*Late Post*…read more Ambiance: As soon I walked in, the decor and energy set a live vibe. The place was packed with people, due to the high recognition of steaks, and sushi. Service: The service was a bit slow, but understandable due to the popularity of this location. Food: The food was top notch and delicious! Unfortunately, this place permanently closed. I hope Salt Bae can sprinkle some love back into reopening.

Went here the other night for DineLA with friends. DineLA, where you choose food items on a…read morepre-fixe menu for a set price. Best way to really get an idea how a restaurant is! Started the night with cocktails, and I can say, the Ambrosia is delicious. It has a tequila base with coconut cream and passion fruit. Just very good. The Light My Fire was a nice show as it cooked our and is kit on fire, but the first didn't match that is the Ambrosia. So, with DineLA, we were given bread and butter at the table. The bread was actually more they basic and had a nice flavor to it. For our appetizer, I ordered the steak tartar. On the menu, it had a lot going on with Dijon mustard, chili sauce, shallots, cognac, etc, but I can't say so if there ingredients were noticable in the flavor profile or on the pallet. But paying that on the potato crisps was still a decent bite. The salmon tartar was decent as well but didn't necessarily stand out. The real winner was the meat sushi with avocado cream and parmesan. Totally unexpected and very good! In terms of entrees, we tried a little of everything. I had the wagyu NY steak, cooked medium rare. It was cooked very well on the inside, could have had a better crust on the outside. And they give you your own side of kosher salt so you can "salt bae" it yourself. You also had a choice of side between mashed potatoes and mushrooms. I got the mushrooms and I'm very glad I did. They were very good with 2-3 tired of mushrooms in the medley. The prime NY steak was ok, it didn't really stand out, and the wagyu burger was also decent but, in Los Angeles, with so many great burgers, you really need to step your game up it you want to be noticed, and this burger did not accomplish that. With dessert, there were four options. I choose the San Sebastian Cheesecake, and, for our table, no one really loved it. It is definitely not your standard cheesecake, much less sweet and without that nice graham cracker crust you come to know and love. There was a chocolate sauce on half of it which gave it a little something extra, but it really was not a hit for our table. The pistachio baklava came with a show as the assembled it, but the energy of the show to assemble the baklava was better then the baklava itself. Overall, a nice experience, staff was nice and attentive to our take and our needs, but the food just didn't hit as we all hoped it would.

Each sandwich compentent and layer made this a memorable sandwich. The pepper was spicy enough that complemented the rich and flavorful wagyu cheesesteak filling. The sesame roll added a nice texture, and it was sturdy enough to keep the filling intact with each bite. The chips (4 stars) were delicious that came with the cheesesteak. My brother and I also shared an order of fries (4 stars) that is cooked beef tallow like Hiho. The Aged Pear Martini (5 stars) cocktail was refreshing. The bartender warned it's sweet, but I thought it had the right amount of sweetness. We arrived just before the dinner rush. The bar gets busy fulfilling drink orders for the entire restaurant and serving cheesesteaks. The service was 4 stars. I would definitely return.

Tip notched experienced waiters that were super attentive . Perhaps one of the best prime ribs dinners for quality real beef lovers not that slimy plant based crap some places serve . When I want to eat a good steak or prime rib I want a quality cut . This lived up to my expectations . Well worth the money . You don't have to order extra sides because it comes with the dinner at no extra cost like the "olden days"... So many big attitude restaurants charge for the meat or entree meat dinner and the patron is asked if any sides and even sauces are now charged separately -- a big rip! Lawry's maintains consistent quality and service. At Christmas time we would go there and Carollers stroll and sing holiday songs -- it's something different so a person feels the holiday spirit .

We were in California celebrating…read moremy cousin's bachelorette weekend, and after a few underwhelming dining experiences, Dante completely exceeded our expectations! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed warmly by Joy at the front, and our server, Alex, made the evening feel truly special. The service was exceptional, the ambiance was beautiful, and the views were the perfect finishing touch. Every detail of our experience stood out, and it quickly became our favorite restaurant of the trip. Safe to say Dante blew every other place we visited out of the water. We can't wait to come back!

It took over an hour for our food to come out. Whenever we asked our waiter for an update, he seemed annoyed and would just tell us, "probably another six or seven minutes," rather than actually checking on the status of our food. He also hardly checked in on our table, and we had to ask for drink refills instead of them being offered. At one point, he even spilled food on our table, and overall the service felt inattentive and dismissive. We also had to remind him multiple times that we were celebrating a birthday, which was frustrating considering it was supposed to be a special dinner. For the type of restaurant Dante presents itself as, I expected much better service. Waiting over an hour for our food would have been frustrating on its own, but the lack of communication and the attitude from our waiter made the experience significantly worse. Unfortunately, the service really put a damper on what was supposed to be a birthday celebration.

