Boxwood Restaurant & Bar

Stellar bottomless brunch on the weekends, it lasts till 5 pm Saturdays & Sundays! And it is bottomless in every way…food and drink. A luxury, since I hark from Boston where this is a rare sight :) Lovely presentation for each dish and the dining area is tucked away in the hotel, so it’s one of the most peaceful & quiet brunching experiences I’ve had!

This is truly a hidden gem!!! I went for brunch and everything from food presentation to taste was amazing! The bottomless brunch was 100% worth it and great value for the price! The staff was so attentive and friendly especially Matthew. I will definitely come back when I visit LA again!

The Most beautiful Brunch rooftop. Came with my mom on mother's day and we enjoyed it so much. There were plenty of options to choose from. I'm vegan and they gave me a burger and a cauliflower steak. The staff is extremely nice and friendly. We will definitely be back. The rooftop views are beautiful and there are plenty of umbrellas☂️ Take an Uber you will drink a lot of mimosas/ Bellinis🤗

One of the best hidden restaurants in LA because it’s in the London hotel but it’s truly exceptional. Highly recommend going here even if you’re not staying at the hotel. I’ve prob ate here 50 times and have never had a bad meal.

Boxwood is located at the lobby level of the hotel. We ate here 3/2/22 after attending a screening of “Spencer” in the hotel’s screening room followed by Q&A with the LA Times and Kristen Stewart about her reaction to being nominated for best actress in upcoming Academy Awards. Staff were courteous. John was our waiter and kept our Prosecco glasses full. I had the scallops and my wife had the steak. Meal prices are about what you would expect in this economy in an upscale hotel and I didn’t find it to be outrageous but reasonable. Valet parking only and valets were courteous and well staffed for the event. Very pleased with the restaurant and would have dinner here again.

Highly recommended! Took my son here for his birthday as he had been banging on about eating Gordan Ramsey’s food after watching too much Hells Kitchen. The dishes are pricey but that’s to be expected for a $$$ restaurant. The potion is good as you can see from the photos and you will be full. The menu does change but you won’t be disappointed. The atmosphere was ambient and chill. Our server was French which added some authentication to it serving British/European dishes. The restaurant is inside of the hotel so be careful with your Uber if they don’t go into the hotel driveway. Best to stand on the main road to avoid your Uber trying to leave so quickly and charge you.

The food was amazing! We ahd the beef wellington. Drinks were also delicious. Our waitress Daria was so kind and attentive! One of the best staff ever! She definitely deserves a raise!

I think I just had one of the best experiences of my entire life. Jeffrey and Brian just made my 3rs anniversary with my husband the MOST memorable night! The view was breathtaking, from the sunset to the Hollywood lights. We e joyed amazing craft cocktails, appetizers, entrees, and dessert with beautiful views and exceptional service. Brian even gave us suggestions on where to continue our night! I'm just overwhelmed with gratitude, I came so far to eat here and was not disappointed in the least. ❤️

Went today for afternoon tea. Great service. Big room but we were the first ones there and only 3 parties total there when we left with one server, but she was able to attend to our table nicely. Nice presentation. They ran a Pride theme tea today which was nice. Valet parking covered for 2 hours. Room has great natural light but the view was ok. I hear better from the rooftop. I would suggest more savory options over the sweet. Larger sandwiches. The scones were very good - moist and good flavor. Cost is $85 per adult and $22 extra for champagne.

I had the traditional afternoon tea with champagne and celebration cake back in July 2023. The drinks were definitely the highlight, and the service was wonderful -- attentive and friendly. While the food didn't quite meet my expectations, I still appreciated the experience. For afternoon tea, I'd probably choose Rose & Blanc or The Living Room next time for the food and ambiance.

Boxwood is a relaxing and welcoming sort of hotel bar, calmer and far less chaotic than many other choices on the Sunset Strip. Bartenders are friendly and skilled, serving up top notch cocktails with a side of enjoyable gab. I ordered a martini and was asked if I preferred shaken or stirred. I'm not James Bond, but to me this meant they weren't interested in a short pour they make look bigger by watering down the gin. I. E. this is a good place to have a drink or 20. I wasn't eating, but folks around me were, and the food looked and smelled amazing. From my observations, the burger was thick and nicely charred while being a perfect medium on the inside. Another lady was digging into a mix of calamari and veggies, lightly fried and enticingly fragrant. I will be back to try both. Yes, boxwood is a calming, upscale respite on the strip. Definitely visit and enjoy.

