Tareq B.

This place is beautiful but due to it's popularity I found the service to be slow. There is an hour wait time for party of 4. The then takes another hour. Once you get your food, getting a hold of your server is a bit challenging. The intercontinental breakfast is massive a designed to be shared. The Benedict sauce is reddish brown and has an all spice taste that I wasn't a fan of , and the bread is brioche. The views are beautiful.

Inside
Clarissa A.

I recently stayed at the Intercontinental and had the chance to dine at La Boucherie twice for breakfast and both times were five star experiences! Note I did make reservations both times on open table so I was seated pretty quickly once I checked in, so between that and also staying at the hotel I'm not sure if that helps but all in all amazing experience! My stay included breakfast which let me get an item, juice and coffee. I ordered the three item omelette both times and both times were spot on. Definitely add the fresh herbs to whatever you get... they add such rich depth and help to bring out the layers of taste in the other ingredients. Now. Let's take a moment for the pastries. The intercontinental is known for them. I have been to many globally and hands down, I always try their croissants. No matter where I am. Because they are always stellar. And this place, no exception. Had the butter croissant the first day - so buttery and good, just the right amount of flakiness, and served with creamy butter (not needed but I can't resist butter!). But also... the pain au chocolat!?! Be still my heart. Just divine. Now I know the French are the best at this but... these may be some of my favorites. My absolute compliments to the geniuses who are the pastry masters here because it is worth the $10. The dining room is on the 71st floor with spectacular views of the Los Angeles skyline, you're riding higher than most of the buildings in DTLA and definitely higher than many of the birds in the area! Beautiful decor and lighting on a brunch and sunny day. And shout out to Jasmine - amazing amazing service! Took great care of us. She was an absolute delight and on the second day even remembered us and took note of what we might want. Now that is service with class!

The views are absolutely stunning and gorgeous! People aren't leading you astray when they say it's lovely! Open space with great lighting especially in the morning time, feels very airy. Got the omelet plate which came with three toppings of my choice. It also came with roasted potatoes and some fruit (blueberries and blackberries). Delicious breakfast! I also got coffee which gave me the perfect caffeine buzz and the server refilled my coffee. My friend and I shared a butter croissant and it came out warm and perfectly flaky! The service was also incredible and our server was friendly and attentive which we appreciated! They do offer valet parking which they validate for two hours for a set amount then additional time adds a fee.

Omelet plate
Brian C.

The view of course is #1. Service was also great. While my companions ordered the Eggs Benedict, I enjoyed the omelet plate with shrimp. Elegant presentation and was filling. There are meal comps with hotel stay, but anyone is welcome to come to the restaurant.

Finally dine at La Boucherie, it did not disappoint. First thing in the view. Floor-to-ceiling windows the DTLA city skyline and the slow crawl of cars on the i10 like liquid gold. Our table at sunset felt like front-row seats to a private show. Service was excellent as well. Water glasses never dipped below half-full. Courses arrived with calm, precise explanations. We ordered the Tomahawk steak, Octopus, Scallop paste, and a chicken dish. Everything tastes better than expected. Often time these restaurants with views the foods not up to par, but not La Boucherie. The only reason for not 5 stars is the price is in the higher side.

we had Valentine's Day dinner at La boucherie We asked our waiter for his recommendations, and he suggested the seared scallops pasta, octopus, hamachi, and onion soup. We found the majority of the dishes to be amazingly good, and we were truly surprised by how great the food was. While the onion soup was just okay, the rest of the meal and the excellent service more than made up for it. We had a wonderful experience and will definitely be coming back.

My review is based on the breakfast menu, not dinner. Breakfast was okay--nothing too impressive--but we mainly wanted to try this place because of the views, which honestly are worth it. My original plan was to have dinner to celebrate my anniversary, but just so you know, there is no dinner service on Sundays and Mondays, only breakfast. The service was good and fast, and they surprised us with a very nice gesture for our anniversary, which we really appreciated. That's the reason for the 4 stars. I'll definitely be back to try dinner since I've seen great recommendations for it--hopefully that will earn the 5 stars.

Crab cake, small portion for $50. ...9/10
Sabrina W.

