It wasn’t busy and we had a reservation for our party of five. The hostesses were gracious, asking us if we’d like to be seated at their Library table, which was perfect - appropriately lit on the dimmer side, beautifully decorated with amusing Halloween pieces, including some artwork instantly recognizable as from nearby Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion. Waitperson Tony was cordial and attentive, commenting positively on our drink and appetizer selections - an Old Fashioned, a gin drink called a Cat’s Claw, sweet bread and a pork belly dish called Pig Candy. Entrees ranged from Salmon, their self-described #1-chosen Beef Short Rib, a chicken salad and prime rib sandwich which looked like a robust cheesesteak. Everyone in my party said their choices were delicious, and my short rib was tender, tasty and well-complemented by mashed potatoes, cooked carrots and onion straws. I chose the place because I was dining with family and the restaurant occupied the former location of a liquor store where my late brother worked and managed for several years. With some decorations taken from the former liquor store, our dinner at Bosscat served an homage to my brother. I now live in Florida, but everyone at our table said they would return. Sorry, we didn’t take pictures.

Second time here and I absolutely love this place. Both times here the management has interacted with us to make sure that our experience was up to expectations. The food was absolutely amazing. I am already thinking about what I will be having the next time I come back. And to top it all off… the apple pie! Oh my gosh! Soooo good. Can’t wait to come back. Great ambience and people watching.

Sometimes a sequel doesn't work or come near as good as the original ... but in this case it works ... almost like face a facelift and everyone says you look fabulous ... and dinner was fabulous !!

Always a wonderful time at Jolie. Each time we go, the view is overwhelming as well as the delicious entrees. Surprisingly, there are many menu items that are very reasonably priced for such a high end establishment.

To put into words describing our experience with the entire team at Silver Trumpet; Bravo. Each staff member from bus person, to server, to the Chef, to restaurant management was fully engaged in our dining experience. Our server Tommy was spot on with beverage and water service without being disruptive, and was pleasant during our exchanges. The blackened shrimp with the green harissa sauce was superb. I would put it up there with Silver Trumpets noteworthy lamb rack. I personally enjoyed the Prix Fixe menu selecting the bone-in chop. We sing your praise Silver Trumpet, well done, well done.
