"Went for dinner. The front door was wide open so you can hear sirens & very load music from the bar.

Ordered the calamari and spinach dip for apps. The spinach dip was very good. The calamari hardly had any fish in the breaded batter. For entrees ordered the BBQ Salmon. I asked the server b4 ordering if I could have my salmon medium rare. She said no problem. My wife ordered the hamburger - medium well. The kids ordered some pasta. Sal came out well done, the burger med rare. The server offered to take them back and took them off of the bill. The second time around was a charm. Both dishes were delish! The lasagna was very good. The Caribbean pasta was bland - no flavor. The Italian pasta was very flavorful. The pasta was very mushy."

"I went there expecting a traditional brunch. I was disappointed. The brunch consists of choosing one entree and endless champagne for $25. Or you may select endless champagne for $10 and pay for your meal separately. I'm looking for variety when I go to brunch. You only get what you select as your entree. That isn't brunch. However, it is a very intimate spot that I may try again but not for brunch."

"Wow, a parking lot where my Mom with her bad knees did not have to walk very far at all; excellent $25 brunch with unlimited bloody mary's (my group each had two, and in the part of L.A. where I'm from, it would have been $25 for just the drinks!); everyone enjoyed their eggs benedicts (salmon spinich and cajun crab) = thank you, Bliss 525, for making Mother's Day easy on us!!!!!! We will definitely be back!"

"Broad, reasonably-priced menu, but couldn't really get the feel of what they were all about, esp. given the setting like you're in an empty mansion and there's a giant staircase smack dab in the middle of the dining floor.

We tried the cream of broccoli soup, fish & chips, shrimp scampi, Caribbean pasta, and bbq salmon.

Elaine was our server and did a lovely job handling our group.

Oddly, the lights kept going off and on and the a/c kicked in at some point and it totally felt like the Arctic. They need to get these kinks worked out!"

"This little spot is a bit tucked away but a real gem. They have a variety of live music, depending on the night of the week and the food is definately good and priced reasonably. This place is one of my favorites for an upscale casual dinner with entertainment. I prefer to eat in the bar where I can dance to the great music. My most recent meal was barbeque salmon with amazing fresh veggies and to die for mashed sweet potatoes. Could not ask for more."

"This place has a great vibe and several seating options. The menu has a decent selection and it appears that they offer several specials throughout the week. I loved everything about the place except the food was mediocre. Presentation and effort were great, but the dishes lack flavor and pizzazz. We tried four different items: crab cakes, onion rings, seared tuna salad, and grilled salmon. Unfortunately, I can't recommend any of these items...and flavor and this place would be perfect!"

"Had a great time at Bliss. Food came out hot and fast and was fantastic. My wife had the Caribbean Pasta and I had a burger. We both love it. They make their burgers with ground short rib meat and it was one of the best I have had in a long time. Music was great too!"

"A very friendly, comfortable and beautiful atmosphere. Impeccable service and excellent food. Head waitress Elaine was incredible with a fantastic personality. Loved the appetizers of Coconut Shrimp, Fried Calamari and Spinach Artichoke Dip. Celebrated a BDay which they made very special with personal touches & incredible Sundae to finish off a great dinner. From the Cajun Rib Eye Steak, Chicken Bruschetta, Salmon and Bliss Burger, all the food tasted amazing and was prepared to perfection. They have a burger u can build yourself which was awesome. We also enjoyed listening to the blues band in the bar. Definitely a great place to spend with friends or family for any event. Looking forward to having brunch there next. My new favorite place!"

"Would not go back for dinner however the appetizers were good. The ambiance was very nice - great decor however they had live, loud music in the bar area that was distracting throughout dinner. Brought clients here for a casual dinner that started off great with awesome appetizers but dinner was a fiasco. Two people ordered salmon and the salmon wasn't fully cooked, this was taken back to the kitchen and returned within two to five minutes after being microwaved. The server asked if everything was cooked now when she came back to the table and to keep room for dessert since it was on the house. Needless to say we didn't have dessert and had to speak to a manager to regarding entire experience."
