We have been here several times and it’s pretty good! Definitely the best hotel food I’ve ever had. Service can be touch and go but nothing too bad. When we stay at the Marriott this place is always our fall back.

Great place to catch a bite to eat with drinks before seeing a show at the Civic Center. Really appreciate the additional discount and it's a close walk. It can be quite loud in there though, and lots of hotel guests have kids which just screamed non-stop... Not the issue of the hotel though.

We were last table at the end and they were very kind waiting us to finish our wine bottle. Food was delicious, cheese wheel and bolognesa spaghetti was so tasty, portions were good, definitely I will come back

Came in on a Taco and Tequila Tuesday with a great special featured tequila from Dobel. This was a great night for quieter dining -- no big crowd or music -- but still great food and service, plus got to try the new Crystalino from Dobel that is very smooth and got deals on cocktails made with it too. We could easily converse at our table and enjoy ourselves with good food and drink. What is not to like about that ?
