Expert Reviews of Cathedral of Our Lady of The Angels

User Reviews of Cathedral of Our Lady of The Angels

Yelp.com Review - by brad w.

4.0 of 5 stars. Attended a mass here as an interfaith visitor in 2007. A gorgeous building- but I have to admit some bias, we provided materials for the 2002 construction.

5.0 of 5 stars. The Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels - is a modern marvel (in my opinion). If you don't know much about how controversial the building of this cathedral was - then I suggest Googling it - and for…

5.0 of 5 stars. Fascinating modernist take on a cathedral. If architecture is your thing in the least you need to check it out. It still retains the heart and soul of a religious building while giving a modern look…

5.0 of 5 stars. I'm not religious but I love food. They have a cafeteria here that makes a great turkey paninni sandwich. My best pal and I used to go here to get away from the office. We usually sat outside and…

Not a good place to have a wedding

I've attended 2 weddings at this overrated building. Granted, it's decent looking but the architecture and overall look of the building did not make me feel any sense of awe or reverence. My mom put it best...

5.0 of 5 stars. I am absolutely in love with it. It's a juxtaposition of materials and design that both fits the atmosphere, diversity, and contradiction that encompasses L.A., and which works to create a space for…

5.0 of 5 stars. This place made me feel very peaceful and pensive. It is GRAND...The architecture is bigger than life, and you feel small. The size of the places, the number of benches, the holyness of it all makes…

5.0 of 5 stars. When I first heard about a Cathedral being built in Los Angeles, I admit to having visions of a Cathedral more baroque in regards to design and architectural style. So when I first saw pictures of…

4.0 of 5 stars. Close to Chinatown this cathedral is not of your typical design. very modern and minimalist... which works to its advantage in focusing and showing off the artwork. Tons of nooks and crannys to walk…

5.0 of 5 stars. Breathetaking. The multi-floor ceilings are great. This is not your normal Catholic Church. You first set your eyes on what I am guessing is a Saint. Exactly who it is, I'm not sure. But the…

4.0 of 5 stars. You don't have to be Catholic to spend a nice afternoon with your mother, but it helps. There is a cafe and a gift shop. It is also a great place to have a meeting if you are near the courthouse or…

5.0 of 5 stars. I love this place, just to absorb and enjoy the design and architecture and feel. You got to pay for parking and have to go early, but its a LA cultural and architectural land mark. Its a church btw.

5.0 of 5 stars. Looming over the Hollywood Freeway, this Rafael Moneo-designed eleven-story structure - which has no right angles - looks more like an ultramodern highrise condominium complex than a house of worship.…
