    My friend and I eat at a different restaurant every Christmas. This year drinks and dinner on the water. We made the reservation through OpenTable at 3 PM on Christmas day. When we got there. The restaurant was not open until 5 PM. We sat in the bar, and a lovely man waited on us and gave us lots of appetizers for Christmas dinner. The food was good but was mostly cold. I imagine this would be a great restaurant when it’s fall and bust. Another Christmas adventure for my friend and me.

    I had the lamb chops, there was some kind of spice on them that I’ve never tasted on lamb before, and it overtook the flavor of the meat. The potatoes were so heavily garlic that I couldn’t finish them even though I love potatoes. Really not the best meal I’ve had. The bar was extremely loud, lots of business people drinking on their companies expense.

    Nice space, attentive albeit slow service, rather mediocre food. Fish tacos had precious little fish in them. French onion soup was so-so. Caesar salad was good. I didn’t realize this to be a hotel restaurant; I likely would have gone elsewhere with my group had I known.

    It’s a very nice place. Good menu. Very good service but I’ve been twice and the place is empty. Today there was only one other table occupied. Maybe a good review will help.

    I want to thank you so much for accomodating the 7 of us on a very important day. You went out of your way to provide good service and good food for a challenging day for all of us. Burgers, turkey sandwiches, and of course, those fabulous chicken wings, were delicious. Thank you so much.

    I was slightly was slightly worried about timing but it was perfect at 11am, beyond the breakfast rush. Serene ambience, beautiful view of the water, excellent service and delish brunch items. Wonderful presentation. Everyone enjoyed their dishes and we’ll plan on returning soon. I’d like to try the French onion soup, my friend let me try hers. Yum.

    Love this place since it’s located inside Grand Bay Hotel. Parking is free and convenient. Surrounded by the lagoon view. It’s quiet with a nice ambience. Waited a bit before anyone greeted me at front desk. Other than that, our waitress was attentive and nice! Service was great! The food was good from the appetizers to dessert. All up to standard. It’s a nice choice aside from the crowded places in Burlingame and San Mateo.
