Dishes of scrambled eggs and bacon in chafing dishes. Stale pastries and make your own waffles were available, but none of the things we saw on the menu like chicken and waffles. The actual restaurant for cooked to order food was not open until later, but that wasn’t advertised when I made a reservation at 8:30. We sat and after picking at a few things that were sub standard quality, we paid our check and took the loss. There are just too many great Italian bakeries in Providence to waste your time on a cookie cutter hotel breakfast buffet.

Once seated, water was brought quickly but a mixed drink took about 15 mins or more to arrive after the waitress came back by and asked You haven 't gotten your Sangria yet? Food order took even longer. One table nearby got up and left because they got tired of waiting for their food. Their food finally showed up after we had already been there an hour. Close to 45 mins for a pulled pork sandwich to arrive. The other half of our order a Steak Cheese sandwich was wrong and delivered as something called a Smashed Double Stack Burger, or something like that. By this point, at around an hour, we did not have time for it to be sent back and corrected. The food was actually good. Took about 10 mins for the waitress to return with my card after she took it. Due to amount of time everything took, would likely not go back unless just going for a drink at the bar.
