The view and live music was perfect. Our waiter didn’t go over any dishes or recommendations. Service was average, our food was good, it didn’t make me think this is must do on future trips, we dined on oysters, fettuccine, veal cheek and coconut sorbet. Disappointing part of the evening was am 11 year old boy who couldn’t sit in his seat. Frequently made his way to our space with his dancing, thinking he was being cute. He wasn’t. In fact another table moved their seating arrangement so their back would not face the boy and his antics.

Sunset Mona Lisa never disappoints! My wife and I go every year either with friends or just as a couple. The ambience and service is exceptional and the food is very good as well. Although it is very pricey (particularly for the best seating), it’s an experience that is worth the cost. I would highly recommend this restaurant for a special occasion, such as an anniversary or birthday dinner and be certain to book a reservation for a time that ensures you see the sunset!

Sunset MonaLisa was very overpriced and the food was underwhelming. Just know that you are paying for the view.
