The food was good but lacked flavor and needed spicing. The ribs were very good, as was the pecan pie. The shrimp were good, and the sauce for the shrimp was excellent.
Parking was terrible. The streets to get to the restraunt were a pain. The first room we were seated in was very cold!! The next room was warmer but was very isolated.

The current owner Faz gave me a grand tour of the facility, and I was impressed with the history in heritage of this venue, along with the current use from an army depot to a critically acclaimed neighborhood eatery in the shadow of Stanford University

I’ve been coming to this restaurant for over 25 years. I’ve come for holiday buffets, celebrated special occasions, and had casual meals at the bar. MacArthur Park is always warm and cozy. The quality of the food isn’t as good as it used to be, but is still tasty. I also miss the valet parking.

The service from the staff was excellent. They promptly refilled our drinks as soon as they were empty and also quickly brought us seconds of delicious, freshly baked bread. I had the steak, which was well-aged and very flavorful.

The food was tasty. The wait staff was appropriately attentive to our table. The building is full of charm. It is big and spacious. On this particular cool night it got chilly by the end of the dinner.

Delicious food and excellent service, with romantic ambiance. It’s one of those restaurants that would make it hard to chose where to seat because both indoor and outdoor are gorgeous. We went there for the first time for dinner and live band music. As we were sitting at our table enjoying the restaurant we were greeted by the Chef/Owner, Mr.FAZ, and later on we even received a special treat by him. What a nice and generous gesture. I sure highly recommend this place to anyone who would like to experience fine dining and beautiful ambiance. The rack of lamb was superb. Service was excellent. I certainly will go back to MacArthur Park location and other FAZ locations again.

Wasn’t overly impressed, the food was good but the service and ambiance wasn’t up to par. Based on the price of the food, I was expecting more. Didn’t see our server very much, it took a while to get our order, I asked for a dipping sauce for our appetizer which arrived long after the appetizer was finished, also she never checked on us after we were served. The bar was not in great shape, had allot of clutter and the bar tender seemed to be stretched thin and struggling to keep up with service.

Totally unsatisfactory dining experience. It was disorganized, terrible experience I had.
We paid $192.00 each for the following:
1， The hostess did not note our reservation correctly. She went ahead and seated us, but our waiter called the hostess over to the table to prove we had paid. Ened up I had two wriskband.
2，A party of people unknown to us was seated at our table by the host.
3，When we requested hot water, we were told to get it ourselves. We were also told that there would be no hot water after 11:00 p.m.
4，There was few lipstick mark on the “clean” coffee cup.
5，Buffet $80 (official website)
COVID or not, we expect a lot more consideration for close to $400.00.

First off, this is a beautiful space. The vibe and layout is open and welcoming, perfect for small or large parties looking to share a variety of BBQ items but also filet mignon and whole rotisserie chicken. Unfortunately, my experience was lackluster. The potato skins (which is not the traditional split in half with cheese, sour cream, etc) its small bits of chopped rind and potato. The onion strings were ok, nothing special, and the artichoke was served cold versus warm from the grill which was odd. In terms of the ribs, they were not fall off the bone – a bit tough and chewy which was surprising because the rest of the taste/flavor was quite good. Mac & cheese was good but again, just ok, nothing spectacular. The desserts were a bit better. Wine choices are mediocre but a few selections that could round out a variety of food choices. So I don’t want to paint the wrong picture – the staff was very pleasant, and no rush or anything like that, but sorry, not the best BBQ as the claim is.

This has been one of our favorite “hidden” gems over the past 30 years to take the family. I think a lot of people pass over this place without realizing what a great place it is.
We always get wonderful food, and it is super affordable for the great quality. The outdoor patio is fun (and even the front porch tables) where we can take our pups. Inside, you walk into a great room with a lofty high ceiling and fireplaces, so it has a great ambiance. It’s colonial style with a beautiful historical vibe. There are extra rooms for private parties so the place can be packed, but you would never know.
The Holidays are especially wonderful because they go all out in decorating!!! We take our staff here for our end of year Dinner!!!
