    More of a hotel lobby than a restaurant. Food was alright.

    We enjoyed the dishes - two pastas that felt homemade and plentiful. If you go, ask to be seated closer to the center so you're not near the hotel lobby entrance where people hustle by with suitcases

    We had a very poor experience. Service was slow, we were seated for 20 minutes before we got the water we asked for. It took another 10 for him to bring out a glass of Coke. Food didn’t arrive all at once, it came in 5-10 minute intervals and mine didn’t arrive until everyone was almost finished. In total, it took more than an hour after we were seated to receive all of our food. The server did discount and comp some so that was appreciated but it was an overall poor experience and I wouldn’t recommend the restaurant to anyone.

    Extremely crowded and was understaffed. Food was delicious and venue is conveniently in the lobby of the hotel.

    Once we got seated, everything was great. The problem was that we had an Open Table reservation for 5:30 but did not get seated until after 6:00. There was a long line at the hostess desk and everyone in front of us also had reservations. The only reason we even got seated around 6:10 was because the 3-4 groups in front of us gave up and went elsewhere. I understand things happen and people call off, but I was most disappointed at the lack of acknowledgment by the hostess. She never checked in on the line, never apologized for the wait, never offered a free drink from the bar while we waited, etc. Zero acknowledgement whatsoever that we waited for 40 mins even with a reservation or that we even had a reservation. But once we got seated, our waitress was great, quick… burger and fries were great. I might give this place one more try but if there is a wait again, I wouldn’t go back. Too many restaurants in that area to choose from.

    They don’t tell you this is essentially just the hotel’s lobby bar. Terribly disappointed
