The room and view are lovely. The service and food were marginal.

The Terrace Room offers a nostalgic dining experience with stunning views of Lake Merritt, making it a desirable spot for brunch and special occasions. While the food has received mixed reviews, ranging from mediocre to delicious, the vibrant atmosphere and live music enhance the overall experience. Guests appreciate the friendly and attentive staff, who contribute to enjoyable meals, though service speed can be inconsistent. The unlimited cocktails during brunch are a highlight, complementing the picturesque setting. Overall, the Terrace Room is a charming venue that balances classic appeal with a lively ambiance ideal for celebrations and gatherings.
