I really wanted to like this place, but it fell flat. The service staff were kind and attentive but…read moreI definitely felt rushed though the restaurant wasn't full. The menu looked great, but I was surprised that the only option for a fresh catch of the day was on top of a salad. There were several specialty dishes, but many at our table felt they were very under-seasoned. The jambalaya came out looking like soup and was very bland. The pasta dish was buttery but had zero salt. It was like the restaurant was trying to be finer dining but the execution was off. It was fine but not great. They only sell wine and beer. Three dessert options. Again, not a bad meal, but I was surprised at how good the ratings were given our table's food, so maybe we were there on an off night.

Not…read moresure what they have done differently but they were greasy and the outside texture was different. The inside flavors were still good and the sauce yummy, just the shell was not pleasant. Five stars to Breyanna... she was friendly and cheerful. She checked in on us several times. What I did notice is that she had to be a bartender and a waitress so she was not there when I did want something. I would like to suggest that the host/hostess (who was not busy) should be checking around to see if customers need anything when wait staff is short handed. He could have easily filled my glass with water or could have told Breyanna we were ready for out ticket. The property owner needs to change the parking signs to let us know that we can also park where the Looking Glass used to be.

Both were excellent. Well seasoned and fresh. Entrees I had the striped bass. Husband had the swordfish. Every bite was perfect. Great flavors.

I dined for lunch at Cypress Hall in Downtown New Bern. The decor is great. I liked the exposed…read morebrick and high ceilings in the historic building. It also feels modern. One half feels historic and the other half feels modern with the artwork, mirrors, and finishes. The lighting is dim but you can still read the menu. It wasn't busy while I was there but quiet enough I couldn't hear other conversations. Initially the host wanted to seat me at the bar but when I declined, gave me a seat near the open kitchen. My waitress was friendly and helped me select the strawberry blonde to go with the strawberry salad. This was smaller than expected and just one or two strawberries. There was a little too much dressing for my taste as I forgot to order it on the side. I did like how the flavors came together. I also had the chocolate torte which was rich and decadent. I left here a little squeamish from what I witnessed. After all, I was seated at a booth table with a full view of the open kitchen. I noticed the food runner repeatedly touching his nose then the plates of food. I watched him reset a table and was touching the silverware by the tines, the part that goes in your mouth, rather than the handles. I'm not sure if the hands had been washed when he added by hand garnish to my dessert. I immediately removed the garnish but should have returned the dish to get it remade. Also, a table of six was seated then left a few minutes later and the glasses and silverware were not replaced while I was there, leaving me to assume they were not replaced for the next guests. I also noticed the restaurant had many cameras, so these hygiene lapses were likely recorded. For an upscale spot, these hygiene issues were disappointing. I truly enjoyed the flavors and the atmosphere, and I would be happy to return in the future if I could be confident that basic hygiene and service protocols were being strictly followed. I'd particularly love to come back and try the strawberry cake next time.

We all thoroughly enjoyed our appetizers and meals. The calamari was delicious the breading was crispy but not too heavy and the chargrilled pineapples were amazing with it. The Philly cheesesteak rolls were excellent and our party enjoyed the crab dip. The burgers were a fan favorite. Us Pittsburgh folk's were happy to see Heinz ketchup. We enjoyed the fried shrimp and shrimp curry dish! Would definitely recommend. Bonus....we could hear some live music from down the street....apparently the streets are closed off for Sunday Funday.

The food at this hotel bistro is better than most of the restaurants around JACKSONVILLE. They serve Starbucks coffee and it is pretty much rocks the Starbucks menu plus much better food than Starbucks has. I got the ham and cheese breakfast sandwich a couple times. The egg white fritatta, the quesadilla and shrimp pot stickers (not all at once), we ate here a bunch if times. The food was always better than expected and very good made with fresh ingredients. I always got the cold brew coffee, all was great the service was always great. I would eat here again and suggest this place to others.

The food is ok, the service is great and the location is almost perfect…read more This is a pool deck and stage area, lots of cement and terraced levels fenced off from the pool but this also blocks the ocean and beach views. All the cement makes it a bit loud but also hot because it soaks in the heat and radiates it back out all day. This is fine in the cooler months or if you have pool access as a guest. There is an inside dining room too but why use that when its so much nicer outside? The food was good, not great, and like most tourist areas a bit over priced for the quality. I'm not saying it wan't good because everything we tried we liked. Only it was nothing to get too excited about for the higher prices. Honestly you're paying for the view and the nice outdoor seating. Note: The closer parking lots are for condo/hotel guests only and they will tow you away. If you're just coming to the restaurant you must park across the street. When we went there was plenty of of available parking but it was a very hot day in the high 90s and high humidity so by the time I parked and walked over I was already sweaty and uncomfortable. On a normal day it would be no big deal for me, but if your with people who cannot climb a steep driveway or do a long walk then I would drop them off at the front door and then go park.
