Quiora

Our recent dinner at Quiora in the Ritz-Carlton fell short of the high expectations. While the service was attentive and the ambiance hi-end, the food delivered only what I would expect from mediocre restaurants - at a close to premium cost. We chose the Wagyu ribeye ($85) and lamb pappardelle ($50), along with a side of Crispy Pee Wee potatoes ($18)—the potatoes never arrived (taken off of bill). Both mains suffered from a lack of seasoning; we had to request salt from our server. The ribeye raised serious doubts about its claimed Wagyu or ribeye. It lacked the marbling and deckle cap expected of a true ribeye, appearing less marbled than a standard supermarket cut (photos attached for reference). Texturally, it was disappointingly tough rather than the juicy, unctuous experience one anticipates from a wagyu. For $85, even if it were genuine Wagyu, this would represent a low-grade example at best. The handmade pappardelle showed promise but failed in execution. The noodles arrived clumped and sticky, requiring manual separation. Maybe in the attached video you may noticed that the sauce was not coated evenly. Where the sauce did adhere, its texture was pleasant, and the lamb itself was tender. However, the overall flavor profile remained bland and under-seasoned. For Quiora we had hi expectations, although we did enjoy thoughtful service, a refined atmosphere, and clear technical skill in pasta-making, we felt that at these price points, the food was “meh”. As it stands, our first and maybe only experience at Quiora was a miss.

Quiora has a wonderful view, our waiter Ian Martin was awesome. He had great recommendations, and they were all delicious. We will definitely go back!

My husband and I stayed at the Ritz-Carlton for my 40th birthday and hosted a dinner for ten friends at Quiora. To start with the positives: our server, Kennedy, was wonderful. He was warm, attentive, and offered great recommendations for the table. We especially enjoyed the arancini, ahi dip, uni pasta, and horchata trifle. Those were standouts. A few friends who ordered the pappardelle felt it could have used more seasoning, but overall the food was solid. However, there were several aspects that were frustrating. I don’t mind paying higher prices at a luxury property, but I was surprised by the extra fees that appeared on our bill. For example, there was a $6 “martini upcharge” added to each $16 martini. Since we ordered several, it would have been helpful to be informed of this beforehand. We were also charged $6 each for sides of sauce and Parmesan cheese, which felt excessive. Ultimately, the total came out to over $150 per person, and the value didn’t match that price point. We also encountered issues prior to our reservation. We originally booked for nine guests and asked to add one more when a friend flew in to surprise me. The restaurant told us that increasing the party size meant we would need to submit everyone’s orders in advance. I didn’t want to ask my guests to do that, especially for just one additional person. The back-and-forth over this became more frustrating than it needed to be, and honestly made me regret choosing the restaurant. Had I not put down a deposit I would have tried to change the venue at this point. When we arrived, the staff still seemed flustered that our party size had changed, which didn’t create a welcoming atmosphere. For the level of pricing and the setting, I expected a more accommodating and seamless experience. A simple “We’ll take care of that for you” would have gone a long way.

Incredible spot for dinner. The view, the food, and the service were all spot on. Ian was our server and recommended a few items that our family really enjoyed. Don’t go without getting the uni pasta.

Looking over the city from the roof top of the Ritz-Carlton was amazing. The servixe was top notch. Food presentation was beautiful. Falvor was good but my lamb pappardelle, the lamb shank was slightly tough and under seasoned. Noodles wer cooked to perfection. My wife had Hokkaido uni + crab spagetti and it was superb. The play on caprese was interesting with fried mozzarella. Only complaint there was the breading could have been seasoned. The star of the whole night was the smoked ahi dip. Wonderful flavor.

Truly had a lovely dinner date here! The skyline and ocean view is a magnificent treat while dining, and the staff are all so sweet and courteous. The pasta was hands down the best I've had in Hawai'i and I'm still thinking about that uni pasta, specifically. Super rich, umami, and bursting with fresh uni flavor- and the noodles were the PERFECT level of al dente texture. Such a decadent treat! I'm not usually a tiramisu person either, but theirs was notably delicious. This would be a great choice for a special occasion meal :) Plus that evening there was a high powered telescope set up and a lovely individual was setting it up so people could enjoy a peek at Saturn and other delights!

