I’m quite honestly shocked that this place isn’t rated better on Google, it should be 5 stars hands down. We have been here multiple times and came this evening to celebrate a birthday. First off, the Garden City Hotel is in a class of its own and you can tell that they invest in keeping it up to date and stunning - the furniture in the lobby was all new and the hotel in pristine condition. Red Salt Room was truly an experience. The ambiance is beautiful and it appears they have updated some of the seating and furniture in the space to keep it feeling new and high-end which I appreciate.
The menu is definitely pricey but the selection robust and they also note Gluten Free items which I appreciate. We started with the octopus and watermelon feta salad which were both exceptional. I ordered the salmon which was fantastic, and my husband got the Iberico pork which was out of this world. The food is incredibly flavorful, gourmet, fresh and unique.
I don’t drink but was able to get a glass of non-alcoholic wine from Wolffer Estates here and it was such a treat that they serve this and other NA beverages. But what really stands out here is the service - it’s simply unmatched. A level I have never experienced before. JC and Jose especially were not only kind and attentive, but also made us feel at home from the second we walked in. We had two children (one toddler and one infant) with us and the second we walked in they brought out toys and coloring items for the kids, beverages for the kids in appropriate kids cups, kids menus, the works. They made me feel so comfortable and welcome with our children. And they even brought a hand-written birthday note which was a real treat.
Overall such a wonderful experience and absolutely worth it, especially if you are celebrating someone or something special and are looking for world-class service and food!
