Reviews
The Living Room is laid back:
– You grab a seat if it’s available
– You flag your server down, they may or may not come to you
– You take your time there, so don’t expect the same hustle you’d get at your typical restaurant
– It’s comfy, both the atmosphere with the fireplaces and views of the slopes as well as the couches and sofas you can sprawl on
– It’s DOG FRIENDLY! 🙂
– There are huge-sized appetizers
It’s hard to rate it as a restaurant, when it’s an experience in its own class. We came here three times during our visit, and one out of those three times we had a server that was really good (true to what you’d expect from a Ritz).
If you eat here, don’t forget that the 20% tip is included in the bill! Apparently it’s on the menu but I missed this.
I didn’t look at the check carefully since I was engaged in conversation with my group and the server didn’t mention that the 20% was included when the check was given to me.
I added an additional tip and the server was happy to accept that without any notice to me. Was it my mistake? Definitely! Live and learn.
Was it still bad customer service to see a 40%+ tip and not at least check with the guest? Yes, I think so, but you can be the judge.
The food is pretty good. The chef has strong opinions and goes for some odd taste combinations but it is the Ritz so I get it and approve.
The service is a hot mess. The humans serving are friendly and trying their best but are overwhelmed and overrun. You enter and every 5th table isn’t cleared from the last guests. You find a free table and then the lottery begins – without waving people down or waiting 25+ minutes: Will you get a menu? Will your order be taken? Will your appetizers, soup/salads and mains arrive at the correct time and not all at once? Will your water be refilled? Will the check come to you or will you need to flag someone down?
Just about all of those for our evening were “no”.
I’ve not written a negative review before and feel a bit dirty doing it now but man, it is supposed to be the ritz, you are supposed to pay through the nose for immaculate service and experiences. If you decide to go…plan for legit 2.5 to 3.5 hours to get all the way through and for the flow of the whole thing to be disrupted at every turn, making it hard to enjoy and generally exasperating.