This place is labeled as a Steak House but the steak not so good for my $112 ribeye. I would think if a restaurant label themselves as a steak house that their steak would be top notch for an an expensive establishment But NO ...the Steak was undercooked from my order with my request on how I wanted it. Had to send it back to heat it up some more. Came out later and now it's dry. Very disappointing for a $112 steak . Had way better same steak at other restaurants in LA for half the price But! I would say their other food items on the menu taste much better than their "specialty" steak. If it wasn't for the view and the other 5 plates I'd order tonight that made it up for the bad steak I would give this place a 2 star. Tonight's cost for 2 people was $520 (food, tax, tips) . Pretty pricey here FYI.

Horrible management
Tammy H.

If I could give this place 0 stars, I would. Absolutely one of the worst experiences I've had at a restaurant. The manager was beyond rude completely unprofessional, dismissive, and acted like helping customers was an inconvenience. It honestly felt like we were bothering them just by being there. The server was even worse. The attitude was unreal rushed, irritated, and clearly annoyed because they were close to closing. Eye-rolling, short responses, and just overall terrible energy. If you don't want to serve people, don't work in hospitality. I get that places close, but treating customers like garbage because of it is unacceptable. There's no excuse for that level of disrespect. Save your money and go somewhere that actually values its customers, because this place clearly doesn't.

Filet Mignon (medium rare)
Yikai L.

Had breakfast here the next morning, liked the food better. Recommend the Benedict with avocado and arugula Breakfast gets super busy and theres a long wait so come early. Again, 18% gratuity included

Wendy S.

Came in for a girls' dinner and I'm so happy we chose this spot. The skyline view was absolutely stunning, and the food was just as impressive. The ambiance was moody, elegant, and perfect for a night out, and the service was truly top tier. Everything from start to finish was a great experience -- we'll definitely be coming back!

A5 Wagyu New York
Wally P.

Probably the most elegant spot in DTLA. Pristine dining room with spectacular views. Impeccable service. The seafood platter has everything you would ever want. The bread! I meal on its own. Unbelievable. I had the 5A Wagyu NY. Not really my thing. It's like eating a big piece of gristle. I should have gone with the filet. But worth the money. Yes, every penny. So many pennies that will break your bank account balance.

Filet Mignon
Mary M.

Let me start with what's good! Steak! And I also heard from a person sitting next to me that the lamb was the best he ever ate in his life (and he did look old so long life :)). The views around. What was truly disappointing: I was dining by myself and it didn't help to cheer up that I was seated at the worst table - by the butcher freezers on one side and with a big column hiding any sight of the city view. Ughhh... They brought the food menu first and 10 minutes later drink/wine menu. How convenient. I ordered filet mignon and roasted garlic broccolini. It took at least one hour before I got my food. Steak was delish, 10/10 no complaints. But the side pepper and broccolini were cold. It didn't fit well. I was so tired and upset I just ate it without making a comment. The waiter also asked how the food was before I even had a bite of it (I didn't know the sides were cold at that time and he never came back to follow up, until the check was brought). The menu listed that there was gratuity 18% included for groups of 5+. I was a group of 1. I had 18% gratuity included. I regret of not bringing this up, but I was honestly shocked and tired and just wanted to leave asap. I'm sad that I was really looking forward to go back to La Boucherie in the morning for a nice breakfast before the conference. Instead, I wanted to stay as far as possible and not spend a penny at this place. This was the first time I stayed at the hotel in down town LA and I feel traumatized, honestly. May be I am dramatic but the depressing seating place, long wait, and cold food? For almost $200 bill? Not acceptable, comparatively.

Is there valet parking? Or what parking is close by?

Yes, there is both valet and self parking for about $17, for two hours, when validated! It gets substantially more expensive after that.

Does the restaurant require a vaccination card to dine?

Is there a tasting menu?

Do not remember seeing this.

What is the difference between main dining seating and standard seating?

The main dining is standard with a table, but there's also the bar or the private suites and chef's table.

Are they open or still temporarily closed?

They are reopening on January 14, 2022! 😬

I have a reservation. Is dress code enforced? And are sneakers ok if you dress them up casually?

It is a French steakhouse with an awesome view. One does not have to wear a tux or formal gown but definitely no tennis shoes !!!! Just my opinion 😊

Do you offer prefix course menu for the dinner?

