    The food was really good and well prepared. Service was a bit slow and could be more attentive. Hope to see improvements next time!

    Located on the 34th floor of the AC Hotel, the views are absolutely prime! At night, you can see all angles of LA from this restaurant, lounge and bar. The vibe is romantic- a little dark and moody so that the lights of the skyline pop! The menu isn't huge but there is a good variety of options. My colleague and I split a cobb salad and added salmon. The salad was filled with many tasty goodies inside and the salmon was cooked crisp on the outside but very tender on the inside. We also shared a delicious carrot cake. For drinks, we both got something off of their signature cocktail menu and really enjoyed our drinks. The people next to us got a smoked Manhattan that would've been our next drink if we were ordering more. I guess it should be expected of LA, but the prices are crazy steep. For two drinks, 1 salad and a desert, we paid $120. It was wild considering we didn't even get our own meals, but maybe that's to be expected given the view and vibes.

    Steak and potatoes

    Gorgeous restaurant! Food was amazing! Brendan our waiter was super nice as well! Also it was my birthday and they gave me a way yummy yellow cake with vanilla bean ice cream Also the burger is amaazzzingggg, one of the best burgers I've had in a long time The steak and potatoes were amazing 10/10 on the food!! The reasons why I'm knocking off a start though was because there's a seat yourself sign walking up but we had reservations and Brendan was the only worker we saw but he was busy so we were standing around awkwardly and had to find him in the back of the restaurant which was a little weird Also the peroni draft was incredibly flat, almost tasted like when you leave an open beer sitting out for a day But they replaced it no problem so not that big a deal! Wish I could give this place 4.5 stars!

    If you are looking for delicious food and a great view, look no further than the newly opened AC Bar and Lounge in the AC Marriott hotel downtown LA. Frankly, my expectations were low - its a bar/restaurant in a hotel. How good could the food be? Wow, I was wrong. Amazing. For dinner, we split the farro risotto and creamy potatoes and both were just to die for. We tried the cookies for desert - salted Carmel and three types of macaroons. They were good (we are kind of macaroon snobs so they were not fantastic, but solid). Normally I'm great with photos but we were starving and once we dug in, all bets were off for good photography! Jared, our server was fantastic - great recommendations and attentive without being overbearing. We popped down for breakfast in the morning. There is a buffet and they also have 2 chef dishes that are included. This morning was a Belgian waffle with fruit and a toast with mango cheese and scrambled egg with arugula. Both - amazing. We are leaving super early in the morning yet confirmed we will be able to grab breakfast before we go!

    It was a quick girl's night out, a last-minute decision, and we were not disappointed. The vibe and view were spot on, service was good just not spectacular. It was after 10 pm, so I definitely will show grace to that. We each ordered an entree with a grilled cheese to share. Honestly, the grilled cheese was the star of the show. It was toasted to perfection and paired with a blueberry compote that was just fabulous! We would go back!

    Worst place. Had to ask for plates, napkins & ..... utensils. Don't mind paying the price but the service is horrendous. Manager came by but only because we asked. He was great....

    Breakfast buffet

    We checked-in in their hotel which is a beautiful hotel, nice view city of LA, very luxurious type of hotel and good service. They don't have any bathrobe if you ask for it. Their restaurants in the sky lounge is great with a nice view. We ordered flat iron steak which takes time to be served. We waited like around good 25-30mins for the steak. The steak is not so good. Very dry, cold and the quality is not great for the price. We asked for the new one since we told the server the steak was cold and dry, he apologized and gave us a new one which I appreciate. Love the view of the hotel and the restaurant. The breakfast buffet is a little too pricey for me and there are no much variety of choices to choose from. There is only egg and bread available and not much with meat. Maybe will try the hotel again but definitely not their food. Overall our stay is still good.

    Food was great. Lighting was very dim. Made it hard to see menu at times. Service is average for a large chain hotel.

    Nice brunch. Good staff. Overpriced but if you have to spend the hotel meal bucks somewhere, this is not a bad way to do it.

The entire bar is dark, mysterious with twinkle lights overhead. Like Las Vegas, once inside, it's hard to know if it's day or night outside. Only exception is in their outdoor patio mirrored on the sides like the hall at Versailles and sunlight coming in from above where smoking is allowed. We came early before 8pm during Happy Hour when non-members can enter with a person with a membership which allows 3 additional guests, and all guests are free to enter without a membership until 8pm. [$30 initial membership fee for a year and $20 annual renewal.] Caña (kahn yah) means cane in Spanish referring to sugar cane from which rum is made. Our bartender was helpful and personable welcoming us and taking our orders. Under advice from Caña member Elite Yelper, Isobel L., who graciously took us under her wing, we ordered a shot of Nicaraguan Flor de Caña Rum aged 12 years that came with a cigarillo. We adjourned from the bar to the patio to smoke our mini-stogies and sipped our rum. We came early when there were very few members so it was the perfect place to talk and mellow out. Those who want a more animated crowd probably should come much later when lively dance music begins, and booties start to swing. Caña Rum Bar: 4 stars

All of the staff were very friendly and happy. There were many security guards posted and keeping a watchful eye, which made us feel more secure! And the bartender made us delicious drinks!

That's what my party had to pay atleast. The lounge area is pretty nice, two bar locations with one being at the front entrance and one towards the back (easier to go through the bathroom hallway to get there). I enjoyed the music, some weren't my favorite but a good time nonetheless. Got an AMF drink for $22. Owner made sure that one of our friends chain wasn't snatched and that it dropped when we lost the pendant and even offered his personal cell to contact him. Camera's everywhere and cleaning crew full sweep. Honestly, really down to earth based off our one and only interaction that night.
