Fantastic steak salad at 300. Expect the best at Hyatt--they deliver. Thank you, Hyatt Regency.

I recently had my daughter's christening to this place & i'll only give 3 stars because the management didn't satisfy our expectations. The food was good but the problem was the place where the food located was far from where the guests seated (because they renovated the place). The decors are not so inviting. Actually I had my son's christening here too 2 years ago and the management that time did a very good job. I prefer the old management because they were very careful in details when it comes to parties/occasions. So if you want to have a celebration here make sure to tell every details that you want on the special day.

The service was great but the food was terrible. Very overpriced for the quality. Go anywhere else!

Great atmosphere, good service and the food is not bad either. Would definitely recommend a meal here!
Just like Yelp says. A-OK. Would I go out of my way to dine at this place? No. But giving any hotel restaurant 3 stars is something that I'd consider an honor (for them at least). I had the crab dip soup thing (forgot the exact name) which was great, although could use a little more crab. What was a bit dissapointing was the chessapeak chicken. I was expecting a grilled or pan-seared chicken breast. What I got was something that looked, tasted, and felt boiled. Yuck. If they cooked the chicken better, I probably would've given it one more star. The service was quick at least, and the overall ambiance of the restaurant is nice.

We were staying at the Hyatt and after a busy day decided to stay close for dinner. We had the shrimp ceviche appetizer and it was delicious. I had the chicken special which was a nice portion of sliced chicken breast, roasted potatoes and broccolini. The meal was also yummy. My son had the roasted chicken which was not really to his liking as it was a very small portion, with skin and the bone. The service was top notch and all in all we really enyoyed ourselves.
probably the best restaurant in Baltimore Inner harbor area, the steak was good, the crab cakes are awesome! Not to mention the great service, we had a very friendly waiter! Wine selection was great! I give this place 10 stars if I could, awesome service, good food, great ambience , i'll definitely come back when i'm in the area again. P.S. once you check in for the first time they will give you Free Appetizer and its not cheap portions...thank you again Bistro 300 :)

I love the atmosphere here. Very calming. We came here for lunch during Restaurant Week - I can't say that I would ever come here otherwise because the food is pretty pricey - but RW was a great deal. The crab cakes were fantastic (and I don't even like crab), as was the burger. Our desserts were less than awesome, but they were more of a bonus on the meal anyway. Would've been upset if we'd actually paid full price for them. The waitstaff was also great, and though there were few other diners, they were friendly. It was really, really hard to find, but I think it was just because the hotel's lobby was under construction. Overall, I would recommend this for Restaurant Week or if you don't care about how much you spend!

I was disappointed by the service my friend and I received at this restaurant. It was a Friday night and there was barely anyone in the restaurant which didn't bother us at all and we assumed as a result the service would be great. Sadly, not the case. The waiter was horrible. First, we had to ask for menus, then we had to ask what the specials were, then when my friend asked if there were any drinks that the bar was especially known for the waiter responded by saying they were all popular! When she ordered a drink and taste it, she asked the waiter a few questions he became irritated and went back to the bar and brought her a new one...He then was about to take the fruits from the first drink with his hands and put them on the new drink! My friend then asked him if she could keep the drink menu so she could look it over and perhaps order a second drink...he told her no! It got really funny after that......shortly thereafter we had a new waiter. The new waiter was friendly and when we asked him what happened to the other waiter, he told us he went home.....but he didn't. He was lurking in the background! In any event, the new waiter was very pleasant and polite. He brought us bread...which of course the other waiter didn't. Bottom line, the second waiter was more pleasant, explained the menu and brought us drinks without any rudeness all the while the first waiter sat in a chair in the back of the room....needless to say, it was a strange experience. The burger was yum.

I went here during Baltimore's Restaurant Week on a nice evening date. I'm not sure why I chose to come to Bistro 300, given that it is secluded on the third floor of the Hyatt, but I do not think I'll be back. That is not to say that the food was bad. The food was fine. However, I search for the best, not mediocrity. I had several complaints about the meal. First, the "cajun" sauce that was supposed to come atop the salmon was actually just a spicy marinara sauce. It had to be removed to make the fish edible. Second, the menu called for green beans to accompany the salmon. Bistro 300 had, unfortunately, neglected to resupply the pantry, so our waiter substituted asparagus for the green beans. Finally, like the green beans, the salted caramel cake was unavailable, so we were offered cheesecake instead. Never one to turn down cheesecake, I ordered it. As the waiter brought it out, I instantly recognized the Bistro 300 cheesecake to be the very same you can buy at the grocery store in a Sara Lee box. On the positive side, I liked the spicy chicken pasta and the pink panther (aka watermelon mojito). Being seated next to the indoor fountain is tranquil too.