Made our reservation through DINE LA. Menu was great. Three course meal began with wonderful sourdough bread and butter. Then moved into a great Caesar Salad, followed by a fabulous beef short rib & Brussels sprout rosoto wood fired roasted beetroot mascarpone. The color on the plate was beautifully orchestrated to look very fancy. Our last plate was desert. It was a very rich chocolate cake. Had a few bites and was done. Great night, great dinner and close enough to walk to our destination The Viper room. Paid an extra hour and safely parked there.

Boxwood at The London has excellent food and drinks. A special thank you to the bartender Dakota as well as a server Luciano, who both made our stay at The London an especially wonderful experience. The ambience is upscale, trendy, and modern. During the day, there's plenty of natural sunlight. In the evening, there's an intimate feel. We ordered several different dishes throughout our stay at The London, including the burger, fries, fish tacos, and pineapple flan. All were delicious. In terms of drinks, Dakota provided phenomenal service and superb drinks. I recommend the spicy mango margarita on their specialty cocktail list, as well as a classic Old Fashioned. Or, ask Dakota what he recommends--everything he concocted was magnificent. I highly recommend visiting Boxwood during your stay at The London.

Granted you're will to pay the premium, Boxwood is a very memorable experience. I went here with my roommate for her bridal shower and it was great. We got dressed up and made the long drive from Ventura County! The whole experience made you feel like you were a character in some fancy movie or even a character just enjoying tea and snacks in an Alice in Wonderland type of environment. I really loved eating here. The service was great, the tea was amazing, and the food was good. 10 out of 10 I'd recommend this place to a friend or a stranger, it doesn't matter I'd recommend it to everyone haha.

We ate here for Thanksgiving. The prix fixe menu looked really great. Unfortunately the whole experience was a bust. We were asked to wait in the lounge as our table was prepared. We were met with random silverware on the floor in the lounge area which was off putting to start with. Shortly, we were led into the dining room from the lounge and immediately let down by how ugly, barren and terribly lit the dining room was. You would never know this dining room was in a nicely decorated hotel. It was a lot like the inside of a Denny's. There were no candles or arrangements on the tables - nothing to indicate this was a holiday dinner that cost over $100 a person. The lights were bright cool white, full blast overhead in semi-melted hanging lanterns that were absolutely pathetically out of place. It's like they renovated the hotel and got to this room and just stopped because it was out of their budget. It's strange because the bathroom within the dining room area matched the rest of the hotel. Our server was so kind and did her best but you could tell the place was short staffed and she was spread very thin. This resulted in some pretty poor service. Our menus were mistakenly taken before we even ordered our meal. We were brought bread, but no side plates. We asked twice for side plates and then when they arrived they were dirty. Drinks were ok, but there were a few ingredient issues at the bar that resulted in sending a drink back. Service was delayed throughout our experience. Trash was not cleared from the table. All around us, tables sat dirty and unbussed- some for entire duration of our dinner. The food was not great for the price tag. It all looked great and had beautiful presentation but fell very short on taste. The seafood tower and the turkey plate were the best of our items. Everything else was mediocre. We paid close to $500 between two people with drinks and a seafood tower. It was not even close to being worth it. It was a regrettable holiday experience.

Came here for a group event. They have a nice private dining area. This is a see and be seen kind of place. There were 2 celebrities here the night we came. The presentation is beautiful and the food actually lived up to the presentation! (Sometimes, food looks great and tastes like cardboard -- that was thankfully not the case). There was an amazing crab appetizer. The filet was tender and the veggies were crisp and tasty. The sorbet was good -- though wish they'd offered diff flavors as that was a giant serving of sorbet for one flavor. Lovely and would recommend!

Excellent french fries! Also, great breakfast service for hotel guests. We have only had breakfast and room service here so can't vouch for lunch or dinner.

Everything was made exceptionally well, especially the appetizer scallops. Expectedly pricey. Some staff were having an argument, which isn't very professional in this setting, even though they weren't loud. They do not have Beef Wellington - it's been off the menu for 6 months.

Wonderful food and service. Tasty cocktails. Fantastic $18 three-hour validated & covered valet parking. We enjoyed the Surf 'n Turf appetizer and various gourmet tacos. Highest recommendation!

Had brunch and lunch here during my stay, and the food was decent, with limited selection. The quality was decent and the taste wasn't bad. Overall, it's a last resort and convenient, but wouldn't make it a priority to come back.

