Delicious food, tasty drinks, nice ambiance and view of California adventure and the firework show. A little pricey but expected given the area. They do not have a kids menu but accommodated with a cheese pizza for the kid in our group.

Amazing creative food! Great service (Sue is awesome). Tangerine adds an automatic 18% gratuity which in our case was definitely justified because our server was great and I even added extra tip but gratuity should be left to the diners’ discretion based on their experiences with the server. Also the hotel have the restaurant validate parking for only two hrs which is inadequate between finding parking, walking in, walking out, finding the car, reaching the exit, and a leisure holiday meal. Should be able to get validation for three hours at least. Otherwise the food is delicious and creative. The salads are absolutely amazing. Our second Christmas there and will be back

By far my favorite restaurant in Los Angeles and it didn’t disappoint once again! My visiting mother from Florida thoroughly enjoyed it and the food, service, and ambience could not have been any better, especially for a Christmas Eve dinner. Great value for the quality!
