SOOOOOOOOOOOO EXPENSIVE! – ok silly me, what did i expect when i made reservations for sunday brunch - a good deal? no, that is not what you get when you come to the four seasons hotel. you get to rub elbows with celebrities though. We were seated one table away from Macy Gray while we were helping ourselves from the OVERWHELMING array of buffet items: don't get me wrong: the food is delicious, but if you have a small stomach, the spread isnt worth the $70 flat fee per head. and where they got me was the liqour. i was naive ... read more

Elegant Cal-French dining in romantic chamber or garden patio. – The Scene Oil paintings of European countrysides line cream-colored walls, while orchids in demi-vases dot tables dressed with silver settings and pomegranate-motif charger plates. The patio, with roll-away sunshading, sits among palms and lemon trees, garden fountains and three-foot pillar candles. The Food Chef Ashley James, whose presentations often favor pairing meats with fruit garnish, combines the savory and the sweet for a melodious mix. The goat cheese... read more

The Best Brunch EVER!!!! – I try to go at least every few months as the brunch is quite pricey. The service is excellent. You can watch the stars and be treated like one as well. The food is always fresh and the presentation is breath taking. I reccommend going the weekend before any awards ceremony taking place in the area that is your best bet for seeing Hollywood's finest. I often take out of town guests there and they are always more than impressed.

classiest high tea in LA – I am a high tea devotee and I've had them all over the city -- the Peninsula, the Beverly Hills Hotel, Bistro Garden... This is the best! Luxurious environment, super-accomodating staff, yummy finger sandwiches and pastries.. Plus, Larry Flynt eats here all the time in his gold-plated wheelchair.. RAD.

Agua Luca rum – The food is amazing. The scene is great. But the Agua Luca drinks are incredible. Ask for an Agua Luca Caipirinha, margarita or mojito. The server recommended that we try this new ultra-premium rum from Brazil and the drinks he made were unreal. I wouldn't leave without trying an Agua Luca margarita or something. Great appetizers and the staff are very knowledgable. I would definitely go back for a happy hour dinner any time.

One of my favorites in LA – I usually get to enjoy a meal at Gardens several times per year. I have yet to have a bad meal........my worst meal would be considered 'very good.' My favorite is the five course tasting menu. Each meal is always made to perfection......with taste and aesthtics. The desserts are to die for. If you have a monsterous appetite, you might want to consider the Sunday brunch, which runs for $50 without champagne and $65 with. You'll find everything from your ordinary breakfast items to sashimi, a seafo... read more

Great place all around – The award winning dessert is a must - Chcolate souffle with raspberry foam, Chocolate Caramel cake. The tasting menu is always a good way to go but you can always order them a la carte. If you go with the regular entree dishes, the chef is quite generous with sending out complimentary dishes between courses. The brunch buffet is also very good. Last but not least, the waitstaff is absolutely the best.