We tried afternoon tea here today and it was deeply disappointing. I thought they would know how to do tea, being The London hotel but sadly, not. Sandwiches were minuscule and open face, literally 2 inches across. Tiny and dry and waaaay under seasoned. Then the sweet's arrived and there were so many of them. The scones were really dry and crumbly and arrived cold. Bad sign. A few of the sweets were ok but they really felt like they'd been made days ago and not fresh or vibrant at all. The cakes were dry and it was like bad bakery food. Tea was fine though the options were very limited which was surprising and disappointing again. Service was lovely, Kaitlin was great, but for $85 dollars (they wanted $22 for a low end glass of bubbles) it was really underwhelming. I've had afternoon tea all over town (and around the world) and I would never ever recommend the tea service at the London Hotel. Oh well.

Got a lot of family members together for afternoon tea. I didn't have high expectations for this place because I've been to many places for afternoon tea and this is NOT the town for this kind of affair. Honestly u need to go to the British Commonwealth for the real stuff. Anyways back to this review...so we went and of course it's not $85 worth but it had some highlights to share: jidori chicken puff and the current scone were the only items I really enjoyed. The tea is delicious. Small tea menu but looks curated. Yay they have real clotted cream. The ambiance is really nice and worth the special occasion. The service was great but at this price point things are lacking. They put out these individual honey jars for our tea but I noticed 1 was used in the batch. Anyways the search continues to find decent afternoon tea in the city of angels.

Boxwood was a lively noisy spot more for hanging out than for conversation. We were seated at a high table at the bar which was oddly inappropriate since the host of our party was obviously severely disabled . The servers were friendly and efficient. As for the food, a few of us ordered onion rings and French fries.. both were soggy and undercooked. The salmon was serviceable and the kale salad was generous.. creative and flavorful however , the dressing was heavy handed. A dessert pudding was a sweet finish . Definitely, a busy bar scene but it was disappointing for a party of 7 adults having a business dinner .

Omg I read some reviews on this place and it almost thwarted me off. The only real negative reviews are ages old and obviously before this place was being run how it is now. Idk if it was just because it was Valentine's Day, but it was absolutely FANTASTIC! I worked in restaurants for over a decade from Atlanta to LA, dive bars to fine dining and everywhere in between. Most restaurants struggle through days like holidays that explicitly illicit the setting of a restaurant. Though the kitchen struggled a bit to get the A5 wagyu Beef Wellingtons out to everyone in the restaurant, since everyone ordered it at once, how much grill and oven space can you have‍. The moment my girl and I realized the time our waiter was making his way over to the table with apologies. He offered concessions for the wait and the manager stopped by to touch the table shortly after. When we got the steak it was phenomenal!!! This was definitely one of the best meals I've EVER had and I will be going back on a non holiday just to test this thesis! Food ambience service price and value were all through the roof

I parked on sunset in front of the bank but you can valet. Parking on side streets is impossible. Ordered the branzino -- delicious. Had the tuna rolls for appetizer-- tasty. Bill for 4 was close to $400 -- a bit surprised by that -- must have been the alcohol lol. Prices for food was reasonable. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Ceviche is three different styles -- yummy. Great service and inviting vibe. No fuss. No drama. Couple of TVs for when you wait or the conversation gets boring hahaha. Nice spot! I'd come back!

Boxwood at The London in West Hollywood, adjacent to Beverly Hills is a restaurant inside the The London Hotel with a British swanky flair. The restaurant/hotel a few blocks away from the famed Sunset Bl. With the COVID pandemic, very few restaurants are open and those that are open, must operate under strict guidelines. I've dined here a few times and posted a review with pictures but strangely my review and many of my pics were removed..bizarre! My last visit and meal here were astonishingly very good, so I repeated it. The Icelandic cod prepared British style Fish n Chips with tartare sauce and mushy peas. Yes! Mushy peas are prepared buttery smooth as silk just like potatoes purée, except the end result is a bright spring green purée with the chlorophyll nutrients seducing you to healthy bliss. I always order extra mushy peas when done right. These were perfect, just like it's made in London. Fish n chips and mushy peas are served almost everywhere from bars, diners and restaurants, it's a British standard. This dish was presented nicely as before but missing was a bottle of malted vinegar as it's served like the Brits. This dish was served with tartare sauce, because most diners being Americans request tartare sauce :( Dessert was equally blissful; the mango mascarpone cheesecake with bright yellow swirls was artfully presented and was delectable. The restaurant prepared these dishes and presented via no contact room service delivered in front of my suite. It would have been nice to dine inside the restaurant but it was off limits, only orders for hotel guests and take away. The night cap was finished with a Tanguerey martini, 'shakened, not stirred,' just as British debonair BOND, James Bond, Mr 007 would have ordered. Cheers!

Very classy hotel. And very expensive. They also allow dogs! Check it out of you are rich.