I found out about this place through restaurant.com . I had a $15 coupon to use. It's an awesome little spot on the 3rd floor of the Hyatt Regency that I think is unknown or overlooked by Baltimore city residents. The staff seemed really excited to have new customers so the service was impeccable. They checked on us regularly and our food came quickly and was fresh and tasty! I suggest the calamari as an appetizer and ask for their bread and olive dip.

We ate here because it was convenient- we are staying in the hotel for a convention. They are toting a new menu but it is VERY limited. For dinner I had the mushroom ravioli. The taste was good but the pasta was doughy. Breakfast the next day we tried the buffet. BIG disappointment. The waiter mentioned omelets - I thought he meant an omelet station but that was not the case. Usual breakfast buffet, powdered eggs, over crisp bacon, greasy potatos. To add insult to injury the good was cold by the time you got back to the table because of the huge overhead fans circulating. We've eaten outside the hotel ever since and have no plans to eat there the rest if the week.

I can only review for breakfast, but I will say that I was pleasantly surprised. Came here on a THursday around 8 AM for a client breakfast. Usually I go in expecting a buffet, perhaps a lame continental breakfast and mediocre coffee. I was surprised to have attentive wait staff, many options for both buffet and a la carte and I had my tea pot full always. I had the greek wrap with egg whites and some sort of tzatziki sauce. It was amazing. Comforting, not heavy. Delicious! Great option for breakfast that's not ordinary, with a nice atmosphere.

First off, this place is expensive, so expect to drop thirty on just crabcakes alone. The total bill for a dinner for 2 costed eighty bucks. that being said this food was amazing and there was enough of it to feed 4 grown men so be prepared to take home leftovers. The crap dip appetizer was amazing; there must have been a full stick of butter and a cup of heavy cream coupled with large chunks of crab throughout. My dinner was the crab cake platter which came with 2 crab cakes the size of baseballs that were 95% crab, 5% filling. I had a side of bland mashed potatoes but they were drizzled in a fantastic brown gravy that provided all needed flavor. My lady friend had the Chicken oscar, 3 large chicken breats with about 2 large crabs full of meat all over it. Then they threw in a complementary dessert (cus it was restaurant week and they had extra) that was divine. Some lemon rasberry sorbet shot topped with a cream served next to a plate full of berries and whipped cream. We ate at 9pm at night and werent hungry again until 4pm the next day (and Im not a thin guy that skips meals, I eat 3 large round meals a day). We ate here using a restaurant dot com coupon and saved 25 so it helped, but I didnt care about the price since this food was so amazing. Did I mention the uber helpful, attentive, and nice service we got? At one point in our meal the chef came out to ask us how we liked our meal, thats when she said she will throw some free desserts in, such a nice lady!

I ordered the Mediterranean salad for lunch. Open dining area in Hyatt attractive and quiet with some jazz fusion music in the background. The waitress was kind and attentive and I always had a full water glass the basil vinaigrette was incredible.

Nice subtle ambiance. Ordered food late in the evening around 11pm and those they make sere all mistakes causing me to revise my order twice, the bartender/ waiter was more than super accommodating. I appreciated his efforts to correct the wrong.

Waiter Said was the best from all my experience. I used to work at Hyatt Regency upper floor restaurant. I usually order sea food and Baltimore is famous for crab cakes, that what I had. Food was great. We came 45 min before dinner starts, so Said went to kitchen and was able to order for us salads and wine, so we did not have to wait. Nice, relaxing place in the middle of Downtown Baltimore.

I've been here twice -- service was exceptional on both occasions. (We had Willie once and Saeed once.) Location is convenient to Camden Yards, downtown, and inner harbor. Ask to get your parking validated if you park in the Hyatt garage. On to the food -- The crab soup is great, definitely worth consideration. Of the entrees, the crab cakes are very good, as is the teriyaki salmon. I'm not usually big on dessert, but the home made twinkie was interesting and bears no resemblance to the mass produced kind! The only downside is, as someone else noted, it really depends what time you go to this restaurant, because the kitchen could be tied up with catering some of the big conferences or they could be understaffed just in general. It's hard to say. I can say that the servers there are some of the most attentive/nicest I've had in town. I will say that if unless you are absolutely in the mood for steak, I'd recommend Bistro 300 over Sullivan's or Morton's (which are closeby on either side of this location).

