★★★☆☆ 3.0 Joanne Cerrone · Feb 2026

The food was delicious, but that was the only thing that was outstanding. The service lacked; they took our order and dropped the food off. There were three staff that we saw in the dining room and not one of them checked to see how we were doing. I had to flag someone down to get a refill on my coffee as I was finishing my meal so I ate my food with nothing to drink. We could not understand why the service was so bad and then we figured it out when we received our check. They added 20% gratuity to the bill! Waitstaff aren't going to put any effort in if they know that they are going to get a 20% tip no matter what they do. 15% is the standard rate to start off from IF the service is decent. We always tip well when the service is good. The service here was awful and we won't be back

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Michael · Dec 2025

Had both breakfast and dinner food no issues! But to serve warm can sodas and a glass of ice is tacky(the place is not a hotdog stand). To add 20% gratuity on bill for table under 5 people is a joke.its the hotel restaurant and could not bill to room as well. I always tip 20/30% for service and don’t blame servers for what they have to deal with behind the scenes. 18% is base tip across the board so if your adding 20% to bill and still asking for additional tip on top, I guarantee the servers are getting short changed. 6.40 a warm can of soda is tacky and refills should be free like every other restaurant.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Rachel Kish · Jan 2026

So disappointed in this place. My husband and I stayed overnight for a quick getaway after a bunch of appointments at BCH. We were excited to enjoy a couple of cocktails at the bar but the service and quality was extremely lacking. His scotch was barely filled half way and my lemon drop martini had no sugar rim and no lemon slices and neither was offered. The bartender served my drink first and then 20 minutes went by before he poured my husband’s drink. $46 for TWO drinks! They added a 20% tip too which was very sneaky. The staff should let people know. My husband and I are very generous even when we shouldn’t be and almost left an additional cash tip! Honestly, I want to ask for a partial refund or a gift card. The restaurant and the staff need to be upgraded. If you’re going to charge a

★★★★☆ 4.0 Cam C · Oct 2025

Is the menu exciting? Absolutely not. Is it overpriced? Hell yes. However we had three items. And they were all fantastic. Chicken skewers $15 for two large skewers of juicy chicken marinated in a lemon sauce. A cup of clam chowder that was fantastic and an espresso martini that was on point. A lot of the reviews are concerning but we went on a busy Saturday night and got a quick bite in and out no problem.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 James Lee · Feb 2026

Convenience of location is the only reason I picked this restaurant for a business lunch. The teriyaki shrimp on skewers that I ordered tasted like it was thrice reheated from refrozen shrimp. The space is tight, so don't expect conversational privacy. Fortunately, that probably won't be an issue as this place likely won't be crowded any time of day.