This bar is very aesthetically pleasing. We stopped by to enjoy some delicious cocktails and small bites. The service was excellent. Unfortunately I did not enjoy the pizza very much, hence the 4 stars. The French fries were tasty as well as the drinks. I would definitely come back to try some other options.

I love this restaurant/bar. Food is always good and the staff is super nice. Very attentive. I've eaten here several times over the past few years and it never disappoints. If you're in Weho and need a good stop to grab a meal this is it. Located inside the London West Hollywood you never know who you might spot!

I love dining here! The service is good, ambiance and decor is classy. Cocktails are interesting and bartenders are friendly and good at recommending my drinks too. We ordered the sea scallops, wild mushroom pizza and the baby spinach avocado salad with shrimp. The 5 drinks we ordered were all excellent. There was one that was smoked in the smoke chamber which was one of my favs.

We made reservations for Christmas Eve We brought my eighty eight year old father who is disabled . When we got to the restaurant They didn't have seating in the main dining room. They had limited the sitting to the bar area which was never told to us when we made the reservation. The only seating they had for us was a high table with stools. When we told the manager that we had an 88 year old disabled man with us. He said we had no choice but to sit there. That the other tables which were at ground level and bigger were reserved for others. We were a party of five. We had nowhere else to go since it was Christmas Eve. We knew that there were no reservations available anywhere else. My father did his best to climb up onto the stool with our help it was embarrassing for him. The awkward moment with manager already started. They could have made an exception and put us in the main dining. The bar area was noisy and had horrible loud music in the background. We decided to Try to make the best of it since it was Christmas Eve. But things just got worse. The starter was good we had the Seafood tower the waiter was very pleasant and did his best. We were used to eating at high end restaurants with impeccable service and accommodations. The fact that we were sitting in the bar area was very annoying. Our Starters were good we had the surf and turf My father had the oysters. Which je said was good and I had the endive salad which was good. Everything started to fall apart with the main course. Every time we were served a course We had to tell the servers assistant where to place the meal who ordered what. At a "high-end "restaurant this This is not normal. Your server usually knows who ordered what we were only 5 of us. Once the main course was served, the prime rib was overcooked. My nephew had asked for it to be rare. My sister had asked for medium. She got rare I ordered the fish It was extremely fishy and dry, as well as my brother-in-law Who ordered the sea bass as well. The garnish was more tastier than the fish. We were very disappointed with the main course. All of us agreed that for the price and the place that we were at that It was unacceptable. We could NOT enjoy our meal. We were debating whether or not to tell the manager. When it was time for the dessert it was the last straw. It come out at different intervals Everyone got their desert at different times. The coffee we ordered with dessert was cold and we had to wait over 5 min to get sugar to the table. Two of us ordered the toffee pudding. It wasn't even a pudding it was a piece of cake and it tasted stale and dry. The pecan pie was ok. My dad ordered the apple tart which looked good but 3 out 5 of us waited more than 5 min for the other desserts to come out. When we finally got the courage to tell the manager he was not empathetic we told him everything that had happened and he didn't seem to care did not offer to make us walk away from the table to feel better about this experience. Super dissappointed so much so we left without leaving a tip for the waiter. My family has never done this but we were so upset at the manager that we felt the only way to send the message was to leave zero tip. I felt bad for our waiter he did a ok job with being short staffed but why should we pay for an expensive meal that was not what we expected. Then to top off the evening my father struggled to get out of the stool so much that when we halfway reached the exit he started vomitting. NEVER GOING BACK!

