The menu is quite limited, but possibly that is why what they serve is very good. The beet salad was exceptional, our entrees were quite good and the chocolate ganache was great. Wide selections of beer and wine. Service was great. Only suggestion - which is minor was both my husband and I had entrees with a sauce at the bottom of the chicken and salmon - both sauces were a little cold. Maybe it was plated before the meat and fish were done or maybe cool bowls??

The Afternoon Tea was most delicious! Two people in our group needed special care because of their food allergies. The Omni Wm Penn chef and cook staff went all out to accommodate us. The best part was Robert! Robert was our waitstaff and he was an absolute delight! He was polite, personable and made sure we had everything we wanted. I hope to return.
