This restaurant is located in the lobby of the Sheraton hotel. If you're not familiar with the Sheraton brand, it was once one of the top/nicest hotel chains in the US, but has aged in much the same way that Johnny Carinos has evolved from a fancy date-night dinery to an Italian version of Denny's. If you think you are going to get a fancy experience because this restaurant is in the Sheraton, please adjust your expectations. I wasn't staying in the hotel, and found this location not real easy to get to. The area around the hotel is freeway, oneway streets and other hotel chains so not especially scenic if that's your jam. The hotel itself is showing serious signs of aging. As I walked into the lobby, I didn't see any signs to indicate where the restaurant was. As I walked further in, I saw a few people eating, but it looked like they were sitting at tables you'd find in any hotel lobby. After walking in even further, I eventually found the bar associated with this restaurant but seating was still unclear. I walked to the bar, took a menu and sat myself, hoping for the best. The highlight of this visit was Chris the bartender, server, hostess extraordinaire. He is a genuinely nice person and was very quick with his service. If I ever accidentally go back to this restaurant, I hope to meet him again. I don't drink alcohol, but did have an Arnold Palmer. It was very watered down and after finishing it, I changed to regular lemonade which was much better. For dinner, I started with a bowl of potato "chowder". If you're hoping for a thick, creamy bowl of goodness, this isn't the place to look. I was served a bowl of potato chicken soup. Though it was good in flavor, it was not a chowder by any stretch and only had one small piece of potato in it. For dinner I had the ribeye, which came with 5 spears of asparagus and a dabble of mashed potatoes. The potatoes were served under the steak, so were flat and weren't aesthetically pleasing after Iifted the steak off of them. The asparagus and potatoes did have good flavor, but there was not anything special about them. Likewise, the ribeye had good flavor but there was not anything notable or special about it. For dessert, I had a piece of cheesecake. It was a very large portion but only had a little dressing on it, so by the time I got to the end it was really dry. Also of note, because the lobby and restaurant seem to be merged together, there were a lot of people who seemed attached to some kind of convention or team meeting, just milling around socializing with each other. They were not loud or obnoxious, but it was a little strange and unnerving to have random groups of people standing near my table, or behind me, talking while I was eating. This is probably not the case every day, but worth considering. For the non-alcoholic drinks, soup, steak and dessert, my total came to $74. Overall, the experience was just.... meh. Wouldn't...
Read moreWell......I didn't know a hotel bar/restraunt could serve 5 star food! I ordered the pork chop medium with mashed potatoes and carrots. Unbelievable. I wanted to talk to the chef and see what that molassases based drizzle/sauce was they covered everything with. The pork was thick and moist. What a great cut. The potatoes were unremarkable. The carrots were steamed and still crispy inside with alot of natural carrot flavor that was sweet and not bitter as so many carrots can turn when not cooked properly. A bit pricey was my first impression but would cost you more at a 5 star restraunt. Drinks here will set you back 10 bucks for a rum and coke. Close to the airport so watching planes coming in was a highlight. The open atrium seating was not very cozy. I went on a Sunday so it was quieter than usual which what I was looking for after 13 hours of flying and...
Read moreWe had a partner meet us here yesterday (3/26/2025) and it was a pretty bad experience. When we arrived, we had to wait 30 minutes before a co-worker had to go up and let the waitress know we are ready, since we were never even seen.
The waitress let my co-worker know “she’ll be right there” then proceeded to greet other people and help tables that arrived AFTER us. 30 more minutes go by and we still had not even been seen….After about 1hr and 10 minutes we decided to take our money elsewhere.
I have never really experienced something like this before and it’s sad because we went there based on the good reviews. Oh well, we will never be back nor recommend...
