I do not recommend this restaurant. The service and food were awful. We were there 2 1/2 hours. Two of us had the Ultimate Tasting and 2 of us had the Tomahawk steak. The steak was the first item served. The steak was raw and was ordered medium rare and we had to send it back. It took another 30 minutes to get the salads and appetizers. Two of us had the Ultimate Drinks but that took very long to get. I didn't get my main dishes until 2 1/2 hours later and by then I didn't want to eat because I was exhausted from waiting so long. All of the food was cold. I complained about the poor service and was told that the kitten was short by 4 people. The bathroom was filthy. No toilet paper and paper towels. The waiters kept dropping and breaking plates all around us. You could tell the employees were pissed off. No one smiled or seemed pleasant to the customers. We were there to celebrate my son's 33rd birthday. All they served him was a stale chocolate cake that look like it was bought at the 99 cent store. We sat outside and there was poor lighting. We had to turn on phone flashlight to check the food because it was poorly lite. This only items that were good were the mushrooms, creamed spinach, and sangria. It was not worth the $400 we paid. I will never go back to this restaurant.

What a great evening. I think my experience was a bit unique. Friday 6pm before Mother's Day. We got lucky to be the only reservation... ya the only people in the restaurant. Completely dark room with us in the center celebrating Mother's Day. I'm shocked they stayed open for us. They truly made it special for my wife. Our server was amazing and attentive, she went out of her way. Brought my wife chocolate, wrote her a Mother's Day card and guided us through it the experience. Food I would give 4 starts, it was flavorful and presentation was great but just a bit too over sauced for me personally.

The food and service were both excellent. The show was okay - its fun at the beginning but the story and graphics are sorely lacking. We knew the price ahead of time - about $150 per person plus beverages. The wines (only 2 available unless you purchase the wine flight) are $23 (red) and $19 (white). You don't know this because you don't get a menu with prices. In addition, they slapped on a 33% "service fee" on top of the dinner. They claim it is not a tip and ask you to also leave a tip with the lowest suggested tip of $61.20! Sooooo, first of all, what they claim is a 20% service fee is a 33% service fee (someone flunked out of math or is just blatantly trying to rip you off, which seems more likely). This service fee is mentioned no where - no where on any of the restaurant info. And then, the suggested tip included tipping on an amount that INCLUDES the service fee (so tipping on a tip). It's too bad because what had been a pretty fun date, ended up making us feel like they were picking our pockets and trying to rip us off in a disgusting money grab. Very disappointing.

Great survive. Great food. I highly recommend this establishment I'm new to the area so it's nice to find a good spot right away

Summary: Our dinner on a Thursday night was $149 per person plus $50 wine pairing. Excellent service, unique experience with Tablemation, and great food! We ate very last crumb on our plates and left feeling full and content. Details... Made a reservation on Open Table for a Thursday night for our anniversary. Prices may differ depending on the day you book. I appreciated the whole menu displayed on the website so we could anticipate the 4 courses. We planned to arrive 30 minutes in advance as they suggest, especially in case there was traffic! We pulled into the SLS Beverly Hills and it's valet only. The cost of valet was $20 for 3 hours with restaurant validation. We entered the hotel lobby which had beautiful florals for a photo which the staff kindly took for us. Staff all around the hotel seemed especially friendly and attentive which we really appreciated as we had to ask for directions a few times to the restaurant. The "Wasp in the Wig" speakeasy is where we entered past the elevators and "through the looking glass" aka the mirrored room and entryway. We were told that although our reservation was at 6, they would seat us at 6:20p and to find somewhere comfortable in the speakeasy and order a drink if we'd like. We found a nice booth and we enjoyed trying the Gin Garden cocktail, closed our tab, then around 6:20p we asked if we should now be seated and they promptly led us to the actual Le Monde restaurant. On the way through the back of the speakeasy we're the restrooms which were huge! We were the only table for that seating time so it was cool to have the whole space to ourselves! Felt very special. The staff here was also so friendly and congenial. Everything was served promptly on very nice plates and every dish tasted really good! I was surprised by the tuna tartare and the dessert the most because I really enjoyed them! For the dessert there are floral notes like rose water sprayed over the dessert and lavender, and I usually don't like floral flavors, but this wasn't overwhelming at all and it was so good I ate every last bit! The macaron was so yummy too! I had the wine pairing for an extra $50 and the pours were generous! So worth it! After my cocktail and 4 more drinks at dinner I was feeling great! The Tablemation was cute and entertaining since it was something new for us. It filled in the time between the courses and made for some fun Instagram/TikTok content. Kids would probably find the jokes funny. If there was a new menu and Tablemation I would return with friends! Parking validation was done back at the speakeasy host stand and we also were able to get change for tip at the bar. Our car was brought around very quickly and we could pay the $20 charge on our credit card.

Cute pop up restaurant with a 4 course animated course that will only be here for another 3 months. Don't use Google maps to navigate there or you'll be taken to 7-11 lol. Overall the animation was a fun experience, the food was okay. Love the cute dessert at the end, but my steak was overcooked cause it came out almost well done :( . Also, our seating was at 8:30pm but they told us to come earlier 8pm and needed up seating us at 9pm. Still a cool experience

Made birthday occasions that much more fun and exciting!! Loved the visuals of the place along with the playing of the food. Decided to get the wine pairing with each plate and honestly was not disappointed. Pleasantly surprised considering how many individuals were disappointed reading the reviews. Either way had fun and loved the wait staff as well, great service and definitely worth going at least once :)

Great food, great service awesome atmosphere with the projector overhead showing a cool show. It's pricey but you get what you pay for here. Stop by the bar in the hotel for ALSO amazing service. Thanks Carlos

Unique 3D dining experience! They serve a 4 course meal with wine pairing and a cute animated projection on the table. Food was solid but animation was a little cheesy. Different and creative concept though!
