Charley's Continental Buffet Breakfast
Margherita

“Pleasantly surprised by this very intimate restaurant in the Marriott. Wasn't expecting much from the small menu, but the Strawberry Balsalmic Chicken Salad was lovely and the Chicken Flatbread we shared was fresh. The chicken on both dishes were tender and moist. The crust looked hand-tossed and was crispy. I forgot the name of the server, but he was fabulous with a cheery disposition. The decor is simple and modern with clean lines. I would come back here if I had to wait a long time to pick up a someone from the airport. Parking is free, just tell the front desk you are here. There is a small bar but this doesn't look like a bar hangout as it had a quiet atmosphere.

Parking: Let the front desk you are eating here if you are not a guest.“

“Had an overnight stay at the Hotel for business. Didn’t want to go out just something simple but good. The classic burger did not disappoint. Cooked exactly as I asked. Super juicy and fresh toppings. Fries were the seasoned kind. Just crispy enough but not too much. The menu has lighter foods and more upscale if that is your craving. Service was friendly and food came out in a very reasonable amount of time.“

“The moment we stepped into the restaurant, we were transported to a tropical paradise. The vibrant ambiance, coupled with the soothing sounds of island music, created the perfect setting for a relaxing meal.
Our server, Jessica, was exceptional. Her warm and friendly demeanor made us feel right at home. She was knowledgeable about the menu, offering excellent recommendations that elevated our dining experience. Her suggestion of the King Carnaval drink was spot on - a refreshing and flavorful cocktail that perfectly complemented our meal. The food was equally impressive. We started with the empanadas and tuna tostada stack, which were both flavorful and visually appealing. The empanadas were crispy on the outside and filled with savory goodness, while the tuna tostada stack was a delightful blend of fresh tuna, avocado, and spicy peppers.
For the main course, Jessica recommended the snapper with green beans, which was a fantastic choice. The fish was cooked to perfection, flaky and moist, and the green beans were seasoned just right. The combination of flavors was simply divine. Overall, our dinner at Bahama Breeze was a fantastic experience. The food, the ambiance, and the service were all top-notch. We will definitely be returning to this tropical oasis in the future, and we can't wait to see what other delicious surprises Jessica has in store for us

Recently we came in and had a tall blonde/brownish short hair be our waitress, and we kind of felt non existent, she was talking to a male customer for most of the time so I had to ask another waitress for things that we needed.“

“We were told that it was a 20 minute wait even though there were multiple open tables. We did find a table in the bar and were served with menus within just a couple minutes after sitting down. Our wait staff was amazing taking our drinks and menu order without writing anything down. Our order came out quickly and correctly. Our wait person also brought extra napkins and refills for drinks without being asked. Such improved service compared to our previous visit.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free buns available for burgers. Unsure if a gluten free pizza option was available.
Chicken could be ordered grilled.“
