The hosts and table servers at Avenue One Restaurant inside the Hyatt were friendly and helpful. The male host seated me immediately. The buffet selections were limited to French toast, sausage links, hash browns, croissants, cereal, fresh fruit, eggs, and an omelette/pancake bar. Coffee, hot tea, and juice (orange, grapefruit, and cranapple) are included in the buffet price of $28.89/person ($27 + 1.89 tax), as of May 2022. With tip, the final price was around $34/person. The food was delicious.
The employee working the omelette and pancake bar didn't greet me nor did he acknowledge me when I said "Good morning" to him, but he did initiate a greeting to the two blonde women, who were standing in line behind me with a "Good morning". Despite his behavior, I smiled, used a friendly voice tone, said please when I asked for items and thank you for when he gave me the food items. When I asked him for a pancake order (this was after I placed an omelette order), the employee turned his face partially towards the kitchen and I could see his profile and he rolled his eyes.
I went back a second time and heard the man say "Good morning" to a young White lady. It is possible he was having a bad day, but I paid the same price as the blondes, possibly more because I tip at least 20%, so if he is going to greet some customers, he should be consistent and greet all who come to him. He had a tip jar next to him and none of the White women whom I overheard he greeted put any money in that tip jar, and I certainly didn't either.
My waiter was efficient, perhaps too much so, as he placed my bill on the table when the breakfast wasn't even halfway finished -- there were still plates of food on the table. I paid only when I finished eating. The French toast was out when I first came up to the buffet and was replenished only I came up much later.
There were onions in my omelette even though none were asked for. I noticed in the first picture I posted of the omelette toppings that there is some cross-contamination of items, so that's probably how onions appeared in my omelette. If you have any serious allergies,...
Read moreWe ate in the hotel last night because it was raining, we both had the Potato Chip Crusted Cod. It was fairly tasty and cooked to perfection. The mash potatoes were incredibly creamy and the broccolini, was well, broccolini and slightly overcooked.We splurged and had the Medusa Old Vine Zinfandel, it was $73 and I was glad we did it, it was great.
Service had the potential to be poor, our server was a young lady that works outside at the pool deck bar and didn't really know which way was up, however Frank Margiotti and the floor manager Peter kept an eye on our table and pulled a save every time it was needed.
I love the decor, it is freshly remodeled and they have some really comfortable seats, Kathy and I found a little loveseat so that is where we asked to be seated.
I ate lunch off the room service menu for all five days I was there and it was pretty good, had the steak and cheese sandwich and the asian salad which I added salmon to multiple times, didn't even bother with the dressing there are so many tasty things in the salad, even did the clam chowder once,...
Read moreThis restaurant is perfect. They made me an omelette exactly how I like it. The staff were fantastic and cooked the omelette on site for me. They made me a real nice ice coffe as well.
The seating area was quite and relaxing. Everything was clean and a more elegant experience with cloth napkins.
Prices were on the high end, but I was told that I would have to travel about a mile to find another decent breakfast joint.
The family did not want to leave the hotel room but they had to go items where I brought a muffin, bacon and a breakfast sandwich up to the room. The breakfast sandwich was very delicious, tasty and very filling. The bacon and eggs were plentiful and way better then the local DD.
The muffin. Was real tasty but was an average consistency as to what one would expect from a muffin sitting in a case.
We were told upon entering the hotel that we had $10 off if we ate here,but upon exiting they said it was only for dinner.
Over all we would eat here again as there are plenty of seats, the service was top notch and the eating area is...
