lacked flavor. Ina a positive note amongst a very few restaurants that have a lot oh Non Alcoholic options. Service was spotty and as a result the meal took way longer than it should have. Ona busy Saturday evening the restaurant was all pretty empty.

Everything was so fresh and tasty. We tried the ibérico ham and shared several delicious plates. Service was on point. Can't wait to go back and try more!

If you are celebrating special occasions, like birthday or anniversary, don't come here, although they asked you what you celebrate when you made reservation, nothing complimentary. They misled us to ordered a “birthday dessert “ and it's not complimentary when paying bills —- edit : adhere I saw other reviews that their birthday there got a “nice gesture “ , I changed my rating to one star.

overpriced and bad service. The server is not paying attention to us and they include a 20% tip on the bill. The food portion is really small and costly. We regret coming here.

Came here looking at amazing reviews but found it too dull for a Friday night. Drinks are just okay (even the signature ones)! Leaving the place in 20 mins. Oh and the food menu is just namesake - atmost 6 items !

Used to love it but service has gone downhills, maybe the automatic 20% made them stopped caring

Came for the Valentines Day special and had the tasting menu - food was excellent and the dishes had very complex textures and flavors, and everything was clearly curated very carefully and intentionally. The staff was surprisingly attentive and pleasant despite how busy it got, and they even took the time to take a polaroid of us and present us our photo with a small paper flower. 100% would return
