Buffet breakfast of hotel, which is decent at good price.

Very hit or miss. Bacon is thick and cooked properly, but super Smokey. One day the scrambled eggs are cooked in butter (yum) the next they’re cooked in seed oils (disgusting). Coffee is worse than Starbucks but the fruit is quite good.

I'm lost. The pics look great but it's a little Cafe like situation inside the Westin. Yes they make it classy with happy hour etc but it's like any other food spot at your hotel...just letting you know in case the pics are screaming fine dinning. Folks are checking in at the front desk while you sip Pinot...and it's Marriott so they serve chicken apple sausage for breakfast

Had a wonderful, fresh breakfast and a nice dinner at the restaurant in The Westin in Palo Alto. The breakfast I chose was the bar which included eggs, bacon, potatoes, and French toast. Cereal, coffee, OJ, and toast was available as well a 8 varieties of fruit.For dinner, I started with the cheese plate and finished with the Soleil Burger with Gilroy fries. Long Islands were outstanding. The cheese plate was excellent and served with toast. The burger was cooked to perfection with bacon and cheddar.

Just returned to Peurto de Mogan after having a great time there last year so decided to look up our fav restaurant, Samara's restaurant and grill The fillet steak I ordered was amazing, at least as good as the best I've had in London. My wife had the spaghetti marinara. Last year she said it was good but now so much better I can highly recommend this place. You will not be disappointed Ray

It was a wonderful birthday celebration for my husband, we did enjoy everything.
We always enjoy our stay at the Westin and dining at the Soleil restaurant. The staff is always fabulous and the experience does not disappoint. We feel so fortunate when Alberto is working. He is a true hospitality professional. Everyone is wonderful. Service is a large part of the experience. We had the pork chops, poke, chicken wings , soleil burger and clam chowder. Quite an eclectic meal but all were good! Can't go wrong dining here or staying at the Westin Palo Alto

There is no better way to spend a leisurely Sunday morning than at Soleil at the Westin in Palo Alto, CA over some chilled Mimosas and fine personal and attentive service! The restaurant has an elegant fine dining atmosphere to compliment the fine 'haute cuisine' and the spread is well laid out with chilled Alaskan Crab Legs (split in half shells), Oysters on half shell, Clams & Mussels on crushed ice with home made Smoked Salmon with relevant accoutrements and Iceberg & Romaine Salads with your choice of homemade Dressings. An appropriate Cheese & Antipasti Board with unusual Crackers, Wasa and different kind of Breads & Pastries were overflowing over a basket on the table. The Main Attraction besides others was a Choice of a 10 Entree Menu with Eggs Benedict with Fresh Crab Meat, A la Carte Risotto with Pan Seared King Scallops & Prawns, Kobe Steak Burger, Grilled NY Strip & Eggs and a special for Vegetarians was the Westin Brunch Skillet 'au gratin'. We both chose the King Scallop & Prawn Risotto and were amazed at the size of the Scallops. Technically for those who are seafood aficionados the Scallops were 6-8 size, ie six to eight to a lb. My dear wife called them Emperor Scallops, done perfect! What sounded like background music though, needs some attention to compliment everything else in the area. The centerpiece of the Entremet Buffet was the ever popular Chocolate Fountain. Excellent choice of molten chocolate used, milky but not too sweet and the right amount of controlled sweetness which is only possible when fine chefs in fine hotels make their own items from scratch with pride. The final 'coup-de-gras' was the steaming piping hot coffee which graced the desserts to a perfect T. Bravo Chef!
This was our first dining experience at Soleil. For our entrees, we ordered the rack of lamb (which was pretty good), but our halibut was horribly overcooked, tough as jerky. So unfortunate.

Made reservations for Easter brunch and arrived almost 45 minutes early. They seated us immediately. Made-to-order omelet was delicious. My sister loved the eggs benedict. I also enjoyed lox with capers, red onions and chopped egg. And did not skip the giant strawberries which I dipped into the chocolate fountain.

First time eating here and was meeting someone from north bay. Looked for someplace where parking was easy. Still had to pay for parking. Service was OK, and restaurant was drab. Kind of reminded you of a motel kitchen where free breakfast is served. Not very busy. Food was average. Not a huge menu to choose from, and it was OK. Kind of surprising for a Westin Hotel restaurant. I probably won't go there again.

We were staying in Palo Alto at the Westin, so The Resturant was very convenient for us. While the salads were unremarkable, entrees of lamb, the pork chop and a chicken and shrimp special were all excellent! Very tender meat, well seasoned and paired with wonderful sides were quite a surprise. Service was very attentive without being intrusive and the waiter made great recommendations. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Restaurant Soleil!

The halibut portion was very large, but the meal didn't really spark. It was on the flat side and could have used some lime juice. The seared scallops were perfectly cooked, but I felt the bed of leeks was a bit too rich. The Caesar salad was good size but again could have had more complexity with more lemon juice and some anchovies. Our waiter provided excellent service.
