Very nice hotel Hyatt Centric the restaurant is connected to. However I went to get a cup of coffee to go due to the storm outside so I can hv in my room. I asked for large there's only one size 12 oz. I get the bill it says $6.33.I was surprised since on the menu it states $5.00. I give a dollar tip, brings it to $7.33 for one 12 oz coffee. Looked up online says to go bev according to CA gov tax guide with the exception of carbonated or alcoholic bev no tax on coffee tea to go.Normally I wouldn't even bother with a review but I felt like bait & switch. I'm a guest at the hotel for days so it's not about a couple dollars. I wanted to bring this to the attention of the establishment so other hotel guests or customers in general will not be unpleasantly surprised by a similar experience or know what can occur. I called to ask but put on hold long enough for me to decide to write instead.

Came here for a happy hour with some of my peeps. It was a little chilly, but we sat outside as it was so inviting and preceded to hang out for several hours. Great vibe. Good happy hour bits and cocktails.

Was there for happy hour. Drinks were good. Lime chicken wings were crispy with meat on the bone. A huge amount of fries and 3 sliders which were tasty with good buns.

Got breakfast here twice now so far and was pretty happy both times.The avocado toast and salmon toast were both great, especially the charred lemon and orange slices. Totally stealing that for home.I still prefer the avocado toast at the Marriott Bistro, where they have a really nice multigrain bread for a base, squeeze a bit of extra acid over it for brightness, and finish with a little sea salt, but this one's a better deal and more filling with an additional egg and bigger toast (they're always serving me the tiny end of the loaf at Bistro and charging me full price).I will say having cream cheese and smoked salmon on not-a-bagel made my brain go "tilt" a little. (Not in a bad way per se, especially since it's so hard to find a decent bagel on this coast. IDK why San Francisco can do sourdough so well and then suck so hard at bagels.)

I found Fairchild's Punlic House on Open Table. I would have never known it was there in the Hyatt Centric, so close to other stores and restaurants that I frequent. I was pleasantly surprised to find a diverse menu with so many enticing options, along with a full bar, and very friendly and attentive staff! I ordered a classic Old Fashioned cocktail, the baby romaine, kale and roasted butternut squash salad and the cioppino and everything was delicious! I will definitely go back!

This place is on its way back! It was a quality place before the pandemic, but then seemed to lose its footing when it re-opened, so there was a long time where we didn't go. But we've made our way back a couple of times in recent weeks, and it's been quite solid, with lovely service. The menu is fairly limited and focuses on pub fare, but it's a good, quiet environment and especially cosy both inside and outside.

Food is pretty good and tasty. However the service is really hit or miss. Some wait staff are really friendly, others have a real attitude and act like you’re inconveniencing them by asking to order. Given the wrong check and again grumbled at. Quite disappointing and makes you feel unwelcome.

The restaurant is located inside Hyatt, where we stayed a couple of days. The hotel does not provide room service. However, you can take out food to your room, which we did twice for dinner. The food is outstanding. We had the roasted chicken, veal chop, and salmon dishes. All were excellent. The Carmel Pinot Noir and their Margaritas are very enjoyable. The usher/waiter and other staff were very nice. Overall highly recommended!

whether you're team sweet or savory for breakfast, this spot has it all for you!we stopped by recently to try out their brunch menu & as a brunch fanatic, i definitely wasn't disappointed. their lemon & chive crabcake definitely delivered. it was very little breading & a whole lotta crab. however, i definitely was most obsessed with their brioche french toast. the flavors of this dish was phenomenal & the honey mascarpone cheese really tied it all together. we'd come back again just for this dish & their sweet potato belgian waffles.service was excellent & they have the cutest patio area perfect for dining during the warmer months. there's garage parking right next door, so it's super convenient to access.

I've been told the avocado toast and sweet potato waffle are both "really quite good"

Service was poor. I felt bad for the servers, but yikes. Summary: After ordering, we waited 20-mins only for our server to say she forgot to enter our order to the kitchen (ugh), didn't bring us water, asked it was ok to re-enter our order with an "asap" which it wasn't because it was another 20-25 mins to get our food, then took 30-mins to bring us our bill despite us asking for it three times. When we got the bill, it had an extra order which took our server another 15 mins to correct. Geez... total time eating 15-mins, total time waiting, 70-min no joke. That's not how to run a hotel restaurant. Poor training. It wasn't just one person. Food was good though.

friendly staff, every single employee. Julia has been our favorite bartender and staff member who has been our friend for the past 1-2 years. sadly, she will be having a change of careers so we won't see her often much longer. sad to see her go.seasonal menu that rotates to keep the menu fresh.the BEST BURGER in the area or within a 10-20 mile radius. always perfectly seasoned which is a huge thing for me. if you want a bit more salt and flavor, add bacon to give it that little extra something. you know this is fresh beef and always seasoned and cooked perfectly.fries are goodchicken cordon bleu bites are goodKorean inspired wings, good. spicy, sweet, but not too sweet which is a huge pet peeve.calamari, goodmeatless bolognese, goodcorn ravioli, too sweet and will leave you wanting something moreseasonal salads are always nice and freshpoke tuna with chips, good and changes seasonally

Came to listen to some live music on the patio and enjoy adult beverages. Abundant staff standing around but no one comes to take an order. I walk through the empty place to the empty bar to order their specialty Cadillac Margarita and wait another 10 minutes for someone to mix it. The result was an ordinary margarita. Glass is eventually empty, no one ever comes, I walk back to the still empty bar, ask for another margarita “with extra Cadillac” and ask if someone could bring it to my table. 10 more minutes go by. Staff are just standing around. Margarita finally delivered. At least the second one had a visible float. To close my bill, I go back to the bar and wait another 10 minutes to get my bill. If there was a big party happening on site demanding so much bar service, get a second bartender. Average Joe off the street gets the vibe he’s not wanted here.
