Reviews
Chef Richard is amazing his menu is always changing. The fig salad was so delicious. The short rib appetizers and the bread were so good. Seard Ahi tuna is so fresh and spicy it kicks off the night. Chris, our server, was the joy of the night. His attention to detail and his conversation made our dining experience more than just a dinner at some restaurant. If you come on a night that they have the chocolate bread pudding, it is a must-have.
nice place. fusion menu that changes frequently. excellent seafood prepared in interesting ways. this is not a grilled hunk of meat with veg and starch kind of place.
Pearl District is a bright shining star in Westlake Village. EVERYTHING about this restaurant is perfection. The person greeting you at the door, your server and supporting staff, the bartender, the kitchen staff—all of it is off the charts. Delicious. Beautiful. A meal here is a remarkable experience. Thank you!!
A great option for solid sushi and burgers. I don't ever mix and get both but both are decent options.
I would recommend everyone try at least once and you will find at least one thing on the menu that you will like.

We were having a small birthday celebration and needed to find a brunch spot in a pinch. Victoria’s was more than happy to have us and more than accommodating. They created a specialized mimosa flight for my newly 21 year old, allowed me to decorate the table and booth, offered to refrigerate and cut our cake, and took photos of the group. Our waitress was a pleasure and the food was amazing! We all agreed to make Victoria’s our yearly birthday tradition!
This was an awesome place! Amazing food, and great music. Get the muse cocktail if you like gin and get the chicken sandwich. Their poboy is delicious but the chicken is to die for. Staff is friendly and attentive.
This was our first visit, and we loved it. We shared the braised short ribs, salt and pepper shrimp, and beet salad. Everything was delicious, but the shrimp was my favorite. I ordered the grilled Scottish salmon for dinner, but i asked for branzino instead of salmon, and it was amazing. My husband had the pork chops, and he loved them. We'll definitely be back soon.
Met up here for Happy Hour, never heard of this place, it was the pick of a colleague but it was a good choice. All of the food was fresh, seasoned well and the drinks just right. Our waiter Ibrahim (I’m sure it’s spelled wrong) but he was patient with us and great, very personable. The restaurant wasn’t crowded on a Wednesday night so the noise level was appropriate, some folks at the bar. The decor was typical, we had a great time catching up at dinner.
We were in the area for a concert staying next door. This place being close was a major benefit. The bar itself is pretty awesome. They have lots of whisky/bourbon to choose from. The smash burger was really good as were the meatballs. We would definitely return. The service was absolutely top notch.
I did take out recently. My order was ready in like 15 minutes which is very quick. I got several tuna sushi rolls they made accommodations for a gluten allergy. The rules were safe and delicious however we were all the way home before we realized if they had packed tamari instead of soy sauce and our takeout order would have been perfect
Why had we not come here before?!
We loved our server, Matthew, who was super friendly and gave us the best recommendations. Everything came out quickly and was DELICIOUS.
The best part was seeing the creativity of each dish resulting in incredible flavor combinations. The All American burgushi was mouthwatering and the dichotomy of flavors in the Specialty Bento Box was especially AMAZING (good portion sizes too)!
You can’t go wrong with this place. It really has something to please everyone.
We’ll be back!

Pearl District was incredible, the food and wait staff were fabulous. Oscar took care of us personally, what a treat! The food absolutely delicious from the appetizers to the special scallops, we couldn’t have asked for a better meal!
Great asian fusion restaurant. We say Betty Shirley with her band. The food, live music and atmosphere were a perfect way for us to end our night out.
It's a really chill spot. My wife and I decided to go over on a Friday night. You can tell they have a bunch of regulars, but the atmosphere was cool.
I ordered the Creole salmon and grits. What I enjoyed other than the taste was the portion size: Not too much, not too little. We shared fried mozzarella as an appetizer. Everything was warm, and everything was neat.
No wait time for a table on a Friday was a win in itself. I am definitely planning to return sooner rather than later. I highly recommend adding this place to your date night rotation.

Really nice staff, great food and not horribly expensive. There doesn't seem to be anything to drink other than water, wine or beer. The music is a bit loud for easy conversation and it gets pretty loud inside as there are no sound dampening features to reduce the noise, but an overall great meal and good experience.
It's been probably over a decade since I've last been here, just because it's pretty far from my house, but Victoria still seems the same.
This is a good and bad thing. The restaurant is looking a bit run down and needs some refurbishment. Paint stripped away in several spots and rips in booth cushions. But the food is still great, service is great, and beer selection, while significantly smaller than a decade ago, is still decently large. I actually feel bad for the restaurant because I was there on a Sunday and fully expected it to be busy, but there was almost no one there. A decade ago, it would have been hard to get a reservation. It can still be a fine dining location, but definitely has more of a nice euro pub feel now.
The duck fat fries are still killer here, and a main reason to come. Other than that, come here to try out beers that you might not find anywhere else. Pricing is still pretty reasonable for the most part.

