    Held a team dinner meeting in the Dinning Pod for something different. The Pods area amazing...carpeting, high back chairs with a blanket, a heater, stand alone sound system, an intercom for service and a lovely chandelier. This is NOT a cheap plastic igloo like other places, this is glass and solid construction - highly recommend. Plus, the food is from Cafe Zinc so you know its going to be good!

    It was a perfect place and experience for celebrating our anniversary! There were 6 of us in our pod. We had enough room and even though it was cold outside, we were cozy warm inside with plush blankets provided for everyone. Our food arrived hot and was delicious! Our server was friendly and answered all questions. We were surprised with a special Anniversary dessert. I would highly recommend the pod dining experience at The H Hotel with food provided from Cafe Zinc!

    Rachael was an exceptional host for our dinner out. Our steaks were perfectly cooked and seasoned (shout out to Sam on the grill) I asked specifically because it was the best steak out I've had in a very long time. Typically, we have filet's at home because they are just "better"....but in this case - solid 5 stars. The pods were a complete delight and we will return again very soon.

    Understanding the cold weather that night, the heating or insulation on the pod needs to improve so that the cold doesn’t become a detriment to the dining experience. Unfortunately the cold air and drafts kept coming in which didn’t allow us to fully enjoy our dinner. Service and food on the other end was great!

    We arrived on time for our reservation but had to wait because the Pod had its air turned on rather than heat. They noticed it and changed it to heat but we were freezing the entire dinner. We noticed people in the other pods with their coats off but we had to keep ours on and use the blankets because it was freezing so we ate quickly and left. Average at best.

When we arrived, the table was beautifully set with wooden chargers, beautiful hanging greenery, and our own portable bluetooth speaker to listen to our own music. The food from Cafe Zinc is always outstanding, and the truffle frites cannot be beat. Our server, Stu (sp?) was courteous and offered wonderful service. We enjoyed our dinner and look forward to more like this!

It was beautiful, festive, warm and simply a wonderful experience, down every small detail including the cozy blankets provided. Our meals were top notch and our waitress, Adriana was beyond spectacular. She had a humorous, welcoming, warm personality that made us feel extra special. We will be back!

    Beautiful domes, tastefully decorated in an elegant courtyard lit up at dark. Service was superb. Audrey was very helpful, and thorough. She saw us trying to snap a picture and popped in to take one for us, thank you again Audrey. The food was top notch, I highly recommend the Flatbread for an appetizer, and the duck breast special with wild rice bread pudding, grilled parsnips and mulled wine reduction was a wonderful combination of flavors, and the plate looked stunning. My wife's steak was cooked perfect and the brown butter lemon roasted cauliflower was also. The parm frites that came with it, dipped in the truffle mayo were addictive. Very unique experience that can only be found here and a must-do that I highly recommend.

    H Hotel Dining PodsResponded on January 14, 2023Jesse Q we thank you for the kind words and lovely comments of our food special and service staff! I will make sure that Chef Ryland and Audrey all receive the praise and recognition they deserve.

    Overall great idea with the pods, nevertheless pod was not preheated. The food tasted good, but small things would have made the difference. Chicken and bean soup had almost no chicken, neither beans. Steak medium- rare was over cooked, poppyseed rice had no flavor and glass of white wine was only 1/3 filled. Overall not up to expected standards.

    Our dinner was amazing. Andrea, the waitress, is fabulous. Pod experience was special for us, especially with the Winter/Christmas decor. It should be more transparent that the pods are”free” except you have to spend a minimum of $150. It’s in the small print online and not mentioned when we called.