Just did the afternoon tea at Boxwood at The London and was sadly a bit disappointed. Would have liked to have given it 2.5 stars, and am torn if I should go for a 2, but... Our server was sweet, but the food and overall service was lacking. We were one of only two parties there for pretty much the entire time, which for a 1pm reservation on a Sunday is odd. Perhaps this was a sign that it wasn't going to wow us? We both opted for the Royal Airforce English breakfast tea, which was fine. From the company Rare teas. It wasn't anything special, honestly. I am vegetarian and had requested vegetarian finger sandwiches when I made the reservation. My friend had the standard set menu. They come with four sandwiches. His were all different and all on different types of bread, as is customary with afternoon tea. Mine were such a letdown. It seemed like the chef just remembered the 1pm reservation had one vegetarian and scrambled to think of what to make. Firstly, mine were all open face "sandwiches" which is just odd. Secondly, they were all on white bread. Thirdly, two of them were the same thing. And lastly, all four had zero flavour and lacked seasoning/salt entirely. An avocado and strawberry open face sandwich bite may LOOK pretty, but it's not a combo that works. And even less so when there isn't one speck of salt on it. One or two Maldon crystals would have changed this a bit. I asked our server to bring me a little of the cranberry walnut bread to try since I was stuck with four tiny white bread slivers, and she obliged. It was really tasty. I wish the chef would have done at least ONE of mine on this bread! At one point, while refilling my tea cup, the pot tipped over and spilled tea all over our table. OOF! No one came to assist. Mind you, our server wasn't in the room at the time, but another server was. I asked him for some extra napkins as I'd spilled tea, which was quite obvious. He returned with two kitchen rags and even said "Here you go, here's some RAGS"! I didn't even want to touch them, they looked dingy and wet. And I was pretty taken aback that he wouldn't have cleaned the table himself? Yes, I know...I am the one that spilled it. And I get that it wasn't his table, but at least he could have informed our server. We cleaned the table ourselves, to the best of our ability, and when he finally walked past (he'd been standing nearby, not doing anything), I asked him to take the rags. He took one. When our server finally came back into the room, she asked if I wanted more hot water. Maybe I'm just used to better service but my friend and I both thought that it would have been good of her to have just assumed and brought more hot water, removed my saucer that was full of tea, removed the other dirty rag... The sweet bites were all tasty enough. The scones were nice and the lemon curd was delicious. Sadly, one of the jam jars our server brought to our table had been previously opened by some other patron. I didn't try most of the sweets but instead brought them home with me, so I may update this later ha. I did have the ice cream cone which was yummy, and showcased some tea flavoured ice cream. Overall, it was another tea letdown. I am beginning to think I should skip trying any more in LA and just wait until I travel back to London. I cannot imagine anyone in London handing me kitchen rags to clean up spilled tea!!

So nice and comfortable atmosphere here If you want take a quiet place and work on your computer I took a salmon taste so good Recommend to try it Coffee is as usual nothing crazy

Due to covid, I don't think they are as busy as before. The staffs here are nice. Upon arrival, a lady gave my daughter a free unicorn goodie bag for entertainment. And our waiter Austin is polite and attentive (he was quite busy in between taking orders, making coffees and organizing the bar), but he managed to provide us a good service! We came for lunch; I ordered a salmon salad, my hubby ordered a skirt steak and my kid had the max and cheese. The food was pretty good and the portion was huge!!! None of us managed to finished our dishes.

Gordon Ramsay has done it again! I'm starting to develop an affinity for his restaurants (his pub and grill in Las Vegas is also AMAZING). Beginning with the starters, it was impeccable. It was my first time trying white asparagus and was surprised they tasted like green asparagus, just a bit sweeter. That sweetness combined with the char from the grill was the right way to handle this antioxidant-rich veggie. In regards to the Baked Stuffed Scampi, that sh*t was delicious! The breadcrumbs were buttery and the garlic wasn't overpowering (just how I love it). The rest of the meal went up from there!! I could've ate 10 bows of the spaghetti and meatballs. These tender meatballs paired with the cheesiest, most perfect al dente spaghetti was LIFE. I love how there was more sauce than substance, so that the meatball and pasta could soak up all those good flavors. Morgen enjoyed his branzino and it was enough to take home, plus good the next day. Saving the best for last, dessert was indescribable. The pastry and italian doughnuts were warm, soft, and buttery. For the Passionfruit Vol-au-vent & Bomboloni, the passionfruit was perfection and the powdered sugar added a complimentary element to the tartness of the sauce/filling. Overall, I REALLY enjoyed this meal!!

Very delicious and good service!! Parking is easy at the valet. This place is more of a chill loungey vibe and atmosphere. The menu is small, there aren't many options to choose from but everything we did get was very well made and great quality stuff!

5 star short rib tacos!!!! And not to mention the skirt steak is to die for. I stayed here for a few days and the food was immaculate

Stayed at London recently for ten days. Staff were really nice, professional and friendly. Service is good, food is excellent

I don't think I've ever quite had an experience like this in LA. It was honestly humiliating. I went to the hotel for an event. I was early and decided to go to the restaurant. I was seated and told a server would join me shortly. I was patiently reading a book at my booth and by the time I glanced at the clock, it had been about 30 minutes. Although the bar was crowded, the servers weren't busy and were continuously checking in on their other tables. A table next to me was seated and just as I was about to call someone over, the host gets the server's attention. He pointed in my direction, then at the table she just sat (assuming he was asking who to help first). And she just waves him over to the other table. I didn't want to make a scene (as this was my friend's event), so I walked over to the bar and ordered a drink. No one ever acknowledged me for the full hour I was there.

