Came on a Sunday afternoon for some light bites before a ginger bread house decorating workshop. It was quick to get a seat, and also quick to move when a better view came available. The service was attentive and the surf and turf tacos were delicious! Flavorful and full of goodness. I enjoyed the hard taco shell for a bit of crunch. A lot of ooey gooey melted cheese as well. A bit on the pricier side but that's to be expected at the ritz. Would dine here again!

What went well... everything! From the front entrance down the corridor and toward 180Blũ was exquisite, from the floral ambiance to the scents throughout was nostalgic. Our server was Ioana, she was attentive and engaged in conversation. We stopped in for a short lunch break and post birthday celebration on a Tuesday in February. The weather was typical. Sunny with a slight breeze and clear skies. The rosé bubbly was divine. Other worthy mentions is the swordfish dip, battered shrimp, FETA, a puff pastry with sprinkled power sugar , and BAILEYS AND COFFEE with fresh whip . The Executive Sous Chef has it going on, this place and menu is dialed in. Note: Under renovation!! Coming soon is a facelift to an already incredible establishment. Must try once or many times in your life. Do what you will with the advice bestowed upon you.

Food was ok, not great, and the service was inattentive and slow.My Ahi Tuna Ceviche was very good but the Truffle Fries were soggy. It also took nearly 30 minutes for my food to come out and the waitress called me by the wrong name a couple times throughout the process. I suspect if I hadn't corrected her she'd have billed someone else's room for my lunch.The view, however was outstanding. Unfortunately, it was so good that people were constantly coming up the stairs, taking photos in the middle of the terrace, interrupting those of us paying to eat there.

180blu, located on the patio of the Ritz-Carlton, offers stunning ocean views. The vibe is laid-back with relaxing music, and the drinks are good. It's the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy a drink with friends. i came here on Christmas Day. It's busy but good experience.

It is a casual vibe. Not really a sushi bar. Why would they call this a sushi bar? It's a deck that serves appetizers and drinks and maybe a couple of basic rolls. Not a sushi place AT ALL. Would I go back..... the view is nice. But no. False advertisement. Not a sushi place at all.

180blu has a stunning ocean view and beautiful Laguna Beach city lights at night. However, our experience was disappointing. The server warned us they'd stop serving in 15 minutes, then gave multiple excuses for us to stay when we tried to leave, which felt coercive and uncomfortable.The ambiance was poor, with extremely dark lighting and only one other party present, making it far from a social scene. The food was overpriced and mediocre--a basic burger with a burnt patty, average oysters, and unremarkable drinks. The view alone doesn't justify the high prices or uncomfortable service.

View is 1000% amazing. Come here just for the view and you will not be disappointed. As its name suggests it really does offer a 180° view of the ocean blue. The seating is self seating and we waited around for seats by the front to give us an unobstructed view of the ocean. I think that they can use a few more table servers and they seemed to be short staffed as it took a while for someone to come clean our table and take our orders. We ordered the oysters, ahi tuna tartare, surf and turf, tacos, swordfish skewers. Everything was solid. The watermelon mule is refreshing.We would have ordered more, however, the menu is brief. I would love to return!