Normally would not have entered in a hotel restaurant to eat if I was not staying there, however I got a deal on travel zoo for Bistro 300 and brought my fiance' to check it out. It is located on the third floor of the Hyatt. We were a little concerned after checking yelp before hand and then when walking in by the empty tables. But we sat down and gave it a try, and we are really glad we did. Atmosphere: Cool pond and classy decor. Normally I would recommend folks go formal, but can go casual being that it is in a hotel. Service: I could write two pages on how awesome our waiter Said was. The best waiter I have ever had, which said a lot because I was in the service industry years ago. Every dish he recommended was spot on from appetizer to desert. He was attentive, knew the wines, and every time he came by our table seemed like perfect timing. Appetizer: The tomato app was great. It was 4 large pieces of yellow and red tomatoes lightly grilled with balsamic vinaigrette. The calamari was decent, large portion of calamari with yellow banana peppers and nice spices. We prefer it a little spicier, but nothing a few red peppers in the sauce would not take care of. Entree: Said told us they have the best crab cakes in Baltimore and we rolled our eyes. But truthfully they were the best I have ever had. My fiance' let me try them, I was lucky. She received 2 HUGE crab cakes. I have never eaten crab cakes with so much crab meat in them before, delicious. I ordered the steak and shrimp. The shrimp and steak were seasoned and cooked perfectly. I was happy with the garlic mashed. It is one of my favorite side dishes. Desert: The apple pastry was almost too much. Recommend sharing the desert, as they are huge and one person can not finish one. The Carmel was rich, and the ice cream tasted great. My stomach hurt from being full after the meal! I have reviewed many restaurants on yelp and let me say this has been one of the best restaurants I have been to in awhile. Of course I have to factor in that I had an awesome deal, about 50% off the meal. All in all 2 apps, 2 entrees, 3 glasses of wine, and 1 desert would have been around $115. Even if I had paid that much for the meal I would still be overwhelmed and pleased with the food and service. The only negative is that when visiting Baltimore, a hotel restaurant in general would not be my first choice. However if you are going to the city for multiple days, or are craving crab cakes there is no other place in Baltimore that is comparable. Make sure you ask for Said, he is the man. I certainly will be going back, and next time people from out of town come to visit and want crab cakes, that is where I will take them.

There was a Travelzoo coupon for this place, so we figured, "Hey, why not?" We visited the bistro during a Saturday evening. The place was grossly understaffed; the two servers who were working were literally running around with sweat dripping off their foreheads. I give them points for their effort in trying to maintain the crowd though. Who knew that a hotel restaurant could be popular. Of course, we also watched more than a few tables walk out without ordering. We weren't in a rush, so we didn't mind the wait. We ordered a crab salad appetizer, which was ok. Nothing special. And for entrees, we were directed to their steak and crab cakes. Neither was bad, but neither were great either. The steak was under-seasoned and the crab cakes were dry. The sides tasted as if they were mass produced - catered-quality. Overall, the entire meal was meh. The place was fine for the discounted price we paid. However, we probably won't be back.

Located in the Hyatt Regency Baltimore. This cafe/bar area is pretty cool (for being in a hotel). The staff is nice. The first night I hit up the bar area . Got a few drinks while watching the olympics. Met some cool people (some local / some tourists). The next day I came back for brunch. For a flat fee they have an AYCE buffet w/ Pancakes (just ask your sever). The food was very good. The staff was very friendly. This is a cool place to sit and relax and have a drink if you don't feel like going outside and dealing w/ the crowds of tourists.

We stayed in the hotel and were too tired from traveling to go out our first night in B-more. Our waiter was fan-freaking-tastic AND the food was pretty good. Definitely better than I anticipated based on the reviews. I got crab cakes. They were yummy!

