“Had an incredible experience this evening at BOA. Mr. Ousley seated our party in the best seats! My server Mark was outstanding and his service was spot on. Clay and his whole team were On Point. The whole vibe and atmosphere was just perfect. I think I just had the best steak of my life right here in Santa Monica.“

“Brilliant service high class dining and very high quality food …“

“They are by far the best steak I have ever had. We went there on a whim and they were booked but found a cute table for us by the fire. It was the most memorable meal with my husband. We are eternally grateful for the experience and service we received.“

“This place was great. We really enjoyed the food, service and the entertainment. The piano player was a great touch. Went on a weekend with a reservation and got right in. You have to check in with the host stand right by the valet and they'll tell you to ring the bell by the side door down a few stairs. We had the Pappardelle Bolognaise and a wedge salad, both were amazing. The valet is really convenient but super expensive, even for LA. We'd stop back in some day for sure!“

“This place is absolutely epic! Best food in America we ate by a country mile!!! Brian and his chef Miguel went above and beyond for my fussy daughter , they delivered high class service and a few laughs as well. Everything we ate tasted incredible, so much in fact that we had to go 2 nights in a row. Thanks Meat On Ocean. A truely memorable experience.“

“Had a great time. The staff friendly.“

“Wonderful service and outstanding food.“

“The quality of the food was not good at all. My steak was overcooked and heavily seasoned I had no choice but to send it back. The waitress took so long to come back and check on us after our food arrived by time she came back my friend already finished his meal. They need to revamp the menu and get a better chef. This is a very average place for steak. The music place was great though. I would skip the restaurant and convert into a night club!“

“Great service and the food is very good highly recommended“

“I cannot say enough good things about this place. First and foremost, our server Jose gave us the best service we’ve ever had. All his recommendations were SPOT ON and he went above and beyond to make our anniversary celebration feel SO special. Then to top it off, the food was phenomenal. Boa is a MUST TRY“

“Great friendly service and food.“

“I had the warmest experience at The Arthur J, from the hostess at the front door, the wait staff and the manager. I had recently lost my husband prior to my reservation and was determined to enjoy our anniversary dinner. Not only was a the food delicious, but the overall experience was beyond memorable. Thank you…. thank you. Can’t wait until I return for his birthday.“

“Absolutely Phenomenal! Ann and her staff were excellent. The food was perfect. The night was perfect. The restaurant is perfect. You get what you pay for and everything in life. This is well worth it.“

“The food and the atmosphere are AMAZING“

“Simply Bellisimo. Perfection.“

“It's more than a steakhouse, it's an eclectic place to try whatever Chef Bijan has running through his brain...a twist on a recipe or something new entirely. Excellent food preparation and sourcing. This is all supported by a friendly, intelligent manager and staff that helps you with a drink, food selection, and delivery to your table. Build some friends and memories because you won't be disappointed!“

“I loved the service and the food. The atmosphere is nice too. We were seated near the band as requested by my friends and it was a little hard to hear them speaking. The band was excellent and over all we had a beautiful time. I suggest that if you decide to go there check the online menu first. I had the salmon and it was heavenly along with the chocolate cake and nice and cheesy Au graten potatoes. You absolutely will not be disappointed when you go trust me.“

“The bar at the Valley Inn is perhaps one of the best kept secrets in LA. Yes, it’s tiny but get there early, secure your seat and you’re in for a ride of the greatest cocktails served up by a ladies and gentlemen’s gentleman - the maker with the shaker, Bill. Seriously, make a friend of this guy and then introduce him and the bar to your favorite people - only your favorite people! The food in the restaurant is great but a tad expensive but the bar will become your new happy place. Bravo“

“Great food and the service was outstanding!“

“Best Korean bbq in Los Angeles. 강력추천합니다.“

“Beautiful restaurant and bar with tasty food and great service. I’ll be back!“

“La viande est excellente, une offre végétarienne rare (la cheffe française en est), des légumes cuisinés de façon originale Le vin très correct et le service rapide.... Toujours un problème avec les prix mais on est aux usa...“

“THE BEST STEAK ON THE PLANET 🥩🌎 shoutout to our waitress Grace SHE GOT US FREE ICE CREAM AFTER OUR MEAL 5 STARS
(^ review by my 10 year old son who loves steak and swears this is his favorite steakhouse ever. We purposely stay at this hotel for this restaurant when we have an early flight out of LAX. Excellent food and kind service. We will definitely be back! And yes, our waitress, Grace, was lovely!).“

“Spectacular Views & Exceptional Dining at Waldorf Hilton

Gemma at the Waldorf Hilton was absolutely spectacular! The view alone is worth the visit — truly breathtaking.

This was a last-minute decision to dine, so I was incredibly lucky to secure a table at Baldi, the hotel’s Italian restaurant. The meal did not disappoint.

We started with the meatballs and chicken meatballs, followed by lobster linguine and branzino for the main course. Everything was beautifully presented and cooked to perfection. The flavours were exceptional, and the entire dining experience felt wonderfully indulgent.

A memorable evening with a spectacular setting, excellent food and great service. I would definitely return!“

“We came here for a coworker's birthday. They called ahead and prepared a special menu with our names on it, along with homemade cheesecake and whipped cream. We ordered the prime rib, broccoli and French onion soup. For the price, I would rate the steak 8.5/10. The service and ambiance of the restaurant was great. Highly recommended for dates, family dinners or corporate/clients.“

“Dined here on a recent trip home to Cali. The food at Yardhouse is reliably good no matter the state. I had four people with me and everyone enjoyed their food. The service wasn't great. There were items overlooked and the waitress was unattentive.“

“Tasty and feels like home“

“Nice place to have a fine dining !!!“

“Food was great rated # 1 Service well if being should I say being Shined the whole meal service Can’t they get descent help As DC“

“Great place went on Saturday the 13th love the piano and the atmosphere. Customer service was awesome“

“Breanne? I think that was her name. she was a great waitress! The hostess was very sweet, the food was so good the filet mignon is probably the best steak i’ve ever had. they broil it and serve it on a 500 degree plate. The gentleman at the front didn’t seem too pleased with us when we arrived but changed his tune when he walked past us when we were eating and introduced himself as the new manager.“

“Jerry is the most amazing server ever! Such detail and the ability to do things quickly and adjust the menu to preferance and on top of her skills is a givinging heart. When Someone needed a meal because they didn't have enough money she stepped up and paid for it herself. Now that is Manager quality in fact being an owner of 3 companies I would day she is ownership quality.
Rachel the manager came over and asked about how my service was. Very intelligent and kind person. After taking with her I could see she is Looking out for the business and her servers to make everything as great a experience as possible. Nice job Jerry and Rachel they should be very glad to have you there!“