Always a wonderful experience, across several visits we’ve always had great service, delicious food, and a wonderful view!

We visited here for an anniversary and the food and service were great as always. It was or crowded that day, and we had a reservation before the sunset, so we enjoyed the nice sunset sky over our starter. This time we went with the set menu they offered, and everything was very delicious. We added Eggplant Parmesan on the side and it was on-point.

Great service by Ian Beautiful view Lighting and seating could be better. Food average. Caprese salad was basically fried mozzarella.

We stopped by Quiora on our last night in Oahu, just looking for a quiet dinner with a view -- and somehow ended up with one of our favorite memories of the trip. The restaurant itself is beautiful: open-air, soft lighting, and that golden-hour view over Waikiki that makes you slow down a little. We were seated by Ian, who was genuinely warm from the moment we arrived. He had that easygoing confidence that makes you feel instantly taken care of without being overbearing. The food was spot-on -- the pasta was fresh and perfectly al dente, and the grilled fish special that night was one of the best meals we had on the island. But what really stood out was how attentive our server was. My husband accidentally spilled wine and left some red specks on his shirt. Our server then stopped by our table and passed him a shout wipe without us asking for anything. We couldn't be more appreciative and happy with our experience here and excited to come back to try other dishes

Couldn't decide on what to have for dinner one night so I took a stroll in my neighborhood (Waikiki) and found myself being lead to my table with the most beautiful scenic view of the sunset on a pool deck. Quiora's ambiance wasn't the only striking first impression, the waiter Ian, set the tone instantly with exceptional service. Ian was knowledgeable about the menu and took note to my preference, I ended up trying their uni pasta and it was so tasty and creamy and perfectly Al dente.

Staycay for the weekend in Waiks. Early 4th of July dinner...had to go early for baby and so we could get back to watch the Hilton fireworks. I feel like there was a improvement on food...or maybe we just ordered better this time. - Uni Crab Arancini ball thingy - YUM. Baby stole my uni. - Caprese - nice and different. Probably the best mozzarella stick I've ever had. Coating was light and the cheese was delish. I didn't like the sauce though. To me that made it way too mozzarella stick-ish rather than caprese-ish. - Oxtail - hubs got this. Was yummy. He liked it. Surprised he didn't finish. Was pretty big, plus we had drinks and pupu. - Pork chop - I was back and forth on what I wanted so asked the Waiter. His eyes lit up and he completely sold me on the dish. And you know what...he was right. It was sooooo goooood. That polenta...OH.MY.GOD. YUM. Luckily I got to eat it for 2 more meals. - Brussels - probably the bet Brussels I've had. Most places it's oily and sitting in sauce. This one had choke taste, was crispy but not at all oily. Air fried? Whatevers...it was delish. I totes forgot my heels when we walked over. So my nice dress and rubbah slippahs. But no worries, since even if it's fancy, it's also not fancy. I didn't feel too out of place.

The server didn't really know the menu, so I was taken aback. It's not a big deal to me, but if you're gonna explain the menu - you should know what you're explaining. Otherwise, the view was beautiful. The restaurant is located next to the lovely pool. The food was delicious. I wish the menu was a little bigger. I think their drinks are pre-made because I wasn't able to make changes to them. I was also expecting a special dessert for my spouse, specifically for birthdays due to all of the reviews about tiramisu and anniversary desserts. They ended up getting us a gelato, but I'm not sure it was a "birthday" special. I guess it depends on when you come.