My family originally went to Cowfish after our reservations at another restaurant hadn’t been honored. It was a compromise - and I didn’t expect to like it. The burgers, sushi, and drinks here are absolutely delicious. I’ve taken multiple trips here with different people over the last six months, and everyone has really liked it! My food has always been prepared correctly, and I’ve spoken to the (very pleasant & involved) owner on multiple occasions. One of the happiest accidents I’ve had restaurant-wise!
Outstanding service and great food. Very reasonable for such a high quality restaurant
Only comment was grouper was a bit dry other than that our server KC was spot on! Our group also had an opportunity to meet the chef who is very talented and modest. We will definitely go back.

Home to the smallest $15/$16 COCKtails in NOLA. Kayla is awesome. Just drinks at teeny tiny. "Galiano? Ain't that a fancy type of liquor?" Hhm mm! Nanci Zee & Josh Paxton are wonderful!
Great food and drinks! Fun atmosphere, great service. I am in town for business and came with my team. I had two different ciders and an amazing buffalo chicken sandwich. I loved the seasoned fries. I will have to come again next time I am in town.
This place never disappoints. My boyfriend, and I love it here. The spicy poké dip (more of a tower) was very tasty, and we each found our new favorite burgers: Yo Adrian and The Boursin Bacon Burger. Also, they are very mindful of any allergies which is much appreciated.
Was shopping close to renaissance hotel and found this bar/ restaurant.. stopped in for a quick sip and snack ..
the bartender Lois was just amazing ! Very helpful and her service was exceptional .. smiling all the way and suggesting good stuff.
They just had few beers on tap . I liked the home brewed wheat beer. Light and tasted good . Wish they had few other brands on tap. IPA on tap was also average. They did have bottles and other options .. lots of tables to sit and drink. Parking is a problem here z tough to get one closer to the hotel . Overall a good experience , just because of Lois .. 🙏👍👍👍👍

Really enjoyed The Cowgish Sushi Burger Bar in Charlotte, North Carolina. I thought it was a very interesting concept. The space was super cool, airy and modern! Service was great. Our server Carlos was very engaging and knowledgeable of the menu. We had the spicy shrimp to start. They were very crispy and not soggy. I love the sauce that came with it. I had the bento box with the Miss Moffett’s roll and the Texas crunch burger. It was absolutely delicious. The sushi was very fresh and tasty and the burger was cooked perfectly. I love the combination of ingredients on it. I love that you get a whole bunch of different things on the side including sweet potato fries and edamame!! They had a very good wine/beer list and drink menu as well. I’ll definitely go back and try something else.
My daughter refuses to go to Charlotte and not eat at Cowfish. She knows we will let her have a milkshake (always the Cookies and Cream!). The kids meals are decent, but we usually end up splitting our entrees with my daughter. Not a raw sushi fan, but the Spicy Crunchy Roll was great! Their turkey burgers and chicken are great - I don’t eat red meat so I can’t speak to the burger personally (but I love that there are so many options for protein). I like their regular fries over the sweet potato fries (they aren’t bad, just prefer the regular fries!) And of course the milkshakes - the Grasshopper is sooo good. My husband nicely let me steal a taste of the Blackout Shake and if you like chocolate - get this one! Our servers have all been fantastic as well, never had a bad meal or experience.
Three muses – it’s another one of the fantastic Frenchman Street clubs. This is a smaller venue, but the bartenders are excellent. Air-conditioned, intimate setting. You won’t want to miss this one. Check local listings for what bands are playing, and you can catch a good one for a date night or a fun afternoon.
Was in town for a conference and went here for a late dinner and to listen to some live jazz on a recommendation of someone in our group. Was not disappointed. We got fries and wings and cauliflower bites for appetizers. I got a pork debris po’boy. It was all very good. Great service. And fun music. Definitely recommend.
Love this place, and I hate to see them go.
Wonderful friendly staff!
Wonderful friendly staff!
The atmosphere is very unique and entertaining. I loved looking at all the funny artwork they had on the walls. Our waitress was very nice and accommodating. As far as the food, I had the The Arnold Hamandeggar and I can honestly say that was the best burger I've ever had. The burger alone was so juicy and had a wonderful flavor! The toppings just elevated it to new heights. The ham was also probably the best ham I've ever had. The fried pickles were also very tasty and not too salty.
Came here with a large group. We received complementary bread, and a side of creamy and buttery spread. I should have asked what the spread was, it was pretty good. I had the six hour braised beef. It was very juicy and soft, full of flavor. The sauce and pasta were very savory. All in all it was a delicious meal for a reasonable price.
After three perfect experiences at Pearl District, I can easily declare this one of the best restaurants in the LA area! The food is unrivaled, the ambiance is stunning, and the staff are so warm and wonderful! I have tried a different dish each time, and continue to be blown away. The cocktails are beautifully crafted as well. Thank you for the incredible service, can't wait to come back soon!
A wonderful dining experience from the hostess greeting to our waiter, Michael. Great service and wonderful food. This is definitely our favorite restaurant in a 60 mile radius.
Walking past and hearing the live music I side, I had to go in. I wasn't disappointed.
Smiling, happy staff met me at the door and made sure I was seated and comfortable.
The music performance was top notch, Comforting and added some extra grace to a charming establishment.
I learned after I had left that the food is very highly rated and makes the Three Muses worthy of a return visit, but when without the food, I already planned to go back. After visiting all of the music venues on Frenchman Street, The Three Muses is certainly the best.
A little bit of real magic in a forest of hocus pocus. Thanks folks. Your smiles made my day.

