Very nice room, fine enough service. Horrible food. This place once was considered the best in the valley. But it's now a really awful chain restaurant. It was taken over by a group that operates a restaurant in a Macy's back east. Which would explain the dreadful food. Had the sliced steak recently. Oversauced. Amateurly done. Was so sick that night, I couldn't sleep. Figured it was an off night for the kitchen. Went back to give it another try (it's in the neighborhood). My God. The food was so terrible, I couldn't believe it. Had the roasted chicken. Overcooked. Dried out. No taste. Nothing. Friend had the lobster ravioli (was described as bigger than an appetizer, smaller than an entree). You got a plate the size of a saucer with five teeny tiny ravioli in a sauce that tasted like it was made with Nutrasweet. Hideous! To paraphrase the Woody Allen joke, the food was so awful and the portion was so small. We laughed when it was brought to the table. I've never had food this bad in a restaurant that was at one time noted for their cuisine. Don't be fooled by the charming decor. This place has lost it. Big time! Big, big, rip-off coasting on former glory.
