Great food, service and ambiance… but a terrible reservation system. It may seem like a small thing — but it’s the first experience. The OpenTable reservation system is terrible. We booked two months in advance — which led to innumerable texts, emails, push-notifications, reminders, and multiple confirmations of “I know we asked yesterday… and the day before… and last week… but are you *really* still coming?”. (It takes a lot to get me to complain about a reservation system… but it’s *really* that bad.) However, once you’re seated, the food, service and ambiance of the place is absolutely wonderful. Would highly recommend the dining experience.

Hotel restaurant / bar setup Food was very good well portioned Service was good, our waiter seemed to be running from table to table however there was no need for it Bar patrons were loud and obnoxious thus spoiling the atmosphere of the dining room

We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the service and food.

Server was amazing! Food was amazing! The two of us had, the Seafood Linguine, Escargot, Cesar Salad and Butter chicken.
