Lorea has a beautiful view! If that's what you're looking for it is gorgeous! I have gone there twice for brunch and both times food was just not great. 1st time I had a fish sandwich and the fish was dry, the 2nd time I had the burrata toast and it was just ok, the bread seemed a bit stale. Drinks are great! Their dinner is better than their brunch. read more

We finally decided to try this place since we go to Pacific City quite often, but very disappointed. Since it was the yearly air show we had to get put on a wait list so we walked around pacific city and get seated in about an hour later. Can't beat the location right on PCH. Our server was friendly friendly and attentive. We ordered 2 kids items the Caesar salad with chicken tenders and a burger with fries. The salad was very soggy and the chicken was very salty. The burger was mediocre and didn't have much taste. We also ordered the brunch platter, which came with quite a few items for brunch and I was not a big fan of the food. The pancakes we got had corn in them, which is pretty unique and tasty, but the waffles has some sort of thyme that made it taste very unique. I wish I went with the chicken and waffle sandwich, which was highly recommended. My consider giving them a second chance just because of location but highly doubt it since there's so many other great options available out there. read more

Honestly incredibly disappointed in this experience. I had high hopes and expectations for Lorea. For the positives, the side dish of the roasted carrots was exquisite with flavor and sauce combination. The salmon was also cooked and seasoned decently well. The burgers was decent. Despite the food being cooked well, it was incredibly over priced for what was provided. My disappointment came from the distasteful menu set up and lack of customer service. The "from the sea" portion of the menu is a high priced protein portion that comes with nothing. Not even a sauce! You have to pay to add on any sauces or sides. To me, this is incredibly greedy and easily turns a $40 protein dish into a $70 dish for extremely small portions. Additionally, I've dined at many high end restaurants who are always more than happy to provide a small dessert or complimentary water at the bare minimum when celebrating a birthday.. lorea did absolutely nothing except charge $9 for a bottle of Pellegrino. I personally would recommend skipping this place. You can get a much better meal at a fraction of the cost somewhere else. read more

Just left Lorea and we were blown away by the service and attentivness by the staff. We were served by Ruben H. and definetly need to shout him out as he made the experience a 10 out of 10!! Great job and we will 100% be visiting again ASAP! read more

Recently visited for breakfast this past week. What an amazing place with amazing food. Haley was our server and she did a fantastic job. It was my girlfriend's birthday and she made sure to go above and beyond for our special meal. Will definitely be coming back to try their lunch and dinner as well. read more

The food was SOOOOOOO good, highly recommend the pork belly and the fudge brownie...heaven. Service was great from start to finish! The hostess Isabella was so warm and welcoming and chef Wilson made us the absolute best food. Currently in a food coma writing this lol. Great ambiance and all the staff is really friendly and knowledgeable! read more

This experience was amazing. Bella the host was so kind and inviting when we arrived and the food stole the show! Chef Wilson was amazing!! Started with pork belly lettuce wraps the rolls, and ended with the pasta and brownie for dessert. Everything exceeded expectations while dinning here. Will come come again ! read more

Truly disappointed in the food. First I went here because the hostess said they can do anything I ask them to cook outside their menu items due to allergies. My kid has a severe egg allergy and cashew. Once we were seated they proceeded to tell me there is nothing without egg. They couldn't do plain rice, didnt have sourdough bread or any kind of starch not containing egg product. My kid ate cucumber and avocado which is ridiculous. How can you tell me you can do anything and cook anything and then tell me you have nothing you can give me to eat. I ordered the ribeye steak it was not 12oz, quality was bellow average for $60hopomg my kid would eat it. I expect a thick cut and no veins in it. Iow quality and false advertisement mu kod wouldnt touch it. If you say you can make anything for peole with allergies then this means you have choices not just cucumber and avocado. Very disappointed but more upset that my child went hungry and I had to rush home to make him something to eat so he wouldn't go to bed with an empty stomach. I should have just walked away from here when the waiter told me they had no bread, no pasta nothing without egg but unfortunately my kid needed to eat and I had no choice. read more

We had a date night dinner here, as an escape from our kiddos. It was a beautiful view, great food (especially the Ribeye steak and heirloom carrots) plus the Carrot cake!!! Amazing!!! Our waiter Johnathan was the absolute BEST, helping us select and pick out the best drinks and food, and was just amazing all around! We will definitely be back with our whole family! read more

I had the pleasure this morning of having breakfast with Cam. As far as hotel breakfasts go, I cannot express how amazing cam was, it made up for the bland food. Usually my yelp reviews directly involve the taste of the food, but cam made me completely forget about the bland food with her amazing service. I will definitely go again, and ask for her to serve. read more

We arrived with a reservation, and still waited 20 minutes. In fact, we had to go back to the host stand to ask to be seated and when we walked in the restaurant was 75% empty. The waitress was was lovely but it took 35 mns to receive pancakes, biscuits, fruit, chicken tenders and a salad. Insane considering there was NO.ONE.THERE. The food was excellent- special even. But be prepared for 4 clueless teenaged hostesses to dismiss you, and to wait a painfully long time for food. read more

