    Always a top choice for its exquisite view and overwhelming architecture, Escena is a great place to bring guests, as it's truly impressive. Be careful of its hours and menu specials, as they can be confusing. That said, be sure to go on a clear day and enjoy everything that Escena has to offer!

    Part clubhouse / part nice restaurant, Escena is a hybrid restaurant in a lovely facility with a great view. We were there for a casual business lunch and found Escena met our needs. Menu offered variety AND healthy choices. Service was good and appropriate (NOT intrusive). Will definitely return and recommend. (Location close to freeway makes it a great meeting point as well.)
