It's a pricey place but worth every penny. ”

loved the huge hanging candle-abrah's and the fountain and all the greenery. ”

Possibly the most romantic place in l.a. - - impeccable service, exquisite surrounding, phenomenal food (yes, expensive, but worth every penny) - - if you want to impress a lady - the little door makes me feel like a princess. ”

For how expensive the food is, it wasn't mindblowing in any way. ”

From the street the place looks good and there are expensive cars. ”

When you are going to pay such high prices for dinner, you better get good service. ”

Overall the food is good but I haven't decided yet if it's worth all that money (this was my second time there). ”

Nothing like the nice Westside restaurants like Bandera, Peppone, Capo, or Lawrys where you get good service for your dollar. ”

don't mind paying exuberant prices for an amazing experience, but the quality of food, over priced wine and inflated ego's of the waiters no longer justify their prices. ”

For those of you who aren't going to feel put out by a $200 dollar tab, know what good food is, and don't mistake fresh organic produce for canned beans. ”

food was great no complaints but not worth the hassle of waiting for it and getting yourself ticked off about it ”
- “
The food is not that great for the price. ”

could have spent less money to eat at a Wolfgang Puck restaurant where the food was divine, not just good. ”
