    Stayed for a couple of nights for a little staycation. The…read morerooms were decent. Nothing like vegas but better than your average room. The hotel itself is gorgeous. The staff were friendly and helpful. My conditioner in the bathroom was empty but it's my fault for not asking for a refill. But then, it shouldn't have been empty in the first place. Watch your step coming out of the bathroom into your room because it is slippery if your feet are wet wet. There was no mini fridge, so that sucked. Or if there was then it was locked. We did have 1 mosquito but husby killed it. Yay! There is a small pool., no lifeguard. The gift shop has with no attendant, pay by contact less payment. There is also a gym. There is the silver trumpet restaurant, you can walk to this restaurant from within the hotel. A small business center is also accessible.

    We were in town to see family and picked Avenue of the Arts Costa Mesa as our home base…read more We really lucked out by booking one of the first floor rooms with a backyard! The room itself was a fairly generic double queen hotel room, but it gained a ton of points for the private turfed backyard with lounge chairs and an outdoor dining table. Once we were done with our day of running around town, seeing family, cooking, eating, etc. we'd unwind back at the room sitting outside enjoying that fantastic mild California weather. We ate at the attached restaurant for breakfast one morning and had a wonderful meal. All food came out quickly and there were zero complaints about service or quality. There's also a somewhat hidden bar past the restaurant if you're looking for a nightcap. Both nights we swung by, they were fairly busy, but we were served quickly enough and they have a great selection. I didn't hit the pool or gym, so not too helpful of amenities there, but the hotel overall seemed to be clean and kept up to date. We ended up renting a car through Turo, and parked in the parking garage self park. It's $40/night FYI. We'll likely pick this hotel for the next visit, and look forward to updating my review then. In the meantime, give it a shot, especially if you're looking for a unique hotel room.

    Our wedding venue search scattered in Southern California included: vineyards/wineries, urban lofts…read morein Downtown LA, country clubs, hotels, private estates, and beach clubs. After doing a seemingly endless amount of site visits, we came across Fete the Venue. Did it have the picturesque vineyard in the background? No. Instead, I was safe from insects all day, especially mosquitoes. Could I hear the waves hitting the shoreline? No, but I heard my wife's vows clearly during the outdoor ceremony and didn't worry about my hair going rogue in the breeze. Unfortunately, I had attended outdoor weddings that had limited ability to come up with a contingency plan. This detail was important for us to keep in mind when selecting a venue. It was also important that we had the flexibility in selecting our vendors, including our late night bites. With some vision, creativity, and a fabulous wedding coordinator, our wedding was truly memorable.

    Disclaimer: this is a review as a guest, not as someone who rented out this place as I'm reading…read moreover the reviews. ------------------ Stumbling in on an overcast day, in my suit with an oversized wedding gift, we arrived at Fete the venue in Costa Mesa. Parking was limited as such is the venue but it makes sense as it was an intimate gathering for close friends. After checking in, we were enjoying Furiwa catering out in the courtyard. Allow me to set the scene, vintage glass lights crisscrossed the horizon, surrounded by modern wooden fence and lush green lawn. Makes for a scenic backdrop for memorable pictures. Now on to the food, furiwa's fried shu mai is the most SCRUMPTIOUS food you will ever taste! It was crunchy, rich in umami flavor in the center, with a kick of spice before BLOSSOMING into a subtle, delicate sweet aftertaste. If Willy Wonka made Dim Sun, this ever changing Shu Mai would be it! 100 Willy Wonkas out of 10 rating. The egg roll was also good but not as great. 3/5 stars even though it made for a very nice picture! The inside of fete was like a warehouse which is so cool for wedding reception these days. Fete being French for a great celebration or feast is appropriately named as the venue provided for a nice, intimate, but wild atmosphere. The bar in the back is permanent and provided lots of drinks such as midori sour, old fashioned, cranberry/pineapple vodka, Cuba libre. All in all, 5/5 stars for this venue!

    My first time down this wing. Menu looked decent so we stopped in. Restaurant was clean and fresh…read morebaked bread sitting out looked tempting. Service was fast and friendly. We both ordered the Royal with Cheese. The burger also came with fries. The bread, burger and fries were all seasoned and cooked well. I'd definitely visit again.

    Ty greeted us and sat us right away for an early lunch at 11. There were no other customers. Ty…read morewas attentive throughout the meal without being intrusive. The decor was very cute with a more classical Parisian Blue and gold accents mixed with an eclectic mix of art from American musical icons. We started with chamoagne by the glass. It was the perfect balance if sweet and dry. Croque Madame. It was perfectly crisp on the outside. The saltiness of the ham and the creaminess of the cheese were very balanced. The bernaise sauce on the side was the best part to a really delicious dish. -highly recommend The pear endive salad was good. We added the chicken because we were not having a lot of other protein for lunch, but I feel it altered the ratio of dressing to salad. I don't typically like a lot of dressing, but something slightly more acidic would have balanced out all of the rich food we were having. The greens and fruit were delicious and fresh. I would try it again, without the chicken. -recommend if you are in the mood. The french Onion Soup was delicious. It does take awhile, likely because they are making it fresh, so factor that in for time. The taste transported me to Paris, 30 years ago. Such a classic recipie. -strongly recommend. Creme brulee - we were stuffed. We didn't finish our soups, the salad, or the Croque Madame.... so that could have factored into my impression on the creme brulee. It was good and very classic. It was what you think of when you think of a very traditional creme brulee. I wanted it to be exceptional, but it was good. The espresso paired perfectly. - recommend for Creme Brulee lovers. My friend ordered the rice pudding abd she lived it. She said the pistachios were sich a lovely touch. I would definitely return and order the Croque Madame!
