Lovely! The ambience and food were great! Can't wait to come back. Service was excellent

Great atmosphere, good food. Their beef wellington was really good. The dining room in the back wasn't that special.

The best meal I've had in years - Paris / NYC / La - this chef is playful and legit. I highly recommend the Crudo / Duck / and the wine list to pair. It's legit 5 stars - thank you for a marvelous solo night. I will return often. Bravo. Also the views and perfect service, music and vibe are perfection. read more

Wow--such an impressive experience! This spot completely blew me away with its stunning views and the gorgeous interior--the aesthetic is both elevated and romantic. I came here on a date and it truly delivered the perfect ambiance for something special. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and personable, which made the entire evening feel warm and welcoming. We had the steak tartare, risotto, and ribeye--everything was absolutely delicious. And don't skip the banana dessert--it was the perfect sweet finish with an impressive mini show! A must if you're visiting Long Beach and want some fine dining with a view of the water. I'll definitely be back. read more

I visited this establishment solo on a business trip upon the recommendation of a local colleague. I was able to walk in and get a seat at the bar despite not having a reservation. The staff were all super friendly and attentive. I grazed on a few appetizers and was too full for a full entree. The grass fed steak tartare was delicious. Well cut, well seasoned - but the dusty chips were very fragile and relatively flavorless despite being heavily coated in a relatively flavorless green powder. If the chips were swapped this would have been a perfect dish. The hiramasa crudo was perfect. Fresh and loaded with simple but complex flavors. The crispy radishes were a perfect textural balance. The very simple uni toast was a delectable bite. I think there could have been a better choice of bread (like a sturdy sourdough instead of what looked like white sandwich bread) but the uni itself was fresh, buttery and delectable (so much so that I ordered a second one to wrap up my meal!) The interior is gorgeous and inviting making thr perfect ambiance for a quiet solo dinner, a date or a group celebration. I'll definitely visit again when I am back in Long Beach. read more

Excellent service and excellent food make for an incredible experience. So, the big draw of this place is the location with the 360 views of downtown long beach and the ocean; incredible views. But, the somewhat recent remodel also makes the building incredibly beautiful; all the art deco touches really nod to the venues past and make it stunning. The staff is incredible eager to get you what you want and make your visit special. The Table for Two Tuesday deal is an incredible meal at a great value. Starting with a very large caesar salad and parker house rolls before the signature beef wellington accompanied by the mash potato side. The parker house rolls are warm and so soft and spongy with butter you barely have to touch to spread; they are delicious. The caesar dressing is tasty, not sure if made in house and they top it with ample cheese. The beef wellington is the star; the beef just melts in your mouth and the outside gives it that salty goodness taste. The potato are almost as much butter as potato; which makes them the perfect side. Even the wine pairing is better than one would normally get with a deal like this. I can't wait to go back. Incredible meal and experience. read more

Long Beach resident here. Was a huge fan of the original Breakers and frequented the Sky Room often for events and special occasions. The new Sky Room is magnificent as is the new hotel overall. Absolutely beautiful decor and ambience. However, the food choices were lacking and underwhelming at the Sky Room in terms of appetizers. We stopped by the Sky Room for appetizers and drinks before dinner and it was so absolutely disappointing and overpriced. The drinks were great. Solid. However, the appetizer portions were meager and overly priced. The Maine Lobster appetizer was comprised of tiny bits of lobster scraps in a frothy liquid that didn't taste like much of anything. Super disappointing especially at $27. The Chestnut and Truffle Soup was just as disappointing. It was neither a cup nor a bowl size - more like truffle sauce drizzled over a few chestnuts for $23. Spending $50 on two appetizers that were bland and minuscule was a real letdown. Never again. Much better appetizers in the Alter Ego, the bar/lounge downstairs on the first floor where the calamari, truffle fries and other appetizers are delicious and appropriately priced. IMHO the Italian restaurant, Nettuno, on the first floor of the hotel is much better - great food at reasonable prices. Can't speak to the quality of the main courses at the Sky Room but I won't be trying them any time soon given the outrageous cost for appetizers that fell so far below our expectations. read more

