This is my second time visiting coin and candor and the experience is still phenomenal. From our greeting with the hostess to the last appreciative goodbyes of our waiter. We last visited towards the end of winter back in February and enjoyed the chefs amazing dinner winter menu. This time around we had the pleasure of enjoying his brunch/lunch summer delights. From his summer soup where you can taste every flavor in each bite to his refreshingly sweet dessert that featured summers perfect peaches. This meal was a 10/10. Highly recommend coming in to try the new summer menu and enjoy the calming views of the hotel this summer, with their signature coin and candor gin & tonic. Bon appétit!

The brunch food was fine. Served in a bowl(why?), the huevos rancheros were standing fare if a little bit tart. The chicken sandwich was reasonably large, the side of seasoned fries was on the small side. Our waitress was top drawer. She knew her stuff, listened, and was personable and efficient. She tried to find vinegar (none was available) and brought two dipping sauces in lieu of the vinegar. A for effort and for results as the restaurant's not having vinegar was not her fault. As a former restaurant owner, I would hire her for my place.

Came in for our first lunch buffet on Friday. It was great. They had homemade tortillas and tacos. They have different taco meat, the chicken steak and Carnitas the Carnitas you can really taste they make it from scratch. They also include a salad bar and a dessert station for the price. It’s a really great lunch menu item. Also servers are very attentive and let me say the margaritas are on point
