Restaurant staff had no idea how to record my BonVoy membership number in their system when paying for the meal so I have not been credited with those points that were critical to avoid expiration of my current points total on 8 Jan 2025. This was the sole reason for dining there. Very disappointing.

Good place for a nice brunch experience although our food took some time to be served. Also was difficult to get attention from front house staff. One of our items was missed during order, but they brought it out free of charge which was a good initiative.