The meat itself was not tender delicious, just okay tasting. I ordered Medium Rare leaning towards medium cook, but it was Medium Well and kinda tough to chew. Very Disappointing for $77 steak at an overhyped place. I didn't complain because we didn't have time for a refire. Had places to go after. I've had much better cuts and much tastier meat of Rib Eye Steak at much less expensive places. They only broiler cook here, no char taste. I like charbroiled steaks much better. First time here, it's elegant and Beverly Hills, but I'm Not impressed with Menu or quality of steak. Not a destination dinner at all. No fomo- fear og missing out here folks. Over all service very attentive, but menu items are very basic, nothing interesting or innovative and don't garner the hyped up prices. I can afford fancy dinners, but this was subpar. The only real best thing was the truffle fries, But that doesn't make it a 5 star meal. Just saying.

When I first joined Yelp, in 2008, I had no idea why I would post anything. I soon realized this is…read moremy way of Yelping to Help. Help who? The hospitality industry and other consumers. So, now, during these difficult times for almost everyone, that mission seems even more important. For this reason, I have made it a point to cover a wide range of venues, from low to high and after 300 reviews, I can say with some satisfaction that I have done that consistently. Now I am turning in a slightly different direction, mostly to make myself happy first and foremost. There is enough ugliness in the world. I want to surround myself everywhere I go in beauty, kindness, and comfort. That will be the aim of my reviews for the rest of this year. Along these lines, I have been lucky enough to visit a glittering sequence of gorgeous, uplifting, exceptional places in the past month or two. Many of them are in Beverly Hills. I am not interested in the prestige of BH at all. My selection of places in one of Los Angeles's choicest "villages" is based on several factors: ease of parking (BH has low cost public garages on almost every block); aesthetics of the venue itself, both outside and inside; ingenuity and novelty of the offerings (menus; merchandise; entertainment, etc.); and cost/benefit ratio, i.e., value for the time and money spent. Beverly Hills offers all of this in one easily accessible spot and has made it possible to navigate their enjoyment during these stressful times with ease. Which brings me to The Terrace. Just one look at all the photographs I and other diners have shared and you immediately grasp the beauty, care, intelligence, creativity, and high standards The Maybourne team has applied to this delightful outdoor restaurant. The service, menu, quality of each dish and beverage, and the lovely decor and appointments complete the experience. For me, it was like some of the most elegant spots I have enjoyed in Europe, especially Italy and France. A visit to The Terrace is like a trip to the Mediterranean, especially since Beverly Hills is blessed with exceptional weather most of the year. I want to acknowledge Marianna in reception for her warm and friendly welcome. Then, Charlie and a roster of other people attended to us as if we were royalty. We felt simultaneously at home and at a banquet in Monaco! When we arrived and as we left, we were acknowledged and appreciated, as few places know how to do. I cannot think of one thing that could have been better. We loved every minute of it, in fact two hours flew by, and now we cannot wait to return. Pamper yourself by lingering over a meal in this glorious courtyard garden. It will elevate your spirits and we can all use that, right about now.

Such a charming, peaceful little escape right in the heart of Beverly Hills. It's the perfect place to slow down, enjoy a delicious meal, and soak in the lovely atmosphere. And of course, the staff deserves special recognition. The service is consistently warm, attentive, and welcoming, which is one of the many reasons I keep returning.

Our server, Levi, provided outstanding service throughout the night and was super knowledgeable and attentive. He was honestly the main reason we had such a lovely time, as his energy was great and he was constantly checking in on us and making sure we were satisfied with everything. To drink, we had the Yuzu Whiskey Sour and the Melrose Passionfruit Martini, both of which were refreshing, delicious, and paired well with our food selection. I also had a Raspberry Breeze mocktail, which was sweet, tart, and bubbly! To eat, we started with the Rock Shrimp, which had a great spicy flavor and crunch to it. We also tried the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice, which I liked, but I think the price on this item is a little steep, and you might be better off ordering another roll or menu item. For rolls, we ordered the Crunchy, the Tiger, the Lemon, and the Killer. Of these, my favorite had to be the Killer, as it was super fresh and had a great kick to it. Chef Salvador graciously sent over some Bluefin Tuna and Yellowtail nigiri for my partner and me to try, and it was such a thoughtful gesture and delicious treat for us. We were also kindly given a key lime pie to end our meal and celebration on a sweet note. The presentation for everything was lovely, and I really enjoyed the little radish stars!
