Located on the ruins of the house that Orson Welles built for Rita Hayworth, the Nepenthe is as legendary as the couple. The restaurant is cosy but, curiously, the food is honest, without more. You can have a steak and French fries for about thirty dollars. In the evening it is a little more expensive, about fifty dollars for a piece of meat and vegetables. In fact, we especially want to advise you to pass there for the aperitif in order to take advantage of the breathtaking view on the Pacific Ocean from the big terrace.

Beautiful view. Food was delicious. Their chicken sandwich is 10/10. Their fries?!?!?! FRESH. Worth the 30 mins wait to be seated. Would definitely come back

Food and service are solid but the selling point of this place is the atmosphere. It is simply a gorgeous setting with phenomenal views. It is such a pleasure to get to enjoy a beverage, snack, or meal in this majestic place.

Decent food, minimal vegetarian option, beautiful place.

We will definitely visit again if we are in the area because the views are stunning; however, the next visit, I’ll likely grab a drink from the bar and sit on the benches out back to enjoy the view (and eat somewhere else).
