Dined last night for our anniversary and was provided a lovely card (upon arrival) and brownie a la mode after our meal. Terry was our waiter for the evening. He was attentive, honest, and provided helpful recommendations. My partner got the 12 oz filet and I chose the branzino. Only comment is that the sauce on the fish was bland. It needed more taste.

Pool scene is lively, which was fine for us, maybe not for everyone. Service was friendly and professional. Food was nicely presented, fresh and flavorful. A great place to catch up with old friends… an oasis on Hollywood Blvd.
