VUE Bar + Restaurant — Restaurant in Long Beach

The worst experience I have ever had at a restaurant, happened to be at this awful establishment on Christmas morning. Ordered pancakes, which I thought would be pretty simple, but turned out it is hard to cook them. They came out smelling like batter. After examining them, I was able to peel-in-half to see the inside not even remotely cooked. I politely realized the mistake and asked for some new ones hoping for a change, but boy was I wrong! After the waiter gave me the look of, "Stop being a baby and eat the batter-cakes", he brought me out a new set of nice and much warmer pancakes. My hunger was really setting in at this point and as I was biting, right before that first grip of pancake with my teeth, I recalled such a familiar smell, the batter. The chef or whatever you could call someone with these pancake skills definitely needed to be removed from their duties. My family went again the following year only to give me bad stories after I refused to ever go there again. If I ever go back there it is only under the assumption I won't be charged and I get to make...

At a glance it doesn't seem like much from the outside. In fact, I did not know about this place until I went to a Yelp event here. It is a bit bigger than what it seems from far away. NO, you don't have to be staying at the hotel in order to dine in. You just need to park and take the elevator from the hotel lobby all the way up.The food itself is  delicious. However, make sure to bring some money because this restaurant is not just some old wanna be restaurant. The food is great though: definitely recommend the  fried calamari(average price). The pricing as stated before, so not cheap, however, some of the things are very reasonable with today's market. The staff is great. They make sure to make you know that you've been noticed since you enter their restaurant and it feels like a laid back type of restaurant. The place is clean and their bathrooms even have mouthwash HA! Would definitely return and you should check them out yourselves and then follow our instagram travel vlogs...

The View was great and the atmosphere is Chill. the bar lighting is a great enhancement for the view that is offered. The drinks the drinks are kind of expensive I had a Bailey's and coffee and it was twelve bucks the side dishes are kind of expensive two sliders for 12 bucks and they were tiny the macaroni bikes were good the sriracha sauce was bomb. The plate of salmon though was terrible and should have sent it back except for the fact that I didn't want my girl to be distracted for this dilemma. It was a try piece of salmon the potatoes were hard to even keep on my Fork they were so lumpy and dry the asparagus was $5 extra. $34 for this pathetic plate of food that I told them we were splitting so you think they add a little more presentation everything was microwaved and just throw it on a boring plate. No lemons on the side no tartar sauce nothing offered although I must say our server was attentive. I would recommend this place for the view and the drinks but not...