Typically I would not have gone to the Boxwood because it is a restaurant in a hotel unless I was actually staying in the hotel. I lucked out trying this out during a meeting. Gordon Ramsay is long gone from this location but I was happy to try Chef Anthony Keene's culinary vision. The place prides itself with interior design and you get that sense all around the hotel, carrying into the dining area. The ambiance is bright, hip and modern. There are tons of picture-taking opportunities and it was exemplified by young patrons taking Instagram pics of each other. Now with the dining experience. Wayne was our server and he was amazing and super friendly. He looked at me and suggested a dish that I probably would have overlooked. I would normally get the braised short rib and polenta (which a friend of mine said was very delicious) but I went with his suggestion and got the braised cod with baby clams on shrimp fried rice with a ginger coconut broth (that right there is what sold me! This island girl needed to try the dish.) Beforehand, we had the: spicy tuna roll crispy cauliflower with curry dip Brussel sprouts served with a delicious dressing All was very good! Now back to my braised cod: Wayne said that I have a bit of ritual to experience. He picked up the metal kettle that held the ginger coconut broth and poured it on top and around my dish. It was DELICIOUS! So unique and flavorful, everything was balanced and had an Asian influence. I would definitely come back just for that dish. Great ambiance, superb service and delicious food. e a

Went here for #DineLa lunch menu. The server was very nice. He was the only server though. Which having every table filled on the patio, made service delayed. We received our appetizers before our drinks (and that took about 20-25 minutes)the aguachiles tasted okay. The fish did not taste fresh. The burrata was delicious but the bread was a little too salty. The pizza was too much bread not enough sauce/cheese. The steak was very chewy. I wouldn't recommend. I did see someone order the lobster burger which looked beautiful. For dessert the chocolate ice cream cone display and taste was great! The strawberry shortcake display was nice. The actual cake part tasted like a pancake so I wouldn't recommend. Valet took about 20 minutes to pull up the car.

I had a great experience going to and ordering from this restaurant! I'm on a one night stay at the London, and since it's my first time in such an establishment the bar tender showed me the ropes. One server in particular, Dante, was so kind to show me the screening room! I've always read about the screenings here, and as someone in the industry, I wanted to see where the magic happens. Dante was so kind and funny, he showed me the screening room and gave me information about the breakfast room -- which is complimentary for every staying guest. Now, to the food. It was $50 for a burger, tiny fries and a cocktail. I am not a rich person, so I do feel that it is indeed waaaay too much. But I understand the nature of The London, and this is a splurge, so I won't knock it this time! It was a good quality food order. But just know it's pricey af. Overall, a great time! Thanks y'all. Oh and they do require vaccination proof to even enter, and I do love that LA does that. I'm from Orange County and they don't care at all. So be safe y'all.

Afternoon tea was lovely, albeit pricey, but very filling. Those little sandwiches are deceivingly filling and we barely touched the desserts (but took them to go!). A classy thing to do (beautiful presentation) and service was great.

My friends and I walked into Boxwood Lounge on Sunday and we had the most amazing time. We were not expecting much at all but the experience surpassed our expectations. Beatrice, Chris, Alana and Luciano made us feel at home by being welcoming, accommodating, friendly, efficient, courteous and professional. The drinks were superb and the food was delish!!! We will definitely come back anytime and recommend it to our friends and family thanks to the A-TEAM!!

I have only had breakfast here. The Huevos Rancheros is the best I have ever had. Perfectly crunchy, with even more crunch on the top. The flavors are bold and so delicious. The Monte Cristo was also very good, much lighter than your average Monte, but I enjoyed that. The waffle was sweet and a great thing to share. The Cronut was very good, but it is hard to mess up a Cronut. The staff here is very friendly and attentive. Overall, they have a great breakfast, and the ambiance is cute inside.

I came here for wellington beef but how could I say for 89$ for 2 people ，the price is ok but nothing special the tomato is just so so We order the 24 oz New york beef as well for mid rare but I felt it is over cooked They offer cold water for botte 10$ each no good The service here is good Valet parking really slow and weight over 10 min

This a a review for the updated tea service: I believe the updated afternoon tea officially occurred about 2 or 3 months ago. One of my favorite things to do is afternoon high tea. It always puts me (and everyone) in a good mood. The Boxwood's is easily in the top 5 of the ones I like in LA. The settings is lux without being pretentious or gaudy, the service is prompt but not overbearing, and the standard tea service includes a glass of champagne (sold) I went for the Lemon Verbena (tea) and was not disappointed. The only misstep was that we were sat in the main dining area as opposed to sitting room where the tea is traditionally served. I believe they were hosting an event Would have changed the date had I known Would triple check next time.

