Great environment. Enjoy the live music. It’s a good place to go for lunch and to have some drinks. The bartender was super friendly and funny. I got the jerk pasta and didn’t care too much for it. 6/10 it was too sweet in my opinion but the mimosas were really good. Will be back to try other menu items!

I didn't eat so I can't comment on the food. Otherwise they treated me and my out of town work group with nothing but respect and class! I recommend anyone who wants a professional and proper cocktail and lovely environment to enjoy a night out or afternoon martini this is your spot!!!

Every time I go here they have ONE single person serving and bartending. Service is terrible. Super disappointing because it could be such a cool spot. They never have coffee available either which is baffling to me. Please rebrand or do something ?

Ordered Salad with Salmon. It was delicious. We were sitting outdoors and there was a fire pit to keep us warm. It was a cooler night for people living in Huntsville, but not for a person who is used to this type of weather. The ambiance was mellow and peaceful. The staff was courteous and the food was delicious. I could not ask for more perfect dinner than this. Loved the restaurant's outdoor setting, the food and the staff. Thank you!!!

The service, food, and drinks suck. Should have just stayed at home. Smh. Never again

Waitress never came back to the table. Both salads were wilted and both had several brown pieces of lettuce in the mix. Seriously overpriced for the quality of food they serve...

A few of my lady friends and I met here after work yesterday. The bartender, Daniel, came and put the menu on the table and said to let him know when we were ready to order. After looking over the menu we kept trying to get his attention, which shouldn't have been difficult because there was only 6 other people in the bar, sitting in 3 couples, all on the same side of the bar as us. He even brought drinks to the table right next to us and didn't even glance our way. My friend eventually called out to him and he finally came over about 5 minutes after that, then proceeded to blame me for it taking so long by saying "This time of day is typically bar service only and I told the young lady to let me know when you were ready." It wasn't busy, so checking in with a table should not be an issue. Blaming the customer, however, is a giant issue for me.Christian came on while we were still there. He brought out our food, spoke to us, offered and brought new drinks, smiled, and made us feel like we were actually welcome there. He was a joy to sit with.The only reason I may come back here is because the view was great. I recommend, though, that you seriously look at the attitude of your staff and how they treat customers.
I am staying at this hotel, so I went to the restaurant and ordered coconut shrimp and sautéed spinach. I was informed they were out of spinach and offered another option so I excepted. I was sitting at the bar so I didn’t expect the food would take that long and I’m not one to usually complain or be impatient.An hour goes by and I still do not have my food so I asked how much longer it would be. I was told they would check on it and would not be charged for it. Steven came back and told me they ran out of the shrimp as I was waiting for it.I went down to ask the front desk for the manager and was told there was not one on staff tonight.I’m a nice person that believes you treat people how you want to be treated but this whole experience is/was unacceptable. I travel every week for work and will not be staying here again as they do not care for their customers and do not offer a quality service.

The food was really good. The coconut shrimp appetizer and shrimp/sausage cheesy grits were absolutely delicious. The French toast was nothing fancy, but good nonetheless. Their expresso martini was the best I’ve ever had. The bartender was the only person working outside of the kitchen which made the wait time very challenging on Mother’s Day.

Food was good, but we were charged more than what was priced on the menu. My wife and I only went here because not many other places had vegetarian friendly options and we were staying at the hotel anyway. The tables were dirty so we sat at the bar which was also a bit dirty. The bartender looked at us multiple times before acknowledging us. He seemed busy, but even a "Hello" would have been a nice start. Once our food came out, it was just placed down next to us. I'm not sure if the guy who put it there was able to speak, but there was not even a follow-up from the bartender to ask if we needed anything or if our food came out okay. The vibe outside was cute and there was an event going on at the park so there was live music we could hear, but the atmosphere was kind of thrown by the lack of customer service this place offered.I definitely wouldn't recommend this place.Vegetarian options: Beyond Burger

Once again this hotel finds away to screw over people and this time my name wasn't on the booking so I know this wasn't targeted towards me it's just bad management at this point. Once again I was in town for the Huntsville Expo. We booked the AC Hotel as soon as the room blocks opened which means we booked it asap last year around September or November can't really remember. Anyways these guys decided to wait the WEEK of the Expo that we lost our hotel room because they over booked by 14 rooms. How is it that we made the list and we were one of the first people to book our room. The right thing to do is they should have went by who booked last and they didn't. It was as if they just randomly picked people to kick out and move them somewhere else. Super unprofessional. When we asked how it was possible we made that list they couldn't provide an answer. They ended up moving us to the Spring Hill hotel which index up being a 10 minute walk to and from the Expo. Idk what's going on at this hotel but it's the second time we somehow got screwed over. Do better guys. 2 years in a row you've got us. Smh!
