Reviews
The only thing that brightened our visit was the dessert. It was absolutely delicious, and what really saved the mood was a sweet birthday surprise—a small chocolate ‘Happy Birthday’ print on the plate. It was a thoughtful touch that we truly appreciated.
While the dessert and the birthday gesture were wonderful, the slow service and tired atmosphere definitely need improvement
From the moment we were seated, both servers made us feel welcomed and well cared for. Without delay, they offered us freshly brewed coffee, chilled juices, and refreshing water. It was clear they took pride in ensuring that every guest started their morning with comfort and ease.
Though it’s a buffet-style breakfast — and a delicious one at that, featuring an impressive array of items — what truly stood out was the personalized attention Hiwot and Tash offered. They kindly let us know they’d be happy to bring special items such as waffles or turkey bacon directly to our table if we wanted them. The omelette station was a standout as well, with custom-made omelettes prepared to your liking, cooked fresh and packed with flavor.
Hiwot and Tash checked in on us often, never intrusively, but always with a warm smile and genuine care. Their attentiveness, positive energy, and professionalism elevated the entire experience. What amazed us even more was learning that Hiwot is still in training — a surprise, considering the top-tier service she delivered. Her natural attentiveness and poise made it feel like she’d been doing this for years.
Thanks to these two incredible ladies, breakfast at Amatista Cookhouse was not just a meal, but a delightful way to start the day. If you’re staying at Sapphire Falls, don’t miss this spot — and if you’re lucky enough to be served by Hiwot or Tash, you’re in for a real treat.
Despite the prompt and friendly service, the dishes left much to be desired.
The empanadas were decidedly average, and the chicken wings were so bland we had to season them ourselves. Even the pizza, which had decent dough, was spoiled by what tasted like a plain, straight-from-the-can sauce. Because of the food quality, we won’t be making a return visit.
On our first day, my father and I were craving a burger . So, we decided to to try Amatista Cookhouse in our hotel.
The restaurant is very pretty. It is all blue and white and very bright thanks to the many windows .
We ordered two burgers and after a little wait, they finally arrived. YUMMY! The burgers were excellent. The meat was cooked perfectly and the brioche bun was soft and flavorful. This burger is a MUST TRY!
My father and I had an amazing lunch and will be back for more next time!
We asked to be seated outside so our server was the bartender who did a great job!
Had the wings for an appetizer and they were quite good.
The only complaint with dinner was the steak…it was a bit tough.
We had a an enjoyable time enough to come back the day we were leaving for breakfast.
We skipped the buffet and ordered a la carts.
Everyone enjoyed the last meal at Universal.
My son had the rotissterie chicken and I had a couple of appitizers. Both were delicious. The only negative was service was a little slow. Luckily we weren’t in a hurry. But overall very happy with the experience and wouldn’t hesitate to return next time I am staying at Sapphire Falls!
Rotisserie chicken – fantastic, not sure how they made it to be so much more tastier than the rotisserie chicken in the park lol;
Mussels – fantastic, served with breads grilled on wood fire I feel, so great!!
Cheese pizza – the cheese sooo deep
Cocktail – tequila old fashioned, pretty good.
Probably because we went into the restaurant after 9:20 pm, the speed wasn’t too slow as others complained.
We were so exhausted after a long day, but in the middle of the dinner, I was feeling very happy because this dinner is good retreat to us. Server also nice and checked on us several times, made jokes even though it was late. Anyway, I’m very impressed by this restaurant. Worth specifically leaving a nice review.