Sweet, indeed! Last night we celebrated our 27th Anniversary at this beautiful outdoor dining for the FIRST time in the Ritz-Carlton in Waikiki. The staff were friendly and incredibly accommodating especially our hostess, server Chris and manager Preston. With open sky you can enjoy the Waikiki scenery and Friday fireworks. The menu was short but spot on taste and creativity especially with my uni pasta which included crab. Chris made special accommodations with my cuisine since Im allergic to crab which I am grateful. Loved that my pasta was Al dente and the creamy sauce was just right- smooth and flavorful and the uni added that special touch- "onolicisious", indeed! It was hard to save some for our youngest son to try later. My hubby had the short rib with lentils and veggies. It was so tender and full of incredible flavors that I had eaten 1/3 of his plate (yes, it was that "ono" (delicious)! Since we don't drink (much), we didn't have a cocktail/mocktail so this round we just chilled and enjoyed the view and food. They do have a full menu of incredible spirits so this a great place for cocktail hour with sunsets, beautiful skies and cool nights under the stars. Price point is expected since it is located in the Ritz-Carlton but not super crazy like other places I've been. It's a casual yet stylish (so no come with your bikinis, slippahs and t-shirt). Dress upscale casual and you will have an incredible and joyful time. By the way, check out their sister restaurant on the same floor for a more hearty meal and incredible dessert. Manager Preston escorted us there to ensure we got a sweet table to sample their yummy- Hashi-gori....you won't be disappointed! Bon Appetito!

Had to come back again with some friends since the last time was such a good experience. We had our favorite server Ian again who did an amazing job. The food was delicious, we had the ahi dip and octopus as appetizers and for the mains the pork chop and clam vongole stole the show. We'll definitely be back soon.

The house old fashioned and buratta pupu were the perfect pau hana treat! A beautiful sunset view sitting at a high top table, great conversation, and the old fashioned here is really quite good. While the sun goes down, you are sitting directly in it, so be prepared. It is nice and quiet up at this outdoor area, Quiora is situated outdoors very nicely at the Ritz Waikiki over looking rooftops and the ocean in the distance. Dressy casual. Great service. Small but great menu options for pau hana. A couple of nice wine options but my friend and I both chose a cocktail. The buratta with arugula had a really nice, light dressing and was very delicious and refreshing. I was having such a nice time, other than our selfies, I forgot to snap photos of the food and bevvies, and only have one other to share .

Katie provided the best service as a server. She's very personable and bubbly, giving the best recommendations. All the drinks she made were a 10/10 recommend.

Great service and scenery. It was a vibe! Our server Kennedy was awesome! Highly recommend for date night. Gotta come on a friday to watch the fireworks, per Kennedy's recommendation!

Came here twice for the lunch service, both times were excellent. It appears that there aren't a lot of people that died here for lunch, but that's what attracts me to this place. You can have a really relaxing meal with friends and not feel like you have to hurry up and eat and leave. We actually spent almost 3 hours here and the waiter didn't seem to mind the smoked ahi dip was a great way to start our mail. The pasta are house made and delicious. Valet parking is complementary for four hours.

Ian was amazing along with the food was spectacular. Ian recommended the Bolognese, which was absolutely to die for. The house salad was something that I never tasted before. The avocado lime dressing was amazing.

The food was amazing! The ambiance was perfect! And the service was top noche! Thank you Ian for a great time!

Went to Quiora for my birthday dinner in the evening. The hostess greeted me by name because we made a reservation. That surprised me and I enjoyed the effort put into knowing your guest. The waiter unfortunately did not check in with us as often as we would have liked. Waited for a bit to ask for our check. The location was really nice you have a great view of the Waikiki skyline. The outdoor seating area was well maintained and inviting. The lighting could be a little better at the table as my wife and I had a hard time reading the menus. We ordered the braised short rib and the 22oz bone in ribeye. The braised short rib was good and tender but could use a little more seasoning. The ribeye was cooked to my desired temperature and once again could use some more seasoning. The sides specifically the Mac and cheese were delicious. The Mac and cheese should be its own item on the menu. Pricing was solid for what we ordered. Sadly the food took quite a while to get to us and the wife was getting a little frustrated by the time it came out. Overall a good experience with some minor hiccups.

