   We had such a lovely time here for the Oscars viewing party! They made the event so special, the food was delicious especially the pepperoni flatbread and the ambiance was stunning.

   We planned a belated Valentine dinner prior to a performance across the street and really didn't know what to expect from a restaurant attached to a movie theatre complex. We had a most pleasant experience starting with our waiter, Anthony, who was very energetic, knowledgeable and interesting. The food was excellent and the price point very reasonable, especially for La Jolla. We very much enjoyed the atmosphere. It was very quiet for a Saturday; but we did start at 5:30. We will definitely be back.

   Took forever to get water or order drinks. Told waiter we were going to a movie in 75 minutes next door, but food came instantly, such that we were finished with dinner in 30 minutes with no thought to pacing the drinks, appetizer and entrée courses. Never offered to refill my diet coke glass. I ordered the turkey cobb salad, but...surprise...there was no turkey which I noticed after a few bites and had to ask for turkey. -> All-in-all, a pedestrian experience with marginal 'fast food" in an upscale restaurant setting. I would not make this a regular restaurant even before or after a movie.

   Thank you for your detailed feedback. We're truly sorry to hear about your experience. It sounds like we missed the mark on several fronts, from the timing of your meal to the quality of service and the missing turkey in your salad. This is not the standard we strive for, and we apologize for the inconvenience. We'll address these issues with our team to ensure better service and attention to detail in the future. We appreciate your input and hope you'll consider giving us another chance to provide a more enjoyable dining experience. -Rob Calvillo
