    The Place- Modern and open…read more The Service- Could not have been any better. Very friendly and attentive. The Food- Today's Pizza- Amazing!!! I would never had thought of that combination of ingredients but it was fantastic! Grilled Asian Beef Short Ribs- Very good and highly recommended.

    I was so excited to try Farmhouse. I love Descanso Gardens, so visiting their new restaurant felt…read morelike a special treat. My mother‑in‑law and our family friends had been before and spoke very highly of it. We originally booked a reservation for three people for Mother's Day, and when our friends became available, the restaurant was kind enough to expand it to six. They offered us a lounge area since they were fully booked, and we appreciated the effort to accommodate us on such a busy holiday. Parking was crowded because of the occasion, so we arrived a little late. Once we checked in, the staff seated us in the lounge setup, which had five couch‑style seats and one regular chair that did not quite match the arrangement. We asked if any other tables were available because the terrace looked fairly open, but we were told the lounge was the only option unless we preferred to sit indoors. We chose to stay outside, and although it felt a little unusual to see open terrace tables throughout our visit, we still enjoyed the atmosphere. Service was friendly and attentive. There were a couple of small hiccups, such as our seasonal pizza being forgotten during a server switch and our fries being left off the order. Everything else arrived smoothly, and the Descanso Member drink was a highlight. It was refreshing, flavorful, and a great value. Overall, we enjoyed our visit, especially the beautiful setting. I look forward to coming back another time to sit at their large bar for a cocktail and an appetizer.

    I had the delicious Wagyu Truffle burger and decided to add bacon and chipotle aioli because why…read morenot, and it was incredible. The burger came loaded with a juicy grilled jalapeño, tomato, mushrooms, grilled pineapple, red onions etc, on a soft brioche bun. Everything worked together really well and the flavors were rich without being overwhelming. My buddy had the Baja Fish tacos and said they were delicious. My wife ordered the Corner Breakfast special with eggs, bacon, and French toast, and she really enjoyed it. My friend's wife got the Frittata served in a cast iron pan, and that also looked and tasted great from what I could tell. Portions were solid across the table, and everyone left satisfied. Prices felt fair for the quality of food you're getting.

I was really delighted by the attentiveness of the staff. Each team member worked well with the others and I felt our care was seamless and prompt. We learned that the restaurant had a refresh a few years ago and I found the tables and chairs, the patio, and the cleanliness all contributed to a great atmosphere. Found out that it turns into a hookah lounge in the evenings (weekends?) - which isn't my vibe, but they serve brunch until 3pm, which definitely IS my vibe. I'll be back!

    I finally got to try the Great White Hut. I mean I came upon it by accident. I didn't realize it…read morewould be so tiny! I don't know what I was expecting but it is amazing that they can serve up such food in a small place. I've seen videos and these guys get a lot of credit for working in a such a small place. The day I went my wife said "99 cent tacos on Tuesday". I said, too bad it's not Tuesday. She is IT IS! HAHA ok, well, now I know what I want. I went to the window and asked if it was true, 99 cent tacos, she said yes! Well $3 later, I had my two tacos. Was it any good? Well, yeah! It was! Look, it wasn't the best tacos in the world or the best I have tried but it was really good and if I had the time, I'd get a beer and sit down and eat these good tacos and then they might be some of the best! Unfortunately I had to do other things so I just enjoyed these two tacos and I got the spicy versions and let me tell you, the kick from the spice was awesome!!!! I love the little Great White Hut!

    I wanted to hate this place. Instead I think the food is reasonable for the price. I've had burgers…read moretwice the price that weren't half as good. The good: Although small, the way this burger is constructed makes sense. Good, fresh ingredients with a nice crunch and somewhat decent hamburger patty. The price is right. $6 for a single. A square deal in today's insane landscape. The bad: the bun sucks. Like most burgers out there, the bun lacks in freshness and ingredients. Bake your own buns. Also, the sauce can be annoying. Yet, the pickles are thick and good. I would come again if in the area.

    We came for an early Valentines because we had childcare the week before. We didn't make a…read morereservation and didn't realize the wait would be that long. Good thing we could be seated immediately at the bar area, which also has tables and chairs and has the full menu and full service. The inside decor is tiki themed which is fun. Although they were busy and the bar was packed, our server was very attentive and friendly. I'm glad we stayed to eat at the bar because food and drinks were delicious and service was great. Food: - Side: famous garlic bread - it was a lot bigger than we expected! It's a full thick loaf and could have been shared with 4-5 people. The topping is unique and tasty. - Appetizer (dinner special): mussels in garlic wine sauce. The sauce was so delicious that we dipped our garlic bread in it. Definitely recommend. It was a great starter that didn't make us overly full. - Entree (dinner special): I had the sea bass with a mushroom cream sauce. This was the only dish that wasn't that great. The fish was dry and hard and the sauce was okay. I chose the side of snap peas and that was delicious! - Entree: my husband had the 16 oz ribeye steak. It was delicious and cooked perfectly. He chose spinach as a side and it was so good. Drinks: - Macademia nut chi chi - so delicious! The macademia nut liqueur was tasty and fragrant. Loved this tropical drink and would get it again for sure. - my husband got a Diet Coke and it was watery the first time. I think their soda machine wasn't working well. Our server brought us another one, which was better but still slightly off.

The ambiance is great--I have no complaints about that--but the most important part is the food. The steak and salmon were overcooked, so we did not enjoy them. We also ordered edamame, and they served us pale green beans. We tasted them just to make sure it wasn't only the appearance, but they were sour. Why would they even attempt to serve this? The servers were attentive, so no issues there. However, I'm not sure if I would come back. Prices have gone up, but the food quality has gone down.
