Overlook is a small restaurant located on the second floor of the Residence Inn, providing a cozy and intimate atmosphere for diners. It features a nice overlook of the convention center, allowing guests to watch people arrive for events like the symphony or comedy shows. The setting in a hotel lobby offers a vibe similar to movie hotel bar/restaurants, making it especially convenient for those attending nearby events, steps from the Meymandi Theater. Parking is available on the street or in a nearby parking deck, just a short walk away. The staff is attentive and polite, with servers working well together to ensure guests feel welcomed and their needs are met.
The menu is a nice selection of American fare, presented attractively and cooked beautifully. It features items like burger, steak, wings, flatbread, and more, with a large assortment of breakfast items on the buffet. The food quality is generally good, with highlights such as the burger and the steak. Drinks, including custom cocktails, are enjoyable. The staff is friendly and service is excellent.
Overall, Overlook is a hidden gem suitable for a quick meal, a relaxing evening, or a downtown dinner experience. It offers good food, friendly service, and a beautiful view, making it a great choice for casual visits and larger group gatherings.
