Castaway Restaurant & Events Burbank Reviews
The food was really decent.
Not worth the price but maybe it's including the atmosphere and view! Wait staff were amazing. The reservation mandate is a joke. Made reservations for 6pm for the sunset view and didn't get seated until almost 715!
Worst service ever.
Gave us the wrong menu to start instead of the dine LA menu which was the same items but half the price. Then subsequently when we discovered this they said they had to up charge us to switch. They forgot multiple of my girlfriend's drinks, and
This is my wife's and my favorite spot.
The staff is really caring and go above and beyond during your visit.
This is my favorite restaurant in LA but my last experience
This is my favorite restaurant in LA but my last experience was not the best. I was there Sunday 6:30 pm with my wife to celebrate our 3 month wedding anniversary. We had a booking for 6:30 pm but we were seated at 6:45 pm which is okay. At 6:40 whe
This is a one of a kind restaurant here in LA.
I would put it in my top 5 favorites if I'm being honest! The views, the ambience, and service are fantastic. You can't go wrong here. Food and drinks are also fantastic. Even the brunch is amazing!

We normally stop in for dinner during Christmas whenever we're not traveling. It's easy, don't worry have to clean up and it's always good. That's a win win. This visit, we had a reservation for an early dinner for a friend

Beautiful place with amazing views! It has been renovated so is even better now. I only went for their mimosas but I will be coming back for brunch or dinner soon. The service was great!

We recently visited Castaway in Burbank for a special lunch, and overall the experience was just okay, especially considering the price point. First off, the road up to the restaurant was closed on one side due to construction. We drove all the way
Went there yesterday noon to celebrate my friend's birthday.
Ordered the drink "Love at the first sight" After I took a sip of it, I saw a fly in it‼ Jesus Christ‼ I called the server to come over to show it to him 3 times. Finally, he came after drinking up his coke. I showed him the Fly. He Did
I/we will never ever go there again.
My husband and I went in this afternoon for drinks after having a big lunch elsewhere. For starters there is no self parking which is a joke, it's only valet. My husband has a handicap liscense plate and wanted to park his own vehicle in the han
It has a beautiful view and fun night vibe.
Really creative drinks and great food with great presentation.
Went here after years.
Miss the Creekstone Tomahawk but everything else was great! Service however, was downhill. Didn't even get a water refill the whole time. Also when I RSVP'ed I indicated its a Birthday and I wanted to request outdoor seating, they didn

The atmosphere & food was good.
However after we left, I noticed on my itemized receipt they/server or manager padded my bill by $60. 2 of the ladies in my party had the small $50 filet but were charged $80 each. I did not notice this until we left, otherwise I would have has a c

Oh how I looked forward to my anniversary dinner with my husband. I had heard this place was renovated since I'd been there many years ago. We make a reservation at 7:30 pm and arrive a few minutes early. Right away we noticed the huge crowds

Castaway is located in the beautiful hills of Burbank overlooking the city; our reservation was right before sunset and it was a beautiful sight; our waiter Lance was prompt, friendly, provided excellent recommendations and his service was excellent;
Went during brunch time.
So good. Food is amazing you'll get full big portions Service was good Views and outdoor seating is great Love how they have the fans and water mist on for hot days Women restroom was dirty
Good views, bad booking experience
Good views & friendly staff, although can’t book tables for outside and poor communication. Regardless of booking in advance, expect to wait up to 2 hours if you want to enjoy the view.

