"If you want to know what life feels like inside a luxury condo in West Hollywood, grab dinner on top of The Pendry. The massive complex is a mix of hotel rooms, private residences, and several different restaurants, but Merois, the rooftop restaurant, should be your priority. The indoor dining room offers full views of the Hills, Downtown, and even Catalina when the smog clears. The Wolfgang Puck restaurant isn’t groundbreaking, but the seafood-leaning menu has solid dishes like seared scallops, charred octopus, and other things that taste good as you watch the sunset over the city." - brant cox, arden shore
