   Very fun vibe. We ate inside the pool! Food was great! We shared a zucchini & burrata pizza and a hamburger! Yum!

   Normally, I don't write negative reviews, but my experience was so different from the online feedback that I felt compelled to share. Swim Club had been on my radar since it opened, especially after seeing positive press and features from local food influencers. However, the first sign that something was off was the wide-open reservation availability for a Saturday night. This often suggests a place might have relied on an initial gimmick that has since lost its appeal, leaving no strong reason for repeat visits. The second clue was the location within an aging hotel that seemed to have only received a superficial retro renovation. Upon arrival, the lack of other diners was noticeable – the place was practically empty. The menu itself was surprisingly basic, resembling something you'd find poolside rather than in a featured restaurant. The pizza I ordered tasted distinctly like a frozen one, and others in my group identified their wraps as tasting like they came from Costco. We left shortly after, all wondering how much longer Swim Club could realistically stay in business given our disappointing experience.

   Staff was very friendly and helpful, the decor and music set the chill vibe, and the food was fantastic! I’ll definitely be back in the summer to have drinks poolside!

   Great experience at Swim Club. No one was swimming as the weather was bad but the food was great, our server very helpful and friendly and the atmosphere was chill and fun.

   It was a cute place but I was not impressed by the food. The steak was rancid I was very unsatisfied. They took it off my receipt of course but it really concerned me. I just hope they threw away the rest of the meat that was in the same container.

   Oh no! That’s definitely not the kind of experience we want anyone to have. We appreciate you giving us a try and letting us know what happened—we take food quality super seriously, so we made sure to address this right away. We’re glad we could make it right on your receipt, but we’d love another chance to wow you with a meal that actually hits the spot! Hope to see you again soon!
