    Verse is a fantastic dining experience. The restaurant is beautiful with specifically designed acoustics so that you can talk with your companions. The staff is excellent and knowledgeable, attentive but not obtrusive. The cocktails were excellent as was the food. It was difficult to decide what to order because everything sounded so good!

    We expected a special experience at the Tower Bar Restaurant this week, but we were pleasantly surprised by how much better it was than expected! The atmosphere was timeless and chic, the food was exceptional, and the service was beyond compare. It started at the front desk and was superb throughout our meal. We were never rushed, and were able to enjoy a long and relaxing brunch with multiple courses. The price was more reasonable than expected. And Angel our server was a true brand ambassador … he was knowledgeable, kind, entertaining, and made us want to not only return to the restaurant, but stay at the hotel the next time that we are in town. Thanks so much for a superb dining experience for the whole family. We can’t wait to come back again.

    This is third thanksgiving had La Bohème and was not as good as a previous two years. Turkey with a little dry and could have used more gravy and mashed potatoes or not hot. I’m not having dessert. Options was also a disappointment. I love the restaurant, the energy and the service, but the food needs to improve.

    First time to visit this restaurant. The entrance seems a bit odd but as soon as you open the door and walk in, it has a nice vibe. Dining area is all the way to the back, past the bar and library lounge. Food was great and the complimentary sparkling red wine was a nice touch. I just have an issue with forcing you to order all the food at once (appetizers and entre). I would rather have an option of ordering appetizers first and tasting it and see how large or small the portions are, then I pick my entre. By the way, we did ala carte and not Prix Fixe menu to have the liberty of ordering everything we want to try. Overall, the experience was good, although it could be better.
