I used to love this place. Great food, excellent service, wonderful staff including the manager.
1) they took away the tenderloin tips. Best item on the menu for an excellent value. From here it seemed to careen sharply downhill.
2) the best bartender (at the time) was allowed to leave.
3) the best manager was allowed to leave. Someone who could light up a room and knew everyone by name. Someone who could make every experience amazing.
4) the whole staff has been allowed to turn over. Any establishment is only as great as the team that makes it. Real leaders would always take care of their people and would never allow them to feel anything less than total care. Businesses are only truly successful from the guests they accommodate to return time and time again.
5) management has changed all the furniture and removed the lounge feel. Now it’s like the breakfast room in a Marriott branded hotel. I’m not sure how the residents aren’t leaving over this.

I’ve been coming here for years and have always enjoyed it, but the recent changes are not good at all. It’s gone from feeling like a more upscale lounge to the look and feel of a cheap courtyard inn lobby. Management must be totally incompetent to either (A) think this was a good idea or (B) allow it to happen. Please change this back before your reputation is totally ruined.

Food is Alright, felt like it’s warmed up and dry, not actually fresh and juicy.

I took my visiting parents and grandparents here in hopes of a fine dining experience. We quickly realized that it was more of a lounge and not a sit down restaurant for a party of 5+. However, Josh and the rest of the team immediately came to our rescue, and was able to get us set up at a table and went above and beyond with special touches. I cannot get over how well everyone did in making us feel so special. They are truly the top of the line in terms of Hospitality individuals. Outstanding experience, and I would love to be back in the future with more local visitors.
I brought my company to an event in the convention center. My director of operations suggested we have a drink here. So I have 20 folks coming here to get a few drinks my treat. My son (of age) who has terrible food allergies came with a bag of outside food. He was ask to leave. So I took my folks to a place that appreciated the high bar tab. I will never visit here again
My wife and I attended last night for probably our 6th time the last couple of years. The food and drinks were great, but the service was not great as I expect from this establishment or that we've been used to. We waited about 40 minutes for our main entree and only one server checked on us once during our one and a half hour stay.
Service was attentive and breakfast was perfectly portioned and cooked well. Can't speak on the bar myself, but others in my group spoke highly of it.

We are here for dinner and breakfast. Dinner had great red wine selection but the food wasn’t warm and sub par for the value. Service for breakfast was excellent but ordered the buttermilk pancakes and they were like gummy flat greasy crepes. Not worth the value!! Go somewhere else even if it’s inconvenient!

Tried getting a table. Stood there while 3 employees walked by and didn't say anything. Just went somewhere else.
A great little hidden spot in the split hotel, which is very convenient beside the convention center and sun sphere. I really loved the vibe of this little restaurant. The bartender was amazing. I met a couple travelers while I was there and the woman beside me had soup which looked delicious. I went in for a drink which was made very well. So good! There was plenty of seats at the bar and tvs up on the wall, so i'm guessing a good place to watch a game. There's a lot of different options for food and drinks.
