    Four of us went for breakfast on Christmas day. We were looking for an upscale restaurant for our traditional breakfast out with another couple. I did not realize that it would be a price-fix menu. Because of the limited menu items and dietary limitations, I needed to invent an egg with vegetable dish. Their country breakfast had eggs, sausage, potatoes, and toast. But since I did not eat sausage and they offered no gluten-free bread, I needed to think fast about whether I wanted to eat breakfast for $38. I asked the server if we could add vegetables to make an omelet. The chef created a delicious meal of eggs with spinach, onions, and mushrooms, a serving of baby-roasted potatoes, and a side of fruit substituted for the toast. It was fantastic.

    Food was very good as were the menu options. Food and drinks came relatively quick. Servers were busy so didn’t get coffee refills until leaving. Okay so it’s winter, but missed sitting outdoors. Having a hard time adjusting to menu inflation $.

    Our experiapence was colored by the terrible seating we received. First we were offered a table for two which we would have had to squeeze into. The. We were offered a table near an outside door. We were assured that the door would not be used, however it was used three times during our meal. This was particularly irritating as there were open 4 tops the entire time we were there.

    Started off with a miss, sat 20 min without a greeting and water. But once we were served everything was flawless after that. We will be back

    What a lovely venue. Service was very good. I had the Huevos Rancheros, my husband had the ham eggs Benedict and the fruit bowl. The Huevos were not the best. The tortillas were not crispy, but soggy. Also, there was a STRONG Rosemary flavor to about half of the huevos, as if they had a rosemary infused oil that spilled on to half of the huevos. Not good. My husband's Benedict utilized the Chipotle hollandaise sauce on one half of the Benedict (not the other - weird) which was spicy, even though the menu said it was a lemon hollandaise sauce. My husband cannot tolerate spice. Also, the potatoes served with the Benedict were STRONGLY flavored with Rosemary, and were inedible (IMHO). Maybe we went on an off day. The venue itself is lovely. I think they need a new chef, however.

    Excellent service! Outdoor seating is comfortable and lovely--felt like the French countryside. Macro bowl ingredients were deliciously fresh and carefully presented; prosciutto sandwich was tasty and fresh; fries were excellent. GF options and brunch available on lunch menu. A winner!

    I saw a sign at check in desk at the restaurant that stated "please be seated and yor server will be with you". I sat down and waited for 20 minutes and no one come out to seat me. After 5 minutes passed my reservation time, I walked into the seating area and waited another 5 minutes standing there until a server notices me. I told her that I have reservation at 12:30 PM. She told me that there are no outdoor seating available and that I can sit at any table indoor. I never been to this restaurant previously and I feel a bit turn off by no-one available to seat me when I got to the restaurant. The food was good. Nice outdoor space. Interior of the restaurant was ordinary.

    I would like to highlight that Paul Morales, the F&B manager at the resort, was exceptional. The food was excellent and the ambiance was outstanding. We will be back again soon.
