Time Out says

The food is generally overpriced and mediocre, but you can’t deny the Old Hollywood appeal of the pastel pink patio at the Polo Lounge, where vibrant pink bougainvillea and cozy cabanas—once reserved for Golden Age stars trying to stay away from the cameras—still translate into one of the most beautiful outdoor dining spots in the city. During the day, the Polo Lounge mostly hosts monied locals and the power lunch set, but even if you’re not a talent agent trying to woo an A-list client, you’ll probably find a meal at the Polo Lounge pretty glamorous anyway. The impeccably trained staff is extremely knowledgeable on all the celebrities that have dined there (both living and dead). As for what to order, I recommend focusing on the starters and soups—the protein entrées are mostly disappointing, but you can’t go wrong with the classic steak tartare or any of the pastas. Unless you like mushy, slightly wet salad, skip the McCarthy salad.
