   We are locals and were looking for a spot where we could sit and enjoy a little outdoor dining. So we thought trying a hotel restaurant might fit that need The menu was much smaller than what was on line. The staff was very busy but our server was still good but we had to be patient because he was really running around trying to take care of so many tables. The food was relatively good although the steak on my sandwich was not sliced as described and there was a good portion of fat and grizzle on the steak. I had also asked for some white cheddar on the sandwich and they forgot it. The server politely brought some grated cheddar to the table but it wasn't the same as if they had put sliced cheese on the sandwich in the kitchen. My husbands salad had a very sweet balsamic dressing that he didn't like. I thought it was appropriate. The shrimp were cooked perfectly. My margarita was expensive but prepared just as I asked. If was staying at the hotel and this was my choice of where to eat on property, I would we satisfied but as a local, I have no need to return unless I am playing golf on the course.

   They had 2 different types of music playing at the same time, inside the restaurant and outside near the pool. Very distracting. Music outside was too loud.

   Restaurant floor had not been cleaned between parties. There were fries and other food under the table. Meal was over priced for quality.

   Nice patio surrounded by flowers with lakes and mountains in the background. Food was good although service could be faster.

   Overpriced and not even good food, staff left tables uncleared so birds were all over them, even pooping on the table!

   Grrr we had to put up a fight for a better table; disappointing having been coming there for so many years. The musician was great. The weather was great.

    Lovely outdoor space with great service and even live music under the stars! The menu seemed a bit more limited than last year, but overall our group enjoyed the meal.
