This is a nice idea, with a nice menu marred by comically terrible service. I ordered at 6:30 and told the waitress I was in a hurry and had to go to a concert next door at 7:30. At 7:25 my food arrived totally cold. Like, cold cold. They need to start all over.

We ate brunch there because we wanted to sleep in and not eat till dinner that night. I ordered from the menu but my husband wanted the buffet so he could get an omelet. There was no one there to make omelet! He was very disappointed because the price of the buffet was very high. The service was good. It was just disappointing to not get what was advertised.

The service and customer appreciation was fantastic. The food had its pluses and minuses but it was a buffet so as for a buffet it was good. But our greatest enjoyment was having the wait staff and front desk staff treat us like appreciated guests. Thank you 1600 Bar & Grille for making my families Breakfast with Santa memorable and very special.

* Party of two seniors attended Thanksgiving Buffet. Reservation process was easy as the Restaurant, simply, directed any & all to Open Table. * Hotel comped valet parking with Buffet Reservation & provided a generous $10 Senior discount. * We arrived early & Restaurant staff were able to seat us early * Buffet choices were adequate on both the Breakfast & Lunch offerings * Food was excellent * Service was excellent.

We ate there as it was next to Toyota center and we were going to concert. It is located in Hilton and disappointed that open table did not show dinner menu. Service was slow due to large concert crowd and short staff. Staff issue I am sure is related to shortage of workers all around and Covid. Mangers tried to help and they were professional.

Breakfast with Santa Santa is the most adorable Santa, he checks in kids, often in your table, ask them what do they want for Christmas, we took a bunch of pictures & had a good breakfast. The chocolate house is impressive and beautiful love the whole decoration and lights. Service amazing. The only issue is that we wanted to get a drink in the bar after breakfast and was closed I believe they open at 4 pm. Lol but everything was good.

Had a 9AM Reservation for Breakfast with Santa. Checked in at desk at 8:55 AM. No table available. Had qutie a wait. Was told they were very busy. When finally called to be seated she said we were there early and that's why we had to wait.....so of course it was OUR fault they didn't have a table reserved.

Enjoyed Thanksgiving Buffet at the restaurant. The hotel is beautiful as is the restaurant. For a vegetarian there were still enough selections that I did not go away hungry. The continuous Mimosa refills were satisfactory except they were made with prosecco instead of champagne which was expected. I was also annoyed that there was turkey in the Waldorf Salad, but maybe that's the way it is originally meant to be. I just never had it that way growing up. The only negative part if the experience was the valet parking fee which seems pricey. $50 plus a $10 tip for the driver almost matched the cost of the meal! I would prefer the hotel grind the parking fee into the cost of the buffet like their competitor down the street. You still pay for it, but don't face sticker shock on your way out the door. A disappointing end to an otherwise pleasant experience.

Valentine Dinner was delicious! They brought us champagne and chocolate strawberries when we arrived. My wife thought I set it up. The Braised Short Rib was great and my wife really enjoyed her steak. The dessert was so beautiful we didn’t want to eat it. Everyone was so friendly and happy to be there. We stayed at the hotel overnight and went back for breakfast in the morning it was another great experience. We had a great Valentine Day weekend we will be coming back again.

Bringing an important client to lunch at this restaurant I was very disappointed in the lack of attentiveness, the time it took to get our food and the fact our meal was barely warm. Our server did say the kitchen was shorthanded but it was obvious there were more problems than that. Lesson learned about eating at this restaurant.
