It was my husband’s birthday and his favorite museum! Food was excellent for lunch though service is slow due to limited servers? Nevertheless, we enjoyed the ambiance and delicious food and great weather on a summer’s day.

When we visit the Getty Center, we always dine here, becuase it is a secret gem. The food is always excellent - inventive as well as delicious - adn the service is always impeccable. The menu is large enough without being overwhelming, the prices are moderate, the view is outstanding, and you can order champagne by the glass - what's not to love. In short, it is a more elevated experience than one usually expects from a museum restaurant. So don't second guess it - just make the reservation. So that it's obvious this is a reivew from real poeple and not a bot, I will add that we are always casually dressed when we cloe here, and my partner is covered in tattoos, and we are always treated with the utmost respect regardless of our laid back appearance.

The view was spectacular and the food was very good. The service was beyond terrible! We were celebrating our anniversary with our children and our server Arwen ruined the entire experience. She took our order, after hunting her down and brought the check, after hunting her down. Never checked on us, never refilled our drinks, never came for dessert order.
