I had breakfast at this restaurant and the staff was very accommodating! I ordered the Veggie-Omelet without eggs and it was delicious.

I have dined at this restaurant several times and they always make a slight change to a dish to accommodate my vegan diet. The service is excellent. Although there are not many vegan options on the menu, they truly excel in the ones they offer.

This restaurant is not your average hotel dining option. It is a serene spot ideal for a lunch meeting or a large family dinner. Chef Jason excels at using fresh local ingredients in a menu that is always interesting. Even though I am not typically a fan of soup, I always make sure to try the soup of the day whenever I visit because it is consistently delicious.

The first time I went here was not good, but sometimes it is just a bad night. We returned and it was worse. Only 2 servers, so had to go bar area because they can only have so many occupied tables. The bartender never came from back of bar. I had to go up to bar and place my order, get my drinks, rob silverware from another table. Steak ordered medium rare was way overcooked, sent back replacement was salty. Pricy menu that is not worth it.

I had an excellent Cobb salad, and the service was outstanding as well.
