"There’s a decent chance you’ve seen this personal-pizza-sized cinnamon roll on social media. The pièce de résistance of Baltaire’s influencer-favorite brunch, this $35 behemoth is wheeled over on a cart and frosted tableside, which inevitably draws stares and phone cameras. That said, of all the brunch-y gimmicks at this Brentwood steakhouse, this one has the most substance. The roll is so plush it could double as a couch, and though we wish there were more filling, the sheer amount of rich cream cheese frosting makes up for it.Is It Better Than Cinnabon?No, unless you really need to spend $35" - Cathy Park, Garrett Snyder
"Baltaire opened in 2015 as Brentwood's first steakhouse. We're always surprised by this fact. Before it opened, where did producers pitch questionable prequels and luxury real estate agents celebrate whatever it is that luxury real estate agents do? Who knows, but now they have this restaurant, where the cheapest steak is $72. Chances are you're using your corporate card, but at least have confidence you'll get a quality meal complete with lobster risotto and an oyster platter." - sylvio martins, brant cox
"There’s brunch, and then there’s bougie brunch. The latter takes place at Baltaire. It earned that status because of the king crab deviled eggs, raw bar, Maine lobster omelet, and carne asada chilaquiles. Prosecco is always nice, but the tableside bloody mary cart is divine with a house-made mix, and Beluga Transatlantic Racing Russian vodka. Go ahead and add the chilled jumbo shrimp skewer and sip away the day." - Rebecca Roland
"Brentwood’s local steakhouse Baltaire is offering prime rib packages throughout the month of December, including Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve. The packages come with fancy sides like lobster bisque, roasted heirloom carrots, olive oil mashed potatoes, and a chocolate silk pie. They serve four ($295) or six-to-eight people ($495), or, you know, just you for the entire week. Pre-order here." - brett keating
"With studio heads living on every corner, Brentwood seems like the kind of place that would have seven high-end steakhouses. But there’s just one (relatively new) place to eat giant pieces of meat, and it’s assimilated into the neighborhood very quickly. Baltaire is big and moodily-lit and you can easily pretend you’re in Midtown Manhattan, not a place where palm trees sub in for skyscrapers. This is the kind of place where the cheapest steak on the menu comes in just under $50, you can add on a lobster tail, and literally no one is using their own money for dinner." - jess basser sanders, amy clark, brant cox
