I have been to Longitude 118 a few times. There is only valet parking and used to still charge us…read moreafter validations but we did not get charged last time. This place is located somewhat in the lobby, which is an open area for seating and with bar right in middle. I usually come with relatives traveling from afar. They like the atmosphere and they enjoy Jeovanni's services. He is one of the bartenders who has a nice smile, that recommends good food and good drinks.

Longitude 118 (inside Le Méridien, Arcadia) is a great lounge-style bar that pairs perfectly with…read moreMélange--same space, but with more of a relaxed vibe and handheld, bar-friendly options. The ambiance is beautiful and modern, making it a great spot for drinks, light bites, or a casual date night that still feels a little elevated. They offer a full bar with a solid drink selection, and the overall service was friendly and welcoming. Food leans more toward handhelds like burgers and sandwiches, which makes it easy to just hang out and snack while you drink. The charcuterie board was so good and was honestly one of the best parts of the experience--great variety of cheeses, nuts, olives, bread, and that fig jam was amazing. Definitely a must-order if you're there. Overall: A stylish, comfortable bar with good food options and great drinks. Whether you're pairing it with Mélange or just stopping in for a drink and a bite, it's a solid spot to unwind.

This is a very cute restaurant for breakfast/brunch! We came to try it on a Wednesday lunch…read more We ordered steak and eggs, the steak was not good, very rough. I wish they charge more but give a better quality steak. But the way they flavored the steak was very good!! Then we ordered the smoked salmon benny, very delicious! Loved everything about this dish! I would come back for this! We also ordered their signature dessert, Dutch baby, it tasted exactly like bread pudding. It was good but not what I imagined how it would taste. So trying once was enough for me. Service was attentive! Everything else was great. Will be back occasionally!

Let me start with the coffee and hazelnut latte, amazing. We were seated quickly, which was nice,…read morebut then it took about 10-15 minutes before anyone even acknowledged us. Servers kept walking past our table without checking in and honestly looked kind of lost or wandering around aimlessly. Luckily they keep water pitchers on the tables already filled, which now makes perfect sense considering how long it takes to get service. Smart move on their part. I ordered the avocado toast with a side of bacon, and my husband ordered the chorizo skillet. The coffees and my food came out quickly, but his never did. Instead, we watched an older server walk around the restaurant with his skillet and bacon, stopping at multiple tables asking if it belonged to them. Twice she set it down at other tables before being told it wasn't theirs. The third time, she finally brought it to us. That seems like it should be a health issue, what if someone else had stuck their fingers in it not knowing. By then, my husband didn't even want it anymore because it had already been sitting in front of other people. To their credit, they remade it, but then we waited another 15 minutes for his food while I had already finished eating. We actually watched another couple sitting next to us get so frustrated because their order was completely forgotten. After waiting forever with no food and barely any acknowledgment, they eventually just got up and left. Overall, cute spot and really good coffee, but the service was incredibly disorganized and the food mix-up was a huge turnoff. Unfortunately, we won't be back.

Back for those Ube pancakes! Did not disappoint! More delicious than I ever imagined! No syrup or…read morebutter needed, eat it as is! I'm glad they serve this as a short stack otherwise I would have been in a food coma because we also got the sirloin loco moco and some kind of Ube coffee drink. Loco moco is always my daughter's go to dish. This time they had a sirloin steak topping! Service is always top notch! There is a parking lot! Which is a plus!

I've been here twice. Both times were good. The first time wasn't super memorable. Like I remember…read moreit was decent but nothing mind blowing. I came here again recently and it was fairly busy for a Wednesday morning but I was still able to get a seat. Tried the POG and it tasted fresh but still just ok. Didn't bring me back to the islands per se. But I appreciate the effort. I got the chicken katsu loco moco. I was leaning towards the spam loco moco cause I didn't really want something fried but it was the same price so I figured the katsu was a better deal cause it's more skill. It was such a large plate. Like easily two people could share it and maybe a third. The gravy was solid. The chicken wasn't dry and was good. Spam musubi was good but I wish it was fully wrapped cause my rice broke off towards the end. I got a guava toffee French toast to go for my daughter and she said it was good but it literally just tasted like cooked bread which I guess is what French toast is but I guess when it's done right it's transformed more. This wasn't the case. She also could barely taste the guava. All in all I'd come again if someone else wanted to try it but it's not something I'll be craving or coming to when I miss the islands.
