The Cafe At The Getty Villa

Very nice museum cafe, had a small pepperoni pizza that was freshly prepared and delicious and the Mediterranean platter which was great. Also the outdoor courtyard setting makes for great views.

The coffee was good and the seating pleasant, but the flourless chocolate cake was not fresh. And it cost $10 a piece for very narrow slices. My husband and I regretted spending $20 for a pretty bad dessert.

First time ever having a tea experience. Good tea options and tea was amazing! Cocktails available too if celebrating anything. Loved the options for lunch and sweets. Overall wonderful experience

The scones banana nut bread were warm absolutely delicious and that was just the start... the sandwiches and desserts were equally tasty! The room is in a beautiful spot. The afternoon was very enjoyable and we strolled through the gardens and museum after. It was a lovely day The Getty Villa. We look forward to having Afternoon Tea The Villa again!

It 's a lovely idea, but not especially well thought out. Obviously, the food is catered and not freshly prepared. The flavors were interesting but lacked a freshness and crunch. Time was a definite issue. You had to be there at 1pm sharp and they started hinting that you might wish to pack up leftovers at 3pm sharp. The Museum grounds were available to you with your reservation but enjoying your time having an afternoon tea felt rushed. Everyone was very nice and not pushy, but the bottom line was that you had your two hours and time was up. Not really worth the price plus parking charges.
