Stayed recently for a work trip, decided I’d grab dinner in the restaurant in the hotel and honestly that was a big mistake. The menu first didn’t match to what they showed online which was kind of annoying but they still had some stuff that sounded good.
Ordered a soup, drink and entree had planned to order dessert afterwards. My waitress took a while to even come say hello and bring a menu (there were about 6 people in the restaurant at the time, plus a group that was forming for what I gather was a larger group), plus another server.
Got my drink, got my entree, but no soup. 10 mins goes by and finally got a refill on my drink. Another 20ish minutes goes by before I see her again and she asks if I am done. By this point I was over it I didn’t want the soup anymore and I definitely wasn’t going to get dessert. She brings the check, puts on the table and says nothing. I pay, and as I’m leaving I pass her again and she says nothing.
I don’t understand how someone works in hospitality was so unfriendly towards their customers. Absolutely ruined the whole experience.
Salad was OK but a bit wilted. And the chicken tenders (didn’t have high expectations for because it’s just chicken tenders) tasted like any generic ones you’d expect from a fast food restaurant.

Love their restaurant can accommodate 20+ people for big gathering. Also, have private space for small events at the restaurant if you need privacy. The food is great and staff are friendly.

We hosted a team dinner here while staying at the hotel for a lacrosse tournament. Matt and his team setup a menu for us that was fairly priced and allowed all 36 of us to eat together in the back room at a set time. All of the food was great, but the smash burgers and fries won the day. The salads were good too. 🙂 Matt and his team provided amazing service and we all had a great time.
Will be staying at the hotel and eating at Lift next time we are back in K-Zoo!

The attention to detail with the cooking is incredible. I’m blown away. I would drive out of my way to come eat at this hotel restaurant and I never thought I’d say that in my life. If you don’t try it, you’re missing out. The grill cook obviously knows what they’re doing.

Delicious food, super friendly staff, and modern atmosphere. This “in hotel” restaurant hit the mark. E’Lexus was our server and did a great job taking care of us. I had the pork ribeye, mashed potatoes and asparagus. Everything was cooked perfectly and seasoned on point. Hats off to the chef!

Very much a surprise. We were going to visit our Mom at the senior home across the street on 11th Street, and needed a quick dinner. This is in the old Holiday Inn. Really great food. Highly recommend.
