The food temperatures were not correct - my burger was served raw on the inside. The rice was both hard and undercooked, yet also mushy at the same time. On a positive note, the curry sauce that accompanied the chicken was good, and the drinks were also enjoyable. However, I was concerned to see the bartender licking his fingers, handling money, using a dish rag, and then touching the ends of the straws before putting them into the drinks, which raises cleanliness issues since there was no hand washing observed. Overall, the place has a diner-like appearance, reminiscent of Denny's.

This restaurant, located in a hotel, is quite impressive. While it isn't Fine Dining, the menu has some creative options. I tried a cheesesteak that featured a real cheese sauce (not Cheez Whiz), which paired wonderfully with the well-seasoned beef. My wife ordered a decent Caesar salad. We also enjoyed an outstanding French Onion soup. Just so you know, we opted for the à la carte menu, but there's also a limited menu available.

The hummus was terrific. Waitress was very nice. Few customers being the 4th of July. My only criticism was the root beet salad was doused in vinegar-based dressing so it wasn't pleasant. My friends salad was had less dressing and tasted much better. Nice place.

The service and food were excellent, but the noise from the bar and lounge area was a bit excessive. The portion sizes of the meals were larger than I anticipated. Overall, it was a very good experience. Book a table now

Came to reservation only to be told the kitchen was closed for the evening. There were also still 3 available later time slots available on the app. Spoke with manager who refused to accommodate us

The restaurant smelled awful, bug repellent plus ammonia. Fruit flies hovering over us the whole meal. Landing in our glasses and food. Ambiance was a generic hotel lobby. Just gross. Never again.