I recently visited Quiora with a large 12 person group and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The restaurant's ambiance is great for sunset with stunning views of Waikiki... perfect for a relaxing evening. If you're there on Friday like we were, you get a view of the fireworks too! I ordered the American wagyu steak, and it was cooked to perfection... juicy, tender, and incredibly flavorful. We ordered a bunch of appetizers, 2 salads, and a couple of pastas. I originally wanted vanilla gelato for dessert, but the waiter let me know it hadn't set properly that evening, so I opted for the sorbet instead. While I was a little disappointed at first, the sorbet turned out to be light, refreshing, and a great way to end the meal. The service was attentive throughout the evening. If you're looking for a spot with incredible food, great service, and nice views, Quiora is an excellent choice. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu (and hopefully the vanilla gelato next time!)

If you're looking for a place to celebrate your birthday, here's my experience at Quiora: I went with two friends and their toddler. From the start, the front staff were warm and welcoming--they greeted me with smiles and a cheerful "Happy Birthday!" That set a really nice tone. Ambience & Family-Friendly Touches * The restaurant has outdoor seating with a beautiful view of Friday fireworks. * They even provided paper and colored pencils to keep the little one entertained--super thoughtful! * But when we asked for plastic utensils for the child, they said they only had regular ones, which made it hard for the toddler to eat. Food * Service was fast; appetizers came out quickly and were good. * For mains, we ordered the wagyu steak (medium rare). Unfortunately, it was very chewy--wouldn't recommend. * The uni pasta was the star of the night--absolutely delicious! If you don't order it, you're really missing out. Birthday Dessert This part was disappointing. I've celebrated my birthday at many restaurants, and almost everywhere (even small places) they'll give a complimentary dessert with "Happy Birthday" written on the plate. Here, they just brought out two scoops of raspberry ice cream in a bowl and said it was for my birthday. It felt underwhelming, especially since I had higher expectations for a special occasion. ‍ Service * Our main server wasn't very friendly. Once he realized we were locals, his attitude seemed to change, and he barely checked on us. * On the bright side, another server was very attentive--refilling water often and staying friendly. Bill The total was nearly $400, and we still left a 20% tip. Overall: Beautiful setting and some great dishes (the uni pasta is a must), but the steak and service fell short, especially for a birthday dinner

This was some of the best food I've had in a long time. The mahi mahi was incredible. The fish was cooked to perfection and the sauce was so so good. This was the best meal we had all trip. From the cake to the pasta to the burrata, everything here was a 10/10. The views of the ocean were gorgeous- highly recommend eating at sunset! Most of all, the service was impeccable. It started to rain while we were outside and they were so quick to move us to covered tables, to hold umbrellas so we didn't get wet, and to check in with us to make sure we were doing ok.

Follow for more rooftops on ig westave_vibes. I loved my dinner here.Perfect view,vibes of the easy breezy Hawaiian life with a touch of elegance. The hostess Lupitza(sorry if I butchered your name girl) was the sweetest person I could've came across.omg be kind to her,she does her best and makes you feel so cared for. Food was great.if you wanna hear more follow my instagram. Our waiter Ian is the best.We went on a good night because his mother was there bringing more life to this place Sucks it's only dinner time being served because them oxtails was calling my name again.lol.I wanted it for lunch the next day so I settled for the sister restaurant.I wasn't disappointed.The ritz Carlton strives for excellence and I love it.

The food was amazing! Wonderful ambiance. Kennedy did an excellent job. I high recommend dining here.

The restaurant is beautiful and quiet, super nice ambiance! We were greeted by very friendly staff members upon entering the restaurant and our server was also very personable. The food was excellent! We ordered the uni arancini, Brussel sprouts, uni and crab pasta, and the chicken. The uni pasta is more expensive than others on Oahu but they give you way more uni so I feel like the price is justified. My husband said the chicken was moist and well cooked, but nothing noteworthy. Everything else we really loved! My only small complaint is that it seemed like our food came out pretty slowly, so it felt like we were waiting long periods of time between courses. The quality of the food more than made up for that though! Would highly recommend this spot.

