Castaway

Visited Castaway Burbank. The view is definitely one of the highlights of the visit. Perfect spot for a special occasion or just enjoying a great atmosphere. Started with the popcorn chicken, but honestly, I didn’t enjoy it. It was mostly breading and barely any chicken so if you’re looking for solid protein, I’d skip this appetizer. The Parmesan fries were really good, crispy , and flavorful, especially paired with the shallot sauce that comes with the steak. As for the steak, I ordered it medium, but it came out undercooked in the middle and had several chewy pieces. It might’ve been great if it was cooked properly, but unfortunately, this one missed the mark. I’d still consider coming back to try other dishes. The view made it a pretty good overall experience, even though the food was just ok

Food and drinks were delicious. We had the steak progressive, Caesar salad, and lobster truffle mashed potatoes. Steak was cooked perfectly. Wish the potatoes had a little more truffle but otherwise excellent. Service was very good and I didn't feel rushed. The patio was beautiful and the music wasn't too loud. The tables are a little packed in but no one was tripping over us. Plan for an $11 valet. This was an excellent date night and I would definitely come back.

My bestie and I came here for Dine LA and a time was had over some delicious food!! We started off with some delicious cornbread and ordered the seafood towers for apps. The shrimp was huge!!!! For the mains, we got the short rib with mashed potatoes and and broccoli. The meat was good and was tender. For dessert, we got the chocolate coffee cake with ice cream. The cake is okay but I would’ve preferred chocolate instead of toffee for the filling. The ice cream was perfection tho!! The speakeasy bar is super cute and I would love to check it out with a date. Claiming it into existence!!!!

We celebrated my wife’s birthday at Castaway, and it could not have been a better choice. The view was absolutely stunning, setting the perfect atmosphere for such a special night. The food was flavorful and beautifully presented, but what truly made the evening unforgettable was our server, Jonah S. He went above and beyond, was very attentive, thoughtful in his recommendations, and genuinely warm in his approach! His service elevated the entire experience and made us feel truly celebrated. Castaway delivered on every level, and thanks to Jonah, it was a night we’ll always remember. We can’t wait until our next visit!

We loved it!!! The view was gorgeous viewing the whole city and a gorgeous sunset! We ordered the steak and a salad. We got their fries and also some mocktails! Our server Branden N. always was ready and checking in on us and really just made the whole experience amazing. He made our dinner so wonderful and brought us anything we asked for. He knew the menu very well and even recommended us specific meals. Honestly he deserves a raise because he made our whole dinner amazing with small talk and starting a conversation. Totally would recommend this restaurant for the atmosphere and the food because wow I need to come back for both! Everyone was so kind!! <3

My husband and I have been wanting to try this restaurant for a while - and he surprised me be taking us for our anniversary! The view is obviously beautiful and the overall vibe is fantastic. Even though it was crazy busy with private parties, a wedding, and tons of guests, it didn’t feel overwhelmingly crowded at all. There was a little bit of a wait even with a reservation - I would suggest getting there earlier than your res time, especially if you are trying to catch the sunset. The hostess was very sweet, but when we were sat at our table we were a little concerned/mildly disappointed. We were sat next to a heavily trafficked staircase, where our chairs were backed up against a wall and a poll. My husband has very long legs, so he had to sit at an angle in order to be moderately comfortable. We also moved the table out from right up against the staircase which also helped. Since it was a special night he was contemplating asking the staff for another table - but I’m SO GLAD he did not. Our server Teddy R., turned it all around as soon as he came up to us to start our dinner service! He was jovial, sweet, and had THE BEST dinner and dessert recommendations all night long. He asked if we were celebrating anything, consistently checked in on us, and made the night feel light and fun! The dinner, drinks, and dessert were of course delicious - but Teddy wrapped it in a bow and put sparklers on it, making our anniversary dinner feel so incredibly special, no matter where we were sitting.

A truly hidden gem at the peak of Burbank. Castaway also known as Castaway- Burbank is a lavish modern epic den with a beautiful bar, event space, lobby, restaurant, patio, parking and walk up. Photo ops galore, incredible signature cocktails, a versatile menu including vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free items. Our server Tyler was/is 10/10 amazing and helped me navigate as a plant-based brunch loving foodie while we celebrated a surprise birthday for my friend Clifford aka Cliff. Enjoying the Crushed Avocado Tartine (Country Toast starter) and sampled a few amazing beverages with our group. The presentation, the layout, the views and the service were all next level. Reservation are strongly recommended as is inquiring about their Speakeasy (the Green Room ;).

I have been trying new steakhouses and I can finally say I found another 5 star, along side boa. This place was incredible. We made a reservation and was seated almost immediately, we had our server Shauntae come to our table within minutes. She took our order and had our food and drinks out to us so quickly, yet so fresh. Normally you go to a restaurant and your server forgets about you or gets too busy with our people, not this time. She was attentive, caring, helpful and most importantly checked on us every so often , we didn’t have to go looking for her because just as our cups were getting empty she was there to fill them, just as we were finishing our appetizers, she was there to gather our plates and have our meals out to us. As we finished our meal she was there asking if we needed boxes. We were seated outside with a beautiful view of the city and sunset. The food was incredible and the service from Shauntea was amazing! I will be recommending this place to everyone!