This restaurant is not what I would rate as fine dining. The ambience is nice, although a little crowded and the service was for the most part well above average. Taking a look at the menu I was very excited to try it.
I started with the she crab soup was very good.
Next came the fried green tomato. They were good, not greasy but a little bland. It wasn’t until later that I realized that the bacon was omitted which would have elevated the the dish.
Salads came out wilted with some of the greens having brown and dried spots.
Tuna was served rare and was good however,the side veggies were cold and some were under cooked and hard.
Pasta of the day was disappointing.. I found it to be greasy and a little bland.
This restaurant I believe has tremendous potential however, I think there are some issues in the kitchen, which are holding it back from being exceptional.

We like to go here because we know they care about the food quality. I think they have turnover with wait staff and I get it, the hours are limited. But we have never had a rude or unhelpful server, just newer and maybe confused. It is delicious though so it is worth it.
Wow! We found a true gem! Who says you can't find fine dining in Citrus County. It's right here. Absolutely top level kitchen! Can't wait to return. Here's a picture of the pork shank osso bucco w a demi glaze. Bravo!! Amazing !!
My friend and I went here on 03/23/2024, for a 6:30 reservation. We were seated right away. Our waiter name is Mike and he was the best. We later found out that he was just picking up a shift on the floor but he's mostly at the bar which made the experience better. He knew the menu and his recommendations were good. There was a slight mix up where the duck came with regular whipped potatoes instead of the sweet potatoes but he went and got the sweet potatoes on the side. The sweet potatoes are so good, I would come back again just for them. My friend surprised me for my birthday so I enjoyed the cake with the candles. The chocolate praline cake was really good and not overly sweet. I would come back to try their happy hour or their brunch menu. It was a truly great evening.
Note: I'm someone who doesn't like dark eating experiences or loud music, and the lighting was great here, and I was able to hear my friend with no issues. I don't even remember if music was playing, that's how good it was.

Nice intimate feeling jazz bar with some bites! I’d say the jazz and vibes were great, food wasn’t stellar (yak mein and pork dish) - I’m from Bay Area so it’s hard to beat Asian food there, it’s more of a fusion- but the performance and servers were wonderful, would come back for music and drinks.
What a lovely place with great a great selection of wines. Kasey was very knowledgeable and did a great job explaining the menu to us. We started off with the cheese tray and it was exceptional , the honey comb tasted so good! Then on to appetizers we had escargot and calamari with sauce on the side. For Entrées I had the duck and I loved the blueberry BBQ. My wife loved her filet we'll definitely be back it was a great date night!
Our food was okay. Other reviews were correct when they said the service is s-l-o-w ! We sat for 20 minutes before anyone spoke to us. It was a little busy, but definitely not packed. Even when busy it helps when staff - look at you & say “I’ll be right with you.” But no - no one looked our way. I had to flag someone down. Hostess wasn’t friendly either. When we finally got a server I will admit she was a sweetheart. I could tell she was doing her best. I’d have a drink at the bar, but I’d skip breakfast.
Restaurant within the Renaissance. Great service.
Omelets come in different ways.
This chef cooks the omelet with cheese in and dumps the ham after the eggs have set. Not my preferred way because the meal becomes a game of balancing the fork to keep the ham with the omelet. Good bacon 🥓 and sausage and great fruits. Nice to have pineapple and orange juice as options. Coffee pot brought to the table was lukewarm.
Service and atmosphere great and the kitchen needs to tighten it up.

