    Waited 30 minutes for our drinks to arrive after complaining to manager. We saw tables around us with dirty dishes on them that still weren’t cleared an hour later. Witnessed a couple sat at an uncleared table by the hostess and she was oblivious that she did that. We told the waiter who promptly took care of it. Salad arrived with no salad dressing. Complained to manager again who got salad dressing. Worst hospitality I have ever witnessed. Won’t be back. Manager blamed Marriott’s lack of support for more staff. But I did not see manager or hostess scurrying to clean tables to fill in gaps. Just oblivious there.

    Despite having a reservation, we were told we could not be seated for half an hour because the employees mismanaged the seating.

    A little under staffed for a Saturday night. Ran out of scallops which was unfortunate. But still a nice evening out with some friends

    We found Eleven Waters in the Open Table app when looking for a place to enjoy dinner before a concert at the Landmark. The menu looked good, so we made a reservation. We were disappointed when we realized it was a hotel restaurant. However, we went in, were seated promptly at a nice window table and never really felt like we were in a hotel. Service was quick and friendly, even though our server had many tables and bar responsibilities. We ordered Greens and Beans at our servers recommendation and it was very good. We also enjoyed the Caesar Salad, Cajun Salmon and Chicken and pasta. We finished the meal with the cannolis. My husband found a new to him local craft beer that he enjoyed, and I’m always pleased to find Josh Cabernet on a menu. Our experience was excellent!
    Eleven WatersResponded on March 13, 2024
    We appreciate the detailed review, Laurie! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your pre-show dinner with us. Hopefully you took advantage of our complimentary Valet and walked just a short distance to the Landmark. We hope to see you back again soon for some Josh Cabernet!

    Food was pretty good and so was the service. Kind of expensive for what it is. We went during some wing competition so the restaurant was pretty crowded with people coming in and out

    Having tried Oh My Darling for brunch which had a 1.5 hour wait due to the reservations they had we found ourselves at Eleven Waters. Malory provided excellent service. The Bloody Mary's were excellent. My Chicken and Waffle was good, and my wife's French Toast was very good. They did have a brunch buffet available. Would chose to go to Eleven Waters again for brunch.

    Food was average at best with some strange sauces added. The sauces themselves were unidentifiable and inedible. Weird thing was that these 'sauces' came with dishes that everyone expects to have certain types of sauces with. For example, we had calamari and I had fish and chips. Most people would expect the calamari to come with a nice cocktail-type sauce. Nope, the calamari came with an unidentifiable green sauce of some type?? Then the fish and chips came, and I would think most people would expect that to come with some type of tartar sauce, perhaps some vinegar? Nope, it came with an unidentifiable purple sauce which did not go with the dish.
    Eleven WatersResponded on February 21, 2024
    Hi James -- We appreciate your feedback and are sorry to hear that our food didn’t meet your expectations. We take pride in our sauces and it's disheartening to hear that you found them unidentifiable and unpalatable. Your feedback is important to us and we will certainly take your comments into consideration as we continually strive to improve our menu offerings. We hope you'll give us another chance to impress you with our food in the future!
