About Openaire
Openaire is an American restaurant on the second floor of the LINE hotel on Wilshire Blvd, reached through the hotel lobby and up an elevator. The dining room is built as a greenhouse filled with plants, with communal tables seated first come, first served. The kitchen serves California fare across a 59 item menu, with the house milk bread, ahi tuna tartare, and tempura squash blossoms among the offerings. Lobster chilaquiles and chia seed pudding appear as recurring dishes, and brunch service runs until the space is reset for dinner. The restaurant opens daily, and valet parking with validation is available at the hotel, alongside nearby street parking.

Customer Review Summary
The greenhouse setting inside the Line Hotel is the clear draw, with reviewers repeatedly calling the plant-filled, sunlit space dreamy or stunning, especially for brunch. Brunch dishes draw the most specific praise: the lobster chilaquiles, crab benedict, salmon Benedict, coconut chia pudding, and cinnamon roll all get singled out, alongside cocktails like the purple rain and classic margarita. Several diners note portions running small for the price, and a few describe reservations not being honored on time or seating delayed while staff sorted out large parties. Some found the space needed more greenery than expected or got too loud with big groups nearby, and one anniversary diner was seated facing a large illuminated sign next door. A promoted Halloween storytelling event was reportedly unstaffed and unknown to the team on the night. One reviewer also reports being served a dish with spoiled cherry tomatoes and separately describes an inappropriate comment from a bartender, which they say they formally reported to the hotel. Most others describe the service as attentive and the setting worth returning to for brunch.

“Not very good. This is in a hotel. Squash blossoms are overly fried in fat nit very good. Beet salad nothing to write home about, and the chicken Jindori was okay. The atmosphere is sterile and the food is a really priced. I would recommend somewhere else $150 plus you can do a lot better”
- Jeff Liwag
“The cheeseburger was a soggy mess (even the patty - it crumbled into what felt like a wet rag and didn't even taste like beef) and the chicken sandwich looked promising but it failed in the taste and mouthfeel departments too. The sweet potato fries were good but the aioli was not. The service was wonderful, though”

“Came for a work brunch with my coworkers. The place is very lovely- super peaceful and spacious. Prices were a bit on the higher side for portions that were a bit smaller than we expected. I ordered the coconut chia pudding. It was very yummy, however the chia pudding was more similar to almost greek yogurt or dried yogurt? in texture. It was delicious, just unexpected since usually the chia puddings that I've had were more gloopy. Service was great. We got there a bit late and ended up arriving 15 mins before brunch ended but were able to get seated and order without any wait.”
- Ivan Davila
“The food was amazing and the service was great as well. Eric was our server and he did a great job taking care of our table. The hostess also had a great attitude and was really friendly and helpful.”
- George W. Kajjumba
“Lisa and Jennifer were fantastic. They walked us through the menu despite it having no pictures and described each dish so vividly that it felt like you could already see what you were about to eat.”
