In fairness I have dined here many times and had a wonderful experience. This was my first time doing breakfast in the actual restaurant. Opted to get the classic breakfast instead of doing their buffet. Maybe I came too late in the morning but I got the impression my food was not made to order or possibly reheated. Toast and the tomato were fresh but the bacon was dry and cooked to a crisp (beef jerky would have been better) and the potato hash was burnt. It made me wonder if they took the food from the buffet and reheated it. Not sure what happened but it was a complete fail and I hadn't eaten all morning so I drank water and made the most of it. I will say the meals at the table next to me who did not order from the buffet had sandwiches and it looked phenomenal. My best advice would be do not order the classic breakfast if you prefer service over the buffet.

From the start to the finish, our server was one of the best servers in our over 40 years of fine dining! Heni made it a fun night in celebrating my wife's birthday! The food was top level with great presentation,, and good portions. I highly recommend dining at Liv

We opted for the Table for 2 menu...selection was great and the food was amazing. Our waitress was Rachel, who was very attentive and professional with a friendly smile. We will definitely return.

This was our second time enjoying “Table for Two” at Liv. It's impressive overall & the staff makes every effort to make it a pleasant dining experience. The steak dinner unfortunately arrived cold. We mentioned it & our server kindly & quickly took our plates to remedy. Unfortunately it arrived just warm, definitely not hot a second time. The steaks also were not good cuts & had grizzle - was really tough. My wife's chicken dinner was fantastic! There were two couples for our visit. We will definitely go back again since it was overall a very pleasant dinner. Hopefully they get better beef in the future & also heat the plates or something. I will say they make guests feel very special! Great staff!

The greeting from the front of the hotel was fantastic! The food was good however, the service was poor. We were rushed out without notice by a server and advised housekeeping was coming in soon, followed by shutting off the lights while we were still dining. Our server, Kelly, was great and it's unfortunate our visit ended like this.

From the moment we arrived until the end the service was excellent and timely. Food was great. While we all know prices has gone up lately I must say that the price of a glass of wine was pricier than other places. ( Food comparable)

We had dinner last night-the dinner for 2 special feature. We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary. We had a wonderful time. The food and service was amazing!!! Our 2 servers were awesome!! We will definitely come back again!!! The decor was just ok Please consider changing the spa music to jazz or classical music. The spa music was not appropriate for a dining room experience.

Great experience. We thoroughly enjoyed the prix-fixe dinner. The courses were creative and well prepared. Plenty of food. Bring your appetite!!! The wait staff is excellent. Note: the prix-fixe is available Monday to Wednesday.

Excellent food and exceptional service. The Caesar Spears are a tasty version of the original salad. The scallops were seasoned and cooked perfectly, accompanied by a perfect risotto. The staff are the best!

L I V Restaurant 5 stars. Highly recommend the short rib gnocci and Beef Tenderloin with chorizo butter, fingerling potatoes and seasonal vegetables. Highly Highly recommended. Fiona our server was wonderful, she gave some good recommendations to my wife. I personally asked to see the chef but unfortunately she already left. I personally wanted to commend her, I have dined at the restaurant before and again my experience is nothing short of amazing. Whatever the kitchen staff are paid, I'm thinking they deserve that and more (lol). My margarita was not to my liking, didn't taste the alcohol, it was watery but I came for the food. I will be back.
