    Had hoped to have a nice brunch with my family. Service was horrible - incompetent, indifferent, and cavalier. We will not be returning.

    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.