We really enjoyed our dining experience at Lōrea. We had the crab cakes, which were perfectly smokey flavored due to the caviar they put in them. Following the crab cakes we indulged in the ribeye, cooked perfectly to medium as ordered, with the delicious Chimichurri on the side. We ordered the carrots and the fried rice as sides which were also delectable and delicious. 10 out of 10 I would do this again. Thank you for the excellent dining experience. read more

Our server Anika was fantastic! She gave great recommendations--from drinks to appetizers to dinner--and everything was spot on. My wife and I are true foodies, and this experience hit the mark. The food was excellent, the service was above and beyond, and the overall vibe was perfect. We'll definitely be back--see you next time! read more

We had dinner here with a few friends and had a great time. We had a great seat on the patio with a beautiful view of the ocean. The glass does a great job of blocking the wind so it wasn't uncomfortable. The food was really good. There wasn't one thing that we ordered that wasn't good. The service was good, everyone was very nice, attentive, and knowledgeable. We will for sure be back! read more

Lovely patio. Very comfortable with amazing views. Kitchen was incredibly slow with almost no one here for a late lunch. Wait staff was amazing. Food is good to very good. read more

The service and ambiance is exceptional. A seat for two looking out to the ocean. This is for the chef...the bread that was $18 tasted like those rolls you pop out of a can. Something was wrong with those. Someone did not let them rise? The miso salad was bizarre. The ingredients did not complement each other. It seemed a combination of Texas Roadhouse meets Sushi. I wanted something spicy so I chose the chicken. Presentation was beautiful but the chicken was tasteless. The seabass was good. Make sure you purchase a sauce to accompany it. I want all restaurants to succeed-I hope this helps you. read more

Great ambiance. The server was very attentive. The food was overall very good and flavorful. Got the kimchi fried rice and duck. The drinks were also very good. read more

This place was SO GOOD. Literally so good, everything was amazing. The Lorea burger was so good the Rosemary fries were amazing. The server was so good all the people here are so nice. read more

My husband and I checked out this place for the first time & fell in love with the ambience. It's a beautiful covered patio. That's bright and overlooks the ocean. The food was delicious and fresh. Our server Haley was sweet & attentive. And the manager Ron checked on his multiple times and went above and beyond. We will definitely be back. read more

Lovely experience. Great food. Our waitress Ana was fabulous and made the experience better. Really enjoyed the live music as well.

We enjoyed everything we ordered. We started with pork gyoza. They were delicious. For dinner we ordered the ribeye with peppercorn sauce. Scallops in a pea sauce and kimchi fried rice. Everything was delicious. The staff was friendly and attentive. My dirty martini and spicy margarita were perfect too. read more

Love everything especially scallops and candle butter dip for bread. Great location and very cute ambiance

Would not recommend this restaurant. Our server was great but the overall place needs work. We had to send back our steaks. The menu makes zero sense. I ordered the filet and it was $46 and they come with zero side. The filet wasn't great and it was so small. How this restaurant is still in business with their prices and food sizes blows my mind. They didn't comp or give us a discount for the multiple mess ups. Another person at the table next to us also sent their steak back. If I'm paying a $500 tab the food and portions need to be worth $500 read more

The food, service, and ambiance were all top notch. Jonathan was our server and he absolutely made our birthday celebration amazing. He made sure everyone had everything they needed, and even brought blankets if anyone felt cold out on the veranda. read more

really dissapointed to have had such a poor experience at a restaurant in the neighborhood we were so excited to try. The steaks were poor quality and far under cooked to order of medium and medium well. But the server attitude and care was what really was so disappointing and thoroughly ruined the evening. Another server actually overheard and stepped closer to listen and stepped in apologizing. read more

We went to Lorea last night for dinner with a couple of friends. It was our first time. We tried a variety of starters, entrees and sides. The staff overall was attentive and courteous but our server fell short of spectacular. Regarding the food, the first issue we had was we ordered Parker house rolls that came out at room temperature. At 19 bucks for a plate of bread rolls, I would have expected them to be served warm out of the oven. This was a start of what seemed to be a common theme for the night. All the food that came out while tasty, none was particularly piping hot. We found the scallops and the brinzino to be well cooked but forgettable. The mashed potatoes were tasty but had way too much butter. The carrots and the sauce that came with them were tasty and interesting. The highlight of the food for me was the short rib fried rice which was a good combination of flavors and just the right level of spice. We were presented with a dessert menu but at some point that many disappeared from our table. Our server never asked if we cared to order dessert and we received the bill. Overall, the ambiance, location and decor were all up to snuff but the food, particularly the temperature of the food and the service fell short for the price point of this restaurant. read more

This place was amazing! The remodel just completed brought it up levels. Food was great, everything we ordered- hamburger, salmon salad, BLT, Avo toast-sooo good! And service matched the food! If your lucky and get Jake as your server you will be well taken care of. read more

