    Valentine’s Day reservation. Place was of course packed. Food took an hour to come out, said it would be 30min cause the skirt steak wanted to be well done so takes longer to cook, then the skirt steak came out and half was well done and the other side was medium. So waited all that time for nothing. Other than that it was a good place

    Four of us having dinner. We ordered tomahawk steaks for the four of us. One was OK. The other one was not. We ordered a medium rare one came out rare, and the other one came out, medium we showed the waiter how both of them were cooked and he says oh sorry about that. When you pay over $135 for a steak, you expect it to be cooked correctly The other side dishes were OK

    They were probably overwhelmed with dineLA patrons and also understaffed. Service was terrible and food was meh. I remember it being better in the past. We didn’t even order from the dineLA menu.

    Although I made a reservation I was told by the hostess we had to wait 20 minutes because of an event they had. So unacceptable since the purpose of a reservation is to be seated at the appropriate time. Then our waiter forgot our iced tea and 3rd course dessert, and had to be reminded. The food was extremely slow to come out and our waiter had to be flagged down to bring our check. Thanks to the terrible service, we were late to our concert. Very disappointed with my experience.
