This place has the best breakfast ever because every dish you get there is so much food on the plate and it looks gorgeous it’s also not a traditional breakfast it’s a big meal and they put so much effort in making the food then there are also sport shows on the tv’s. Our servers were really nice.The atmosphere is beautiful there is a nice bar and every thing is clean I totally recommend this restaurant if you’re staying in the hotel. This place is awesome!!!Vegetarian options: There are many vegetarian options!Kid-friendliness: There are kid drinks and food

Great little hotel pub.I went on a Monday night, it was wing night. Not a stellar deal - it was $12 for a dozen.The wings themselves were great though, they let you split flavours.I also had a few glasses of wine and the Brussel sprouts. The sprouts were okay, they should choose a different bacon option, the one they use tastes like bacon bits.They have bar snacks that are awesome / mixed nuts that are sweet and salty, one of the favorites of my meal.The service was friendly and quick - it felt like a quiet night and like it was only people from the hotel, but overall a good experience.I would come back if I was to stay at this hotel again, but wouldn’t make my way here otherwise.Kid-friendliness: They do have a restaurant section they allow minors in, but no kids menu that I saw

The restaurant didn't open until 5pm but the wait ended up being worth it. We weren't all that hungry so decided we would share 3 appetizers among the 3 of us. This was great for sharing with a great variety (fried brussel sprouts, crispy cauliflower and loaded fries) which were very tasty and ended up being just the perfect amount!Parking: Small free parking area by entrance to restaurant but lots of parking at hotel entrance and a couple on the street too.

As a family of 5 adults and 2 small children, we had Christmas Eve reservations for this restaurant with a pre made Christmas menu(soup, salad, entree & dessert). 3 of us ordered off the pre done menu, chicken fingers and fries for our toddler and 2 regular menu orders(one due to allergies).We stayed at the restaurant for a total of an hour and 45 minutes. Our waitress took our drink and menu choice orders promptly. One of our group members has a peanut allergy and gluten intolerances. He was unable to order from the Christmas menu due to inability of changes to the meal he wanted because eveything was “pre-made”. Which was fine, he ordered off the main menu something that could accommodate him. We then waited for the next hour and 45 minutes for the soup to come out. Our drinks were never refilled, water was requested and never arrived. Another table of 8 guests had been there 2 hours and had only received their soup. They ended up leaving as they could no longer stay. Another table left while we were there because of the time it was taking for food to come out. We were told over and over it was coming soon, they were understaffed in the kitchen and apologetic. We had requested fries for my toddler multiple times and they never came; a 2.5 year old should not have to wait that long to eat something. And we were patient and understanding to having staffing issues. HOWEVER, after we had sat down, a family table of four came in and sat down. The man seemed to be some sort of owner or hotel manager as he went into the kitchens and was directing the staff on what to do and where to go during his time there. Him and his family were served drinks, all four courses of their meal, refills, extra desserts within 45 minutes of their arrival and had a waiter exclusively to themselves constantly checking on them. All while the rest of the restaurants patrons with reservations were waiting hours for their food to come. We all started chatting amongst ourselves on the floor asking when they had arrived in comparison and had also received none of their food. This was an extremely disappointing experience, especially being Christmas Eve dinner. We ended up getting our soup at the hour 45 mark and the food was terrible. We left and were not made to pay for our fountain drinks or the 2 soups and 1 salad that made it to the table. But by this point it was 7:45 at night and we could not wait any longer to eat supper.

Really slow service due to only one server doubling as server and bartender! The liquor cabinet is locked up probably because they don’t trust their staff! Ordered food and they charge extra for onions on your burger! Meanwhile the burger is $22 as it is! Took forever to get the bill! Won’t be back!

Our “meet” has been in the works for OVER a year…the hotel KNEW how many people would be attending and yet, they were totally understaffed in the kitchen and wait staff…dinner wait times EXCEEDED 1.5 hours and while the food was good and totally UNACCEPTABLE!!

Stood at counter waiting to be seated for 10 minutes. Sat at table for another 15 then they didn't have what was on the menu. Ordered coffee that never came and finally walked out. I am a solo lady and it was like I was invisible.

I phoned the hotel 3x this week to book a reservation for the restaurant for 6 people Friday June 16th and was told by the front desk at the hotel that the restaurant phones were down and that they would be able to accommodate a table for 6 people to walk in. Even 30 minutes before we wanted to be there I called and checked again and was assured that we didn’t need a reservation and that it was slow. When I arrived the restaurant staff told me they could not seat 6 people.. this is the 3rd time I’ve tried to eat there and it’s either been closed or I’ve been turned away. Don’t both going. The rack, jacks place or liberty kitchen are all close and I would recommend going there instead.

A nice bar atmosphere with food and entertainment. We went and it was “wings” night, so wings and salads! They have a full bar so drinks are readily available.

I had breakfast here as a hotel guest. The breakfast voucher for Marriott elite members covers $15 per person, so $30 CAD for the room. You can choose to order entrees from the menu or continental breakfast ($15 CAD) or buffet (available during the weekend for $22 CAD person). The breakfast menu has some good selection, but I think they were a bit overpriced.