This was one of the best meals we had in Waikiki! The staff were super friendly, it started raining when we were there and they helped us switch to a different table out of the rain almost immediately. The food was really tasty, we had the burrata to start and it was so light and refreshing. We then had a mushroom pasta, chicken dish, and fish of the day and they were all incredible. We ended the night with the tiramisu and it was really yummy.

Located in the Ritz Carlton on the restaurant floor, with beautiful sunsets and amazing service, from the time I made the reservation Jennifer was very friendly and accommodating. The view and the service and the food is excellent and the drinks are originals. The chili clams were terrific and the bread was very good and went well with the clams and the broth was exceptionally tasty! The Caesar salad was a lot we could only finish half the plate, it was good but got pretty filled up with the clams & the bread. My chicken dish was very good it was flavorful and moist, even that I couldn't finish, the vegetables were done perfectly. My wife had the vegetable lasagna which she enjoyed a lot it was very flavorful and tasty. The restrooms are beautiful, 5 star very well kept and super clean. They have valet parking at the hotel & condominium.

It was our first time dining at Quiora, and our server and bartender, Katie, was amazing -- truly the best!

I live nearby and i don't know why I never just explored this great spot. It's a Tuesday 2 pm. And I had hi-top table facing the ocen with a experienced bartender Katie who made me a espresso martini It's sn early afternoon meal it was a hoagie with pork it was so good I was just staring at the ocean and wondering why this place is not more crowded.. I encourage anybody that lives nearby this place to check it out it's at the Ritz-Carlton that's why I think it's kind of like nobody's here but it's amazing had 2 cocktails with the best ocean views highly recommend this place

Lunch at the Ritz-Carlton in Waikiki, Honolulu, Hawaii... I went to Quiora a long time ago for dinner and kind of forgot that it was open-air dining. We were lucky to have a gentle, cool breeze. However, a couple of aggressive birds lurked around us. I received an email about the 3-couse special lunch. Making a reservation online was easy. I appreciated the reminder about the date and time. Valet parking for 3 hours was great! We just had to remember to get our ticket validated and give a tip to the valet. Sharon was the bubbly receptionist. She was so personable and even sang "Happy Birthday" to my friend! Sharon has an excellent singing voice! Royce was our knowledgeable, efficient, and friendly server. He was quite perceptive and attentive! He gave great suggestions and brought a complimentary lilikoi sorbet for my friend's birthday dessert! I ordered the (tender) Braised short rib "French Dip" sandwich and (smokey) Grilled Caesar salad. Both were flavorful and had a beautiful presentation! I was really happy with my meal!

Truly had a lovely dinner date here! The skyline and ocean view is a magnificent treat while dining, and the staff are all so sweet and courteous. The pasta was hands down the best I've had in Hawai'i and I'm still thinking about that uni pasta, specifically. Super rich, umami, and bursting with fresh uni flavor- and the noodles were the PERFECT level of al dente texture. Such a decadent treat! I'm not usually a tiramisu person either, but theirs was notably delicious. This would be a great choice for a special occasion meal :) Plus that evening there was a high powered telescope set up and a lovely individual was setting it up so people could enjoy a peek at Saturn and other delights!

We ate at Quiora over the weekend and had an amazing experience! Ian was our server and provided excellent service with delicious recommendations! I will definitely be back before our trip is over and definitely ask for Ian. Five stars for the pork chop!

Go in the daytime when you can see the magnificent ocean view. We were there after dark and enjoyed the city lights. We started with a glass of wine. They have a good selection of wine. For the appetizer we shared the ahi dip. It was good and had enough bread slices for the dip. We came because they make their pasta fresh. I had the oxtail pasta and my friend had uni and clam. Both sauces were rich in flavor. Mine was very rich and had a strong wine flavor. They were both good. For dessert we had sorbet. I would come back again late afternoon to enjoy the sunset. The water was attentive and it was nice they allowed us to stay after the restaurant was closed not to rush us. I recommend nice clothing as it is ani e restaurant.

