We were able to get a reservation for dining within 20 minutes of when we first looked at availability which allowed us to get there quick, with no waiting. We were able to get window table and were seated as soon as we arrived. Food was very good and service was exceptional. The noise level was higher than we prefer, but this is a very popular restaurant for larger groups, so the noise was not unexpected.

Brought my parents and grandmother who were visiting from out of town. The service was incredible as always. The food was absolutely perfect. My family kept raving about how delicious everything tasted, especially the scallops and carrot cake. The atmosphere is great, no better place in HB to watch the sunset than at Lorea.

We just got married and we booked the restaurant to have dinner. It was amazing! They gave us complimentary glasses of champagne. The calamari was really good 👍 the food overall was good, the chicken katsu and the rib eye tacos were really good. For dessert, the creme brulee was sooo good! :)
