    The menu items are non traditional, bacon mousse, duck breast. I thought it would be decorated for holidays, it wasn't. I also did not know it was in a hotel. It made waiting for our table, strange. We waited in the hotel lobby. The cocktails were very good and so were the fries. I got a burger which was very good but it was an ala carte menu. Sides extra.

    Good food and service. Did not know this restaurant is attached to the Hilton. Table was small for a party of 5. Not overly crowded. Overall a good experience but not likely to visit again.

    This place is just perfect! First we had the Parker rolls (must have) the whipped butter with garlic was so tasty!! Second we had the wedge salad which was very fresh and the spicy ranch was so good. Third we had the skirt steak with twice baked potato. Skirt steak was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. The cranberry pear punch cocktail was great!! All around great atmosphere. Highly recommend!!

    The food was really good, we enjoyed it a lot, but the best part by far was the excellent service that the waiter Julio delivered to us. He was very charming, welcoming and made our experience super pleasant.
