CURRENT Coastal Cuisine

Stopped by for a quick bite. The menu had more options than expected and tasted better than I anticipated. The service was good too. 😊

Tried to grab lunch with a few colleagues, but the restaurant was not fully staffed. What should have been a 1 hour lunch turned into 2.5 hours. There was only one person acting as bar man, server, waiter and bussing tables.

I didn't think our group of 10 had complicated orders, but almost everything came out wrong. I had order the Seared Tuna Noodle Salad and asked for no green onions. The peppered tuna was nice and the dressing was wonderful, but the noodles were so cold and hard. I also fished out so many green onions when the server specifically made sure mine was without them lol.

The funny aspect of this lunch ordeal was trying to add a fried egg and lobster onto the Grilled Cheese. Somehow the egg and lobster ended up on salmon platter. Even when the item was brought out correctly, the fried egg was placed on top of the grilled cheese rather than inside.

Anywho, surprised management only staffed one person when there was a conference going on and the meetings rooms were booked. Such a laughable experience, but at least they did comp some items given the trouble we had to endure.

Honorable mentions must go out to JAMIE and Carina for being so wonderfully warm, sweet and terrific servers. They made us feel appreciated and like family. Jamie is the best and is so fun and upbeat and thoughtful, esp. to our son. Carina remembered our needs the second time we had breakfast and was always so kind. The entire breakfast team was stellar. Thank you all for a special time!

Love this place! While staying here I come everyday for lunch and or dinner! The grilled chicken Cobb salad is delicious! Everything I’ve had here is delicious! And the pretzel is huge^ ^

Food and service is really good. I don't understand those old negative reviews.

Horrible portions on the chicken sandwich. It was basically all bun. When I inquired with the waiter he just laughed, admitted it was a small portion and walked away never to be seen again. Stay away from this place.

My husband and I were staying at the hotel and decided to grab a bite here. Our server Reggie went above and beyond; his service was impeccable! I’d recommend trying the tuna “poke,” it’s more of a salad with poke on top, but the dressing is phenomenal and it’s a generous portion!

Didn’t feel like going far, so decided to check out the hotel restaurant/bar. Was not disappointed, the food was pretty good, drinks delicious and drinks refreshing.The staff was attentive and friendly, would definitely stop in again.

Server was great. Food overpriced for what you get. Got the burger which was supposed to be on brioche bun. It was a normal bun that was over cooked. Food was hot but burger was crunchy because cheese was burnt. Parmesan truffle tots were tots with a pinch of cheese and nothing else. Sounded great but under delivered for $22 for a small burger

I had the Spicy Tuna Roll with Crispy Rice, it was excellent, love that Crispy Rice and came with amazing sauces. Then for Dinner I had the Tomahawk Short Rib, comes with great veggies as well, the best Short Ribs I've ever had, and I order them quite often.

We had the impossible beef lettuce wraps, a side of fresh veggies and one too many drinks before we returned to our room for a great nights sleep! The food was fresh and really well prepared. We had our masks (you can see mine on my phone) and felt comfortable. The veggies where spiced perfectly. So simple and elevated. Highly recommend!!