Usually when my wife and I have an unpleasant experience at a lounge or restaurant, it's a "One off," and then we move on. This place kills you in multiple ways. I have very few one-star reviews on Yelp but Boxwood clearly earned this one. To start with, we arrived at the lounge around 9:30 on Friday night and sat over at a table. The first thing we noticed is that everything is very slow here. Not a huge deal though. We ordered two drinks and then wanted to do some small plates and sushi. We ordered Chicken Dumplings and were clear about it. They brought out Chicken Meatballs and both the sever and the runner said that dumplings were meatballs. There were clearly meatballs on the menu so that was an outright lie but there was no getting around it. They said that their dumplings are different. No, they aren't. They were just too lazy to run the order back. What made it more irritating was that on the bill, it was clearly stated "Chicken Meatballs." This is just flat-out bad service. We ordered a Lobster Hand Roll, a Crab Hand Roll and also some Calamari that were fine except that the Calamari was over-battered. We ended up just being annoyed that two people treated us like we were idiots. The 2nd terrible experience was even worse. My wife wanted to know the breakfast schedule for Saturday so she clearly asked for details. They clarified the time at check in for breakfast. My wife was told that the buffet closed at 10:30 but that she could order off the a la carte menu until 11am. She asked twice if she could arrive after 10:30 since she had a meeting that morning and was assured that it was no problem. When she arrived at 10:34 on Saturday, she was promptly turned away. When she stated that she was informed by the front desk at check in that she could order off the a la carte menu, she was told she was "Mis-informed." You don't say that to your guest. My wife asked if she could speak to the front desk/concierge about it. At that point, the hostess stated she would call the concierge and tell them that I could not have breakfast. Again, that is just really bad training. My wife walked over to concierge and repeated what she was told at check in. He said that breakfast closes at 10:30am. She asked why the front desk would tell her 11am? He stated that the policy had recently changed and that the staff needs to be retrained. She stated she was told it was 11am and that should be honored. After a few minutes of silence, he picked up the phone and asked the restaurant to accommodate her. So is it her fault that Boxwood has not trained their staff? She walked back to the restaurant and asked to order an item off the menu for "to-go" and was told that she could be seated. As she walked in, the restaurant was still seating two new parties. Why could the restaurant accommodate those parties and not her original request? Why was it so difficult and that she had to talk to the concierge when other parties were still being seated? This is not a way to treat a guest. Clearly there was some wiggle room here, yet she was flatly denied and made to feel like a liar. She placed an order and 30 minutes later it had still not arrived, even though the restaurant was clearly closing. There were also dirty plates everywhere around her. This is what you would see in a dive bar and not in a restaurant that is located in a hotel that claims itself to be one of the best in the U.S. The last experience was during High Tea. My wife called the concierge to make an appointment for high tea the night we arrived. She was transferred to the restaurant to make the reservation and the phone rang and rang without being answered. She called back the concierge and asked if they could make the appointment for me, since she needs to attend to evening plans. This seemed an abnormal request as she received some hesitation before the concierge agreed to make the reservation for her. It seems that a concierce should have offered to make the appointment for me in the first place. Upon arrival at the High Tea the next day, her name was on the reservation list. She arrived promptly at 2pm and was told that "a big party had arrived" and that they were not ready for me. Why is that our problem? The restaurant is clearly unorganized and needs some customer service/management training. She was offered a glass of champagne while waiting, though it took 10 minutes to be seated past my reservation. Service was slow, yet there were only 3 tables having tea, including mine. I really can't find anything good to say about this restaurant because they failed at all of their points of service in the morning, afternoon and evening. In Los Angeles, there are a lot of choices and I would recommend passing on Boxwood.

I absolutely love rooftop dining at the Boxwood. Their staff is very well trained, pleasant and very experience-oriented. The view is fantastic. The cocktails delicious. The food, if I'm being honest, is sort of a 3.5 star experience for me, but I'm an unbearable food snob, it's really quite good, just not quite world class. Thank God, this place is walking distance from my place, and if the food was five-stars too, I'd be broke.

Beautiful hotel so I thought this restaurant would be up to that standard. We were totally disappointed with the food. In this area the options for high quality meals is plentiful. The tuna tacos were chewy and drenched in liquid smoke. I sent those back. My son ordered the skirt steak and it smelled horrible and tasted worse. He substituted a different steak and it was edible but nothing above average. We also had to eat in the bar because they were having a special event. Lastly, they reported our reservation a no-show to Open Table. Waiter did his very best and was very accommodating. 300.00 tab for two was almost harder to swallow than our meals.

