Views from the restaurant are a killer. When full, the noise level was loud (crowd was having fun).

- CChristopherLos Angeles •1 review4.0Dined on Oct 20, 2024Hands down one of the best ribeyes I have ordered from any top tier restaurant I have been to. Mood was nice, music was just right. Just the right amount of service to get what we needed and never a bother to speak to. They didn’t feel overbearing (not a mouth full of food when they asked if we needed anything) Great experience over all. Would recommend.More infoWhitebarkPrice: Expensive• Fusion / Eclectic• Mammoth•3.7
