I thought the food was decent. It's a beautiful restaurant, I just wish they had a dress code. Felt odd to be in dinner attire with people being sat next to us in basketball shorts and flip flops. Otherwise it was nice.
Our server was great, but the ribeye was overcooked. All of the food was a little disappointing, but they corrected the steak situation.
Beautiful ambiance in a newly renovated hotel... but spotty service. The hotel lobby was a mess... tables with drinks and food left that clearly none was budding.. so what could be a beautifully inviting first impression looked like a junky/ dirty mess. After our dinner, still only half of the lobby tables were cleaned up. Then the table next to ours in the dining room went unclean for 18 minutes and the manager came by and took the bill/ tip that was left behind and even though it was a 2 top and he could have cleaned the table himself, did not, son it sat dirty for a total of 18 minutes either flies. There were 3 hostess gsks just standing near this unclean table and they did nothing... the restaurant was semi full but not packed or super busy that a hostess or the manager could have cleaned the table. The point is there were tons of flies and having a dirty table attracts more flies plus looks gross. Food was average.
Small portions and high prices. “Fish for the Table” was a small red snapper for $65 with a salad on top. Waitress didn't tell us this when we ordered a side salad that came with no dressing. The “crispy potatoes” were just boiled potatoes rolled in oil with no seasoning. The pasta dishes were very small portions. The server was forgetful. Very disappointing.
Outstanding! Excellent service and food. Beautiful, upscale restaurant. They could not have been any more accommodating to my dietary restrictions. Very, very pleased overall. Our waitress, Olivia, was fun, bubbly, helpful and ON IT! Don't hesitate! Halibut was the best
Service was great! Abby was wonderful! Fish was fresh! Appetizer was delicious and a huge portion. If they changed the menu each night we would go back.
The restaurant is as appealing looking as their website photos with comfortable seating. The kale caesar salad was delicious and my entree of spaghetti with crab meat was excellent as a nice light & flavorful pasta dish. My family member raved about their tagliatelle bolognese. Our waiter Grant was wonderful & we enjoyed talking with him as he was so engaging. Matthew the manager stopped by to check in & he was just fabulous giving us suggestions on residential communities to look at while we are here in town exploring.
This is our 2nd time dining here. And once again was fantastic. I ordered the Black Sea bass and it was cooked to perfection. Is on my list of favorite restaurants in the area.
I was so excited for this reservation and was VERY disappointed. Wait staff was nice but not super knowledgeable. And we did wait quite a bit of time before anyone came to the table. All good, except bruschetta, backed seasoning. We had to ask for salt and extra Parmesan cheese to try to make the dishes taste like something. It was all so bland. Major disappointment for the price. The restaurant itself is decorated well with a great Italian ambiance. Hotel grounds are nice. But I would not go back or recommend this spot.
We loved the atmosphere and service however the food was disappointing for the price. We were excited about bruschetta but it was very dry being in the thick focaccia without any oil. Also the bolognese had no tomatoes and was essentially some ground meat and carrots on very buttery/oily pasta. I enjoyed it “ok” but my son, who lives a traditional, more saucy, tomato-y, Italian bolognese was really disappointed.

Very limited menu. I ordered spaghetti with clams. It was served with 5 very small clams which didn't seem fully cooked. Pasta sauce was scanty. Both my companions asked for extra cheese to give pasta some taste. Prices were very high for the quality of food served
Wasn't sure how the blockade runner purchased by trail burn and Reno would come out, but it is a stunner! Such a cool vibe, great hotel lobby, bar, and fabulous restaurant. Exceptional service! And food was fantastic.
A lovely new restaurant in the area with inventive dishes and friendly service. We are looking forward to going back!
Beautiful restaurant and bar with a great modern vibe. Server was very polite and fast and the food was fabulous. Will definitely be back!
We shared the crudo and burrata appetizers. They were both really good. The crab spaghetti was also very good and contained a lot of chunks of crab. The bolognese was Ok. I would not get it again, somewhat oily and lacked flavor. Nice decor and nice staff.
