This is a good place for a chill dark atmosphere type of restaurant, the food was good, looked nice, just, sorry to say lack luster, it felt like it was missing something in the sauce or it was the fried onions, I do have to say the meat was cooked perfectly though, with a little more time needed on the asparagus.

Service doesn’t match the cost of the food. Food was great but couldn’t tell who my server was. And they give you the check before you ask. Where’s the etiquette?

The Ambience was fine but the food and service were not up to the mark. We got Poblano Zucchini soup and Wings dipped in Chili mango sauce. The soup was okay but we couldn’t taste the mango in the chicken wings. It was like the fried chicken was dipped into a Sweet and Salt sauce.

They have a great breakfast buffet. I think the eggs may have been real. On the weekend they had a omelet station, salmon, baked chicken legs, green beans. Yes this is breakfast. They also had gravy, waffles, bacon, sausage, potatoes, French toast, yogurt, coffee, apple/orange juice. The egg guy seemed cool. Waitstaff seemed nice

Our first brunch since before the pandemic started. I counted all of four serving staff with an unknown amount of cooks to take care of the entire restaurant. Yes, they were strapped, but they definitely earned our repeat business. Everything was exceptional, and the food was brilliant as well. Probably the best classic eggs benedict I’ve ever had. The cleanliness was uncompromised, the service was outstanding, the Ambiance was refreshingly inviting, and the food was layered in flavors.

I ordered the shrimp scampi, it came with the pasta so dry it was clumped together. I very quietly requested some sauce I was told they were out of the pasta but that I could have the penne instead. By this time the server was pouting and the pasta dry again. I paid $30.00 for a meal I couldn’t eat plus a 20% tip.

We had a hockey tournament all weekend and I was happy their restaurant and bar was so easily accommodating. They have food and drinks at the tiki bar in the pool also. I really enjoyed Urban 42. I really like the walleye tacos they had an awesome panko crust. The grilled cheese and tomato soup was so comforting but the dish was very well put together…..super fancy and also the tomato soup was more like a light marinara but dipping the grilled cheese in the soup was such a perfect pair of flavors. The Sangria was huge you are getting your money worth. The highlight of the drinks was the old fashioned, the bartenders take their time on this drink and it’s so delicious especially the cherries. I enjoyed my time, not only is the food good but the bartenders are super nice and even though they were overworked they were always moving. I would recommend a waitress to help out in the bar area especially during such a busy weekend filled with teams from Colorado, Roseville, MN and Las Vegas and so many other people. They also had a band on Thursday evening and it was awesome to see all the couples get up and dance. The bacon Mac and cheese was very filling and nice and smokey. The soup was disappointing the chicken wild rice soup wasn’t thick and lacked flavor. The Asian wings were crispy and the glaze was perfect, it came with a slaw salad and the dressing mixed perfectly with the wings.

I thought our cost would be around $20-40 to find out that there ain’t much that inexpensive on the menu, maybe for lunch but this was at least $40 and up.

The chicken and waffles were so delicious! The chicken was quite moist and flavorful. This is a good place especially if you have status with Marriott.
