Espelette was amazing for our first breakfast in California! Accommodating is an understatement, they treated our 6 month old like an honored guest! Their highchair was super clean and nice, the valet helped us get our stroller set up, and the hostess stored it away while we ate. The food was very good, and the restaurant is beautiful inside

We love the restaurant! The staff is outstanding and the food wonderful. Jaime, our server, is so friendly and really great. Oxana, the hostess, is also always so warm and welcoming. We had the Arabic breakfast and it was outstanding! Looking forward to our return!

Our usual spot for breakfast when we stay at Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills. Our 2nd day in a row this time. We love the veteran crew of Jaime, Victor, Alfonso, Elvis, Fermin and other bus people staff. They all are friendly, professional and work so well as a team. We always look forward to seeing them and catching up with them. The American Breakfast combo is great: we love the heirloom tomato/cucumber salad and the fingerling potatoes that come with it. Great La Colombe coffee and Earl Grey Lavender tea. Fresh-squeezed orange juice. Good sourdough and rye toast, ham and bacon. All praise and no complaints. Yesterday there were two separate guests who were clueless and oblivious, talking on phone and Zoom on laptop, unbothered by the fact that they were in a public room with other guests. Guess it's an LA narcissistic thing? Today it was very quiet, as we sat inside and most people sat outside.

Everything was great. The food was really delicious. The only thing was that the lighting was a bit dim, so the kids had a hard time coloring the kids' menu :)

The ambiance is nice, the food is ok, but the service was horrendous. Not even close to what would be expected in a Waldorf Astoria. Don’t bother or waste your money.
