Cara Restaurant

I love this restaurant, one of my favorites in town. Their service is exceptional and it's a classy place and modern. You are basically sitting in the middle of the hotel with nice plants and little pools. Their drinks are fantastic and the food is good. I highly recommend this place if you have not been there.

Had a fantastic dinner here! We ordered the black truffle pappardelle, pan-roasted salmon, and the charcoal-grilled organic maitake mushrooms—everything was absolutely delicious. The truffle pappardelle was rich and perfectly cooked, and the salmon had a beautiful sear with a melt-in-your-mouth texture. It came with a spicy side sauce that really elevated the flavors and brought the whole dish together. I also had The Extended Stay cocktail, which was light, floral, and refreshing with just the right balance of citrus and sweetness. The atmosphere was warm, and the staff were super friendly and attentive. You can tell they really care about the details here. Will definitely be back!

Saw the place in selling sunset and therefore went here for dinner with reservation. The reception was very friendly, so was the staff in general. For a Sunday night shortly before new years it was surprisingly quiet. We ordered the tomatoes and mozzarella as a starter to share and as main we had the lemon pasta and pan fried salmon and everything was so good! Only the salmon was a bit spicy. The atmosphere is super romantic but bring a jacket as it is all year outside eating. Still, we were super satisfied!

I had a fantastic dining experience at Cara. The atmosphere was welcoming and the staff was incredibly attentive, making the entire visit enjoyable. The cocktails were beautiful and delicious. Whether you are a fan of classic drinks or more adventurous mixes, there is something for everyone. The bartender clearly knows what he is doing! Combined with the exquisite menu, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended for a fun evening with friends or a special date.

I had high expectations for my first visit to LA, but unfortunately, my experience at CARA was incredibly disappointing. Despite having a reservation, we had to wait 40 minutes to be seated, while walk-in guests who arrived after us were accommodated first. When we were finally seated, our table was in an uncomfortably cold area. We requested the heater to be turned on, but it was either not functioning or simply ignored. No one followed up or made any effort to address our discomfort. Ultimately, we decided to leave without ordering and found a much better dining experience elsewhere. What made the experience even worse was the attitude of the host. She was unhelpful, unfriendly, and made no effort to apologize for the inconvenience. A restaurant’s service should be just as important as its food, and in this regard, CARA fell far short. I truly regret visiting this restaurant and would not return. For anyone looking for a place that values its customers, I would recommend looking elsewhere.

I discovered the restaurant while staying at Dune's Inn Motel on Sunset Blvd. And what I can I say … it’s like an oasis, a hidden gem. I really liked dining there and came in for three days in a row because it was just around the corner and I could walk there. The service was excellent and so was the food. Johannes and his Team did a great job. I can really recommend visiting the Cara Restaurant. 🇩🇪

The tastiest buttery crossaint... yum 😋 and the teas was delightful. The view and atmosphere of this café is the highlight. Marvelous vibes ✨️ 💖 💛 perfect for girls time .. and silly me forgot take the photo of the best part aggghhh 😢

I recently dined at Cara and had an absolutely delightful experience. The truffle pasta was hands down the highlight of the meal - it was rich, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The New York steak and ribeye were also standout dishes, cooked exactly to my liking and bursting with flavor. For starters, I highly recommend trying the crab cakes - they were exquisite and set the tone for a fantastic meal. And don’t miss out on the fries - they were the perfect accompaniment to the meal, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Overall, the food, ambiance, and service at Cara exceeded my expectations, and I can’t wait to dine there again.

Service 10/10 Atmosphere 10/10 Food 8.5/10 As I entered the hotel entrance, the hotel staff welcomes my wife and me. The hostess greets us with a smile and led us to our table even though we are 15 minutes early from our reservation time. The server soon followed to offer us the drink menu. The southern bell hop cocktail was one of the most unique and delicious whiskey cocktails I've had. It had a subtle banana aroma but maintained the oaky integrity of the whiskey. We ordered the scallop and burrata and prosciutto appetizer which were both pretty good. The famous lemon pasta had amazing texture but definitely was not as zesty as anticipated as the name suggests. However it was still a tasty pasta. The branzino was delicious. Perfectly balanced in texture, flavor and richness. The chocolate chip cookie served in a tiny cast iron with ice cream a la mode was the perfect finish to the meal. It is served piping hot. Overall this restaurant was a great selection to celebrate my wife's birthday and I would recommend it for anyone seeking a romantic venue with wonderful service and food.

