    We come here every year on Dec 26th and after all this time, it doesn't disappoint. Even though it's a big place - the pandemic patio has been integrated into the main space - and there are many parties of 6 or more around the holidays, service is friendly and attentive, and food is consistently good. We ordered the trout, the fried chicken, and the green chile mac + cheese, and all were excellent. Also, glad to see that they still have the cornbread on the menu.

    My family and I were looking for a place to have a drink and a snack On Christmas Day while we waited for my daughter to get off work at the movie theater at the mall. Naturally, we struggled with finding a place that was open on Christmas Day, but we knew that most hotels would have something open. I went onto Open Table to see who had reservations available nearby, and this popped up. I had remembered seeing this new hotel by the mall a couple of days prior, so I knew it was close. I made the reservation so we knew we had a spot, and I'm so glad we did! What a Christmas treat! The service was excellent, and everyone was cheery despite having to work on Christmas. Even when we told our server we were just having a drink and a snack and not a full dinner, she didn't seem upset or phased by it at all. We also had 2 finicky teenagers with us, and they loved it. The crab sushi bombs were such a huge hit with the picky teens that they ordered another one after having devoured the first order in less than 3 minutes. My mom and I had the spinach dip, and it was marvelous! The teens even got in on that and said they loved it! Teens eating spinach voluntarily?? Yes please. We will definitely be going back there. It was great.

    Classy atmosphere in Cesars Republic hotel, impeccable service with coordinated plate service by the staff. Three of us started with the arugula salad with crispy prancetta and candied lemons…yum, and the Lemon pizza…fantastic! For entrees the table had the Signature Lemon Spaghetti with shrimp…wow, the Nodi Marini Ala Vodka with a mild arrabbiatta sauce, and the Pan Seared Salmon on a bed of artichokes olives and capers…awesome!. Nice bar and outdoor seating area. Overall, a little pricey but service, food quality, and venue helped to build the value.

    What a pleasant experience!!! We came here on Christmas Eve for dinner and all the way from the food to the service it was all amazing! Beautiful restaurant, everything is so spaced out yet it can accommodate so many tables/people. The laaarge outdoor patio was also very nice to go out to after for a drink. We ordered quite a few menu items for just the two of us because we simply could not resist trying a variety of the menu items and not a single complaint ! This place was stunning during the holiday season and so nicely decorated. Thank you for making our Christmas Eve even a bit more special, we will be back!

    Food for five persons were very good with great services and hospitality.We ate our dinner at five pm and the outdoor dining area were pretty dark as there are no ceiling lights but do have small table LED light lamps and under bench lighting. Some of us had hard hard time reading the menus with low lights but was managed somehow. We will go there again with better daylights.
