- JJessicaDenver / Colorado •25 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoReally awesome experience! Maria S was our server and she was the sweetest. It was my mom’s bday and we just decided to go for lunch. Didn’t realize there wasn’t valet parking for lunch so went in circles trying to figure out parking - park in the visitor underground parking garage of the US bank building. Restaurant will validate 2 hours of parking for $10 (instead of $40). Loved all the food. Ceviche was fresh, the pasta appetizer felt like a huge portion, hanger steak and smashed fried potatoes were divine, and the seared ahi tuna over veggies/salad was refreshing and light. The view is grand and made the meal feel so worth it.More info71AbovePrice: Very Expensive• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.7
- KKarenLos Angeles •2 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoEnjoyed our time at the lounge! The crab lettuce wraps were good. Sauce a bit spicey. Spring rolls were good & the sauce. Green beans were stringy & tough. Not much flavor. Great atmosphere!More infoBonavista Revolving Lounge at The Westin Bonaventure HotelPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.2
- PPamVIPLos Angeles •6 reviews4.0Dined 6 days agoBeautiful venue but was very cold when we arrived as the roof was open and it was a cold night. We had to move our table a couple times and they finally closed the roof and gave us blankets and it warmed up. At that point we began to enjoy ourselves and had a wonderful, very tasty meal and great service. Would return.More infoRedbird - Los AngelesPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.7
- MMichelleVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •10 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoIt was a very interesting experience for the afternoon tea. I put down my diet request which was gluten free, no diary, no nuts and sugar. The manager and the kitchen made the special menu just for me and everything was very tasty. I really appreciated their thoughtful hospitality and the professionist. A very elegant and enjoyable afternoon tea.More infoThe Biltmore Los AngelesPrice: Very Expensive• American• Downtown•4.4