I came to Bistro 300 with coworkers today for the restaurant week lunch. Everything was delicious (pan seared crab cake, Bistro burger, & salted caramel cake). Loved it even more because of the fantastic service. Said was our waiter... Best waiter I've ever had! I will definitely be coming back and requesting to sit in Said's section. :)

We've stayed in this hotel a few times as well as visited Bistro 300 for a quick bite and drinks. It's been fantastic each time, and this time was no different! The service is friendly, quick, and definitely helpful. Never have had a rude waitress/waiter and they have always more than graciously given us "tips" on what their favorite is..and each time it has NOT disappointed! Loved the crab cakes...I have to say, when I'm out visiting family and friends from New England, any places I've gone in Bmore is fabulous when it comes to seafood..and this time, was again, fantastic. Definitely will be back again in the next few months!!

We rolled in the door here fairly late here on a Friday night. After checking in and dropping our stuff off in the room, we headed down to the 3rd floor of the Hyatt Regency to test out the Salon 300 Bistro. Overall, we were OK with it but not tickled. Wait staff was friendly and prompt; never had to spend too much time waiting for anything. However, I should note that it was late and there weren't too many people there. I had two Tanqueray and tonics. Mama had a mojito. Both drinks ok, no problems. I started with cream of crab soup. Decent flavor, decent hunks of meat; no complaints. My main course was the Mushroom Ravioli with artichoke hearts and spinach. My wife's main course was the Chicken Oscar, with asparagus and hollandaise. Each was ok, but not stellar. Kids had macaroni and cheese, which was serviceable. No desserts ordered. This place was alright, but wasn't any great shakes if you know what I mean. It filled the bill for a late Friday night, with two kids in tow, and not looking to go anywhere.

Breakfast buffet was good. Service was good. SAID was a great server, although on the second day for breakfast he charged one of the 3 kids as an adult. I did not argue it but I don't think it was an honest mistake.

So disappointed!! Read the Yelp reviews from others. Waited at the host area. Made an OT reservation. Cheerful host sat me down and told me that my server should be with me soon. 7 minute went by, no server. Another 5 minute, checked my OT account, still not pressed. Saw several severs in their station. This was for an early dinner. I got up and left. Needless to say, I will be saying something to the GM considering I already had a couple of bad experiences at this hotel before I even started work!! I decided to take the club manager's suggestion and go to Rusty Scupper! Hell with this place!!

The breakfast is terrible. The eggs and sausage have a hard to describe "off" taste, and the croissant are hard and dry. The coffee was burnt, and the French toast was cold. All this for $16.95 per person. Avoid.

Service is very good but the quality of food (dinner menu) is lacking. I ordered the mushroom ravioli and it looked like it was sitting out for a while. The salad was also not washed thoroughly and I found a bug in my lettuce. I wasn't too bothered about that, I was more disappointed in my ravioli.

To be perfectly honest, I'm usually not overly impressed by hotel dining venues, but Bistro 300 is an exception. I went to lunch here with a colleague and we both enjoyed ourselves. I can't speak to the dinner service, but as for lunch the menu is not at all extensive, but has enough options as long as you're interested in an entrée salad or sandwich of some kind. The portion sizes were generous and I enjoyed my crab cake sandwich. The restaurant wasn't very crowded, but it was the middle of the week and nothing much seemed to be going on in the hotel/area. However, the server was fairly attentive and the atmosphere was nice. Still the food was good, even if it wasn't especially inventive, and some of the prices are a little steep--most of the salads are almost 20 dollars, for example. Other than that, Bistro 300 is classy but casual enough for a quick lunch and I'd certainly return.

Our server Willie was extremely attentive, the Seabass with wild mushrooms and asparagus were perfectly sautéed leaving the asparagus still brightly colored yet tender with perfectly done mushrooms, bursting with flavor I also highly recommend the Moorenko ice-cream. Tip: there's an organic kids menu and healthy organic options on the regular menu.

I ordered the Mediterranean salad for lunch. Open dining area in Hyatt attractive and quiet with some jazz fusion music in the background. The waitress was kind and attentive and I always had a full water glass the basil vinaigrette was incredible.

Nice subtle ambiance. Ordered food late in the evening around 11pm and those they make sere all mistakes causing me to revise my order twice, the bartender/ waiter was more than super accommodating. I appreciated his efforts to correct the wrong.

Waiter Said was the best from all my experience. I used to work at Hyatt Regency upper floor restaurant. I usually order sea food and Baltimore is famous for crab cakes, that what I had. Food was great. We came 45 min before dinner starts, so Said went to kitchen and was able to order for us salads and wine, so we did not have to wait. Nice, relaxing place in the middle of Downtown Baltimore.

