   We had reservations to celebrate our anniversary. We are near 80 years old and this is a brunch we have enjoyed for years. The site implied that there would be the usual brunch and a Mexican option. Only the alternative was on site. They tried to seat us at a four top on the patio. It was drizzling. I couldn’t get on the chairs so they moved us to another patio seat. We waited 15 minutes and were never acknowledged with water or service. My husband notified the staff of this and they moved us inside to a nice table. The server was a delight and the rest of the meal was good. But we will have to go back for the usual. The mariachi music was a special treat.

   The food and service was great. The problem for me was that I chose this venue over Ventana Canyon because the advertised price per person was $50./$14 less than Ventana. Nobody told me it was a “special” brunch (Cinco de Mayo) and that the price per person was $75. I was treating a friend for her retirement, so obviously could not back out once we were there. Overall, it is a beautiful place with great food and service, but disappointed with the change in price without notification.

   Food and service was exceptional! It was our first time there and we reserved a table in Grill Room. Ambiance was a bit quiet. We will definitely go back, but the next time we will reserve in Terrazzo Room, which has better ambience.

   It's been years since I've been to The Grill; back then it was mediocre at best. Unfortunately it's gone downhill from there. The good: the host was amazing, the piano player was wonderful, the view was great and the charred octopus was excellent. The bad: the Duroc pork was cooked to perfection, but the glaze was so salty I had to cut it off before eating, my friend's lamb shank was somewhat dry, our server had no personality at all, and service was slow. The ugly: my friend's cod was probably frozen -- totally inedible. The manager was informed and offered a free dessert in consolation. Although presented beautifully, the brownie a la mode wasn't worth the price (free!). An extremely disappointing meal. Will only return to enjoy cocktails at sunset.

   Have been to Grill at Hacienda del Sol several times over 10 years. Food quality may have slipped a bit (tomahawk pork chop was a little over done for my order, but still not bad). Service was very good and ambience (especially sunset views) was excellent.
