Food was ok, but the manager or head server(Mitch) was rude. I booked my reservation via open table and I had to put my credit card in to book it, so when it was time leave my subpar dining experience at riva I asked my server if it was prepaid, showing her that my card with the price reflected was on the open table app. She didn’t know and so went to get her manager (Mitch). Next thing I know, he’s yelling across the restaurant “nothing is prepaid”. He then proceeds to get to my table and is still yelling (now at me and my mother), and we’re just looking at him dumbfounded as his reaction was completely unwarranted. Think he realized how silly he was being when I didn’t react to his response and just simply asked him to confirm that my card would not be charged from the open table app. I suggest Marriott invest in training of its employees with respect to how they react and respond when a patron asks a question.

Helaas was onze ervaring vandaag met Christmas dinner echt heel slecht. Prijs kwaliteit verhouding was ver te zoeken. Wij komen in Marriotts in Europa, Caribbean....maar de kwaliteit en variëteit was zeer mager. Dit zou in Nederland of Aruba niet geaccepteerd of uberhaupt aangeboden worden. Jammer. Er was weinig kerst diner aan....hooguit de kerstman chocolade bij de dessert bar. Jammer. Absoluut geen aanrader om je Christmas dinner op deze manier door te brengen.

Breakfast with Santa was absolutely terrible and there was nothing special. There was no decorations. No activities for the kids at all. Santa was just sat on a chair with a red blanket thrown over it, sat in front of a fire exit. This has to be the worst Santa experience my kids have ever been to and they are 10 & 13. None of the photo’s even came out because he was sat in front of a window so you cannot see anyone. This is so expensive and there was absolutely nothing different from sitting in any cafe or restaurant. We never got any hot chocolate or anything “Christmas”. Also the price of $49 per adult and $24 is super expensive. It’a meant to include tip and taxes? We have been charged a lot more for 4 adults and 2 kids???? We would have rather sat in Riva, which is where we thought we were going to sit and had nice views. Instead we were in another room. No views. It really was a terrible experience. I do not recommend any family go to this. A waster of money and nothing for your money. This was our only planned activity for Christmas as we are going away and we feel highly disappointed! Very sad!

To be fair, review is not really reflective of restaurant as the thanksgiving buffet was setup in a convention ballroom that seemed to be run as banquet function not Riva. We were ok to enjoy nice weather outside and the ocean view minus the work vehicle beeping as he loaded items for a bit. However we just expected a different ambiance thinking we'd be in a restaurant being our first time here for the holiday meal. Food had a good variety and was ok but not hot. Turkey was dry and prime rib was well done. The servers were very polite but not by our table often. They should have a cocktail menu rather than just wine and bubbles. They accomodated our request. It just took time like it was unexpected request. Offering a welcome toast or coffee for dessert or setting up a station with the desserts would be a nice addition to add value. There was nothing wrong. There was just nothing wow for $250 check. This was for two guests- 3 cocktails, 2 buffets and service charge. We do appreciate not having to cook and the team that worked the holiday so we could eat.

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving Brunch at Marriott Harbor Beach's Riva Restaurant. The food was outstanding and there was quite a variety. The service was excellent and the view of the ocean was beautiful. My husband and I truly loved it and we recommend it for the future!
