The Californias Restaurant

We chose this restaurant specifically because it allowed large group reservations, and we had a 12-person group for brunch. When we showed up, the staff told us that they had no idea how to get OpenTable reservations, and they did not have the reservation of our big group. The staff gave us the best. We stayed about half an hour while enough tables were cleared. Once we set ourselves, we were impressed by the quality and variety of their Sunday brunch, which is well above what you would expect from a hotel restaurant. We had three different restricted diets under the group, and four children who all found many ways to eat. The hotel will undergo a lot of renovations, and the ambience will probably improve when it is finished.

Crab dip was subpar but steamed shrimp was awesome. Server never cleared the table before bringing out more food. Then the runner looked confused when I asked her to remove the dirty plates first. My husband noticed the building was under negative air pressure caused from Kitchen hood exhaust (kitchen saloon doors sucked in) causing hot humid exterior air to rush into the restaurant when the exterior doors would open. Sit away from doors if you want A/C. Outdoor seating looked nice and led to long pier on the water.

Great staff friendly fast service great location the drinks were just right

Took my daddy for the first time for Father's Day and he loved it! !!!

Nice enough restaurant, but way too noisy. Food very good but not outstanding. I'd flagged our group as celebrating a birthday (my grandson's 19th), but the waiter told us they didn't do anything for special occasions -- a disappointment since the question was asked when I made the reservation through Open Table. A bit on the expensive side, but I suppose that's to be expected on a warm summer weekend night.
