Sat a party of 6. The food took a while to get to our table and the service was a bit lacking. Wasn't very busy and they didn't come by our table very often. The food was pretty good. Did enjoy watching the Armchair Tourist on their TV. Probably a better place to sit for drinks rather than food.

The food was great and overall it was a good experience. The prices are a bit high but considering the current economy, it was understandable. Our server was wonderful with just the right amount of attentiveness. Thanks Fire + Water. It was a good experience.
Right off the main hotel lobby. Did not realize this when I booked. Small. Feels like a fancy sports bar that no one drinks at during the day. The hotels washrooms ,which are across the lobby, have freezing cold water coming out of the taps. We let the water run. It was like an ice Bath for your hands. Awful. For the Marriott I expected at least hot water. The food was tasty. Wouldn't go back due to location and the fact that it's a hotel lobby “place to eat”.

Nice quiet place. The girl server Teresa of the happy hour did an excellent job, taking extra mile to meet our needs.

Dine around town menus help showcase local eateries and are an exciting time for me. I have yo say though this one was a real let down. I had the salad, salmon and apple crumble. The salad was confused. An assemblage of delicious pieces: candied pecans, beets, hummus and fresh greens, but together the flavor seemed to lack any sembelance of cohesion. The salmon eas very overcooked and dry and that whole dish was masked with a layer of overwhelming sweetness. Including the potatos which almost tasted likr lemon pie, which was incredibly strange. Finally, the apple crumble tasted almost exclusively of almond flour and was extremely dry. The flavor was that of poor quality marzipan. My partner had the pork belly. This was truely delicious and a solid choice. We both loved it. Her beef short rib was ok, but had a fair amount of very dry edges. Finally, her mouse was not amazing. It was more of a mouse cake, tasted of mediocre chocolate and had an unpleasant gelatinous texture. Would not recommend their dinr around town menu. Cannot speak to their usual quality, but in Victoria everyone gets one chance as we have so much selection.

A fantastic meal. It was dine around so 3 people enjoyed that menu. Food was lovely and tasty and prices not bad. The cocktails were superb!!!!! Wow! Ask for the cheesecake martini - so delicious! The ambience could be a little more cozy, maybe some area rugs on the floor.m and close the curtains to the below level view of sidewalk and hotels. Otherwise a must try! We were pleasantly surprised.
Our server was excellent, however it seemed like there wasn't enough staff to handle the volume of guests which limited the amount of “quality time” she was able to spend with us. The three course meal was generously portioned and excellent quality, save for one dessert (apple crisp) that seemed dried out. Overall, it was a positive dining experience but eating out has become an unaffordable, once in a while luxury - even at Dine Around discount prices.
Right from the start, it was fabulous. We were seated by the Maître d', our server, Boban, introduced himself and we received 2 glasses of bubbly and well wishes for our anniversary. Drinks and food came in perfect timing. Even the maître d came by and wished us a Happy Anniversary! Food and drinks were great! Would definitely come back!

For a hotel restaurant this is excellent.The portions are very generous, and well prepared.Limited but well considered menu.House wine is fine.Informal rather than stuffy.

Excellent salmon, veggies, salad, and desserts. Waitstaff is top-notch. Room gets a bit loud if busy, but otherwise, we'd highly recommend ?

Kindly update your menu to the actual menu you use when dining when directed to the link of the reservation. You could also consider having a pastries counter for a take out gift. Overall, food is great.
