Overall, reviews of Pangea describe a stylish, lively setting with attractive decor and a welcoming vibe that suits girls nights, celebrations, and casual dinners alike. Guests frequently praise the food as flavorful and well presented, with standout items such as seafood and octopus, and cocktails that many find excellent, though several feel the prices are high for the portion sizes. Service is a major variable, ranging from exceptionally attentive and engaging staff who elevate the experience to periods of slow attention or understaffing that affect pacing. The atmosphere is often described as festive and upscale with good music and a warm lounge feel, though crowds and loud volumes can detract from the dining experience. Value is a common concern, yet many reviewers say they would return for the overall vibe and the quality of service when it shines.
Came for the ladies night where you can eat for free with the purchase of a drink. Experience was so so. We arrived & the appetizers were placed on the table right away before we ordered. (You get a salad & a dip plate to share - taste were mid for both). You have to choose a cocktail that's $22 (with alcohol) or $18 (non-alcoholic)(my drink just tasted like sugar). For dinner you get a choice between a burger or truffle Mac n cheese (these were ok but nothing to write home about). Then for dessert it's a bite sized cheesecake (none of us ate it bc it was so sweet & not good).
The music was loud & at the end it's a mandatory $8 tip per person. As such the cost of the meal was $33 all-in. Our server entered the tip so you can't change it. Overall it was ok bc it was a deal but the food & drink was so meh that I don't think I'd do it again.

Food was good & appealing except the polenta fries. Sliders & chicken sandwich were excellent. Service could have better. For starters explaining the menu to first time customers.
Food was delicious 😋 😍 Had the Mediterranean salad with chicken & OMG 😲 😋 one of the best I've ever had. Main course was
Mushroom Ravioli & it was outstanding 👏🏽 sauce was so good I could drink it. Our server was a sweet young lady originally from Columbia. Had & a wonderful conversation with her & I hope she gets her degree in political science & makes it to Los Angeles ❤?
We had an excellent experience at this restaurant! The food was really good. The ambience was warm & inviting, perfect for enjoying a meal with friends.
What really made our visit outstanding was the service. Elle went above & beyond-she was attentive, friendly, & made our group feel truly welcome from start to finish. Her thoughtful attention added a special touch to our evening.
Highly recommended! We'll definitely be coming back.
My first time coming here & I was WOWED! Impeccable service by Elle, she suggested best options on menu & super welcoming. Ambiance + Food is 10000 🙌🏻 a must for girls night or any celebration!
This place is made to draw you in, bright white paint contrasted with a ton of pink flowers on vines. Clearly it was my 4 year olds choice to go in, despite my objections that it was a tourist trap. We wanted to just get a quick bite to eat, well... their service is beyond slow. The hostess got us seated quickly & there were only about two other tables with people. Our waiter took a few minutes to finally come & take our order. After waiting for about 30 minutes & seeing tables that came in after us getting their food we finally asked about where our food was as it was really frustrating trying to keep our daughter occupied when we just wanted a quick bite. Finally after about 40 minutes our octopus came out. The food was good, quite good. I'd definitely eat it again at a reasonable price & a reasonable wait. Pangea has a cool atmosphere, but it is really just a tourist trap with awful service & overpriced (but good) food. The staff for the most part seemed to just be hanging out at the bar area talking amongst each other instead of tending to their tables.