Quiora was an amazing experience. Our server, Ian, was prompt, attentive, and elevated our dining experience way above our expectations. The food was delicious. We'll be back again!

Beautiful ambiance. Marshall was our server for the evening and made our experience great! Drinks and food recommendations Marshall suggested were spot on. We can't wait to go back!

marshall was the best!!! would definetly recommend him again as our waitor... food was definetly amazing!!!

Probably the worst service we've ever had at a restaurant. The view is great but the cocktails were horrible and the food was just okay. It was our anniversary and it was not made special.

Service was very nice and the view was beautiful. The dessert was our favorite out of all of the courses, overall the food was good. While my mind wasn't blown, I definitely would consider coming again and trying different things on the menu. The menu has a lot of options and extensive drink options!

The staff was amazing and the food was wonderful. Thanks Ian and Amber for the great drinks!

Food was phenomenal. The service was perfect, like a true team. The ambience is nothing short of spellbinding overlooking the ocean! Would recommend for any price point in Honolulu. The host is so good that you feel almost validated as a guest upon walking in, very cool, and set the room perfectly. Vibes

Quiora was an amazing experience. The food was top tier and I am already looking forward to our next visit. Our server was extremely friendly and the view was unmatched as the sun set over the horizon in the distance. 10/10 all around and this restaurant has now taken my top spot!

Our first visit and it did not disappoint! The view, food and service was amazing! Thanks so much to our server Ian for helping making our dinner experience beyond unforgettable! He was so awesome and we can not wait to go back!

Located in the luxurious Waikiki Ritz Carlton Hotel. You take the elevator to the lobby and step out into the breathtaking ocean view of the infamous Waikiki Beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and Joshua's service was excellent! The sangria tasted as beautiful as it looked. We ended up ordering 2 desserts. Happy eating

Ian was awesome! Super friendly, on top of everything, and made the whole dinner at Quiora way better. Ask for him if you want good vibes and great service

An Italian restaurant inside the Ritz-Carlton. It's a terrace restaurant, so it has a sense of openness and a nice view. The appetizer was Caprese, fried mozzarella cheese and sun-dried tomatoes. The salad was a green salad with pickled strawberries and roasted beets, and was served with a macadamia nut sauce, just like ricotta cheese. This was a delicious salad. It's a great salad for people who are allergic to dairy products like me. The main dish was oxtail pasta with a delicious ragu. Today's fish menu was mahi-mahi in a spicy sauce, served with vegetables. The service was also good. However, it was a birthday, and I went there, but it was disappointing that there was no birthday message on the dessert plate. This may have been because my partner, who made the reservation, didn't request anything. What's special about this restaurant is the handmade pasta. リッツ・カールトン内のイタリアレストラン。テラスレストランなので、解放感や景色が、よいです。前菜は、カプレーゼは、揚げたモッツァレーラチーズとドライトマト。サラダは、ピックルスイチゴ、ローストビーツのグリーンサラダに、マカデミアナッツのソースが、まるで、リコッタチーズのように、添えあります。この美味しいサラダは。私のような乳製品が、アレルギーの人には、嬉しいサラダです。メインディッシュは、オックステールのパスタは、旨みのラグーが、美味しいでした。今日の魚のメニューは、マヒマヒのスパィシィーソースに、野菜が、添えありました。サービスも、良かったです。このレストランにて、特筆すべきは、ハンドメイドパスタであることです。しかし、お誕生日で、行ったのですが、デザートのプレートに、バースデーメッセージが、無かったのは、残念でした。これは、予約を入れたパートナーが、なにも、リクエストをしなかったのが、いけなかったのでかもしれません。

We came here to celebrate our anniversary and we had a great time. The service was great and the view was amazing. Steak was cooked to my husband's preference except they sliced it, he prefers to do the cutting himself. The ambiance is perfect date nights and highly recommended.

great reviews, amazing food, great service! Ian did great! I got the crab pasta and it was incredibly fresh.

