Stayed the LXR 1000 and decided to eat dinner at their restaurant. We made reservations in advance of our stay. We were seated immediately upon arrival. The staff did a wonderful job in being attentive and taking care us. The food was great with the exception of the pasta we ordered. It came out somewhat cool. Would've tasted better if actually hot. The risotto, soup, and pork belly all tasted great. We ordered a secondary dessert as they were out of their key lime creme brulee. The value for the food was ok for what we received. Overall we had a great evening. We may give them another shot if we return in the future.
