    We were seated right next to a window overlooking the water. The ambiance was amazing. To start, we decided to try the sourdough bread. It was absolutely delicious. For a main course, we ordered the scallops and the Alaskan halibut. Both dishes were cooked perfectly. Carson, the waiter, was attentive and charming. All-in-all, it was an incredible experience. I will definitely be returning.

    The service and food were excellent. Yes, prices, but what isn't today? Of course, seeing the water and city lights was great. I would have liked to see more holiday decorations on the ship, walking the way from the onboard area to the restaurant. Yes, there were several lit Christmas trees, but it's a long walk, and it would have been much nicer if it had been more festive, including the restaurant itself.

    Wow, what an incredible lunch experience at RAYA! First off, I have to rave about the service - everyone from the host to our servers made our first day at the Ritz Laguna so special. The staff was incredibly attentive and friendly, taking time to walk us through the menu and make great recommendations. You can tell they really care about making sure you have the best experience possible. The food was absolutely outstanding! We started with their guacamole with spicy crab which is a must-try - trust me, it's not your regular guac! The skirt steak was cooked perfectly and so flavorful, and those truffle fries on the side were addictively good. I went for the seafood enchiladas which were incredible, packed with fresh seafood. Even the kids' menu impressed us - my daughter loved her mac and cheese (and she's pretty picky!). The passion fruit mojitos were fantastic too - super refreshing and not too sweet. Perfect for a lunch with that amazing ocean view! The menu has tons of variety, and based on everything we tried, you really can't go wrong with whatever you choose. The staff's knowledge of every dish really helped us make great choices. We loved our lunch experience so much that we already booked dinner reservations for later this week! If you're staying at the Ritz or just in the area, definitely make RAYA a priority. The combination of incredible food, amazing service, and beautiful setting made it a highlight of our first day here. Worth every penny for such a special dining experience!

    The reservation process through Open Table went well. The Restaurant was clean and comfortable. The staff does an exceptional job. The salmon with mashed potatoes and veggies was great. Generous portion. Perfectly seared and all the right flavors. The short rib was served on a bed of mashed potatoes and veggies. Everything was delicious and the portion size was generous. The views are unsurpassed. I've been here several times and they never dissappoint..

    This is our second time enjoying this brunch. The food is excellent, big variety of everything, Mexican, Italian, seafood, desserts, American. I wish they had a salad bar with more choices. The ambience was fantastic. Big part of it was the live band playing. Bossa Linda set the place on fire with their music. Service was excellent, we had Alejandra as our server and she was very attentive. Overall , great experience. Maybe they should have a dress code to make it more elegant. Some people were dressed very nicely with long dress and tights and others were in shorts and flip flops, not for the queen mary . Especially if you are paying $120 plus tip per person.
