We enjoyed ourselves. For a restaurant that is a higher tier menu, we did find it odd that they have two giant screen TVs playing sports where it just didn't seem to fit the vibe otherwise of the very nice dining ambiance. Our server was incredibly personable and helpful with helping us pick the best meal.

Staff was not up to date on special Restaurant Week offerings. One waiter was host and waiter. Food was fair.

The young Asian gal, could not speak English, couldn't get the bill right and when my husband ordered an old fashion she said they don't have that, she needs training! I had the braised beef, it was good but over half of it was a big glob of fat. The parmasian chicken two of us had, had no sauce and when asked for more she brought out some right out of the can, not heated. I think the manager spoke to us but didn't ask us how the meal or the service. I give this place a big thumbs down!

When we arrived for the reservation and started to sit at the table someone from the restaurant approached us and rudely asked if we had a reservation. Once we were seated the waiter took a long time to take our order and bring our drinks. The service was slow and the waiter didn't check on us when we were eating dinner. One of the people in our party went to the bar to order drinks for us since we weren't offered any more. The restaurant was almost completely empty and the service was slow and very poor. It was very disappointing.

Arabian Night idea was a fun concept. Party revelers started to line up and sit around the dessert bar before our dinner was over

Overpriced and not tasty, quantity doesn't compensate for quality Food was all heaped in 2 plates served family style

This experience was awful. It took 30 minutes to get some bread and an iced tea. The manager took over for our server and wasn't much better. He took care of our three bar drinks but that was it. My daughter was asleep by the time the food came out over an hour and a half after we were seated. There were dogs throughout, including a large one that was trying to get food off of their owners table. It was the worst way to end our lovely trip to Savahna.

Food came to the table cold and was not seasoned well at all. Ricotta appetizer was served with cheap crackers, a higher quality bread pairing would have improved the dish. Very average food at not so average price.

Great atmosphere, food and service. Chi, our server, took outstanding care of us for our Christmas dinner. We will definitely be back!

This is the third time I've dined at Pacci. The Coca Cola Braised Short Ribs are bar none delicious! As is the polenta and asparagus. My date had the Short Ribs Pappardelle, which were also amazing. I will be there again!
Spaghetti Carbonara was quite disappointing. Very eggy. There should have been Romano or Parmesan cheese to provide a little contact to the eggs. If any cheese was in the sauce, it was at microscopic proportions.

The prefixe jazz dinner was really tasty. We had the focaccia bread with three dipping options, beef carpaccio, pork osso buco, mashed potatoes and asparagus and teramasu for dessert. Dessert was my least favorite. Had rioja red wine that paired well with the meal. My biggest issue was all the people with barking dogs walking through the dining area. Many guests were talking about how rude it was to be eating, trying to listen to the wonderful jazz trio with dogs barking. Pacci needs to get a handle on this and ask hotel guests to not come through the restaurant area.
We visited for Easter brunch and the food was terrible. Absolutely not worth $65 per person. I don't even know where to start. The risotto was hard and dry. The potatoes were shriveled up and dry. We went at 1:30 and it looked as if the food had been sitting out hours, even if it wasn't, the quality was awful.
Excellent service, warm hospitality, peaceful setting, and great wait staff. We have stayed at the Brice hotel before, and find ourselves going back to this restaurant several times. Great wait staff - including Sophie and Zophriana! Thank you.

What has happened to this restaurant? It used to be so good. This last visit will certainly be my LAST visit. After having to wait to be sat, our server didn't even approach us within for first 5 minutes of being seated. When the server arrived they started to pour water and they poured it all over the table and one guests cell phone. We ordered drinks, 2 of us ordered mocktails (one that was ordered they were out of) and mine definitely came out as a cocktail. We ordered heavy on the apps: CHEF LUIGI'S FOCACCIA, BRUSSELS SPROUTS SALAD & COMPRESSED WATERMELON SALAD. The bread was very dry. The watermelon salad was 3 very small pieces of normal watermelon. The Brussels salad was actually very tasty but not big enough to be a meal. When it came time to order entrees I had asked “which is better the short rib Marsala or the braised short rib?” the answer from our server was “Neither, because we are out.” The dinners we ordered were: SEAFOOD MANICOTTI, SEASONAL RAVIOLI & ROASTED CHICKEN BREAST. The texture of the manicotti was different, think tuna salad consistency in a manicotti, not great. The chicken breast says it comes with bourbon glazed carrots. That is very untrue, they tasted like they were pickled and then steamed. The chicken was very dry. The creamy risotto was very tasty I will say. As for the seasonal ravioli, it happened to be spinach and mushroom. Nothing really bad today bout it, but nothing good either. Overall, nobody finished their plate and didn't care to take their food home. Also it was unfortunate that everything we came for was not available. Also, sometimes when people order a mocktail it is VERY important that they come with no alcohol! I hope this restaurant gets back to the way they used to be. Too bad I'll never go back to see it.