My experience only. Did not dine at this location but merely ordered cocktails. Went here at 9:45pm. Last call for alcohol since this place stops serving alcohol at 10pm. Ordered champagne and dirty martini. Overall the customer service was nice and the drinks were your average price with a few dollars more A good ambiance to chill , I am yet to dine here. I can't give the full star experience until I do so. Overall, I will come back. Dissappointed on how early this place closes along with adult beverage cutoff at 10pm. Hopefully that changes soon. read more

Fantastic views of the bay if you sit by the window. The tables for 2 are mostly by the window. Schedule through OpenTable to get your points. Live music on the first floor with a jazz bar and rooftop dance music. Rooftop has views of the bay and downtown. Food was excellent. Wagyu beef Wellington is amazing. Not worth the $168 price tag but if you haven't tried it, it really is special. Small portions for appetizers... more like appe-teasers. Crab cake, not cakes, were the best with the upgraded caviar and roe. read more

Unimpressed. The interior charm and elegance make this spot what it is, for it is certainly not its wine list, food, servers, or hostess. The service is woefully understaffed and even behave overwhelmed and lacking cordiality. I was told I could sit in the lounge (and unfortunately sat under a very cold air vent blown directly onto the bench) but after not seeing a server for some time had to get up and get my own menu, then wait longer for a wine menu that had offerings like a basic bar. Ugh, the disappointment of this spot when I love Netturo so much! The service was also shockingly slow and the server wouldn't even wait for me to put in a wine AND food order. As a server myself, it's rude and speaks to a novice in a high end spot trying to fit in. The crab cake was small but also unseasoned by herbs or spices and only flavored by the creamy base and salty caviar - I found no balance and was again unimpressed. It may be because they're newly open but I have no desire to go back. Good luck to you all and may those who try it have a better experience. Try Netturo downstairs, you won't regret it. read more

It seems that everyone working at this hotel is miserable. The hostess was not friendly. Our server seemed extremely nervous and the while vibe was just weird. But the worst part was the food. I ordered the chicken breast, mashed potatoes and salad. The chicken should have been labeled airline chicken cause it tasted like it was heated in a microwave on the plane. I actually think I've had better food on a plane. The mashed potatoes were ok but nothing special. My salad was dry and lifeless. The only redeeming quality is the ambiance and view. This is a sexy spot for DRINKS. But I'd leave the ridiculously priced food alone. read more

Food quality was good. Server was friendly but service was painfully slow. Don't come here if you're in a hurry. Place was nice inside with a great view of the city. Good for a romantic evening. For me the cauliflower side dish was the best thing I had. The cod was ok. read more

First off it's absolutely beautiful. Not great lighting for pics so please keep that in mind. Started with the obscenely dirty martini for me, my general go to is a dirty Bombay sapphire martini with a hard shake & regular olives. Theirs was delightful but different. The Mrs had the Betty Paige, balanced & best with the champagne added to the drink. Next, Parker house rolls - smaller than usual but OMG delicious. And the crudités with green goddess - farmers market (from Santa Monica) veg, radish, baby radish, heirloom carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers, delish. Mains - Black cod for me, perfectly cooked & that endive, to die for. Honestly though, IMO - could have done without the sauce. Butter poached lobster for the Mrs. All in all - a fantastic experience, great service, beautiful space, good wine list without a huge markup. Looking forward to returning. read more

So let me tell you this place made my birthday a great experience. I called for a last minute reservation and they were able to make that happen with a party of 5. The experience of just being there and the view was absolutely amazing for it being our 1st time. Eric was our guy, he made our table the center of attention. Very welcoming and the greatest attitude. For it being our 1st time there his recommendations were spot on. The appetizers, drinks and main course were 100% amazing and delicious. Not one bad dish at ALL! thank you to the full staff that made this night to remember and family can not stop talking about it. read more

