LARS Bar & Restaurant

From someone who travels but almost always avoids in-hotel restaurants, worth a visit.

Management, do what you can to keep Ashlea. She is one of your five stars.

Lars was a convenient location to meet fiends after a concert. Just had one round of drinks and an appetizer.

I cannot say enough nice things about this restaurant. The food quality is awesome and the service is exceptional. Their carne asada is something I highly recommend. I would fly all the way from New Jersey for just that! They have a number of gluten-free options which is always great. I ate dinner here on two days and on both occasions my server was Ashlea. Her service (with a smile) is incredible. She is very knowledgeable about ingredients in the menu and can advise on the right choice of items and drinks. She is extremely efficient--always on her toes--and is a true asset to the business. Ashlea made my dining experience a pleasure. Thank you!

Came here for a team dinner. Our server was amazing. She was funny and she really knew the menu. Drinks came out fast. And she even rushed some fish tacos for one of my teammates who had to leave early.

The carne asada was amazing properly cooked and tender. The chimchuri was incredibly good.

Great apps and drinks. Server was very attentive. Lovely ambiance. It was an unexpected surprise to find in the hotel.

Possibly the best Carne Asada I’ve had, and the walleye was excellent. Loved the atmosphere, and our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and polite.

Jerry ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ makes a killer old fashioned and espresso martini, is extremely efficient and welcoming!

Our server was great! Walleye was excellent. Cesar salad was bland.

Parking: Lots of parking around the hotel

Kid-friendliness: Our kids ate with us. Environment was good for kids. Don’t think they had a kids menu.

We had a group of six and a child eat at LARS for dinner and breakfast, and both times we had Brook as our server. Brook went above and beyond for our group. Always checking to make sure that we had everything that we needed, and we were always well taken care of. For dinner, we had a birthday that we were celebrating, and Brook surprised her with cake and ice cream. For breakfast, he knew we were about to drive home, and he made sure the kids had to go snacks and juices for the ride. Food was great, but service was exceptional. Will definitely back!

It was nice enough, but *very* difficult to find, tucked into the Renaissance Hotel and without a single sign outdoors. We sat in the bar, but it wasn't as conversation-friendly as I hoped with sports on 3 screens. The food was fine, but the service wasn't timely or attentive.
