Why do I keep coming back to this place? The staff here is phenomenal, food always delicious, and the view and vibe is very warm and cozy. Another stay at Dream Inn hotel, and dining experience at this favorite restaurant! A huge shoutout to TRACY who was extraordinary. Her service and friendliness, and the way she describes every item for you was outstanding! Alaa, who welcomed us and had a quick chat while seating us was wonderful, meeting us with a genuine smile, he was very kind pleasant! We had the steak, the Caesar salad w chicken, we also tried the mousse cheesecake which was absolutely delicious! Now that I know the breakfast, lunch, dinner menu by heart, I definitely recommend this beautiful spot whenever in Santa Cruz!! Thanks for always making my experience so special as if it’s the first time !!

Fantastic food and service! We were lucky enough to get a table by the window and watching the sun go down was pretty amazing! I had the steak and it was cooked perfectly! They also make pretty stiff drinks! It’s expensive but this is a great place for a special occasion

I think that the details of an expensive restaurant really make the experience.  As you can see by my photos, everything was spectacular and my review stars reflect that. However, as a note to the manager, I think that the presence of clean spotless windows should be an area of focus. Walking to my table and seeing towel wiped windows and scratches looks tacky. The scratches on the plexiglass windows should be polished and buffed out daily to provide the best views for your customers.
Thank you for a great meal experience.

I don’t often give 5 star reviews but my husband and I had dinner here last night and it was divine! The view is EXTRAORDINARY so if you can plan to be here for sunset, DO IT! The cocktail menu and drinks were delicious, the staff professional and friendly. I had the fish of the day broiled over a stew of vegetables and my husband had that absolutely delicious ribeye. We ended with a mesmerizing German chocolate cheesecake! Greatest dining experience we’ve had in Santa Cruz!