Can I bring my baby which is 7 and half months now to the restaurant? Or is there a restriction? I have an invitation must go but cant leave baby at home or to anyone, so…

Ummmm.... This isn't the kind of restaurant you take kids to. I didn't see any children there. I didn't see anyone under the age of 18 there. I saw men wearing coats & women dressed up. This restaurant has a relaxing atmosphere with a gorgeous view.… Read more

Is there an age requirement?

I don't believe there's an age requirement but it's more of an adult environment for the restaurant.

Is there live music for slow dancing?

Unfortunately, there is no music to dance to. They do have music on the background just to sooth the moment.

What is the corkage fee?

You'll be fine with out a jacket !

Can you just go for drinks?

Yes, there is a bar with a large selection of top shelf spirits.

Do they offer any vegetarian options?

Yes

What's the difference between bar seating and standard seating? It asks me to choose while making a reservation. I want a window table so which do I request?

The bar is in the center section, if you want a window seat it would be a standard table. If you specifically want a window spot you should probably call in and request it directly.

Should u be 21+?

You do not have to be 21+ to dine here. Upscale adult vibes.

Open table says "jacket preferred" on the dress. Really?

Forget what the maitre d' thinks. Ask your girlfriend or wife if she'd prefer you put on a jacket and tuck your shirt in. I bet she takes the time to look great before she goes out; why don't YOU be the eye candy for a change? You might like it.… Read more

Hey, are you even 21??…read more I'm gonna need to see some ID before I can let you enter... (Moments later) You can't possibly be 21, you were born in 2005... (Counting backwards on my fingers) Oh. My. God, I'm getting old!!!! ---------------------------- Alright now that we got that out of the way.... Listen up, & Listen up Good. Cause Tonight, Tonight, I'm setting the Bar straight! Now,.... Make sure to hang onto your ID, stay plenty hydrated & be ready to pace yourself... Cause we are about to Hit the bar running and go full throttle with some virtual bar hopping. But first, let's see just how many styles of bars there really are. -Ahh the classic, no-frills Dive Bar -The Cocktail Bar/The Martini Bar -The Sports bar, The BeerGarden -The Pub, The Tavern, The Biker Bar (make sure you wear your best leather pants) -The Hotel Bar, The Rooftop Bar, The Lounge -The Night Club, The Comedy Club, The Karaoke Bar -The Tiki Bar, The Wine Bar -The hidden Speakeasy (my personal Fav.) And of course, where even at 8am there's no judgement passed... -The Airport Bar. Speaking of Traveling... Bonus: Consider yourself lucky if your hotel room just happens to have a well-stocked mini bar. (These are getting fewer and fewer as I travel) Yeah, each bar listed above has its own vibe, and depending on your mood, your own individual style or even what kind of night out on the town you are looking to have... The type of bar you choose is important. But sometimes, the Bar Chooses You! Bar Magnolia quietly enters the chat. It was October 11th, 2025 and my wife & I just checked into Hotel Figueroa in DTLA. (EPIC REVIEW Coming Soon!!!) While we were waiting for our room to be ready, we decided to check out the Hotel Bar Lounge... First thought, Color me Impressed! High ceilings, Natural lighting, classy decor, comfy couches... Yeah, take your time with that room, we'll wait! So we plopped down onto their sofa, waited for a cocktail menu, and let the "we left the kids at home with Grandma; let's enjoy being kid-free for the night begin". $18.00 cocktails....Lets Goooo!! Looking back at the Photos, I can't exactly recall what we ordered... Was it a whiskey sour? Was it a paper plane?? Honestly, Who cares! They tasted great. I was sitting across from a beautiful woman. And we were responsibly adulting. What more could a guy ask for?? I'm glad you asked! After a long car ride in, sipping on water, then the first few sips of my cocktail, I suddenly had to go... Luckily, the restrooms are located just adjacent to the bar area and DAMN are they clean!! Hey, if a bar restroom is well taken care of, you know the place has Class.... And Bar Magnolia has the Class to Match! Of course, there is bar stool seating at the bar... (I usually prefer sitting at the bar as there's always some great stories to be heard and when it time to order another round, you can literally just cut out the... Middle Man (Aka waiting for your server to come check back in) In addition to the bar top stools, there are also low top tables, and a few couch-chairs with a low top table for more intimate conversations. Besides those $18 craft cocktails, a short, well Curated list of bubbles, vino and draft beers are all up for grabs. Unfortunately, we had stopped to eat before we arrived (bad move on our part), but next time, and THERE WILL BE A NEXT TIME, we will definitely partake in their food menu (cause damn, did it look GOOD!) So whether you are a guest of Hotel Figueroa, you are leaving the Crypto Arena after a concert and want to paint the town red, or you are simply just wanting to sit, relax and enjoy a nice cocktail at a classy, upscale, but not so pretentious Cocktail Lounge... Bar Magnolia is your place! Well, it's almost closing time, they are about to call for Last Call, so order us another round, bottoms up and Cheers to us!!!

