"Incredibly overpriced, especially considering the service. Usually when I’m served a Caesar to share it comes with some kind of sharing utensils, and people often ask if I want fresh cracked black pepper. We waited quite a while until we saw the server again to ask for the pepper after the Caesar was dropped off. The pepper was ground as fine as could be, not nice and chunky and still, no utensils to share were offered, so we just scraped it off of the larger bowl onto our smaller bowls… No chopsticks available for the poki, and since they also sell a sliced tuna, one might expect them to serve both of those dishes with chopsticks.The Caesar lettuce was nice and crunchy, but there were no actual croutons, just powdered croutons, and no Freshly Grated Parmesan flakes, just powdered Parmesan, and some other powdered yellow cheese. The dressing didn’t have a garlic kick or any distinctive anchovy taste….If I’m going to buy food that cost over $100 for an entrée, I want fresh baked croutons and high-quality freshly shaved Parmesan, with an offering of more Parmesan, shaved directly onto my salad and fresh cracked black pepper ground on top table-sideI honestly don’t mind paying a Valet, receiving mediocre service, food, or accommodations, but when they’re trying to sell an iced shellfish tower over $200 and $140 steaks, I would really expect much more.We left after an appetizer and a salad.If this had been a special occasion, like an anniversary or birthday, or if I was eating at a place that I usually couldn’t afford, but was splurging on a date, I would’ve been furious… I literally just left, knowing that they just scam everybody who goes through the hotel and no one cares.Tailor made for:The kind of clientele who has just enough money to splurge, but not enough money to have the sense required to say no to a bad experience.. I estimate their guests are averaging six figures, but not much more.Postscript: I did not even order the lobster bisque I really wanted, because I’ve had incredible lobster bisque, and I was certain it would be foolish to order it…Parking: Valet is for the hotel AND the dinner guests, so good luck getting your car on time, and the server did not ask to take my valet ticket up to the valet, when I asked for for my check."
