    Beautiful sunny day brunch at an outside table. The food was outstanding, my wife had the lobster omelette and there was an abundance of chunks along with spinach and tomatoes. I had the trad eggs bene and it was multo bene! The vibe was fine but adding music would make it even better

    Best place to go before or after a show at Segerstroms! The menu has something for everyone, is reasonably priced, and everything is delicious. The wine is terrific, and they have a full bar. They even comp' your parking if you have a meal! But, the BEST part is the staff: Silver Trumpet couldn't have a better wait, chef, and management. They make me happy.
    Silver Trumpet Restaurant & BarResponded on 22 March 2025

    The aquatics of your restaurant are not very good and was the only reason for not being able to provide an overall 5 star review.

    First time visit to this fabulous restaurant. Had the best potato leek soup - velvety and delicious - then a medium rare petite filet, cooked perfectly. We enjoyed a lovely bottle of Belle Glos Pinot noir. Ended our perfect date night with cheesecake… Looking forward to next time. Special recognition to the amazing attentive manager, (wish I had gotten his name) and our waitress, Valarie.

    I had high expectations based on the reviews, but unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. The place was not busy, yet the service was slow and inattentive. There was little effort to check in or ensure a good experience, making it feel like customers were an afterthought. Unless service isn’t a priority for you, I wouldn’t recommend this place based on my visit.

    Food was excellent, especially the fish. Large portions for DineOC meal. Restaurant was very quiet except for noisy parties nearby - TIP- ask for what you want (table or food); they are happy to accommodate. TIP - they validate parking for the theater, so ask before you go to get into the correct lot. DineOC meal was quite reasonable. This is the only place we go to when we go to Segerstrom/SCR.
    Silver Trumpet Restaurant & BarResponded on 8 March 2025
    Hey Anita, we're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your meal at Silver Trumpet Restaurant & Bar. It's great to know that our fish and generous portions hit the mark for your DineOC meal. We apologize if the noise from nearby parties affected your dining experience. We're glad that our restaurant's validation for the theater parking helped you find a spot. Your understanding about the seating arrangement is appreciated. We strive to make every guest's experience comfortable and we're glad we could accommodate your request. Thank you for your kind words and we look forward to serving you again. Thank you Kevin Schjei General Manager Avenue of the Arts Hotel

    The restaurant was great as we expected. Good parking with accommodations for remaining for nearby theater. Problem was Open Table reservations. I was unable to modify reservation on your website. I called restaurant twice to correct reservations. The first person didn’t make correction. The second person simply made correction and we were seated correctly.

    Hi Elaine, We're glad to hear that you enjoyed your experience at Silver Trumpet Restaurant & Bar. We're sorry for the inconvenience you faced with the Open Table reservation issue.

    Server was slow and no personality. She had asked if we were going to the play and we said yes, and then she barely came to our table and took forever to bring our drinks. There were a lot of tables outside available and the host chose the worst table in the corner that seated 8 and there was only two of us.