We had a great meal with a spectacular view and the best service/server! If you go ask to be sat in Ian's section he was fabulous!!!

Beautiful views with awesome service, every dish was a hit! Honorable mentions are the ahi dip and pee wee potatoes:)

Wanted a quick bite to eat for lunch and really wanted Italian, so decided to stop by Quiora while in Waikiki. The staff at this restaurant were so welcoming and friendly, it was almost scary! From the hostess to the servers, I received top notch service while at this restaurant. The ambiance was calm, quiet and where I sat, had a wonderful ocean view while I ate. Now for the food: I ordered the spaghetti and meatballs and to be honest, I was disappointed with what I got. The portion size was small enough to feed to a toddler, but the meatballs (5) were amazing! Definitely not worth $32 though. All in all, I would come back to this restaurant and try some other items on the menu. Pro tip: make sure to get a seat on the deck. The views alone are worth the price you pay to eat here! One thumb up and a high five for Quiora's! Happy eating, my foodies!

Came here to celebrate my birthday. We had the 3-course business lunch- soup or salad, main (fish or steak frites) and dessert. I have to say food was good but portion was small. We love the service. Special shout out to Sharon whose incredible deep voice made my birthday extra special with her rendition of Happy Birthday song. Ambiance is of course luxurious. Restaurant is inside Ritz Carlton Hotel. It has amazing views and the endless pools just add to the luxurious vibe.

Lunch with a view... Here and now is Quiora and you can find them in the Ritz-Carlton in Waikiki right on Kalaimoku Street which sits between Kūhiō and Kalākaua Ave and after reading Andy F's review he's absolutely right as actually finding them is the biggest challenge as validated parking is free for three hours we had to rely on directions to find them which to be honest I couldn't really tell you what floor and the amount of pools we passed along with La Vie which is another restaurant though walking past the amenities along with the stunning view of the ocean that alone has me feeling relaxed and hungry. Upon arrival we were greeted by Sharon a beaming ray of sunshine and before getting us situated asked if we wanted indoor our outside...that view OUTSIDE please! What a staycation vibe it gives you as our server Royce was excellent with the thorough knowledge of the menu items though we came for the "Quiora's Lunch Set" which is a three course set. - Iced Tea - Roasted Vegetable Panini - Garlic Truffle Fries These were my choices and the iced tea which was so nice and refreshing paired perfectly with my Panini sandwich which was filled with veggies that I had to enjoy with their Garlic Truffle Fries...along with the view...love! Thank you to the entire staff for making this lunch a fun and memorable experience and what a lovely view to just relax and enjoy. Thank you!

My friends and their other halves and I came here for my birthday. It was nice and the view was beautiful. But there were some things a that were lacking. Since we had a party over 12 people, we have to place our orders in advanced. Never had that happen before but ok we did. When we arrived we were seated at 2 different tables. I guess the space wasn't big enough to accommodate a party if 12 on one long table. Also food took a while to come out considering we had already put in out orders ahead of time. We waited an hour from the time we were seated for our food out come out. Food was ok. I did like the truffle fries were good. The view of the ocean was nice. Other than that. Food was about average.

Located inside the Ritz Carlton building. Issues: 1) we pulled up and there is a valet stand but no one comes to the one in the front - you gotta turn into the building and go to the OTHER valet stand to get service (we figured it out after waiting a couple minutes) but why put a valet stand if it's not manned? 2) took elevator upstairs and OMG - the sun beats down on you ridiculous hot. They do not offer any sun shades or any means of escaping the intense heat and this was for DINNER! 3) overpriced - we went for their exclusive Easter buffet dinner. What a disappointment. For that price - it should have been spectacular. The tables were so sparse - no one was there. I guess everyone else knew what a rip off this price is for the quality and variety of food you get/offered. Will not return to this venue.
