"This was just plain fun. The service was great. The food was fine, not remarkable, but just what one expects from Trader Vic's. The drinks were fun and potent. Sitting outdoors looking at the enormous Beverly Hilton pool enjoying a bit of nostalgia could not make for a better night."

Overall Rating

(Fair)

"I didn't know it has downsized and is now inside the hotel. It's more like a bar than a restaurant now. The food still tastes great but service is only fair. It's really nice that they kept the older servers though."

Review 4 for Trader Vic's Lounge - Beverly Hilton

Overall Rating

(Poor)

"Very disapointed in Trader Vics. It was very noisy could not have a quiet conversation with out yelling. Service was extremely slow. The food was really bad I could have gotten a better steak at Sizzler. If you want to have a good dining experince at Trader Vics go to the one in Atlanta where serive is great,and food is fantasitc. In LA or beverly hills. there are a lot better choices for the money for fine dining."
