Food: Laughter at lackluster dishes

The much-touted Zaza Pasta, Caesar Salad, and Lobster Escargot failed to impress the patrons. The pasta was lamentably forgettable, the salad tasted ordinary, and the Lobster Escargot seemed forgone. Disproportionate portions, insipid taste, and questionable freshness were generously sprinkled across the complaints. Both creativity and variety, though promising, fell short in execution.

  • Okay Taste

    Some dishes exceeded expectations while others were mediocre or lacked quality.

  • Small Portions

    Portions described as tiny given the price which disappoints customers.

Vibe: Enthralling ambiance buried in noise

The Hollywood glamour styled interior and cozy booths lured customers into their intimate confines, making it the perfect retreat for dates. However, the intrusive loud music shattered the potential of a serene dining experience, spiraling the ambiance into a tumultuous battle between ear-splitting decibels and private conversations.

  • Great Ambiance

    Elegant, Hollywood glamor with cozy booths, intimate vibe, enhances dining experience.

  • Okay Drinks

    Drinks had balance; some delays but overall good drink experiences.

  • Negative Buzz

    Place focused on looks over flavor, quality; lacks good food.

Perks: Grueling parking debacles dampen spirits

Scoring a parking spot was akin to winning a lottery, a strenuous endeavor that drastically impacted dining enjoyment. Adding to the woe, loud music drowned out conversations. Waiting for irresponsibly delayed orders under the boisterous music, on a cramped table, was equal parts awkward and unpleasant. Staff behavior added fuel to the fire.

  • Okay For Groups

    Spacious booths for large parties, but personal experiences may vary.

  • Bad Service

    Long waits, slow and rude service, with unprofessional staff and bad management.