We visited Saturday night for a Mother's dinner. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had the halibut and the steak. The steak was very good and cooked perfect. The halibut was a little try but the lemon sauce helped some. The sides were tasty and the carrot cake desert was excellent and enough for three. The dinner was a little on the pricey side but that's to be expected in today's time. Now for the "not so good" part. The acoustics were bad because of the open seating area making it very noisey. Having booth seating may have helped a little. The absence of table cloths made it seem a little like a cafeteria. I was a little surprised the view while sitting a the bar was the pool, because you never know what you're going to see. The outside heaters weren't working properly so we sat inside. With the doors open that are facing the ocean, it was a "freeze out" inside as well. They did offer blankets but who wants to eat in an upscale restaurant and need to have a blanket on. Please close the doors facing the ocean on cool, breezy evenings. I know resturants are a tuff business so I wish you the very best. read more

Very disappointed they are not uet ready to be labeled fine dining. Food is very over priced for average tasting food. What is i excusable is the terribly slow service. The servers do not know the menu and cannot answer questions. It took over 2.5 hours to complete dinner service and restaurant was empty. Waitress disappeared for over 10 to 30 minutes at a time. No refills not offer straws too 30 minutes to get a straw once request. Advised of food allergies and was offered item that would have killed my wife. The parking is also ridiculous. $16 after validating. All servers just standing around. Tanners was much better. Staff needs more training chef needs better seasoning. Wish would have chosening restaurant at waterfront for anniversary as they never disappoint read more

My family and I enjoyed a very delightful lunch, here. The ambiance and the food was exquisite. Our server, Catherine, was very personable and provided excellent customer service. The manager, Jose, was very accommodating, and wanted to make sure we enjoyed our food. The ambiance was beautiful, as well. Overall, a great experience! read more

I normally don't write bad reviews for restaurants. But we Just got back from our anniversary dinner. Had cocktails at the bar, great cocktail menu and lovely waitress. The venue is wonderful with amazing beach views. Food was just OK, service was really slow, almost nonexistent. Hostesses were like deer in the headlights when we asked if we could decant our wine and when I told them there hadn't been any soap in the bathroom all night. Unless we were going to have a cocktail and then go somewhere else for dinner we probably would not return. read more

If I could give this place no stars I absolutely would. I stayed overnight at the Paséa and was told our room wasn't ready so we went to the Lorea Bar to have a drink. Amongst sitting down it took a while for a bartender to come and greet us. Once the bartender came over we ordered our drink and waited another 30 mins after to order another drink. By this time it had been 5pm and we had been there an hour and was only asked twice if we wanted to order. We watched everyone around us get more attention which was both confusing and annoying. The following morning we were checking out and had a 11am brunch reservation at the Lorea Restaurant. We checked in at 10:30 with the hostess and were told tables were not ready so we decided to sit at the bar again while one of the tables became available. This wasn't an issue for us since we knew we were 30 mins early and thought we would go ahead and enjoy a nice mimosa at the bar. That mimosa never came because the bartender again never came to take our order. We watched a couple two chairs away from us order and get their drinks well before we were asked if we wanted anything. 30 mins later our table had became available in which we were finally approached by a bartender who said they were busy and then suddenly back tracked and stated "well we're not really busy busy just short staffed". Me and my partner were very confused by her response and told her to forget it because our table had become available anyways. When we got seated, we had noticed 3 other parties around us who had gotten there at the same time we did. The waitress took our drink order, and after she dropped off our drinks she took our food order. We were seated at 11:05, food ordered at 11:15, and the food never came. We waited until 11:45 and that's when we realized all the parties around us including some more folks that came after us, had gotten their meals but we didn't. I was extremely upset at this point because I strongly believe the table next to us may have gotten our meal on accident because they received the same order we placed. I told the waitress to cancel our order at this point because I was upset at the fact that no one ever checked on us to see if we had received our food and that every table except us got their food. The manager came up to us and attempted to help us with making the situation right but it felt as though this situation was now becoming personal since this had already been the 3rd time we were kept waiting. I understand that being short staffed or being busy can be an issue for some locations but that was not the case here. We witnessed many staff and a decent amount of folks dining in and they were given exceptional service by what we noticed, except us. This entire experience has left us ever questioning whether or not we'll ever stay at the Pasea or enjoy any establishment associated with the Hotel. We have been visitors at this hotel before and were extremely saddened by the harsh service we were given, or any service received thereof. It was not the way I wanted to spend my birthday weekend which is what saddens me the most. I always raved about this place but can't muster up the courage to do that anymore. read more

me and my girlfriend went out to have dinner and drinks we got a couple appetizers, steak, and salad. The food was horrible. No flavor, just plain, overpriced, I barely ate any of it. I would definitely never come back. The view was really nice and our server was sweet. But I feel like u can find a better place to eat for sure. The drinks were good too just the food sucked read more
