    If you come and sit at a regular table during happy hour, plan for an inordinately long wait for your drink to arrive. The bar (generally full) gets priority service...possibly because their are direct tips involved. This was a poor start to our evening.

    It took so long to get our entree that we had leave without having dinner because we had a show to go to. We booked a reservation time that would allow more than ample time to dine before going across the street to the theater. No excuse for what transpired. Won’t be back, so many other places to go that get it right.

    The Loch Bar is my top favorite restaurant this year! This is my 3rd time here and first time sitting at a table and the experience was nice and the food was AMAZING!! We celebrated my best friend’s 39th birthday and she had a great time. It was very busy but our waiter was very nice. Can’t wait to come back! I’ll probably stop in solo and sit at the bar☺️💪🏾

    Nice view of Avenue of the Arts and full of daylight. Gets a little noisy when full. Food and service are very good, although a little pricey. Brunch/Lunch menu has something for everyone.

    Amazing food! Beautiful atmosphere! Great music playing in background ! Get the fried lobster tail. Was delish. Bronzino and sea bass dishes were beyond delicious! Love the vibe. The staff was exceptional with efficiencies!! I’d go back. Very expensive!!! But if you can get to the bar early they have happy hour.

    Very pleasant at lunch, though a number of entrees were high priced for lunch. The prix fixe lunch was a great deal, but not enough options to make it viable for all.
