If you want another drink you have to excessively flag the bartender, even if the place is empty.

Specifically for "The Bistro"…read more Apologies for the lengthy post in advance. We checked in today and noticed that The Bistro was listed as being open until 10:00 PM. Around 8:40 PM, I went downstairs to ask about laundry services and dinner options. I want to note that the front desk staff was excellent -- very kind, professional, and informative. Unfortunately, my experience at The Bistro was very different. When I approached the bar area to place a to-go order for my room, the bartender, Nikkii, responded by saying, "I guess, but people don't normally do dinner this late," while giving me a very uncomfortable look. Considering the restaurant was still open for another hour and a half, I found that comment inappropriate and unprofessional. I then asked if the restaurant's hours had changed from the posted 10:00 PM closing time, but instead of clarifying, she simply stated that I could not order soup because it is prepped in the morning. While I completely understand certain menu limitations later in the evening, the overall interaction felt dismissive and unwelcoming. As someone who also works in the service industry as a bartender, I understand that late-night orders can sometimes be frustrating, but it is still important to treat guests with courtesy and professionalism during operating hours. After placing my order, I realized that Nikkii herself would be preparing the food, which honestly made me uncomfortable given the attitude displayed throughout the interaction. I hope this feedback is taken constructively, because the front desk staff set a wonderful tone for the stay, and it was disappointing for the dining experience to feel so unnecessarily negative. A little more patience and kindness toward guests would go a long way.

Hyatt Runway Rooftop…read more This is one of those places you keep meaning to go. We finally went and I'm glad we did. The ingress and egress was simple, just follow the signs. There was ample free parking. We arrived before sunset which allowed us to see fabulous sights- the airport traffic in daylight, and the sunset which is God's gift after a long day. At night, the airport is a hub of activity. It's a terrific view. If you're interested in sports, they have it available at the bar. It isn't just the atmosphere and view that make this a good restaurant, it is the quality and quantity of food. Like some of you, I traveled extensively during my career. Hotel restaurants were not known for high-quality food. This place is an exception. We were pleasantly surprised by the excellent food, ample amounts, and reasonableness of the prices. The service was excellent. We will return. We recommended it to you.

The only thing which was off putting; I saw 2 of the female servers were eating appetizers right off the trays. I didn't say anything because it was not worth the stress but they could have snuck a snack after or behind the scenes. A little more discretion goes a long way. We also really enjoyed the spa suite directly across from the venue. The bride and our small gathering of bridesmaids had massages and facials. The outdoor ceremony can be a bit interesting...without any shade. Think of Florida heat..Other than that its was a good venue.

They came around and offered assistance and guidance at every step of the project. I must have changed my mind 3 times each on stain and paint colors.

We originally stopped at Flames for an early dinner as we were attracted to all the good reviews…read more The restaurant was not busy when we arrived around 5p but filled up a bit more as we dined. We appreciated the interior of this restaurant being noticeably brighter compared to the other location in Vero, which is too dark. This Melbourne location seemed clean with an open kitchen to see the action. We started off ordering a hummus for the table. A couple of the plates they brought out looked dirty and unwashed (yikes!). Also, the pitas were not warm so we sent those back as well. Not off to a good start. Our server Donna was great though, and was fast, helpful and informative. Our orders of tenderloin and chicken kebobs were ok, the steak was a bit chewy. Entrees came with a house salad with lemon vinaigrette, veggies, rice and a bit of hummus.. those were good. I've had better Mediterranean so not sure if I'd return, especially with the dirty dishes. This just wasn't what I was hoping for, but it's slim pickings if you're looking for good restaurants around this area.

Saturday nights around 7-7:30pm they have belly dancers. Our waitress, Kim was attentive and very knowledgeable about the menu. The food was delicious the lentil soup was tasty in a nice big bowl served with crispy pita. Enough to call it a meal. The shrimp skewers were cooked over an open flame. For dessert the baklava with pistachio and Lebanese tea. They paired very well together. My only complaint would be the rice is a little too buttery. Everything was good though and I will definitely be returning.

Despite booking last minute we were upgraded from a King to a King Suite because of our points membership. The room was exceptionally clean! And it was huge! Much larger than your average King suite. I wish I took pictures but we were exhausted by the time we arrived. The front desk staff were very kind and the beds were more comfortable than my own memory foam at home! Seriously, I NEED to find out what mattress and/or topper they use. Despite being in a connecting room (it could be connected if we wanted to but we didn't have any others with us), there was absolutely no noise at all which I was worried about in the beginning due to some really excited kids (not their fault it was thanksgiving after all ); but the front desk staff almost immediately kindly asked their parents to settle them down. The only thing I will say is that the free breakfast buffet wasn't too great but it is a 3 star hotel and it was free. TLDR: The Holiday Inn Express & Suites has exceptional kind customer service, large super clean rooms, and INSANELY comfortable beds! I highly recommend them for a good night's stay.
