"Breakfast was good but dinner was horrible. We stayed at the hotel for one night and sampled both. For breakfast we had the ham Benedict and the croque madame, both were tasty but nothing too fancy. Dinner was awful. Really some of the worst food I've had in a long time. Maybe we ordered the wrong things? My husband got the branzino which came with none of things advertised on the menu. The dish consisted of a gritty pea puree, lumpy mash potato and under seasoned fish. I ordered the vegetable gratin, which tasted like the water from boiled vegetables coated in a congealed white mush that was supposed to be cheesy? I've never had such flavorless Gruyère or maybe they forgot the Gruyère and it was just soggy breadcrumbs. The food was well presented but it was 99% presentation and 1% flavor. It tasted like it was made by someone who hates food but likes design. It reminded me of the bad contestants on masterchef who have googled French fine dining and tried to recreate it without tasting what they make. Also the portions were small and the prices ridiculous. We got the warm chocolate cake for dessert which was basically a chocolate lava cake without the lava. Everyone who watches cooking shows knows that making the lava requires a little bit of cooking skill, clearly this was above the chef. Our experience at the restaurant almost soured our whole stay. I think a unique hotel like this really deserves a better chef. I think the menu probably goes down well with people who like something to look/sound fancy, but it's not for people who actually like food."