Upbeat, airy, sophisticated, yet not pretentious, Cara oozes Los Angeles. Cara is a trendy East Hollywood establishment that offers eclectic Californian cuisine at an appropriate price, laid back, yet attentive service, and vibes that are carelessly chic. Cara's drink menu is excellent, offering a series of unique cocktails at standard prices for the area. I had the "Extended Stay", a vodka and blood orange based cocktail that was crisp and delicious. For appetizers our group of four had the Little Gem Lettuce, Prosciutto and Buratta, and Yucatecan Ceviche. The Little Gem Lettuce was the star appetizer, with crisp lettuce and tangy aged parmesan cutting against tart apples and sweet dates. A generous proportion for the asking price, this salad was a perfect start to a great meal, and perhaps the best item of the entire night. The Prosciutto and Buratta was rich but not exceptional, and the Ceviche suprisingly spicy yet and delicate. Following was the Lemon Pasta, Truffle Papperdelle, Grilled Shrimp, and a Ribeye. The Lemon Pasta was the highlight of this course, with an incredibly tangy, almost overpowering, yet addictive, lemon bite, topped with aged parmesan. The truffle papperdelle was rich, savory, but a touch heavy for my liking. The shrimp were large, cooked perfectly, with a touch of spice, letting the light shellfish contrast against the heavy items elsewhere on the menu. The Ribeye was fatty (even by Ribeye standards) and a little thin for more liking, but succulent nonetheless with a good crust. We concluded with the Olive Oil Cake and Sticky Toffee Pudding, which were both good. The Olive Oil Cake was a little rich, and while the creme freche could have been a little lighter for balance, it was effective. The Sticky Toffee, always a personal favorite, was well aerated with good crumb and able to keep its moisture despite a flatter profile than other iterations of this dish I've seen elsewhere. The marscapone was a heavy yet classic pair, although vanilla ice cream for this version would have been more effective. I would disagree with previous reviews stating staff seemed to be in a rush. Everyone, from the valet to hostess and waitstaff seemed at ease, despite a busy Friday evening. Our waiter Alex was attentive and patient, gave us recommendations that drove our decisions above, highlighted the Little Gem, and truly let us take our time for a meal and experience that somehow passed the three hour mark in the blink of an eye. Value is fairly standard for a restaurant of this type. The appetizers, drinks, and desserts were all well priced, and while the Ribeye and Papperdelle were a little pricey, it was not egregious. Ambiance is Cara's greatest strength. Set in the outdoor courtyard of an upscale hotel, somehow obscured by drapes and umbrellas, the restaurant is illuminated by sunlight by day and bulb-clad trees at night, while white walls, tables, and chairs lift the decor. Cara is very much about the vibes, and will be sure to delight a date or small group. Food: 4/5 Service: 4.5/5 Ambiance / Facility: 5/5 Value: 3.5/5

What a gem of a spot. Big fan. Both times I've dined here- once for dinner, once for brunch, have been divine. I'm still surprised that a hotel restaurant (and in this general location) could be one I see myself frequenting often but here we are. The space is so gorgeous- they really did a great converting it into what it is today. The vibes are wonderful- there's regular seating but also "poolside" (just by the shallow body of water in the center) which also has its own feel. Food is absolutely delicious, and nothing is outrageously priced. I think about the avocado beet grapefruit salad often but everything we've had from cocktails to desserts have even a delight. Solid presentation, taste, etc. Best of all, the service is just...chef's kiss. Please pass my regards to the Asian host who is such a joy. And the servers and even the front desk and how pleasant they are for direction people to the bathrooms by then when I am sure they get the questions all the time. Everyone is so sweet and accommodating and you don't ever feel rushed out. The perfect spot for friends, dates, business clients, colleagues. I love it.

