"This is a hotel restaurant. Something not obvious in the description provided. They add tablecloths at night and lower the lighting to make it a little more formal. I booked this because I had a specific time frame, location and request for steak and this was the only location that fit the bill. The lobby is very large and open with great views, but when we arrived there was no clear signage telling us where to find the restaurant. The restaurant boasts about having great views but several tables, like ours, were badly positioned so only one guest had the view and one guest had their back to the view. The restaurant was much noisier than I expected. The tablecloth had clearly not been ironed which bothered me. The cutlery was very badly scratched and looked old and used. The service is prompt, professional, attentive and responsive. I ordered a drink that was very badly made, which was a disappointment. We elected to share an appetizer with shrimp, orange segments and fennel. The minute the plate was put on the table the smell of the shrimp was overwhelming. First sign they were definitely not fresh. When we ate them, they were very slimy, yet another sign they were not fresh. They were very tough and overcooked. It was not a good start. We ordered steak with lobster tail. The steak was perfect. Every bite was tender, juicy, perfectly seasoned and medium rare, which is what I expected. The lobster was over-seasoned and over-cooked. The brussel sprouts were perfectly cooked and seasoned. My guest ordered a baked potato that arrived very late and cold. We were in a time crunch so we did not order dessert. They validate parking which is important. The meal was over priced $200) for only two people and definitely not worth the price. If you are staying in the hotel the restaurant is fine. If you want a good basic steak, they do a great job, but there are far better places to enjoy a good steak dinner in Burlingame."
