Came here for a birthday celebration. Servers were great. The food however, took over one hour and a half to arrive, food mind you that was Luke warm and subpar. Go explore restaurants in the area before trying this place that could care less to hire more cooks or chefs. Prices don't match the quality of food or service regardless of how sprawling and gorgeous your resort is. As a former Hilton employee and customer for over 30 years, I know this could improve.

Been here a few times over the last few months, it's a nice atmosphere, the staff is fine. Service is good, not great. The food is lacking, it's fine, not great. It's very southwest inspired. It serves its purpose for being a hotel. Drinks are pretty standard. The prices are high, but that's what you'd expect for a hotel also. One thing that struck me as a little odd, was the musicians they featured, just weren't very good. I'm a musician myself, and the caliber of music is not what I'd expect for a Hilton. Compared to some of the other resorts in town that feature live music, the two different musicians I saw on separate nights, were just not very good. Kinda surprising actually. Overall, if you're in a pinch while staying at the hotel, this restaurant will do. Otherwise I'd venture out somewhere else.

Very poor value for your money. The atmosphere is beautiful with a great outlook to the gorgeous grounds. Staff service is very friendly and attentive. But the good things stop there. We ordered loaded nachos which was good, but then the chicken taco mains had the exact same marinated chicken as the starter (surely they would design a menu that prevents repeated flavors? Or the servers should have warned us that we would be eating the same meal twice? The salad with shrimp was ok, dressing was very sweet and overall $12 extra for 4 shrimp obviously from a frozen pack is rich. The kids meal burger was severely burnt! The buns clearly were scorched on the inside. We sent it back and replaced with chicken tenders that were also over cooked (is the kids meal chef a bit flame happy?). Hungry kid and unsatisfying meal with a $100 bill for 2 people being fed. Should have had only drinks there and hopped across the street to El Charro

We've eaten here twice in the last 3 weeks. Both times the food was tasty. My favorite dish is the vegetarian stuffed pepper while my husband prefers the strip steak. The first time we went the service was just so so. The second time, however, the service was to notch. When we left we spent some time in the lobby enjoying the piano playing.

Impressive little restaurant at the resort. Service was great - Isa took care of us! The food takes a little bit of time, so I recommend getting a starter or drinks. Otherwise, food and drink was excellent - definitely recommend!

We ate here Friday and Saturday night as we were staying at the hotel and just wanted to relax without driving around to other places. On Friday night they were empty and the food and service was great. On Saturday night the restraunt was about half full and this was a terrible experience. The weather was perfect so we sat outside. 2 couples and 2 toddlers. We were served water and our drinks right away. From that point we sat there for 2 hours and could only get 2 drinks and apps. At one point we had empty plates and empty drinks for 30 min. We mentioned this to the server and she said she was waiting on bartender and chef. Walked into bar and only 7 people were sitting and they all had drinks. The bartender was just talking. As for the chef they should be able to male multiple plates at once. Not one at a time. However, when the food did come out it was very good so that was nice. We did talk to the manager and he was extremely nice as well. He could be a little more constructive with his staff or he needs to speak to someone else higher up as it seems this has been happening lately according to other reviews and staff. They did offer to comp us but we refused as we are not looking for free food and drink. We would rather have them correct the issues they were having. This was our first time staying here and we would like to stay here again when we come back. Our busser was amazing. That guy kept our water glasses full the entire time and we drank a ton of water.

Very poor quality food for the price. Flat iron steak was undercooked & paired with cold green bean concoction, cold potatoes & tough cold chorizo. Burgers were both cooked to well instead of medium as ordered. Slow service.

Southwest inspired food done well in a cozy unpretentious upscale setting. A great price to pay for a nice dinner.

For being an upscale restaurant you would expect them to have misters and a canopy on the patio but sadly no.
The wind caused parts of the trees to fall in your plate as you were eating.

The food is lack luster. The arugula salad was extremely overdressed and underwhelming. The Salmon was overcooked and under seasoned. Overall not great. Apparently the location is all that they have going for them.

Nothing wrong, but nothing impressive. Overpriced. Almost any place that puts gold on chocolate is trying to hard to be fancy. Although the cornbread and the chocolate bar were both good.

It wasn't terrible but it definitely wasn't what I'd expect from a resort. We ordered the ceviche which lacked flavor, my cauliflower tacos were decent and my husband said the tuna was flavorful although a little overcooked. All in all okay.

Really really good food here. Great atmosphere and kind of hidden in the hotel. The staff was rather slow. Especially since we were there at 8: 00 p.m. And there was only a few tables being used.

Super over priced for Applebee's quality food. Our server was great, very polite and pleasant but the good stuff stopped there. Ordered two cocktails then the bartender came over to up sell us, said no thanks, got the wrong drink and he made us the fancy drinks, found out on the bill. I ordered crispy cauliflower tacos, got cauliflower burnt to the point of being bitter on a store bought corn tortilla with store bought salsa. Green chili mac-n-cheese, no rue, just pasta alfrado with some hatched chili mixed in. My husband's veggi quesadilla was good. Will not be going back, save your money.

Came here just for coffees and dessert. It was night out and they had the heaters on outside with strings of lights hanging everywhere. Server was nice and desserts were delectable. They do have indoor dining available if you prefer. I would recommend to give this place a try.

Wasn't sure what to expect, but had one of the best meals of my life. The free range chicken was amazing and the BBQ fries were probably the best fries I've ever had. I couldn't stop eating them. It's a little spendy but the food is amazing. Worth it.
