    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.

    Came for NYE. DJ did not read the crowd and played his own pre-planned set. There were absolutely no seats to sit around. There were VIP roped tables but yet there were no VIP reservation info on OpenTable. The host was the worst. She went on the microphone and started a breathing exercise with the crowd at 10:30pm. Who does this at an NYE party? Lol anyway, bartenders deserved credit, otherwise the event organizing needed a lot more experience.
    Paloma VeniceResponded on 4 January 2025
    Hi, Jason. First off, thank you for attending our event to begin with as we know you could've been anywhere else and the fact you chose us is most appreciated! Our DJ curated a set to appeal to a wide audience, though we understand musical preferences can vary, and I apologize it didn't suit your taste. VIP reservations were communicated on other platforms and requested via phone, but we’ll work on making that clearer moving forward. The breathing exercise was intended as a fun, lighthearted moment to engage the crowd, though we understand it might not have been everyone’s cup of tea. Thank you for your kind words of praise for our bartenders, and we’ll use your input to improve future events. Thank you, Jason and Happy New Year!

    Very seldom do I give a negative review- the server was very nice but the food was horrible- tomato and burrata type salad- tomatoes were overly ripe or mushy; gnocchi and pesto was the worst- gnocchi was doughy and the pesto was thick and lumpy- flavorless. Too many other good choices of restaurants in Los Angeles- will never go back.
    Paloma VeniceResponded on 30 December 2024
