    Me and my partner went to celebrate her birthday at the hotel which was amazing and no complaints there but, we went to exile for dinner and I had a steak, it was multi cooked; Part of it was well done the other part was rare, worst steak I have ever had. Her chicken had way to much seasoning felt like you were getting a mouthful of salt and pepper. The decor and ambience are the only good thing about this spot, would not recommend.

    The noise level was really bad!!! There were lots of people there which was fine but the music was too loud so we asked the server to turn down the music. She explained they couldn’t!! The guy Sean who was responsible for the music controlled the level through his phone… they had no control!! It was the first time we couldn’t hear each other talk…. And we go to Exile often!! So sad but we won’t be back anytime soon!!

    Not prepared for the number of people coming to eat in the restaurant. Had a reso for 8:15 and was not seated until 8:40. The food was good but the slow seating and service detracted from the experience.

    We had breakfast daily for our 5 night stay..each morning it was chaotic and slow. Reservations are suggested but the restaurant is half empty and very poorly staffed. Allow a lot of time..food was decent.

    Service was great, my banana pancakes a bit sweet but to be expected, a bit loud for the morning, sat near the bar so not ideal, but will be back! Always enjoy going to Exile.
