Mixed Reviews on a Tropical Hideaway

As a corporate concierge who handles three Los Angeles office buildings with a population of 3,000, I am always interested in restaurant reviews, but the report on the Tahiti restaurant (“A Tropical Hideaway,” by S. Irene Virbila, Aug. 8) really got my attention. That was because the Los Angeles Society of Corporate Concierge was scheduled to have its Aug. 16 meeting at the restaurant. Under normal circumstances, I do not write to newspapers, but the difference between what we experienced and what Virbila observed and tasted was like night and day. The service was great, the food was delicious and the decor was fun and pleasing.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Tahiti to any of my tenants, and everyone at the meeting felt the same way. It’s hard to believe that your reviewer could have had such an awful experience.
