   Amazing view, great attentive host, food was amazing. To be specific when you first arrive they have this amazing garlic cheese bread soft and moist . The salad bar was fully stocked and the dressing was very rich and thick. Loved it . I had a cocktail called strawberry fields and it was delicious very light with a kick of gin. The filet mignon medium rare melts in your mouth and the fully loaded baked potato was a pretty big portion. I highly recommend this restaurant . LOVVVEEEEDDDDDD IT !

   Food wasn’t fully cooked well and lobster was overcooked and no flavor. Too much money for not good food. Asked for window they didn’t honor.

   The bar was low on inventory. Our waiter was not informed about the menu. The cocktails we ordered at the table took 25 minutes to arrive. My water glass remain empty after two requests to refill. When she finally returned asked if ai wanted more water.

   Great food, service, ambience, and view. Went on a Saturday evening during the holiday season, which was likely the reason for the long wait for valet parking in and out.

   I recently had dinner here there were several holiday parties going on at this venue as well, and unfortunately, my experience fell short of expectations. The valet service was a disaster. I initially chose not to valet my car, but the valet staff assured me I could park anywhere for $8. However, when I parked, a valet came over and informed me that my spot was reserved for trucks, even though several other cars were parked there. Later, when I was ready to leave, the valet had blocked off an entire section of vehicles, telling us we had to wait for them to move the car. This was exactly why I chose not to valet in the first place—I didn’t want to wait. The valet staff was also rude and unhelpful, even attempting to gesture for me to make a 20-point turn to get around a blocked car. Given that there were private parties going on, it might have been better for them to close for the night rather than overextend their service capabilities. As for the food, it was underwhelming. The lobster tail was bland, and the butter served with it lacked flavor. The filet was subpar and certainly not worth the premium price. To top it off, the service felt rushed from the moment we sat down. It was clear they were eager to turn the table, making us feel like we weren’t being given the time to enjoy our meal. The drinks were ridiculously overpriced, which only added to the overall disappointment. While our table offered a great view, it felt like we were paying more for the novelty of the location and the scenery than for the food and drink itself. For the price, I'd much rather spend my money at a place like Ruth's Chris, where both the food and service are consistently top-notch. Unfortunately, I won't be returning to this venue. Very disappointed, I had been wanting to eat here since I was a kid, every time we passed by on the freeway. We tried last year, but we were unable to get a table without a reservation.

   Terrible parking and valet service. Decent food and drinks but overpriced. Not worth the long wait to get into parking lot and wait to be seated even with a reservation.
