    I am just not impressed overall. Though the service staff did their best to make right some mistakes with complimentary kids’ meals and desserts. Overall, the restaurant and experience is underwhelming. The service staff was decently attentive until after a 30 minute wait for meals for 2 children of our 4 person party. The bread service was generous. Early in the meal service a complimentary Grouper dish from the Chef was a nice touch. Then it was down hill from there. No explanation was given from the 30 minutes we waited for the children’s meals after the adults were served. This was a very long 30 mins for some hungry kids and the bread lost its appeal. We shared our adult meals with the kids while we waited. There’s a decent choice of steaks available but this is not quite a steak house albeit the pricing is considerably higher than some of the best steaks I’ve enjoyed at true steak houses. I had the 10 ounce Filet Mignon. It was a very nice and generous 10 ounces but it wouldn’t rate in the top 5 Filets I’ve had or even in the top 10 steaks overall. It wasn’t very flavorful but it was plenty filling. The Wedge salad was great and was a decent dish to share between two. The Mac and Cheese a good choice as well as a decent accompaniment to share. The venue is a little loud when busy particularly where we were seated. The decor and ambiance a little Fine. The area where we were seated was a rotunda-like room near the kitchen. I wouldn’t recommend this seating location. There are other less bright and more comfortable seating areas. I might consider returning but I would likely insist on sitting in the more dimly lit and comfortable area near the bar.

    The food at Knife and Spoon was excellent but the service was even better. We were made to feel very welcome, as if we were guests on a private home. I would go back in a heartbeat.

    Our entire experience was out of this world. Everything was above and beyond all other eating establishments. It’s pricy, but well worth it.

    Beautiful plating, strong service, solid flavors. A great restaurant in the hotel but also strong enough to stand on its own. Every bite was delicious