The vibes are all that you should come here for. The food is pretty bland. The menu is pretty small but great cocktails. The way staff seems to be in a rush, but pretty sweet . Be prepared to use valet and dress cute

Great dinner, and even greater as we had originally made a reservation on 4th of July at a different restaurant which happened to be as closed as it could be. We looked around in the area, and Cara Was an obvious choice. The ambiance on the porch looked very nice and relaxing. The staff was very attentive. Okay, that's all great but what about the food: it was splendid! To start with the prosciutto&buratta as well as the lamb skewers, followed by the branzino, a Cara cheeseburger, and the truffle pappardelle. All excellent. Crowning the evening with an olive oil cake and sticky toffee pudding was an all-around positive experience.

Cara restaurant is located within the Cara hotel near Thai Town/Hollywood. First off it is an absolute vibe to dine here as we got seated next to their famous pool. Once the sun goes down the lights come on and just makes the entire experience better. Top instagramable place. Worth getting: -cocktails are 8/10. very unique and delicious -ribeye was a 9/10. cooked to perfection and seasoned well -lemon pasta 8/10. never had something like but it was quite delicious and citrusy from the hint of lemon -truffle fries 8/10. cant go wrong with this. Our waiter was extremely helpful and recommended a lot of things that we ended up getting. Always made sure we were topped off on drinks. 10/10 experience. Will be back for sure Valet parking is $15 and well worth. They also accept cash as that was an option when I did valet for my car. Valet service was very nice and attentive.

Nice dinner here in a lovely seat by the pool. Unexpected place for a restaurant right in the middle of a motel-style hotel, but I did not see any people going in or out of the rooms so maybe they are not open or just a bad motel ... I do not know but the food was pretty good!! The shishito peppers were my favorite thing that we had, an inventive mix of ingredients that works surprisingly well together. The charcoal chicken was also very good too - half of a chicken cooked slightly crispy and served deconstructed on a plate. Service was great and everyone was very attentive to drink refills, but the food took soo long to come. Our small group was there for almost three hours I think. luckily we had plenty of drinks and time to kill!

Experienced and professional valet is always a great start. Wonderful greeting and lunch seating by Brianna. Excellent service from Diana. Best Bronzino ever and have tried many places including Italy. Perfect, and was my second time having it. Bravo. Lemon pasta was also scrumptious and expertly prepared. The outdoor seating was delightful with a nice cool very light breeze on a warm day. Looking forward to coming again for brunch and dinner.

Such a cute spot! The night vibe is lovely Valet was easy, $15 so worth it, only parking option is meters nearby The lighting throughout the bar/restaurant is what really set the mood. First, we had a drink at the bar while we waited and were shortly taken to our table after. Hostess was so sweet and accommodating (we were early and she was able to sit us sooner than our res) Courtyard dining area was dreamy. The lighting, the pool, the trees- all of it was so pretty. The perfect place to enjoy a meal Our server was so sweet, and answered any of our questions without attitude The food was delish. 100% recommend the lemon pasta, it's cream and flavorful but not too much, truly yummy. Caesar salad was good, dressing was also on the lemon-y side. Fries were fries lol. As for drinks, I had 3 of the lady M, I just couldn't get enough, loved the lychee! Overall such a great experience here, totally recommend! I would for sure come back, maybe during the day for a different view!

Came here for an anniversary dinner. Went in and took a while to get our order taken, but food came rather quickly. Lemon Pasta - Very much straight lemon juice and oil. Needed more Parmesan throughout, cream/butter and spices-- very one note and got cold fast. Chicken - had a strong charred taste on the outside which was nice, but pretty bland and one note besides. Truffle Fries - up charge of $10 to change from mashed potatoes (though if bought separately they're only $4 more...) - very weak truffle and Parmesan flavor, pretty much none at all. Basically plain fries. Ambience was nice but for the price it was absolutely not worth it. Even if the prices were 50% of what they were, the food was just so flavorless and one note we wouldn't come back for it. Portions are also small-- think it's the most I've spent for the least amount of good food -- ever. Does not include bread or do anything special for anniversary/other event, which is fine, but the waiters didn't have any kind of interest or ask/friendliness or smile or anything.

