- RRobertWashington, D.C. Area •4 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoThis is an exceptional restaurant, particularly for its views on a sunny day. The service is very good and the food was good. I had the lobster roll which was more a lobster burger and my friend, a Cobb salad that was a deconstructed Cobb and not in a good way. The fish appetizers were good. It is quite the scene and the great place to “wow” out of town visitors. I find the $20 valet parking annoying.More infoThe Rooftop at Waldorf Astoria - Beverly HillsPrice: Very Expensive• American• Beverly Hills•4.8
- AArianaJacksonville / Northeast Florida •3 reviews5.0Dined on Jan 3, 2025STK Los Angeles is the spot if you’re looking for a vibe that screams luxury and fun. Think juicy steaks, epic cocktails, and a live DJ to keep the energy up all night. Perfect for content, btw—this place is a whole aesthetic. Here’s the rundown from my night: •The Food: I went with the Ribeye (highly recommend), and the Cheesecake was next-level. It’s definitely a splurge, but worth every bite. •The Vibes: Chic, trendy, and buzzing with energy. It’s not just a dinner; it’s an experience. Great lighting for photos, too! •Service: Shoutout to Danny (my server), who made everything seamless and fun. Whether you’re celebrating or just want to treat yourself, STK delivers. Pro tip: make a reservation early because this place gets packed. Check them out on OpenTable to book your table!More infoSTK - Los AngelesPrice: Very Expensive• Steak• Westwood•4.3
- DDavidVIPLos Angeles •22 reviews5.0Dined on Jan 1, 2025New Years Day and we wanted some place that we knew would be fantastic, so where else but Gjelina? It was busy but the hosts and servers were unfailingly polite. We ordered 6 things from the menu. My wife's vegan so she had the vegetable sandwich (she had to fight me for it, it was so good). Brussel sprouts, grilled fennel, and the frites were all great. My son and I split the anchovy and burrata toast - a first for me - and it's my new favorite. Finished with the excellent pomodoro pizza - no cheese and none needed, because the jammy tomato confit is the star of the dish. I love this place. It never lets me down. Happy 2025!More infoGjelinaPrice: Expensive• American• Venice•4.7
