    Too much salt on salmon, asked for medium rare and got extremely well done, pasta was suggy and most of all portions were very small considering the cost

    The breakfast food is average. For an upscale Marriott and the prices it should be better. The pancakes tasted like the grill. Vegys for omelets mushy and don’t taste fresh. Potatoes awful. Need improvement. Waffles good.

    It’s a lovely setting, but unfortunately service took way too long, and I didn’t get to enjoy the lake afterwards. Our server barely checked on us. The crab cake ($47) was small and undercooked. I sent it back and they cooked it further, but I was surprised by the high price tag, how quality of the entree lacked, and so did service

    Five of us sat outside as requested on a warm evening. We wanted appetizers and drinks. Wine was expensive but good. We were seated on the deck between the bar and nearly empty restaurant. We were refused access to the bar menu which was our goal so we ordered appetizers from the restaurant menu. One of our group enjoyed her food. The rest of us thought it was quite mediocre. Our waiter was very accommodating. Service was slow, but don’t think it was her fault.

    Just no. If you want to have to ask for your food menu, wait 2 hours for a four top to be served in a restaurant serving three parties, one walked out because of the service, have drinks spilled on you, and have silverware dropped on you, then this is your place. Save your own time and find somewhere else to eat.

    I hosted a Bon Voyage Brunch for a dear friend and it was a great experience from beginning to end. Emily accommodated the table change, we got a semi private space and our server Sawyer was AMAZING. So kind, very patient, constantly ensuring our food was up to par and that we had all we needed. Food was good and I want to go back and try dinner. The place is gorgeous too and has a phenomenal patio!

    I’m hoping it was just a bad day or maybe because it was restaurant week but our reservation was at 6. It took nearly 30 minutes for our drinks to arrive our appetizers came Out quickly but the portions were very small. However it was 7:35 before we were served cold entrees. We ended up going to a different restaurant to actually eat. It was very disappointing.

    Pretty restaurant. Good prefix menu, would have preferred being offered the full menu. The food was delicious. The service was very slow for a not very busy night.