What a beautiful oasis!!! I couldn't believe this haven is at the corner of Western and Hollywood! I could have stayed all day. As for the food, the cheeseburger was good and juicy. Perfect size and not too huge. French fries were a little dry but homemade ketchup (?) was a nice touch. Dylan as a solid server and I'm looking forward to going back.

Food and drink are okay nothing out standing. I'm not impressed with the service too rush to leave awhile I still have food and drink on the table. The server came to me and asked if I didn't want to order anything else he will need the table our restaurant is busy just so let you know ! Big man with mustache. And I think he noticed I'm really upset he came back to apologize to me. Ambiance is very nice beautiful restaurant.

Live Jazz in the garden. Need I say more? Well yes. The adjacent cozy bar is open to the garden and has an old Hollywood look and feel. A time when people made an effort to dress well. Very cool vibe with interesting mixed crowd. I wouldn't recommend the food but it was very crowded and like most places now, under staffed. Totally forgivable cause the staff ran like crazy to keep things going. For dinner, poolside is so beautiful! Little gem salad mouth watering. Highly recommend this place. We've been several times and now we are regulars. Show off if you have an out of town visitor. This could be the best for atmosphere. Affordable glamour. Worth your while. Valet out front. But the wine, while expensive is delicious -ride share for us. Poolside dinner? Make an entrance.

I love Cara it's a very sexy place to grab lunch on a date or with a friend. I love the location perfect before a hike or going to the Greek

10/10! I loved everything about this place! First, the ambiance takes you far away from LA like you're in a resort, I love how upscale and clean everything is. The staff is also amazing; from the valet to Hannah at the bar to Leal our waitress. I wanted to personally thank Leal for making the experience ten times better; she was so kind and patient, had the best suggestions and maintained a positive attitude the entire evening. She also made amazing suggestions, which leads me to the food. Everything was fresh and full of flavor; I feel the truffle parp needs something extra as it's a little blah but still tasty. The valet is 15$ (no cash) and there limited street parking (metered). I'd say it's great for adults, not so much for kids. I will definitely be back!

I had a wonderful time at Cara. I received an email about the salsa and live music night on wednesdays, and I was excited to try it. Music was great, and everyone is having such a fun time dancing! :) Dinner and drinks were superb! Everything tasted amazing and drinks were crafted perfectly with fresh ingredients. I love sitting by the pool it feels like you're on vacation! Such a vibe, and picture worthy. Staff is also amazing and very attentive. Service 10/10

Ambiance: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Marie the general manager was so pleasant and accommodating, as was our server Danni! Food: 9/10 We ordered the lemon pasta with grilled shrimp which was delicious! Broccolini was lovely Prosciutto with burrata was great Truffle fries also delicious Definitely excited to come back for a nice dinner with friends and family

Went here for a dinner with my girlfriends. The ambiance is absolutely beautiful and very relaxing. They have very comfy outdoors seating that is very spaced out between each party so you feel very relaxed and comfortable. The food was all amazing, the steak was exceptional along with the Brussel sprouts. We had an amazing waitress named Dani! she was sweet and kind and patient. She helps ua pick a few apps and meals. She walked us thru the menu and helped us pick a lot of delicious dishes. I would definitely come back!

Went with my friend and had reservations, it was a wait to be seated. They have valet parking for $15. The drinks are good and the food is delicious, I had the chicken shawarma and loved the cucumber salad. The ambiance was perfect, the lights look very beautiful at night.

I would give the ambiance 5 stars. Love the outdoor setting and the decor. The host David was really nice and so was our waitress Meg. Meg gave some great recommendations for food. Highly recommend the Lemon Pasta (add some shrimp) and the crab cake was delicious!! Some things are pricey but the food was worth it. Vanilla ice cream is sooooo good!

Cara Restaurant exceeded expectations for a birthday lunch celebration. The elegant ambiance set the stage for a special occasion, and the attentive staff added a personalized touch. The menu's diverse options catered to various tastes, ensuring a delightful culinary experience. Each dish showcased a blend of creativity and quality ingredients, elevating the overall dining experience. From the impeccable service to the delicious desserts, Cara Restaurant stands out as an excellent choice for marking memorable moments with a touch of sophistication and culinary excellence.

