Everything we ordered tasted great. I especially liked the calamari , the shrimp tacos and the seared tuna . And yes, the view was breathtaking at sunset . Great place to just chill :)

Offbeat L.A.

Originally opened in 1963 as a nautical themed restaurant with a view . It burned to the ground in a suspicious 1993 arson fire and was rebuilt completely the next year.

Great view and good food , but Father's Day brunch is a madhouse. We had reservations and it still took us an hour to get seated.

Roger Gomez

Good food with a variety of food. Only concern was that it was like a scavenger hunt to find the traditional thanksgiving dishes. Great view !

Lara Saikali

The Ahai Tuna is the best!!!! And they have good drinks too

Shabby Khalili

Ask for their server Shareh! (Sh-ray) She is usually there on Saturdays. Friendly and extremely knowledgable !

Justice Oliver

Crab legs . Smoked salmon . Amazing. Great view . Took my boyfriend here for brunch

Babette Canton

The creme brûlée is large and very rich, so definitely make sure someone else in your party wants to share.

Jay Aguirre

Sunday Brunch is amazing! The view is awesome and the food was delicious!

Carmen SanDiego

Right now they're doing construction on the parking lot and in the fascia of the building, but the inside is still nice.

Volkan

Nice fancy place , great view and delicious foods and drinks

Babette Canton

The fire-pits are good for drinks and appetizers . Get a table for dinner if you don't want to eat hunched over.

The view tasted great! Pretty good dirty Martini too.

Shabby Khalili

The view is breathtaking! One compared to none. My favorite thing to do here is attend the wine pairing dinners . 5 course meal with a different wine per meal. Call & check when the next one is!

Babette Canton

The miso glaze cod with buttery rice is ridiculously good.

Angela Faulkner

One of the best views in LA!!!

Well , it isn't really about the food. If you keep your expectations low and enjoy the view , it will be nice.

Send your parents. If you're under 50 you'll probably prefer something a bit more modern.

Curt Silver

The prime rib , amazing.

Anabel d.G.

Hostess is most definitely on the snotty side!

Marlene Blanchard

This place was soooooo good

Johnny Valdez

If you like chocolate , try the " Chocolate Eruption"

Sarah Malievsky

Their dessert is bomb

Natalia Carter

Slowest service in LA, food was canned/frozen junk, drinks were weak, and the dishware was dirty and cracked. View is okay, but far from worth suffering through the meal. (1 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Find Me

Ask for Norm, he's the best waiter in town

Yun Ding

Bland food and slow service. Mashed potatoes tasted like they were out of a jar and the tiramisu like it came from a $5 grocery store cake .

Nick Mitchell

Used to have a great salad bar at lunch ; not anymore. The view is nice, but the service at lunch was slow and the place reeked of dirty linen.

Michael Pinkerton

Try the 1944 Mai Tai

Natalia Carter

Slowest service in LA, food was canned/frozen junk, drinks were weak, and the dishware was dirty and cracked. View is okay, but far from worth suffering through the meal.

Ilene Balingit

Nice view , food is nothing to write home about, pretty much drank mimosas for lunch instead of the food...
