Medium draft list but with bottle and can options too. Had the cape May double IPA 16 oz. 1. Pepperoni hot honey white pizza - Usually not a fan of white pizza but this was a 12" size pizza that I finished in one go. Cheese was not too heavy but has a nice sweetness a very mild spice. 2. Garlic parm chicken strips - Very flavorful. Comes with truffle fries. The sauce is over the strips. Four pieces which is an ample amount. Overall, good first time here. Highly recommended but salty so drink plenty of fluids. Will be back again to try other food items!

Our group of 3 throughly enjoyed the happy hour specials and pricing as well as the winter specials. Our server (Mike?) was super friendly and attentive. Beverages: Apple pie old fashioned and sangria The sangria was excellent. My husband thought the old fashioned tasted like pure sugar (I guess to be expected for apple pie). Beer was his preferred beverage of choice. App: Chips and queso! --Always a good choice Entrees: Short rib burger, bbq boneless wings, killer b pizza, side salad (for balance). --All throughly enjoyed and would recommend. The pizza was super fresh and the crust was cooked to perfection. Not too soft, not too crunch. (No one wants a soggy pizza). Also noteworthy, the pepperoni cups. :) If you're looking for casual, relaxed sophistication and a good happy hour deal, you've found your spot.

It is a very nice restaurant; Large, but not overbearing. I could see going here either on date night, or with 2 more couples. Our server Patrick was fantastic from the beginning of the night, straight through to the end. He was friendly, and very efficient. Chef/owner Scott came out from the kitchen to greet us and other patrons, and was gracious to everyone. Onto the food. The Duck Tacos and Mussels were very tasty. I think I might put a call into Chef and have him make me a bottle of that Mussels sauce to take home with me. Then came the crisp Caesar Salad, which kept everything bright. To finish, we had the Black Cod and Duck Confit, both of which were very well balanced and cooked perfectly. Oh, and the Guava-glazed Brussels Sprouts were a perfect side. Next time, I want to try one or two of their desserts. All-in-all, we had a great experience, and the night was a success. Chef, see you soon. I might just bring a large mason jar for some sauce!..

We arrived fifteen minutes early and our table was waiting for us. The restaurant was crowed, we had NO wait. The menu was in two parts, the regular menu and a separate specials menu. We started with beverages and a Calamari appetizer which came with either traditional marinara sauce or a delicious balsamic glaze sauce. For the main course, My grown kids had Chicken Parm in a vodka sauce. The portion sizes were huge. They loved it in the restaurant and again the next day. My wife devoured zuppa di pesce, seafood over linguini. I ordered from the specials menu, and had the Veal Chop Tuscany with wild mushrooms and potatoes. It was HUGE. Most patrons left with doggie bags and we were no exceptions. We will be back. (On site parking available)

In fact it was one of the reasons I chose the hotel for a quiet, relaxing night to myself where I could just run downstairs and pick up my order. Unfortunately, I was unable to place an online order for pickup anytime that day even though they closed at 10p and it was 7:30p. I also tried calling several times and no one answered so unfortunately I had to put on deodorant (just got out the shower from doing my curls) and real clothes because I had no clue if they would make me eat inside since the takeaway options seemed to not be available. Luckily I was able to place a takeout order downstairs and wait in my room for a call. I ordered the Grover Double Burger, added a slab of bacon, and substituted the fries for a salad. The to go bag had everything I needed to enjoy the meal in my room such as silverware and a wet wipe. I was pleasantly surprised by the presentation of the colorful, fresh, green salad I was given! Not what I was expecting from a hotel restaurant salad! The vinaigrette was also a nice light pairing for the delicious healthy salad. The burger patties were a nice size and cooked to a perfect medium. They were not playing when they said SLAB of bacon! That beauty was thick and delicious. There was quite a bit of bacon fat which I'm personally not a fan of so I tore it off but I know some people love it. The sauce on the burger could have been a bit more plentiful and had more flavor, although having more could have given it the flavor that was needed. The bun was soft, buttery, but sturdy enough to handle the patties. Overall my hotel meal was very good! It also seemed to be a popular Friday night option since the place was packed and there was even a wait for tables!