Not busy before 7pm. Great music, drinks and food. Really cute date-spot seating for two besides the pool.

The lemon pasta was excellent, as was the service and ambience. I've seen Cara Restaurant all over social media for quite some time and was excited to finally try it out - it's definitely a "prettier in pictures" place, but still pretty good overall.

For the amount of money we're paying for this meal, they could afford better service. Went here for my daughter's Sweet 16 & were initially excited to dine at a restaurant so pretty. The ambiance is great. 2 stars for that. However, the food was sadly underwhelming and we decided we didn't want to chance a disappointment with dessert. The valets had better service, which was greatly appreciated when we left.

Love everything about this place! The food is excellent - nearly every plate is delicious. The ambiance is incredible. It's a beautiful place for lunch or dinner! Service is a bit slow. Only real complaint: the burger says brioche but it doesn't come out with brioche.

So I visited this place a week ago. A nice seat by the pool. Very nice staff, the rosé was smooth but the brownies were mediocre and dry. Even the truffles on fries tasted a little bland and low grade. Overall the ambiance was worth it.

A beautiful space to have dinner before a show in Hollywood! Due to typical downtown LA traffic, we ended up showing up an hour late for our reservations. We called to let the restaurant know and the receptionist was very kind and accommodating. We informed them we were running behind and they accomodated our request to rush our order. The staff of servers were very kind and courteous. The pappardelle truffle pasta was unlike anything I have every had texturally; the best al-dente pasta with a creamy truffle sauce that was bowl licking good! Our steak was perfectly cooked and delicious. The space is romantic, elegant and enchanting. I can't wait to return.

Booked a reservation here for 7 for brunch - beautiful place and the ambiance was top tier. We got seated right away. Everything we ordered was tasty, but our personal favorites have to be the truffle fries and the chicken shawarma. For dessert. we got the hot sticky toffee pudding and it was to die for - perfectly warm and crunchy on the outside. My only concern is we waited a little under an hour for our food, we didn't mind though because we spent time taking photos. We were also seated all the way in the very back corner, yet the restaurant was not busy at all - wondering why we were put all the way in the back (and no, we weren't a loud group at all)

I was excited to visit for a holiday lunch with my office colleagues. Unfortunately, the lack of decent tableside service influenced my overall rating. First, the waitress/busser was too distracted to ever clear our table. We had to ask her to remove dishes on multiple occasions. The waitress may have been overwhelmed because we had to wave her down to get anything we needed. For example, we requested a new fork, straws, drink orders, a new bottle of wine, etc. For the upscale dollar price, service should be a main priority. Additionally, the bartender was extremely slow. Waiting over 20 minutes for a cocktail was absurd. We decided to order a cocktail as soon as one arrived due to the huge delay. We made it work, lol. Nonetheless, the food was delicious. We were a party of 7 and ordered (almost) everything on the menu. Some top hits were the ribeye, ceviche, prosciutto & buratta, lemon pasta, black truffle pappardelle, hamachi crudo and broccolini. Unfortunately, the shrimp was flavorless and chewy/overcooked. Every other item was great. The desert menu was well rounded. We tasted every item and I'd recommend the chocolate chip cookie, brownie and sorbet. The churros and apple pie are underwhelming. Cara is located on a busy street with only meter or valet parking ($15). We opted for valet, they accept cash or card. I'd recommend visiting for dinner, the ambiance will be worth the visit!

I love Cara the hotel and restaurant are so chic, great place for a date or girls night out. Food is delicious but on the pricier side.

