Service was lacking and there weren't many people dining at the time. Had to get up and go inside to ask for salt and pepper. No waiters to be found anywhere. But good food and nice atmosphere.

We celebrated my son's birthday at Paloma Venice, and it was a lovely experience! The ambience was absolutely beautiful—lush greenery, stylish decor, and a perfect vibe for a special occasion. The food was excellent, and the drinks were refreshing and well-crafted. We did have a small hiccup with the bill as our waitress accidentally overcharged us, but aside from that, everything else was wonderful. I would definitely return and recommend it for a celebration or a nice meal out!

I absolutely love love the drinks and the short rib. Everything is delicious but that short rib is top tier. I've been here during the day and evening, both are great for friends or a date. I also brought my daughter here for her graduation dinner.

I am at LA local and I can tell you that this place is highly overrated. I would consider picking somewhere else over this place. The ambience is 10 out of 10. The food is a mid (6.5) the portions are small like really small.  the drinks are are also mid. I would skip this and try somewhere else.

Love the raw bar options. I always wish for more classic brunch options but what they have - breakfast burrito and French toast - are delicious. Drinks are fantastic! When you think of outdoor eating in LA, this is what the put in the movies.

Server was very unfriendly. Bartender cleared my items when I had just left to go talk to another table (and I let her know that I'd be back)

Food was amazing! We tried crispy calamari, grilled octopus salad, wild mushroom side, and the sea bass. Also paired it with a Tamarind Mezcal margarita. Everything was so good! We highly recommend this place.

Overpriced. Small potions. Thought the $10 side of mashed potatoes was actually butter for the table. Watch out for the 5% fee added and not given to servers but held by owner.

Great service, very cool place, pictures don't do it justice. Business meeting and they all loved it, drinks pricey and a bit loud but overall totally recommend.

The restaurant is lovely and has a nice ambiance but it fell short from there. We were there celebrating my daughters 16th bday which I added to our reservation notes. We were initially taken to a terrible, cold and draft table that was too large for 3 people. We asked to move and without an issue was moved to a warmer more appropriate table for 3. We ordered hummus and pita - not much bread for the amount of pita so asked for more bread, it was a charge. The hummus was fine but the meatballs were great, recommend them. We ordered the skirt steak which was undercooked to the preference provided. We orders two pasta dishes, one boulinase was great but the penne came out as a watery mess - it was awful to look at, and tasted as poor. Not sure what happened but I think the pasta maybe not properly strained. She asked to replace it with something with vodka sauce and that came out as something that seemed cheese sauce driven. I also assumed that for a bday there would have been some fanfare with a candle or a little dessert but nada. Obviously never guaranteed but disappointing that her birthday wasn't acknowledged. The worst part was the my older daughter suggested a lovely Italian restaurant and I was dead set on trying Paloma and the whole thing was underwhelming.

The vibe was there but the food was ok... pricey menu for little portions. But all in all not a bad spot for brunch and drinks with friends

Amazing experience! Me and my wife were there last night, had a great time. The dips were awesome , the fish was out of this world, portions were great. SERVICE was kind, friendly and informative , the manager even came out to see that everything is good, we actually had a nice conversation with him as well. On top of that, the alcoholic beverages were out of this world . Definitely coming back to try other things on the menu.

Best thing about Paloma is the ambiance. Beautiful setting, great vibe. Food expensive and good, not great. Servers seemed confused. Very noisy. Might try it again for brunch.

The food is just okay—nothing exceptionally good or stands out. The ceviche was not fresh.
