    One of my favorite breakfast locations in all of town. The value for the buffet/brunch selections and beverages are outstanding! The service staff is excellent. Grab a plate, head to the buffet and run (don’t walk) to the Dulce de Leche French Toast!

    Excellent food and experience all the way around. Tasting menu was well worth it and I appreciated that they let us order 1 portion instead of the whole table. Everything was delicious and the mussels were some of the best we’ve ever had.

    I ordered a Pinot and it was extremely cold for a red wine. I told server and offered a different wine but not a new glass. Temp should be betweeen 55-60. It was too cold closer to 35-40

    Nothing about this restaurant would bring me or my guest back again. Parking & accessibility to restaurant was a turn-off with many steep stairs in & out to get to restaurant. Very POOR food presentation except for kabobs. (2) appetizer selections left uneaten, (1) (plantains) sent back for dry & tasteless. Sea Bass & trout main course fair - too many bones in trout after server deboned. Sea bass very peppered; potato side was AWFUL with taste of ‘leftover’ lukewarm potatoes topped with unappetizing MOUND of parm cheese thrown on top…AWFUL. Most everything highly ‘peppered.’ Service was the best part. Noise level awful. $158 for (2) guests (food only, no drinks) not including tip. Value of meal quality POOR.

    Highly recommend this as a private party of 2 or a group brunch location. The outdoor seating has private cabana-nooks and there are spacious comfie couch seating areas for larger groups. The food is absolutley fantastic. There is a falconer who carries around a Harris hawk to discourage grackles and sparrows from the harassing guests food. We got mimosas for the group and it was so much fun having our own sharable bottle of sparkling wine. There is a variety of mix ins for mimosas in the restaurant buffet area which just made it all the more fun. Thank you Marriot for the fun time!