This is the place to go for the vibes. The seating is outdoors and there is a cute pool in the center, with an overall well-lit and relaxing mood. The presentation of the food was also nice! I booked this place to go to for a small birthday brunch and the staff was very accommodating, even when I had to push back the reserved time. Forewarning that since it is outdoors, it would be advised to pick a date to go when it isn't super sunny out. Regarding the food, I thought that for the price, it was a bit average. It was good, but I would have expected it to be better than my expectations. (also, the staff did seem to be a bit all over the place...not sure if it was due to the busyness during that time, but there were a few moments of miscommunication with the staff) Overall, I don't think I would come back unless for a special occasion since it is a bit pricey, but I'm glad I got to try it once! (:

Love it here for dinner! Delicious food, wonderful atmosphere, friendly staff. It is truly a beautiful boutique hotel and most importantly, the food is good!

So my very sweet boyfriend planned a date here and I loved the ambiance of sitting by the pool and the hotel in general is super pretty. The food is a little less enticing but maybe we just didn't order the best things. We got the spaghetti and the cheeseburger. The cheeseburger was really good it was juicy and the ketchup for the fries was homemade. The spaghetti had some white sauce on top that made it taste like mayo and was very small. I don't recommend that. We also got the chocolate chip cookie with ice cream and that was good but the ice cream was a little too milky and not frozen enough. The cookie was perfect though. I think i'd go back for drinks and a side but not worth it for entrees.

The most perfect romantic date night spot in west LA! The whole ambiance and vibe of the hotel and restaurant earned Cara five stars for me. Staff were so friendly, welcoming, and accommodating from the beginning. It was pretty chilly and I asked if I could be near the heater and they brought the entire heater to our table. Food was good as well, I would have opted for a red sauce pasta vs. the lemon, but if you're a fan of zesty flavors then definitely get it! Brussel sprouts honestly took the cake for me, perfect combo of umami flavor and crisp. Come here for your next date night!

Food, staff, and vibes here are amazing. The lemon pasta is one of the best things I've had at a restaurant. This is a very good spot for a date or just a simple get together and catch up with friends.

Enjoyed brunch for a friend's birthday, despite the rainy weather the staff was very kind and accommodating. The cocktails and mocktails were delicious! The bartender definitely wasn't shy! On to the food, Im a huge Mediterranean food fan and decided to try the Chicken Shawarma. Delicious! The ambiance is superb. I'm sure with great weather its even better.

This place is very nice and the ambiance has this Latin tone to it that together with the music wade it very pleasantly. We came for lunch and were sat by the pool that they have on the middle and I was very nice. The service was fast and very friendly, everyone from the manager to the runner! Very attentive and nice. The cocktails were good, I had the mezcal drink with avocado and ginger and it was delicious, and the food for lunch we got the fish tacos that were very whatever (wouldn't get again) and the lemon pasta that even though it was very greasy it was delicious, definitely coming back for the ambiance.

The food here is not that great guys it is overhyped. The ambiance and the hotel and restrooms are all pristine but the actual food and quite honestly the service is beyond lacking. During a weekday for an early dinner our waitress seemed overworked and forgot our drink order and my $80 steak was underwhelming. The fries seemed reheated or burnt in a microwave. Instead of apologizing for the delay our waitress explained that she had to make coffees for an entire table that was having a bridal or baby shower. Great please give us our check and let us leave you to the 60 women asking for coffee thanks! There are a million restaurants in and around Los Feliz and the area if you cannot give basic service then just say that.

Miami vibes in Los Angeles! I came here for my birthday, and thought it was the perfect setting for cocktails and delicious food. The bar by the lobby was a great space to enjoy drinks while waiting for guests to arrive. My group of six was seated by the pool with our own heat lamp. The table setting was luxurious with linens and silverware. Every dish was amazing. Salads were perfect--filling yet still refreshing, and the right amount of dressing. The brazino was perfectly cooked--soft and tender with crispy skin. The cocktails were beautiful, delicious, and strong. I used the $13 valet, which is not bad for LA!

Wonderful location food is exceptional. Delicious. Great chef I will definitely recommend this location to everyone best location love the amazing set up great ambiance staff was awesome I'm Glad I found this place.

