The restaurant is very nicely decorated. When we arrived we were immediately seated and our waitress was very attentive. I ordered the champion burger with fries, and my son got chicken tenders with a side of fries. The food came out very well presented. As far as flavor though that's where it ended. My son's tenders looked like frozen Tyson from the grocery store. My burgers patty was obviously frozen before cooking. Fries were good. This wasn't as good as we could have gotten at a chain restaurant at half the price. But in this area, your options are very limited.
The food was good, but the service was unforgivable. I ordered room service the first night and received what looked like a lunch portion of food for nearly $60. I decided to dine in on my second night, and it was a mistake. From the moment I approached to the hostess desk, where a manager and two staff members stood huddled over the seating chart, it was as if I was an unwelcome interruption.
At one point late in my meal, when my Stella Artois had reached room temperature and there wasn't a drop of sweat on the glass, I took a sip and placed the glass closer to me. The waitress spotted this seemingly from across the room and, in a huff, came over to move my glass back to the napkin, which I could only describe as the napkin version of 1 ply toilet paper. It had been soaked through from the moment she placed the drink on the table. I watched her do this again to a man at the table next to me, who was just as confused. If the management has encouraged and/or doesn't see a problem with this behavior, then I don't know what to say. It's extremely off-putting.
I also watched the manager lead a guest to a table near me that was covered in spilled salt and food particles. The guest said, "Can you at least clean the table off?" and the manager proceeded to stand quietly, craning her neck around the room to look for someone else to clean it. She finally broke the deafening silence by saying, "Well, that guy made a huge mess." As if you wouldn't need to wipe down the table otherwise?
If you find yourself stranded here, I recommend the she-crab soup. But I really just recommend you don't go.

Went this place to meet up with an old friend. We love so much in our old business.
Nice place for a business meeting.
Will definitely come again.

I asked for a well-done burger because I seen someone post a picture of their burger being slightly pink. Turns out, my burger was cooked the same way. Burger also lacked seasoning. My fries were good though!!
Pretty nice place. Not much else to eat around the hotel, so this is it. Food was decent. Waiter was friendly. A little overpriced for what the food is, but still a decent meal. They close in the middle of the afternoon, so be aware of that.
The $15 pretzel was pretty good.

While the service was top notch and attentive, I was not impressed with the food. The burger was cooked to my specifications and was adequate. But, at $20, I expected more. The patty seemed to be frozen rather than hand made from ground beef. Seasoning was rather bland as well.
There's not much else within walking distance of the hotels, so I feel like there isn't a lot of motivation for this restaurant to excel.

Great service deserves a 5, price point not so much, but fits with the area. Double drink $24, 9 wings $17. The wings were great but served with a purchased blue cheese, smooth blue cheese. Companionship priceless.
This is the best hotel restaurant I've dined at...for any Marriott property. I've been here twice now, and on both occasions had a great dinner.
The service is really good...the staff is really friendly...and even when it's very busy, everyone is engaged with you. Great service from Lynette.
I ordered the country style grilled chicken fingers as my appetizer and the grilled stack salmon for the main course. Both times...it's been incredible.