Neat, good lighting. Great service. Got the Crab Cake eggs benidect here for breakfast and it was outright amazing. The staff was very attentive and friendly. Even the chef came out to make sure that everything was to my liking.

I've been here twice -- service was exceptional on both occasions. (We had Willie once and Saeed once.) Location is convenient to Camden Yards, downtown, and inner harbor. Ask to get your parking validated if you park in the Hyatt garage. On to the food -- The crab soup is great, definitely worth consideration. Of the entrees, the crab cakes are very good, as is the teriyaki salmon. I'm not usually big on dessert, but the home made twinkie was interesting and bears no resemblance to the mass produced kind! The only downside is, as someone else noted, it really depends what time you go to this restaurant, because the kitchen could be tied up with catering some of the big conferences or they could be understaffed just in general. It's hard to say. I can say that the servers there are some of the most attentive/nicest I've had in town. I will say that if unless you are absolutely in the mood for steak, I'd recommend Bistro 300 over Sullivan's or Morton's (which are closeby on either side of this location).

Normally would not have entered in a hotel restaurant to eat if I was not staying there, however I got a deal on travel zoo for Bistro 300 and brought my fiance' to check it out. It is located on the third floor of the Hyatt. We were a little concerned after checking yelp before hand and then when walking in by the empty tables. But we sat down and gave it a try, and we are really glad we did. Atmosphere: Cool pond and classy decor. Normally I would recommend folks go formal, but can go casual being that it is in a hotel. Service: I could write two pages on how awesome our waiter Said was. The best waiter I have ever had, which said a lot because I was in the service industry years ago. Every dish he recommended was spot on from appetizer to desert. He was attentive, knew the wines, and every time he came by our table seemed like perfect timing. Appetizer: The tomato app was great. It was 4 large pieces of yellow and red tomatoes lightly grilled with balsamic vinaigrette. The calamari was decent, large portion of calamari with yellow banana peppers and nice spices. We prefer it a little spicier, but nothing a few red peppers in the sauce would not take care of. Entree: Said told us they have the best crab cakes in Baltimore and we rolled our eyes. But truthfully they were the best I have ever had. My fiance' let me try them, I was lucky. She received 2 HUGE crab cakes. I have never eaten crab cakes with so much crab meat in them before, delicious. I ordered the steak and shrimp. The shrimp and steak were seasoned and cooked perfectly. I was happy with the garlic mashed. It is one of my favorite side dishes. Desert: The apple pastry was almost too much. Recommend sharing the desert, as they are huge and one person can not finish one. The Carmel was rich, and the ice cream tasted great. My stomach hurt from being full after the meal! I have reviewed many restaurants on yelp and let me say this has been one of the best restaurants I have been to in awhile. Of course I have to factor in that I had an awesome deal, about 50% off the meal. All in all 2 apps, 2 entrees, 3 glasses of wine, and 1 desert would have been around $115. Even if I had paid that much for the meal I would still be overwhelmed and pleased with the food and service. The only negative is that when visiting Baltimore, a hotel restaurant in general would not be my first choice. However if you are going to the city for multiple days, or are craving crab cakes there is no other place in Baltimore that is comparable. Make sure you ask for Said, he is the man. I certainly will be going back, and next time people from out of town come to visit and want crab cakes, that is where I will take them.

There was a Travelzoo coupon for this place, so we figured, "Hey, why not?" We visited the bistro during a Saturday evening. The place was grossly understaffed; the two servers who were working were literally running around with sweat dripping off their foreheads. I give them points for their effort in trying to maintain the crowd though. Who knew that a hotel restaurant could be popular. Of course, we also watched more than a few tables walk out without ordering. We weren't in a rush, so we didn't mind the wait. We ordered a crab salad appetizer, which was ok. Nothing special. And for entrees, we were directed to their steak and crab cakes. Neither was bad, but neither were great either. The steak was under-seasoned and the crab cakes were dry. The sides tasted as if they were mass produced - catered-quality. Overall, the entire meal was meh. The place was fine for the discounted price we paid. However, we probably won't be back.

