Great ambience! Sat at the bar because it was a busy time but all the window seating looked lovely and intimate. There is also seating by a fireplace which I would love to try when I come back. Bartenders were all friendly and checked in consistently. Food was brought out timely and was pretty good. I had the Maplewood and old fashioneds for drinks, chicken for dinner and cheesecake for dessert. Bartender recommended it and I will do the same.

I was here once before in the evening and it was spectacular! I came alone as a single woman and I had an amazing time on a weekend evening. It was very lively…and I just had cocktails which were delicious. The vibe was cool and upscale. Today I came with my husband for a beautiful Sunday brunch. We made reservations last minute and even though we had a table, we sat at the awesome bar. I ordered the lobster truffle eggs Benedict, and I have literally never ever ever had a better eggs Benedict of any type in my entire life. The lobster was finely chopped up, the English muffin was not hard and easy to slice through, the béarnaise sauce was flavorful but not too overwhelming, and the truffles literally made my mouth orgasm. My husband had the bananas foster French toast which made me feel like I died and gone to heaven. I am including pictures from both visits. This morning it was a little overcast with a marine layer so I wasn’t able to take any good view pictures but the view on a normal day is spectacular. Enjoy this hidden gem 🎉🎉🎉

The ambience here is exquisite. The view of the Santa Monica beach from the top is great. Their French toast is really good. Would go here again!

My sister and I were staying at the Huntley on our trip to Santa Monica. Naturally we decided to have breakfast at the Penthouse. The view at the top is wonderful. We were seated by the window with a view of the beach and the surrounding city. I definitely recommend a window seat. The food and service were wonderful. The portions were generous and filling. I got the 3 egg omelet and it came with potatoes and an additional side- I chose the blueberry Muffin. My sister got their rendition of salmon avocado toast. If you like salmon and avocado toast you really can't go wrong with ordering this. Overall the experience here was great and I would recommend stopping in if you are staying at the hotel.

Not really a question.

is there valet parking, or where do you park?

Marion Hogue | Sep 1, 2019
Adam Markman | Sep 1, 2019

There is valet, but not free. Not sure what cost is but would have to be at least $15 I'm guessing. Prob best to just park at a meter nearby, 3-5$ per 3 hrs

Can you do 40 for Brunch?

JANICE | Sep 1, 2018