Beautiful setting -- just lovely on a nice evening. Great place to have some drinks and bites. I had a mock tail that was well made -- nice balance across sweet and tart. And beautifully presented with an orchid. We tried a variety of starters which were all good: ceviche, prosciutto burrata, salad. I had the little gem salad with chicken and the chicken was nicely browned and still moist!! My friends had lamb, pasta, steak and were all pleased. The desserts were also good with the toffee one coming in a cast iron skillet and being the highlight. Overall 4.5* for food (not ground breaking, but all really lovely and well executed) and 5* for ambience. Just a great place to hang out for an evening.

I've been to Cara Restaurant for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I quite like the ambiance, very Mediterranean vibes, and decor. Their breakfast menu is quite standard as you would find at any other breakfast place. Lunch/ Dinner is definitely a hit for me. Some of my favorites; WATERMELON & TOMATO GAZPACHO, YUCATECAN CEVICHE, HAMACHI CRUDO, LITTLE GEM LETTUCE, BLACK TRUFFLE PAAPPARDELLE, GARGANELLI SHORTRIB RAGU, and BRANZINO. ENJOY! PS: Sometimes you can get lucky and find street parking, otherwise valet is available in front.

Ambience and decor is beautiful. Service was spot on. Reserved a spot a day before and was seated at a nice spot at the restaurant. Food was mediocre, everything had a tasted vinegary and little too sour for my likings. Grilled Maitake Mushrooms - overly vinegary and sour. Fortunately server opted to change it for Brussels Sprouts. Lemon Pasta - Solid on taste, but portion seemed small Roasted Scottish Salmon - Tasted delicious and it had a good balanced flavor. Will recommend for ambiance but food will need to be carefully chosen.

Service is great. They are quick to take your order and give you time to look through the menu. They are quick to grab plates from the table when it's empty. You have to order everything at once. Vibe is cute. Lighting is great for photos and dates. They don't do anything for birthdays but we ordered a chocolate chip pizookie with vanilla ice cream on it. They said they can put a candle on it for us. They don't come through and grate more cheese on your pasta. Truffle Papardelle: 4/5 You can subtly taste the truffle. Broccolini: 4/5 Nice and smoky. Brussel sprouts: 5/5 There's a little crisp. Love the vinegar/sour flavors that complimented the smokiness. Cheeseburger: 4/5 A little too sweet for my friends taste. Fries: 4/5 A little soggy, slightly crisped, lightly seasoned. Vanilla Ice Cream with Chocolate Chip Cookie: 4/5 Ice cream was good. Cookie was okay a little brittle and dry.

Cara Hotel Restaurant has woven its way into my heart as the ultimate haven for special occasions and gatherings that turn into cherished memories. With an ambiance that's practically designed for social media enthusiasts, this place is an absolute dream for snapping photos that'll make your feed shine. Whether you're seeking the perfect spot for a romantic date night or a get-together with friends, Cara Hotel Restaurant doesn't disappoint. It's like stepping into a realm where every corner is bathed in elegance and charm, setting the stage for evenings that are bound to be remembered. I've had the pleasure of celebrating various milestones here - from intimate date nights to joyous graduations and birthdays. Each time, Cara has delivered an experience that's nothing short of spectacular. The attention to detail in both the setting and the service truly sets this place apart. If you're wondering whether to give Cara a try, wonder no more. This is the place where magical moments are created and where the ambiance and memories blend seamlessly. Trust me, a visit to Cara Hotel Restaurant is an investment in experiences that will leave you delighted and eager to return.

It's a lovely restaurant with views of swaying palm trees, floating linens curtains that flow with the open air breeze and a pool running down the center of restaurant that makes it feel as if you're on vacation. The drinks are presented beautifully with flowers & garnishes. Food is is also good, the Ribeye steak is where it's at. TRUST!! This visit I was on my low carb (sans pasta lol) Low key regretted not getting the steak. Our servers were tentative and promptly. Worth a visit!

The food is always good, but this time I had a caesar salad, and it was chef's kiss. It was just enough lemon squeezed throughout the salad, made it perfect. The hostess was very accommodating, by letting us change tables closer to the poolside. The restaurant itself is so romantic with dim lights and little lights placed up and around the trees. I would recommend coming for a date night or girls night.

Absolutely 'd this place the ambience and the food was amazing beautiful outdoor dining... highly recommend for an intimate evening
