"The waiter approached me to take my order with a broom and dustpan in his hand. Need I say more? I didn't actually eat here - I left and went elsewhere."

"The dining room was spacious and quiet - a great setting for a group lunch. The food was interesting and the starter of hummus and lavash was a nice change from bread and butter.
We plan to go back for the nest office lunch and ccant wait for th weather to warm up so we sit outside!

"We had a craving for Mediterranean food and opentabled this place... the only thing nearby that fit the trick. Brick fired pizzas. Pictures looked like a quaint little neighborhood restaurant. It's not. It's the hotel restaurant in the Embassy Suites.Actually, the menu looked a lot like the room service menu for a hotel. Turkey club sandwich. Cobb salad. Nothing looked Mediterranean or Grill. We were very disappointed. Actually, my wife was furious because she was craving med. food. The "specials" included "pasta" or "salad." Not cute and charming :(Also, the complementary bevs for happy hour were $9 for non guests :( double boo.Do not be fooled. Standard hotel restaurant."
