    Little crowd but waited long time to get my omelette and pancakes with side of pork roll. When I finally got the food my omelette was cold and pork roll dried up inedible. Pancakes were good though.

    All six of us enjoyed our meals and we all had different entrees. We shared nachos and flatbread as appetizers, and both were enough for everyone. The baby back ribs were outstanding, succulent and tangy. Burgers were cooked as ordered and French fries were hot and crisp. The server was professional, friendly and attentive but not intrusive. I would recommend HRC for a very pleasant casual dining experience.

    The restaurant was not staff appropriately. They were overwhelmed and were making lots of mistakes. They could t keep up with the tables. Also, there were several open tables during dinner. You would think the manager would staff appropriately when they see the amount of reservations and knowing there is a sold out Zac Brown concert in the same resort.