Came to Bar Magnolia on a Friday evening specifically for happy hour, which their website clearly…read moreadvertises as Monday-Friday. Once there, I was told happy hour is only Monday through Thursday. I pulled up their own website and showed it to the server. The response? A shrug. No apology, no explanation, no effort to make it right. This is straight-up false advertising, and the lack of accountability made it worse. If you're going to change your happy hour, update your website and train your staff to handle it professionally. I shouldn't have to argue with a bar over their own posted information. Won't be back.

We came for the Korea vs. Mexico watch party and, yes, the wait was long. Our group waited close to…read moretwo hours before getting in but we also planned in advance to get there early and wait so that we would be able to get it. Could communication have been better? Absolutely. I think more frequent updates about wait times and capacity would have helped manage expectations. That said, once we got inside, we honestly had a great time. The atmosphere was fun, the energy was amazing, and it was clear that the staff was working incredibly hard. They were dealing with a crowd that seemed much larger than anyone anticipated, and despite being understaffed, everyone we interacted with remained professional and friendly. I also think it's important to be realistic about the situation. There were people lined up far down the street, and just looking at the size of the restaurant, it was obvious that there was no way everyone would be able to get in. It was an extremely popular event, and the demand simply exceeded the venue's capacity. I completely understand why some people left feeling frustrated, especially if they waited and didn't get in. At the same time, I don't think the staff deserved the level of criticism they've been receiving. From what I saw, they were doing their best in a difficult situation and trying to accommodate as many people as possible. For our group, the wait ended up being worth it. We had a great time cheering on Korea, enjoyed the food and drinks, and made some fun memories with friends. No event is perfect, especially with a huge crowd. We had a good time and will be back

I arrived at 3:30 p.m. for a 6:00 p.m. World Cup match after being told by the establishment a week…read moreearlier that seating was first-come, first-served and that arriving before 4:00 p.m. would not be a problem. When I arrived, there were only about 15-20 people ahead of me in line. As the afternoon progressed, the line stretched down the street, yet no staff member came outside to communicate capacity limits, seating availability, or where the line should reasonably end. Even more concerning, patrons were not admitted until after the match had already started. The situation quickly became chaotic. People who had waited for hours were understandably frustrated, and many were openly voicing their concerns. Groups were admitted one at a time, creating further delays. When it was finally my turn to enter, I was informed that all tables had been taken and that only standing room remained. I was allowed to look inside before deciding whether to stay. What I observed was particularly disappointing: many individuals who had not been ahead of me in line were already seated at tables. I have no idea how they got in but I suspect they were allowed in through some other entrance. After waiting more than two hours based on the information provided by the establishment, this felt unfair and misleading. Most disappointing was having invited friends to join me for the match, only to have the experience ruined by what appeared to be poor planning and inadequate crowd management. The demand for a major World Cup match should not have come as a surprise. If the venue anticipated significant attendance, additional seating, staffing, and clear communication should have been put in place. This was one of the most poorly managed event experiences I have encountered. At a minimum, I believe the ownership should publicly acknowledge what occurred and apologize to the many customers who invested hours of their time only to be left without the accommodations they were promised. Unfortunately, I will not be returning.

First there was only one bartender serving guests and the line got long. Surely not enough support for an evening. Second, drinks are overpriced and not good. $18 for basic drinks like a tequila soda and margarita. I would pay that for a nicely crafted cocktail but that's not what you're going to get here. Spicy marg and mezcal cocktail were not enjoyable at all in my opinion. They have a decent selection of canned drinks. Didn't try them but probably better off just getting one of those. I might come back depending on the party. Big might.