I have had beef swellington before at several establishments. This is the worst I've ever had. It was like they cooked the steak or the meat and they wrapped the pastry around. When you cut it. The pastry fell apart from the meat. That was no cohesiveness to it at all. Whatever you do, do not order the beef wellington. To pay a 165 dollars for this is totally robbery. But this was the worst speed fellington, I've ever had Please thank you read more

Finally ate there after wanting to since the renovation. The Sky Room is gorgeous! They did a very nice job (I liked it before but it was definitely run-down). I have read mixed reviews so let me identify what I thought was the best and what might be improved. Waiter Service was phenomenal (ask for David, who is impeccable but many seemed to know what they are doing); the young woman who brings around the Flambe Dessert Cart was both excellent at her job and pleasantly entertaining as well. Unfortunately, when we first arrived, the Hostess gave us a bit of attitude because the other couple was stuck in traffic. Eventually they did seat us, which was appreciated. I bring my own wine most places. Sky Room has an okay list and gave me no grief whatsoever over corkage ($50 per bottle) and our Waiter David brought over upgraded glasses for each of our bottles and cheerfully poured the wines with skill and nary a drop! The menu is somewhat limited and changes regularly; the salads and sides were delicious and well-constructed. We ordered 3 of the Hangar Steaks and 2 came out at the desired temperature (mine, alas, was overcooked and a bit tougher than it should have been). The Halibut had an amazing sauce! I regret that no one but me wanted to order the caviar, but we made up for that by having the cheese plate and both of the Flambe desserts (Bananas Foster and Apple) and they were a great way to end the evening! I thought the cocktails were priced too high (affect of the view, most likely) and I was ecstatic that the Valet Parking was only $10. All-in-all it was a very pleasant evening and we will definitely go there again! So should you! read more

We visited the Sky Room last night to celebrate a birthday. The whole experience was magical. Walking in was like going back in time to a 1920s jazz club. The lighting, the decor and the views were such a vibe! Service was impeccable...very personal and tailored like a VIP experience. We had the uni and prawns as an appetizer, both were so fresh and delicious. But the main star of the night was the wagyu beef Wellington! A bit on the higher end but completely worth it! It was our first visit and definitely not going to be the last! read more

There's a level of luxury patrons expect to experience when it comes to fine dining--something I'm not new to. I chose Sky Room as I was hosting out of town guests in Long Beach, and have personally had quality care at numerous Fairmont locations. Unfortunately, Sky Room did not match this in the slightest. The receptionist at the front could use extensive training in customer service, most importantly communications and properly dealing with patrons. Also, dress code was horrendously not enforced and it showcased an embarrassing lack of detail to my guests who immediately questioned the quality of the restaurant based on the other guests. It devalued the ambience immediately. Also, additional staff including the Manager on duty was extremely rude and would not leave my party alone from Halo to our reservation in the Sky Room. He was beyond crass and clearly didn't uphold the level of customer care experience most Fairmont establishments do across the globe. I will not be dining here again. read more

Highly recommended. We were here during the Grand Prix and lucky to get a reservation. But you could just go to the bar. Gorgeous, beautiful and very classy. Delicious Parker rolls and table side dessert flambe. read more

