"Overall, the food was very good and the venue was nice and modern but the service was a bit slow and the prices were on the higher end with cocktails costing $20 each along with an automatic 20% gratuity applied. There was an empty hostess stand when we 1st arrived but after asking the bar they advised us that the hostess was on the other end of the restaurant (the hotel side). Our server was pleasant and made good recommendations, but there was a long lag between our courses, and he did not come back to our table for quite awhile after we received our entrees. We had the Hamachi Crudo and Scallops to start, and both were delicious. The scallops were buttery and the Hamachi crudo was light and flavorful. For entrees, we had the Cacio e Pepe with shrimp added and the Steak and Frites. The Steak and Frites had very nice flavor and I was satisfied with the Cacio e Pepe as well. The Wake and Bake cocktail was very comforting and a perfect fall drink if you like apples and the smokiness of mezcal. We ended with the Na'Nu and Make a Wish. They were okay desserts, but I was not really impressed with either one. I am glad we tried them out, but I'm not sure if I'll revisit given the prices and lack of attentive service. We might consider giving them another shot in the future because the food was very good for the most part. It's frustrating that the gratuity is already added because I didn't feel like the service was worth 20% but I guess they don't have to try as hard when they know they are getting 20% automatically."

"We usually love dining at Ciclo. We are happy to pay extra for next level service, tasty food, and a great ambience. This was my husbands first time dining there, so we were hoping it would make a good impression. We sat down and were not greeted or acknowledged for almost 15 minutes. Our cocktails came out one at a time, over the course of the following 20 minutes. Upon getting our food, which was mostly delicious, our server had not checked on us or refilled our drinks. Other servers came by with a water pitcher in hand to top up our waters, but that was the most attentive anyone had been. When asking for a side of lemons (plural) for one of the guests iced tea, the server said no problem. After waiting 5 minutes, my friend went to the seafood table and grabbed some lemons that were meant for the shrimp cocktail. The server came by finally and slammed a bowl down next to her that only had one lemon wedge and said nothing and walked away. She slammed the bowl down so hard we were all quite alarmed and had to inspect the bowl to make sure it didn’t break. Needless to say, our experience was terrible, and not on par for a Four Seasons dining experience. We are disappointed. I’m not sure if they were understaffed that day, or our server was inexperienced, but the service was horrible. I want to mention that we are very pleasant, kind, and patient people. Normally we don’t complain or paint businesses in a bad light, but I feel like this needs to be seen by the restaurant so they can make some improvements."

"My friend and I dined at Sams No 3 for lunch today Sunday) at around noon. She’s been there plenty of times, this was my 2nd occasion. She likes the fact that they have Greek, Mexican and American Food. The place was packed to the front doors, but they had plenty of seating inside and out for us while we waited to be seated. Our wait was only 15 minutes. That doesn’t bother me at all because good things come to those who wait! Its a good sign that a place has great food if people are willing to wait for it. I like that they give you a carafe of water and straws without you having to ask for them. I like to be able to refill my own water at my own will. Our waitress was very attentive. She gave suggestions when I needed them. I ordered the Mexican Create your own Combo and picked 3 for 10.99. I asked for pinto beans instead of refried and that was no problem. I also got a beef taco, chicken enchilada and guacamole tostada. All were good, although the taco was my favorite and the rice and beans were delicious! The chicken enchilada was weird, the chicken wasn’t shredded like I’m used to, it was more like the chicken used for fajitas…but it was still good. We had a coupon that gave us buy one get one free, but found that it only too $7.00 off lunch or dinner and most of the entrees cost more than that. However, I’ll still be going back~ I just discovered another coupon in the mail!"
