Our server, Rick, was AMAZING. Knowledgeable, kind, funny, honest, and above all a pleasure to experience! His recommendations were delicious and he made us feel so special. Thank you Rick! See you soon!!

So let me just start by saying I REALLY wanted to like this place. I try not to write bad reviews unless absolutely necessary. But I do try to approach Yelp with some fidelity to its purpose. Also, let me just say, this won't be a bad review because it honestly wasn't bad... it just wasn't great. So let's start with the good. It really is a beautiful space. It's both upscale and relaxed. It's comfortable in the nicest way possible. A great place to catch up with friends. Also the service is great. Shout out to our server, Jose. He was phenomenal. Made sure to check-in but didn't hover. He definitely made the experience comfortable. If service and ambiance were the only qualifiers, I'd happily give this place 5 stars. Unfortunately the food was a bit underwhelming. It did, however, start off well. They provided an amuse-bouche which was a nice touch. I wasn't expecting it so I ate it before taking a picture or even getting clarity on what it was. A blue cheese stuffed grape tomato is likely the best description I can provide. Suffice it to say, it was tasty. We ordered the baked onion dip for a starter. This was the star of the night. The bread, some sort of pillowy pita, was insanely good and the dip was so flavorful. I would come back just for this. For mains we ordered the pork chop (which came highly recommended), the burger and the truffle orecchiette and cheese. It was fine. All a bit bland but a bit of a let down. I'm willing to try this place again. It really is a beautiful space and the menu is seasonal so perhaps I'll find something I like better. Again, not a bad experience just not a particularly good experience. I think 3 stars is about right.

Run don't walk for the best food and the most spectacular service in town !!! If you are lucky enough to have Rick as your waiter you will quickly understand the nuances of Chef's masterful dishes and be hard pressed to make a decision! we decided to order multiple dishes to share and that was the ticket !! Fabulous fare in a beautiful setting and the best and most engaging service ever ! We can't wait to come back ! Thank you Chef & team & Rick !!! Simply awesome !!! Thank you !!

Service was super great even for my large party. The food was good, but they were out of a lot of the specials. Parking was valet, but you can get validation at the resturant!

RICK deserves an honorable mention. He was an incredible waiter and had wealth of knowledge about the menu. The breakfast sandwich was divine. Tea was freshly brewed, Colombe coffee, all homemade dishes.

I dined at the Mayor's Table yesterday and had the time of my love. The food was beyond amazing, their Sous Chef Escobar was super kind, helpful and his food was so beyond delicious. Our server Gina was so kind also! She def is a star cause she was selling us on these incredible food and wine options. The restaurant is such a vibe too, I definitely recommend for date night.

We had Rick as our server for brunch. He was very helpful and knowledgeable about the menu and provided excellent recommendations. He made our dining experience much more enjoyable. We enjoyed the lobster crepes and lemon pancakes.

This is why I don't use Yelp. Just here to leave a scintillating review for the deserving. This overall rating is a total inaccurate depiction of this restaurant. I suppose, selfishly, that it's to my benefit that I'll have this place for a little while until it blows up! 1. RICK the server and human being is fantastic. He embodies everything awesome about what a dining experience should be: a sincere, solid individual that went out of his way to ensure that we had an excellent experience from beginning to end! 2. The food was absolutely freaking delicious. Gonna be pretentious for a second but that comes from an ex-OC'er-now-New-Yorker (10+ years now). Mom had these insane fluffy pistachio/lemon/basil oil/ Chantille Cream/crack pancakes, and I had the Steak and eggs. Chef's Kiss* 3. We brought my service animal. We reserved an area on the patio and the hostess kindly informed us that we were welcome to dine in. So kind. 4. Ambiance is super chill, classy, beachy... just perfect. 10/10 experience. I officially found our mother/daughter weekend brunch spot, so we'll be back to see you soon, Rick! About to go leave a review on Google, now because it's more reliable...

Great food and service. Great burger and Waygu flat Iron steak. Doesn't feel like a hotel restaurant. Service was very pleasant.

Wow I don't know what we did to receive such outstanding service. I enjoyed a beautiful dinner with my boyfriend last Saturday. Our server was so kind and made great suggestions. We both enjoyed a delicious sour. We were treated to a fried I think Panko Shitake Mushroom shareable again compliments of the chef! I ordered the Roasted chicken that literally melted in my mouth. He ordered the salmon which was equally divine and man oh man we were so happy with our date night experience here ! I look forward to coming back for date nights and I'll definitely be sharing my experience with my clients ! Thank you

Celebrating Christmas Eve Brunch at the Mayor's was incredible. Not only did they have the largest selection of top-quality foods, but their service was fantastic! It was all you can eat, and it was hard to stop devouring plate after plate. They had really refreshing iced tea with rose water in it. I didn't expect to see an ice sculpture as their centerpiece. I hope to come back again soon, as it was quite the experience.Vegetarian options: A lot of great optionsKid-friendliness: They offered a reduced price for kids, and they loved the experience!

There are some options on the menu for sure. However a lot of them are very similar. Eggs meat, toast and potatoes is $20. So it is a bit pricey as I found other diners to be a better option for basic breakfast. Had some seasonal items with fig or pumpkin but those are not my preference. They were 6 of us. No one got them. Only 1 would go back. But that's us.

I like it! The service was great, the breakfast delish and the atmosphere could not be better. Loved my mimosa, screwdriver and extra (extra) crispy bacon. The only reason for minus a star because the kitchen switched to lunch early and we couldn't have pancakes. But alas, we survived and had a great visit. See you soon!