A wonderful dinner option for any sort of celebration! We came on a Thursday night to celebrate our anniversary and had the best time minus a few interactions. Deductions for two stars reasoning at the end. Located on the 13th floor of the Fairmont Breakers Hotel, this restaurant is beautiful. I have been to the original Sky Room and agree that the updates have made this place one of a kind. We were seated at a larger booth and was served by Jessica A who was WONDERFUL. Gave us great tips and advice and really coursed out our whole dinner perfectly. We ordered: - Parkers Rolls - cannot go wrong - Crab cake with the caviar butter ... with the parkers rolls dipped in the butter? 10/10 Shout out Jessica A. who told us to do this - Fresh oysters on the half shell - these were SO good and light and sweet and so, so rich - Caesar Salad - I enjoyed this, but not the star of the show - Uni toast - one bite toasts that were amazing, the amount of uni was perfect - Duck pate with crackers - delicious, loved the pickled cherry that came with it - Beef Wellington - this was actually so perfect and melt in your mouth with the crisp of the pastry shell. Very, very umami. This dish in addition to the appetizers could definitely be shared. If we ever get it again we might just have to be with a party of 4! - Drinks: Old Fashioned and Pacific Margarita - a great compliment to the meal Reason for the deduction is because I emailed the Fairmont Hotel and the only email I could find for the Sky Room about negative interactions with a hostess throughout and at the end of dinner and also inquired about their digital camera policy and received no response. First, our server offered to take a photo of us with our camera seated at our table and a hostess came over and reprimanded all of us saying "no digital cameras per hotel policy" which we (us as well as our server) all were confused about. This interaction made my partner and I feel like we had to be on our best behavior and had to worry about other policies we didn't know about. We looked online and on our reservation notes, and there is no policy listed anywhere regarding digital cameras . We understand paid photographers and photoshoots need permits and if we were interrupting other guests with taking the photos or flash - but this was not the case at all.. unless the hostess considers their own server a paid photographer? There are photos taken on digital cameras all over social media and Yelp, one I saw definitely with the same camera I have (Fujifilm X100V). After, the hostess gave us bad vibes all night - with two interactions confirming to me that this may have been purposeful: giving me a subtle (up down) dirty look while walking to the bathroom and then ignored us as we were leaving and we smiled directly at her with eye contact and said "bye thank you!" with us the only people walking past and her being the only person at the stand. While I do highly recommend coming here for a special occasion for the delicious food, great drinks, cool ambiance and the views - I am a little hesitant for future reservations since I do not want to be treated the same way by this specific hostess! Which is unfortunate because all the other servers and hosts were exceptional. In addition, would have loved a response to my emails regarding this hotel policy and if it is policy why it is not applied to or communicated to all guests. read more

Everything was excellent. Beautiful views, a dining room that is contemporary, elegant, and not too formal. Friendly and attentive service. Terrific cocktails (I loved the Garden Vesper). The wine by the glass list was underwhelming...only three red options. But the food was the star. The menu was both classic and modern. The uni avocado toast and crab cake were delicious. Chicken and scallop entrees were prepared perfectly. I moved the traditional dessert options like flambe and baked Alaska. Definitely recommend when in Long Beach! read more

The dining room was impeccable, and the menu reflected the caliber I expected at such a premium price point. However, I left feeling disappointed by the service experience. The hostess greeted us with a cold, almost indifferent tone, which set an unwelcoming first impression. Throughout the evening, several interactions with staff came across as short and transactional rather than attentive and anticipatory. For a venue of this caliber, I would expect warmth, proactive service, and clear communication about pacing and course timing. I believe the team would benefit from additional training in guest engagement. Seems amateur hour over there honestly!! read more

We were here before the renovation and were very impressed with the food, service, and the view. We couldn't wait for the restaurant to reopen just to be very disappointed. Gone are the days when you didn't even have to ask for something. The servers always were around. There's even someone to sweep the bread crumbs of your table cloth. None of that is happening now. Did I mention there's no table cloths. Oh yeah, no bread either so problem solved right:(? The foods are a downgrade from what we used to. We had a couple of drinks which were ok. We had duck liver and crackers. The crackers were hard. Liver had honey in it which over powered the main ingredient, duck liver. We had chicken and pork chop for dinner. The portions are small. We are not big eaters by any means but our dinners were more of appetizer portions. May be this is intentional so we would have room for desserts? Which we did... we had apples flambé and chocolate mousse tart. We were not impressed. The bar was set very high before and unfortunately, the new sky room has a lot of room for improvement. I don't care if they have to charge more, don't skimp on portions. We left the restaurant unsatisfied and unfulfilled. read more

Great service, very high food quality with delicious flavor profiles, comfortable atmosphere, and the BEST Beef Wellington we have EVER had.