The manager said this restaurant is not belong to the famous Chef Gordon Ramsay anymore. The starters taste good, but the steak is over salt and dry (chewy). Laurie's in South Coast Plaza even moist and soft than Boxwood steak. Sorry, this is the honest review. But the service is awesome, though.

Met a friend for lunch during Dine LA week. I wasn't expecting a lot but was pleasantly surprised with a very nice lunch and overall great experience. Since the menu seems to change frequently, it's hard to recommend specific dishes, but we were able to easily find something tasty for every course. If they have a cheesecake though - highly recommend you get that! The crab toast was excellent as was our add-on side of skinny fries. The stand out was the mini-donuts with various sauces... so good! The huge portion of risotto I had for lunch was also a winner. Some places give you attitude or mini portions or unappealing choices during Dine LA, but we didn't have that experience at all at Boxwood. In fact, we had so much food for lunch we had to take a good bit home. Service was terrific and the atmosphere of the place is just right - would be good for a meeting but also nice just to go with friends. Valet parking is pretty much your only option in the area (restaurant will validate for discounted parking rates).

So dissappointing. Service is everything, which means the Boxwood has nothing. Our friends were staying at The London and they wanted to make a dinner reservation at the Boxwood. They were told that it wasn't busy and a reservation wasn't necessary. When we showed up to be seated, we were told that the dinning room was closed for a private party and that we would have to sit in the bar to eat. Pathetic After sitting at a bar table for over ten minutes, I went to the hostess and told her that no one has come to our table. My friend also went to the bar to get some service but no one came. After another ten minutes, I again went to the hostess and asked to speak to the manager. He finally came out and took our drink orders. In the end, it took twenty mintues, 3 trips to the hostess table and a manager to finally get some service. Pathetic. My review should end here with only one star but I hesitate because our food was good (once we finally got it). When the bar manager finally came out, he took care of us for the rest of the evening and served us our food and drinks. I've been here about 5 or 6 times and it has never been great. This place doesn't make you feel like a customer or a guest, but more like an inconvenience and a distraction. There are too many great places to eat in this city to have to put up with indifference like this.

Valet was $6 bucks for 3 hours so not bad. The restaurant was really fancy and looked nice/casual Our server was great. We got the risotto with short rib and scallops both were tasty, the risotto did need a little bit more salt. We got 2 drinks which were good but 18 each so not really worth it. Then we got cheesecake and chocolate truffle brownie. They were good but nothing special they could of been store bought. Overall the main course and ambiance were great.

We made dinner reservations two months in advance for a birthday dinner. The day before, the manager called to be sure we had vaccination cards and added we would be seated in the bar as they now had "an event in the dining room." No apology, nothing. I insisted on a table in the bar as we did not want to be seated in the bar and had clearly made the reservations for the dining room. We were seated at a table as promised but in a bar, nothing like the dining room. Drinks arrived and were fine, but when the salads arrived, one of us received a live moving insect in our salad. We immediately brought it to the attention of the waiter - again no apology or anything just a "we we get food from the local farmer market." New salad arrived but we were now worried and couldn't enjoy them. Wellingtons arrived and they were completely overdone and not close to the quality we've had at several other restaurants. Needless to say for almost $500 and a mediocre dinner, we will never be back and don't recommend this place!! FOLLOW UP: Two of four of us were up with stomach issues all night. This place is something to avoid!

Had a great dinner here. Food was exceptional. Had the mushroom pizza and crab toast appetizers. Both delicious and generous portions. We both had the skirt steak as entrees and it was a healthy portion, tender meat served with vegetables and a big stack of onion rings. For dessert we had the chocolate cake and coconut tapioca with coconut ice cream on top and served in a real half of a coconut. Our server Kaitlin was very attentive and knowledgeable and helped with wine selection. The manager, Luciano, was very welcoming and engaging with us and other customers. Overall great food and service and atmosphere. We will definitely return. Thank you for a memorable dining experience.

I picked this location for my birthday celebration because I had read that Chef Gordon Ramsay was the owner or part owner. Anyways, so I read the reviews on this place and didn't think it was going to be all that great, but I said why not let's give it a try right. I reserved on OpenTable and when when we got there we were quickly seated the hostess even read the notes since I put celebrating birthday which was nice. Our waitress was Ashley and she was very nice. For our drinks she recommended the Hot stuff and the love me do. We had the filet mignon, Snapper and the roasted scallops which were all amazing dishes. I don't know how this place has such low ratings I had wonderful service, a great view of the sunset, and a amazing food. I didn't want to bother with parking so I decided to do valet because it was so much more convenient and it was $10 with validation from the restaurant. So don't forget to get it validated.
