Visited on 4/11/2018 for breakfast at approximately 8:40 am. Website shows full sitdown menu offered during breakfast hours. This was not the case. We had a choice of continental breakfast or buffet. We chose the buffet and was told to seat ourselves. Hot items available were French toast, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes. There was some oatmeal, bagles and pastries and some fruit.
Hot items were cold and soggy. Not very tasty.
We had to get our own silverware and coffee. They charge about $18 per plate for the buffet.
We were charged at 15% gratuity for a waitress who did absolutely nothing but bring us the bill!!
The waitress asked my wife how the food was and my wife expressed her displeasure. The waitress didn't apologize just made excuses.
DO NOT HAVE BREAKFAST HERE!

Over priced mediocre at best food. Where to start, I tried their surf and turf and requested my steak medium rare. My steak came medium - medium well as there was no pink in the center. Lobster was good but the steak was terrible. Another night I ordered a Caesar salad with the half roasted chicken with red bliss potatoes, spinach, and thyme jus. The red bliss potatoes were absolutely the worst I've ever had. They reminded me of the boxed dried scalloped potatoes you find in the supermarket pressed together and burned top and bottom. The salad was warm and tasted terrible, the chicken was simply okay. For what they charge you would mistake them for a 5 star restaurant however they are far from it. To make matters worse my food took nearly an hour to bring out! Avoid this place as I'm sure you can find much better food a little outside of town.

We met with friends at this restaurant for a meeting. my friend recommended this restaurant. Well, we were not disappointed. The crew were extremely nice and we felt good. The food was just great. We loved this spot very much and we will visit this place again. Keep it up.

Dinner for eight, early on New Year's eve. Swordfish dry, rice just laid on plate with undercooked plantins. Dry, unappetizing, way overpriced. Rare hamburger came out gray, tasteless. Watching the open kitchen was something we should have done before ordering. The most overpriced, disappointing end of year meal in memory.

I lived in Indigo, and came here for breakfast. Firstly, my impression was that I will get a complimentary breakfast buffet. When I reached, I saw some buffet ready. However, the person told me that is not for public, meant for some private party . Well, I kinda accepted and sat to eat the breakfast ( not free off course). That guy only while showing me my table gave me a menu. There is no wide varieties available, so soon I made my mind and was waiting for my server. But there was nobody. People passing by, working in another table. After a while, I started questioning myself, am I invisible today . At last I asked some lady to stop by my table. She saw me but did not come. Even after 7-10 minutes somebody appeared, and took my order. She never asked me for water ! Surprisingly the food came quickly after that, followed by the check. The food was okay, the potatoes were over fried. The egg was greasy ( little better than the Waffle House breakfast). Then I asked the server lady for water. She heard and never came back. Again I asked some other person to serve some water. He also did not show up. Lastly when that server finally came to take my signature, I asked for water. She even did not apologize, and gave some water finally. This place really sucks, looks quite fancy though. But worst service ever ( I don t know if they do this kinda service to all, or just to any international / brown ! ).

On a nice day, sitting at the outside bar can't be beat. Bartenders are good, friendly and pour nice drinks. Sneak in on a weekday afternoon and you might get the pool to yourself for a hour.

I wish I could leave a 0 star. This place is garbage and so is the millennial staff who would rather sit behind the bar and make each other drinks and then not put in the food we ordered 45 mins ago.

Been there about 6 times now. And I don't like reviewing without a real handle on it.

Nothing is cheap or even 'inexpensive', but every steak and dish has been very good to great, and the lack of any resistance to any request (char the steak more while Medium rare, special sauces made, my lactose issue, my son's making his own pizza up) has been nothing short of spectacular.

The wine list deserves special praise, though the older bottles are dwindling (or else I drank all the Dead Arm 04), as it is complete and well thought out.

not to mention my son played tamborine with the band last time. The full house in the bar area on Tuesday evening speaks volumes for what has been done there. Bravo.

The DJ on Friday and Saturday nights is AWFUL. Painful, even. He plays the same set of annoying music week after week. If you request a song he responds: "I play what I want to hear. I don't take requests". He must be the owner's son - the only sense I can make of it. The food is ok- but pricey.

The pool party we had was good, we had music, the appetizers were really tasty. The problem... We found mold on some of their food! They either didn't check or they reused the food. Really gross. Everything else was tasty, the meats were good. But the taco shells... Not so much.

