    It was definitely not worth the money. The hotel and restaurant are very nice. The views are beautiful. The brunch was subpar at most, $85 a person there was not much to choose from. Both meat options were overcooked, not enough variety on their sides And the desserts were mediocre. The omelette station and waffle station save the day but besides that it was not great They also charge $35 per child but do not offer anything specifically for children. My kids are not picky but the food was not great and there was nothing geared towards kids. For $35 they each had some veggies/hummus, chips and guac and a waffle. I would definitely not recommend this place for brunch The food that you order off the menu if you sit in the bar area, however, did look good!

    It should be listed that the restaurant is located on the resort/in the Marriott Hotel. I drove around in circles a couple times before stopping to ask someone. The waiter was nice but often took too long to come back and check on us. We were on a time crunch. We only wanted to spend an hour for dinner, not two. The food was so average and yet expensive. We eat pretty healthy but could only find a few things on the menu that we were interested in. We ordered two appetizers, a salad, and a poke “bowl” that was actually served on a plate, and 2 alcoholic drinks. We split the check 50/50, but I added the drinks to my bill and it came to $85 before a $10 tip. That’s a lot when the food was just average. We will not go back during our next Navy duty weekend.

    Waiter was so high, place was empty, service was super slow. Totally empty and it too 90 min to get dinner. We left before the desert was even delivered because we were tired. We had an 8 pm reservation and left at 945 frustrated after their Valentines Day Fiasco

    I took my girlfriend to dinner here on Valentines day. Marco was an extremely kind and attentive server. Great food. Outside was a wonderful ambiance at sunset. The prefixed holiday dinner was a good quantity and selections.

    on the expensive side given the portion/quality of food. staff were nice. service was slow even though it didnt seem very busy. We werent staying at the hotel and needed parking validation (parking was $10/hr). For some reaosn they validated only 1.5 hrs of parking and we had to pay $5, which isn’t a lot but we just didnt get why they wouldnt cover the entire thing. Dont think we’ll be going back.