The drinks here were great, and the bartender was super personable. The live music was fantastic.
For us, the best part was honestly that they include a live music fee on your check, which every bar in the area should start doing. Musicians deserve to be paid. 👏

We had dinner here to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Food was delicious and services were exceptional. We really enjoyed the evening.
This restaurant/ lounge is located in the Renaissance hotel. The food is very good,the atmosphere is great. What makes this place stand out is the service. The Assistant manager Mr Limon was fantastic,he made sure that the customer was first,the food was hot ,the location clean. If you ever stay at this particular hotel make sure you stop by for a great breakfast.
Everything was nice, food was very good! Service was fine, they seemed to try hard. Sat outside and it was overall very nice. I had the Red Snapper special...loved it! Cauliflower Stix App was very large and great for leftovers
A great spot to hang out and enjoy delectable appetizers and refreshing, unique cocktails; especially during their extended happy hour. Came here on a Friday evening and thankfully were able to find a table in the bar area. We got their bang bang cauliflower, fried chicken sticks, and fried cheese balls. We also ordered a couple of cocktails each. Everything was good, but the food was a bit bland. Needs a bit of salt and spice but otherwise a decent happy hour selection. Though the fried cheese balls are not on their happy hour menu, it is a must try item. Hadn't been here in a while and was pleasantly surprised to land a happy hour. Highly recommended!
I would recommend this restaurant to anyone, whether you're staying in the hotel or living in Raleigh or visiting. Drew/Khalif was very helpful and attended all our needs with the kids. However, the service was slow but the food was delicious. Highly recommend
The atmosphere is wonderfully cozy. The wait staff was amazing, friendly and attentive. I ordered the glazed salmon with gnocchi. The salmon was cooked perfectly, not overdone. The glaze had very good flavor and wasn't too sweet - again, perfect. Being in Central Wisconsin and having salmon this good, I am very impressed. My Bourbon Manhattan was delightful and paired nicely with the salmon. We will definitely return and highly recommend.
We went together for a work trip. Atmosphere was great, food was fantastic. I'm not a huge beer fan but they had a big variety and my group all enjoyed there choices. The cheese curds were very good. I had the shrimp creole and the portion was very generous and it was excellent. Definitely would go often if I lived in the area.
We visited 41Hundred during restaurant week. It was horrible. The service was incredibly SLOW! There was only my party and maybe 4 other people in the restaurant. We had to ASK to see the menus for restaurant week, waited over 20 mins for someone to take our order, waited well over 30 mins for food. My chicken sandwich was undercooked. Though I did get a new one. It did not taste great. It lacked seasoning. I would not recommend this place just based from my experience. Plenty of better places in North Hills.
Unique table seating at the bar. Cushions on the window ledge for people to wait for seating. Very interesting decor throughout the whole building. The food was great and came in a timely fashion. My only complaint is the freezing cold bathroom!?
The food was good, the price and service was not. It was very slow and there were only three other tables. I was unable to get a refill of water and we had to ask for napkins. The building was nice and it was easy to get to from the highway. If the price was $3-4 cheaper it would have been a 4-5 Star review depending on service.
Wow! What happened to this place? Thrive used to be one of our favorite restaurants in Wausau. Our experience yesterday was disappointing at best. The large maple pork chop is now 2 thin, dry, flavorless, and burnt pork chops. The potato mash that comes with it tasted like wall paper paste. My fish consisted of several thin pieces which were also flavorless. And then there were the drinks. The Brandy Old Fashion was smaller in size and larger in price at $7.50. We used to like the atmosphere and food at Thrive, but we will not be returning! For a decent quality meal and good service, go to Great Dane instead.
The staff was very nice and accommodating. The breakfast buffet was well stocked with fresh fruits including blackberries and strawberries. The bacon was crisp, but the sausages were too spicy. Darcy, our waitress, was great! She should get a big raise. It's located inside the Renaissance, but is a good place for business meetings.
I would recommend this restaurant to anyone, whether you live in the Raleigh area or are just visiting. The dining room and decor are warm and welcoming. It's a great place for a romantic dinner for two or a fun outing with friends. They have an extensive wine list with a lot of great options. The bartender was friendly and very knowledgeable and provided great recommendations. They also have a unique list of cocktails to choose from. My dining experience was one of the best I have had since moving to the area two years ago. The food was AMAZING. The Chef clearly takes pride in his profession and his passion for creating exquisite food shows through in every plate. Every course was beautifully presented and the Chef's experience and culinary techniques were apparent. We will be back!!
