    The presentation was lovely, the ambiance was wonderful, our server was stellar, but the flavor was underwhelming at best.

    We have been going here for years and always loved it. This time food was disappointing and prices were much higher. The outdoor site is outstanding as well as service.

    Very disappointed with my experience. I was looking forward to our meal at Jack Dusty during our stay at the Ritz Carlton. The service was VERY SLOW, and the food was mediocre…two things I almost never experience at a Ritz property. The sea bass special was overcooked, and the mussels were almost foul tasting. Two of the other members of my party ordered the cioppino, and they both thought it was only okay. There did appear to be a couple of wedding going on at the hotel while we were there, so maybe that took away from staff’s ability to provide an appropriate level of service. All in all, it was an expensive meal that did not live up to expectations.

    Outdoors was a bit gutsy at 61F but heaters were in service. Nice lunch with lobster roll and poke bowl.

    We normally love the patio tables, but there was a DJ playing very annoying thumping music. We will not come back on Saturday night again. Our waiter, Austin was outstanding

    We sat inside near the back corner caddy corner to the restaurant and there was a party that was happening in a room next door that was loud, our server wasn’t attentive. Food was pretty good though -

    The valet service is quick and convenient when you want to stop in just for lunch. Dining outside is such a pleasure with no distractions and a quiet ambiance
