30 bucks for Continental, self service buffet... Wait 15 minutes to be greeted, another 15 for eggs that are gone in an instant, then wait again... Half and half is out, no one refills it... Plenty of staff middling around talking to each other and ignoring guests... Lots of better cheaper options all around. I won't be subsidizing this apathetic staff again!

Something is off this time. I stayed at HGI for a week, my third stay in 2 years. Bfast is Buffet style with an ala carte option. I just small sampled the hot items and mostly had the cold and continental items.

Pros. Excellent customer centric wait staff. Must have an awesome cook/chef as hot breakfast items were really good. Wide selection of hot items and a chef's special each morning.

Cons. Ran out of cereal on my 1st breakfast. There were like 2 prepackaged cups left that morning. No cereals the following morning. Until the day before I checked when cereal was refilled. Then ran out of PB&J on my 4th day. Never got refilled. Then cream cheese was not available on my last day. The 4 slice bread toaster, only partly works.....only 1 side works and the other will not hold when pressed down.

Stayed in the Hilton here attached to the restaurant and had breakfast here every morning. Ramon made our experience so enjoyable. He was our server almost everyday we were there. If he wasn't our server he was making sure we got pristine service. I work in the food service industry and people like him make all the difference. Thanks again Ramon for being amazing!!

Staff did not greet us. Only one table in the place was clean and there were no other customers.

As far as hotel bars go it’s pretty good. They got a great beer selection and the food was not bad

Breakfast buffet felt like a SCAM $26 per person for the types of food you can get at a seedy hotel free breakfast, burnt coffee, and no inclusion of waffles or Pancakes in the breakfast even - they're $14 each on top of the buffet cost. Don't recommend at all!

I had a pretty bad experience with the food. I ordered the craft burger.The buns were so old and rubbery that I struggled to bite through them or cut them with the provided knife. I eventually just gave up and ate the patty without the buns.The patty itself was pretty disappointing too. The toppings were fine though.The fries served with it were all so burnt that most of them were basically inedible.The photo captures all the inedible food I had leftover.

I was a guest at Hilton Garden Inn Downtown Seattle and ate breakfast here both Saturday & Sunday mornings. The only meals I had were French toast, waffles and pancakes with eggs (scrambled/poached). Quality of food is excellent. The nice thing is coffee is complimentary even though I was expecting they'd charge it to my bill. Staff was very prompt, friendly and excellent in handling orders and answering any questions one might have. Despite me thinking the total for waffles & french toast would come to around $40, somehow I was charged $20 total (with tip included). If you stay at this hotel, you must at least have the breakfast here.

Alyssa was great. Fast service and was on top of things. She also made great drinks. I liked my food as well.

The Hostess is great. The food not great, I ordered flat bread with pepperoni, sauage, and basil. No peperoni, unless it was chopped up, but still could not taste it.

Hotel bar and restaurant. Expensive for what you get, but convenient if you're staying there.

We came here as we're staying in the Hilton Garden Inn and honestly we were too tired to look elsewhere. However we were not disappointed in the least and ended very pleased with our choice. Let's be clear, it's not gourmet cuisine, it's standard bar fare, but tasty enough and good value for money. The staff were all very welcoming and Monique, our server, couldn't have been friendlier or more attentive. I should also mention the ambience. For two tired travellers it was just what was needed; relaxed and easygoing. All in all, a very pleasant (and unexpected!) experience for a hotel restaurant. I'd come again should the opportunity arise.

Just spent $40 on a lukewarm TV dinner that I didn't care to finish and a watered down cocktail. The place looks nice - that's about it.