This was my second time at this place. First time great service but the steak was not great at all. Better at Sky. This time I ordered steak tips medium rare they were wrong twice...at a steakhouse! The 99 doed a betyer job! I only got one drink as the waitress never asked me about my empty glass until five or ten minutes before we were ready for the bill. Service was terrible. The spot is great so this is really disappointing :(

The absolute slowest service I have experienced in years. The server was stoic and not pleasant. Paper menu? Are you kidding for the price. Will not be returning unless hanging at the pool. Why is this place rated so high? No idea

Were staying at the hotel for a game this weekend and went down for lunch. There were 4 other tables seated and what looked to be 4-6 employees around the bar or running out to the pool. The table next to us asked for his check and was rudely told he needed to wait for his server (they had been waiting for their check as we sat down mind you). After 15 minutes of not being greeted we ended up leaving without ever even having a drink order placed. It s a shame we couldn t experience the good reviews this restaurant had. We ended up grabbing protein bars in the room and heading to the city to eat. Awful service.

I would not recommend this restaurant. I found the service to be very slow, and the food mediocre at best. They forgot the bacon on my burger, and once I was finally able to flag down the waitress, she brought me a plate of the greasiest bacon I have ever seen.

It took a very long time to put in food/drink order after being seated, a long time for the food to come, and when the food eventually arrived it was dumped by an overworked food runner who did not ask if I needed anything. I had no silverware, salt/pepper, water, etc.

I'm debating with myself how to rate this restaurant, on one end the Tenderloin Steak was superb , on the other hand I tried first the Flintstone steak, and the meat was bad (so much that I almost vomit just by smelling it) if it wasn't due to an event I would not stay and would not order something else,
the steak was just rotten really!!!

on top of that , you expect that if something like that happened (and several guests smelled it) the chef will come to apologize , but no nothing!
so the chef to me should get 5 for steak flavor (well at least not good steak) , 0 for bedside manners , or care of his customers,

visit again : skirt steak was really good, the salmon was good, and the fries (mix) was great. ice cream not that good..

Worthless....we waited for 15 minutes to get a table. Personell just ignored us...while it was'nt busy at all. We left...personell was just rude...nobody took time to came to us...Not spending my money there.

Nice atmosphere, surprisingly empty on a Thursday evening. Bread was plentiful, but boring. Drinks refreshing, but the waiter was disappointed that we only ordered one, even though he asked us 3 times if we wanted another. The food was served fresh and hot, though a bit short of the menu description. The convenience of the hotel restaurant v a place we would eat on a night out. Disappointed at the service, when we needed it from Manager Mike, but that happens. Maybe next tome we ll have better luck.....

This was truly the worst dining experience of my life - I never bother to write reviews usually but in this case I feel so violated by the experience I feel compelled to write as many reviews as I can to let others know what to really expect. The food is beyond sub par it is down right horrid. The service is non existant - they have NO service just people who stand around and look at you. Bad - Awful -Worst - I would rather starve

Comfortable, nice feel and classy. The steak was very good and well prepared. Everything was great except my manhattan, which was just not quite right. But the recommended wine was good, the ambiance was right, and I'll come back for sure.

This place is the one I always prefer. I visit many restaurants but to this place I keep coming back again and again. The crew is very chummy and the cooking they place on your table is so fresh and tasty. I never decline to have a nice dinner in this place. Highly recommended.

I celebrated my nomination yesterday in this fine place. happy to tell that we enjoyed a marvelous evening and the restaurant was no doubt the reason for that strong meeting. The waiters helped in a sweet style, the cuisine was great and my buddies were extremely thrilled. We shall definitely come back again for more events. thanks very much.

We have been here for breakfast because the restaurant has been right in our hotel. But the food was rather average, but quite pricey. The service was friendly but a bit awkward (temporary help) in the evening we have been there once, there was something close to kitchen. The food itself was okay. The service again friendly and competent this time.

With an upscale hotel atmosphere, a creative and flavourful menu, and a fine selection of crafted cocktails, this restaurant already would be worth a visit. Add some top notch, live music (like Diane Blue and band) and you have about everything you could want for a full and satisfying evening. However, service was inattentive (I had to get silverware and napkins for my table after our dinner was served with none!) and unapologetic, so only 4 stars.

It's hard to complain about poolside food and drink service! Bokx 109 offers a comprehensive variety of menu options for affordable prices. I can only give them four stars because it took nearly an hour for the servers to bring out the salad we ordered.

Your classic American hotel lounge bar and grill with friendly service good local beers selection and top of the Shelf whiskeys and Bourbons.
it is an hotel lounge bar so the prices will be a bit pricey... however the food is exceptionally well made, the portion are generous and the service is exceptional.

The place is recommended.

Pricey, but having eaten here many times as a guest at the hotel, I can definitely say that I've had several of my best meals in Boston at this restaurant.

The pear and marscapone sacchetti is absolutely delicious and worth the trip to Newton in itself. The lobster cauldron was also delicious. The menu is seasonal and has changed since my last visit, but everything I tried was good and I worked my way through the winter 2012 menu.

The bar menu had several different items that were also delicious.