We visited today with family, it was the second time,we really like the atmosphere and food and especially the view. What made me write was the service, especially the girl who served us, her name was Shante. I have never seen such professional servi
Delightful views and delicious appetizers for sharing
We had a mostly delightful time at this beautiful restaurant! We were seated at a tiny table outside, but it was far too cold and windy so we moved indoors. I thought it was a bit strange how we asked an employee to move tables and they told us to go
View cannot compensate for numerous failings
Too many problems to make up for the stunning view. (1) Despite having a 1pm reservation (on a Sunday), we were not seated until 1:52pm because we wanted to sit outside. (2) I ordered the quiche only to be told they were sold out. (3) ordered chicke
AVOID!!!!
Let me start by saying we went to Castaway almost 2 years ago to the date. Great experience! So we went back. Second time around, not so good. Let me say that I did email the restaurant about our experience BUT no reply. Anyway, restaurant seem
Friends & Family Night
Overall, it was a pleasant experience. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with soft lighting and comfortable seating, making it easy to relax and enjoy the meal. The staff were friendly during the visit. The view was nice at sunset.
Bad communication
The food was fine. Service was fine. The issue I had was 90 min table limit that was NOT specified when I booked. It was extremely embarrassing to be told to leave with a big party. Had I known about the 90 min, I would not have reserved.
Miss for us, might be worth a second shot, watch for expensive up-charges.
Hard to deny the views or the drink menu, they were the highlights. The charcuterie appetizer was solid as well. The main issue here was there were no fans outside and air was dead, and the sun was beating down, and the flies were abound. It's a
Very impressive
Soooooooo I have to give Castaway a huge amount of credit. When I visited this beautiful restaurant a few years ago I was underwhelmed compared to the first time i visited. It seemed their service and food went downhill or maybe, it was just a bad ni

We had a table for 14 for a customers appreciation dinner. Fixed menu: after 2 and half hours we were still waiting for our main course and our customers started to leave. One told us a few days ago they had to cancel their main course for the same r

We were here last weekend for the Fatyers Day brunch.
I gave that review 5 stars. Tonight was a total disappointment. We arrived at 7pm for dinner, waited about 15 minutes to be seated. Our server was really fun, upbeat and personable... The food was terrible. My rare steak was well done and brown insid

The view is gorgeous But the food is lacking We ordered 4 different dishes and they all lacked flavor. The worst part is the huge bill for a flavorless meal. The steak was chewy, terrible. My family and I went for Mother's Day and are very disappoi
Had a wonderful birthday brunch at Castaway.
The food was good. The service was excellent. We got a table outdoors on the patio and the view was beautiful.

We went to Castaway's today for lunch - at 12:20 pm there were only 2 other cars in the parking lot. The host at the front (M20's) was rather snooty - and the restaurant only had 2 tables occupied. We got a good window table with a great view. Our

This place was so beautiful! The view felt like I wasn't in LA. The staff were so kind as well. They asked us if we would like to be seated inside or outside when we got there but we didn't realize they didn't have a ramp for the patio. (Please con

Beautiful place Quality has its ups and downs Menu
Beautiful place Quality has its ups and downs Menu honestly is boring But the views are amazing
Besides the view, there's nothing to write home about.
The food is only so-so, and the service was terrible. We were asked to order a drink without a drink menu. They forgot our drinks, and it took them 20 minutes to get our bill.
Food great, cocktails amazing.
Had the Shiso Vain, and others had good ones too! Sides were amazing; my steak was a tad overcooked.
Visited this location on May 10, 2024 reservations for 8 PM.
Service was extremely slow numerous food items were delayed. I was celebrating my mother 64th birthday on the day. Food was OK ordered numerous appetizers no flavor. Towards the end of the night, I ordered a cake, and waited approximately 25 minutes

Love this place! So pretty and spacious with a great view.
The food was good - we really enjoyed the lobster mashed potatoes, the kids' chicken tenders, the warm seafood tower, and the crab cakes. The truffle popcorn chicken was ok, as were the fancy fries. But service was amazing! We had a great time and wo
Connect with users posting reservations for Castaway Restaurant & Events Burbank

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Castaway Restaurant & Events Burbank at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Castaway Restaurant & Events Burbank page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* EternalAnt36, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* EternalAnt36 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to EternalAnt36 for any questions Peter may have as EternalAnt36 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* EternalAnt36 now uses their connections at Castaway Restaurant & Events Burbank to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If EternalAnt36 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, EternalAnt36 receives the $200 reward which is credited to EternalAnt36's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Castaway Restaurant & Events Burbank!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
