I have raved about the wide range of food choices at The Getty Terrace to my friends for a while, and as a thank you to them fir some help, I took them to a day at the Getty and lunch at the Cafe. We arrived 2.5 hrs before they were to close. They had 5 hot food menus lighted up with chicken dishes, Mexican Food, Pizzas, Salads and cheeseburgers.
We waited in line close to 25 minutes with anticipation of ordering the listed Taco plate and Carne asada burrito plate.
When I got to the front of the line and ordered, the man taking the order said that they were only serving hamburgers and hotdogs as the hot food the rest of the day. The men cooking the burgers were wearing plastic gloves, but the man that was preparing the buns with the lettuce, the onions and the cheese was handling them with his bare hands.
My thank you to my incredible friends, ended up being cold ham sandwiches and pre-packaged salads, with the dressings being a dollar extra each, none included with the meal, and with drinks the total was over $100.

Read moreThe Getty Center is an amazing place to visit. This cafe however, is one of the worst place ever. The prices are exorbitant to start with (over $4 for a bottle of water). Selection of food is terrible. If you're a student on a budget, this is pretty much the cheapest place there (unless you count coffee, which isn't cheap) so you won't be able to afford it (go eat afterwards). For such an amazing museum, they did an absolute horrible job when it comes to affordable food. Their $10 sandwiches are, how shall I say, are dry...very dry. As for flavor, there is none. I ended up putting in several packets of mayo and mustard because I wouldn't have finished it otherwise. The pot roast dish (can't remember the exact name of the dish) was somewhat edible but it was close to $20 for a tiny portion. Had it not been for my family and relatives being there, I would have just gotten pizza afterwards. You can guess how expensive it was for a light lunch meal for six people. Next time, I'm making sure we get lunch before we go there and you should probably...