Came in expecting a solid meal with a view and left wondering if I'd accidentally ordered off the toddler tasting menu. Portions were microscopic. I paid $21 extra for ONE additional scallop--yes, literally one. The crab cake could've doubled as a cough drop. Flavor was fine, but when the plate looks like a garnish and the bill looks like a car payment, there's a problem. Left hungry and annoyed. Only go if someone else is treating you or you enjoy paying premium prices for sample sizes. Hard pass from me. read more

Best hotel in downtown Long Beach and one of my favorite fine dining options! The hotel has so many nice bar options in the lobby, restaurant and rooftop.

Finally a fine dining experience in DTLB. Long Beach has many great restaurants, but this one tops them all. Loaded with history and beautifully restored. The service is outstanding. The decor will transport you to another world and the views from the tables next to the windows are awesome. Coming to the food - it is truly the star here. We tried prawn cocktail, bread and crude for appetizers and each item was outstanding. The flavors were fresh and perfectly balanced. The crudo just exploded on your taste buds. For entree I shared the fish (John Dory) with my friend, while others tried the Wagyu beef Wellington, which they said was excellent and the lobster. The fish was perfectly cooked and the sauce was delicious. The sides were good too. The chef came to our table and explained about all the items. I thought that it was a classy touch. We ended with the poached pear for dessert. This place is special and definitely made for a special occasion. Prices are steep. Be prepared to spend between $100-150 pp with drinks, but it's totally worth it. read more

Hotel is beautifully refurbished! Glad the skyroom opened up again. I remember the former being dark and again got that same as I walked in. Acoustics are off in there not that many people and yet it was very loud. Weight staff is amazing, our server David was great. Limited menu and decided on a delicious Caesar salad, interesting taste of the poached lobster dish that celery pieces. I don't like celery but it gave this dish a twist in flavor, didn't love it and didn't gate it. The "pommes" mash potatoes were super tasty! For dessert I went with banana foster, that was the cherry on top as it was my birthday dinner. Hoping for more food choices next time around (steak). read more

The Breakers Sky Room was too expensive, and the food was not the quality expected. I frequent 5star restaurants and was completely disappointed considering the expected standard! We had a large party of 14 for a birthday celebration and were initially seated separately. I bought a bottle of wine and expected a Corkage fee but bought an additional bottle ($155) & expected the corkage fee would be waived but was also charged a 20% large party fee. I will NEVER SPEND MY MONEY THERE AGAIN!!!! I have to say the Caviar Amuse-Bouche touch was excellent, but by no means made up for the overall HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!!!! Save your $$ for a better experience. I I suggest Spaghettini in Seal Beach!!!!!!!!!!!!! SKY ROOM IS A THUMBS DOWN SQUARED X INFINITY!!!! read more

Our expectations for the new Sky Room were extremely high and with one exception our expectations were met. The food was really great. Not inexpensive and so you would expect that. We shared a Caesar Salad and then I had the Black Cod and my husband had the Hangar Steak. Both were very tasty. Everything was delicious. Our server and other staff were very attentive and friendly. The view is still beautiful. We made our reservation for 5pm so that we could see a bit of the sunset. It was lovely. Our only complaint with The Sky Room would be the furnishings. The chairs have very short arms and, literally, almost no back. I could not even hang my purse from the arm without it resting on the floor. We could not get comfortable and we are not super tall people. After dinner we went up to The Halo Bar only to find chairs that were just as uncomfortable. Super low and a short little back. We didn't stay long, and maybe that's their plan... We had a very nice, romantic evening and would love to go back but hope that they replace the chairs. read more
