    We had a very good time. The view was outstanding! Service for the most part was excellent but had a few rough edges. Food quality was good with a nice variety to choose from. The cost is what will cause us not to return. At $255 a person plus service charge of 20%, plus taxes of another 10% and then $50 parking resulted in a $1,860 charge for 5 people. A little high for a Sunday brunch……..

    Horace was amazing. Great personality. Good company. Knowledgeable. We had a beautiful window seat with an amazing sunset. I’m not a foodie but the experience was nice.

    Nice ambience overlooking the ocean, and the service was good. Good place to go if you are looking for a nice place to celebrate a special occasion, but otherwise the food mediocre and extremely overpriced. In addition you only have the option of mandatory valet parking for $50. Wouldn’t go again

    The waiter was nice, but the service is not up to par for what they are charging at $200/person, e.g., the bread crumbs were not cleaned out right away before he set my table for my next round; he only cleaned it up at the end; and caviar spoon was not offered unless upon request. The food was simply disappointing for $200/person. Low quality and the cooking was not even good. Caviars were lower grade, small portion of smoked salmon in the egg benedict (smoke salmon is not even expensive). With this price range, I can get a decent dinner at a Michelin level restaurant. Overall, not live up to Ritz Carlton standard or $200 price range. I would not recommend it.

    Loved the new brunch approach where you can order 2 dishes at the time. Were able to try everything on the menu (shared with spouse). It was the perfect amount of food. Some of the dishes were the best we've ever had (eggs benedict, mushroom dish were particular standouts). Also views and ambiance were phenomenal watching the ocean change colors over the course of 2 hours. Valet parking is $50. Only other option is the small, jammed public parking lot that fills early within walking distance of the hotel.

    Way overpriced for the experience. The table cloth was wet. The flowers throughout the restaurant and on the table were wilting and low quality no notice that there would be a $50 fee to park on top of $199 brunch price. Some dishes were cold specifically the mushroom. Everything is clearly prepared in advance for heating to serve. Nothing made to order. We shared an allergy at the start of the meal and one dish still featured the allergen. Service was too fast or too slow. The restaurant was empty. There was no a la carte option. The brunch price should be clear on Open Table as well as the parking fee. This was sub par for what’s supposed to be an iconic hotel.
