This $15 breakfast was disgusting. The food was cold and greasy. There was no visible service. The fare was the same as any free breakfast you get at other hotels but less care was put into it. To illustrate how bad all the diners had a collective realization that the half n half they served with the coffee was two months past it's expiration date and spoiled. So repulsive.

A bar in a giant hotel that closes at 8:30-9pm. Absolutely stupid

Uninspired and barely acceptable hotel food for breakfasts and dinner. Marginally better than the free food at many motels for breakfast, except the buffet is around $15 rather than free. With the exceptional the omelet chef, who was fine, this was adequate only to provide fuel for the day. The jellies for toast have high-fructose corn syrup instead of better quality sugar. Same holds true for the pancake syrup, rather than maple syrup. The food is depressingly dull. On the days that I was there, fruits mostly consisted of not-quite-ripe-enough-to-eat cantaloupe and honeydew melon. Only one day we’re there some berries to break up the blandness. Dinner on one night was two chicken “cutlets” that were haphazardly seasoned and prepared on the equivalent of a George Forman grill. The green salad was better, and the French Onion Soup was fine. Another night was a vegetarian ravioli, which was passable, but without much to distinguish it. The sauce seemed mostly like unflavored oil. The best thing I can say is that it was in the hotel and didn’t make me sick. It filled me up, but restaurant food should aspire to be more than that. The hotel was not busy, and they weren’t staffed up (which made sense). At dinner, the people who juggle the bar and tables at the same time deserve credit for handling a difficult situation very well. If you’ve got a car, you should look for better food options for breakfasts and dinner. If you’ve just got to eat something, keep it to simple things like a burger. Don’t forget to tip your waiter. It’s not their fault what the kitchen makes.

only been here for breakfast before my long day. They have quite a few options like the traditional american breakfast with eggs bacon sausage or the eggs benedict. They also offer the buffet for $15. Thats what i normally go for because its ready and fast and its the same price as their plates. Plus it includes drinks. the buffet includes fruit, oatmeal, cottage cheese, bagels, pastries, french toast, potatoes, sausage, bacon, and a chef that makes omelettes. I think the omelettes are the best thing there. the potatoes were on the cold side with little flavor. the bacon was soggy. the sausages were mushy. the french toast was hard and the syrup to go with it was extremely sticky. it tore my napkin as i tried to wipe my lips. reason for the 2 stars instead of 1 was the service and cleanliness. they greet you and keep checking up on you. very fast and prompt. i say this is my only choice for breakfast for the convenience factor.

When you have a full house at the hotel this restaurant is at due to a convention, having a full wait staff is critical! No one was at the check in table and there was no one around for at least 15 minutes. It took another guest to tell us that we needed to go to the bar and order, as there were no wait staff, only bussers. Spent another 15 minutes at the bar just to get a menu. The menu had 3 entrées on it; a cheeseburger, a TBLT, and a Caesar salad. That's it. I haven't even had the chance to eat the food yet. This hotel restaurant is stunningly understaffed for a crowd of over 1000 guests. My wife ordered a grilled cheese with tomato soup, both were cold. My Caesar salad was OK, but it's hard to mess that up.

Ate here three times while staying at the Marriott. Lovely setting, the food is quite good, but the service is so terrible I can't give the place a good review. Twice they were understaffed. The first time we ate here the lone waitress was seating people too. But there were several bartenders that weren't the least bit busy. The next time there was only one waitress, and she had a certain "section" in the spacious place, so they kept seating everyone along one banquette. We were sitting on top of each other while the rest of the place was empty. And the kitchen got the order wrong. The last time the staff was terribly inattentive. Our waiter was so busy chatting with the bartender he didn't see us trying to get his attention for 10 minutes. The food took forever and the kitchen got this order wrong also. This place needs a good manager! Good food and a nice dining area isn't enough if your guests are frustrated by horrible service.

Ordered room service- the salmon salad- it was missing ingredients listed on menu. Also ordered a glass of la crema Pinot noir and I am positive that they served a less expensive alternative based on the extremely sour taste. Would not recommend unless desperate for food.