Located in the Hyatt Regency Baltimore. This cafe/bar area is pretty cool (for being in a hotel). The staff is nice. The first night I hit up the bar area . Got a few drinks while watching the olympics. Met some cool people (some local / some tourists). The next day I came back for brunch. For a flat fee they have an AYCE buffet w/ Pancakes (just ask your sever). The food was very good. The staff was very friendly. This is a cool place to sit and relax and have a drink if you don't feel like going outside and dealing w/ the crowds of tourists.

We stayed in the hotel and were too tired from traveling to go out our first night in B-more. Our waiter was fan-freaking-tastic AND the food was pretty good. Definitely better than I anticipated based on the reviews. I got crab cakes. They were yummy!
(4)James B.
Ate lunch today and had the cream of crab soup and it was amazing. Perfect for this cold weather. The Natty Boh burger is surprisingly rich. We will definitely visit again.
(5)Patrick D.
The tomato soup with grilled sandwich was absolutely fantastic! Our server was friendly and attentive to our needs. I wish the music was a little bit louder but the overall ambience of the restaurant was very appealing and pleasant.
(5)Charles D.
The service was impeccable. our waiters name was "SAID" he was perfect. The food was GREAT. This is my favorite restaurant in Baltimore.
(5)Patty E.
I came to Bistro 300 with coworkers today for the restaurant week lunch. Everything was delicious (pan seared crab cake, Bistro burger, & salted caramel cake). Loved it even more because of the fantastic service. Said was our waiter... Best waiter I've ever had! I will definitely be coming back and requesting to sit in Said's section. :)

We've stayed in this hotel a few times as well as visited Bistro 300 for a quick bite and drinks. It's been fantastic each time, and this time was no different! The service is friendly, quick, and definitely helpful. Never have had a rude waitress/waiter and they have always more than graciously given us "tips" on what their favorite is..and each time it has NOT disappointed! Loved the crab cakes...I have to say, when I'm out visiting family and friends from New England, any places I've gone in Bmore is fabulous when it comes to seafood..and this time, was again, fantastic. Definitely will be back again in the next few months!!
(4)Allison C.
Wow! What an experience! Our waiter Said (Sa-yeed) was exceptional! We went to the this restaurant twice during our stay (dinner and breakfast the next morning). Said anticipated all of our needs and gave us a wonderful experience. Will be returning to this restaurant and hotel again.

We rolled in the door here fairly late here on a Friday night. After checking in and dropping our stuff off in the room, we headed down to the 3rd floor of the Hyatt Regency to test out the Salon 300 Bistro. Overall, we were OK with it but not tickled. Wait staff was friendly and prompt; never had to spend too much time waiting for anything. However, I should note that it was late and there weren't too many people there. I had two Tanqueray and tonics. Mama had a mojito. Both drinks ok, no problems. I started with cream of crab soup. Decent flavor, decent hunks of meat; no complaints. My main course was the Mushroom Ravioli with artichoke hearts and spinach. My wife's main course was the Chicken Oscar, with asparagus and hollandaise. Each was ok, but not stellar. Kids had macaroni and cheese, which was serviceable. No desserts ordered. This place was alright, but wasn't any great shakes if you know what I mean. It filled the bill for a late Friday night, with two kids in tow, and not looking to go anywhere.

Breakfast buffet was good. Service was good. SAID was a great server, although on the second day for breakfast he charged one of the 3 kids as an adult. I did not argue it but I don't think it was an honest mistake.
(2)LKT T.
So disappointed!! Read the Yelp reviews from others. Waited at the host area. Made an OT reservation. Cheerful host sat me down and told me that my server should be with me soon. 7 minute went by, no server. Another 5 minute, checked my OT account, still not pressed. Saw several severs in their station. This was for an early dinner. I got up and left. Needless to say, I will be saying something to the GM considering I already had a couple of bad experiences at this hotel before I even started work!! I decided to take the club manager's suggestion and go to Rusty Scupper! Hell with this place!!
(1)Sheri D.
Service among the best. Food lacking any imagination and crab cake was fried and greasy.
(2)Paul T.
The breakfast is terrible. The eggs and sausage have a hard to describe "off" taste, and the croissant are hard and dry. The coffee was burnt, and the French toast was cold. All this for $16.95 per person. Avoid.
(1)Marfel L.
Service is very good but the quality of food (dinner menu) is lacking. I ordered the mushroom ravioli and it looked like it was sitting out for a while. The salad was also not washed thoroughly and I found a bug in my lettuce. I wasn't too bothered about that, I was more disappointed in my ravioli.
