Weekend breakfast buffet:
There was all this food that looks like it was sitting there for a couple hours...and the place was empty....and it didn't look like any one else was going to be having a late brunch, so..........
I ate an entire mountainous plate of bacon and sausage.
And, a entire mountainous plate of eggs and potatoes.
My friend being a petite woman had maybe a 10th of what I had...and some other healthy things =P
She, was kinda in shock that i had killed all that food in one sitting.
I would had camped out and finished the entire tray of bacon, but we had stuff to do. dang.
Service was pretty thin. We had to keep walking around to get oj and water.
At the same time, no one bugs you while you're gorging on your pork products.
So my husband and I came here for dinner on Friday night, my girlfriend manages this restaurant so we got the VIP treatment :). We had just missed the dinner crowd which apparently comes from the Performing Arts center so there was more than enough seating. We had a bottle of wine at my friends suggestion, it was a malbec from Argentina. sure wish I got the name it was an excellent recommendation.
We ordered some appetizers, duck tacos, tuna tartar and these mozzarella "poppers" (wish I remembered the name had a little to much to drink) ;). Not sure about the duck tacos, I am a little hesitant eating animals which are not the norm, probably would have been better off if I didn't know which meat I was eating. The tuna tartar was excellent, the perfect amount of wasabi and the tuna tasted fresh. The mozzarella "poppers" were delicious!
I ordered the flat Iron steak and my hubs ordered coffee rubbed filet mignon. Both were so delicious and cooked to perfection. Mine came with chimichurri sauce...oh my goodness I could put that sauce on everything it was so good!
We of course ended the meal with dessert of creme brulee and these little mini cupcakes. 5 of them on a plate. So cute and delicious. Had a delicious dessert wine and literally rolled myself out of there. I live 20 minutes from here and don't know how I made it home in my food induced coma. Wow I may have over done it but damn that food was good. Can not wait to go back and apparently this is a new menu so looking forward to try everything on the menu.
I want to preface this review with the fact that I am usually a fan of Starwood properties, I also want to add the fact that this particular Sheraton looked very nice upon entering. This is where my compliments end..
My old man took me to watch some performance at the Cerritos Performing Arts center and given that we were in a time crunch, we ducked into the Sheraton next door to grab a quick bite to eat before the show started.
What we ordered:
Poached pear and gorgonzola salad - raspberry vinaigrette dressing was overly sweet, almost tasted like raspberry syrup and it ruined the entire salad
Appetizer trio (coconut shrimp, fried calamari and wontons) -
coconut shrimp was drenched in some nasty syrup that made the fried crust completely soggy and prevented you from tasting actual shrimp.
fried calamari was soggy and it disintegrated in your mouth which is a really disgusting texture for fried calamari to have.
fried wontons had a filling with a strange consistency like samosas you order at indian restaurants, only they weren't good like samosas and tasted burnt and over seasoned
Bottom line: when you know for a fact that you could've had a better meal with a microwave dinner, that's when you know that the food was crap. It seems to be a trend these days, to provide great customer service and serve mediocre food - THIS IS NOT OKAY. Stay away.
Decided to go here for a 9 am breakfast for Christmas morning. Â Wanted to try something different and there weren't a whole lot of places open. Â
It's inside the Sheraton, which is a nice enough hotel. Â There's a bar and outdoor seating although during breakfast I didn't see anybody out there. Â Others reviewed this place for dinner and after hours cocktails (I can see how it might be a decent place for that sort of thing). Â We had the breakfast buffet which had the usual fair, cereal, oatmeal, brown sugar, rasins, pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, danishes, has browns, toast, yogurt, etc. Â $15 per person.
It's a nice place to go but you could get a decent enough breakfast for under $10 at Denny's. Â Nothing special about the food other then that it's a buffet and somewhat nicer atmosphere. Â Good service though. Â The waitress was very attentive.
This nice lounge is located inside the Sheraton. Was here for an afterparty of my girlfriend's wedding. The interior is nicely decorated and they have nice tv's. The bartender knows how to make stiff drinks. Its a full bar, but they don't really have a wide selection of beers. No bluemoon :(. But I would come back with my friends if we don't feel like drinking at a rowdy bar and just want to grab a drink and relax.
Review Source:Just came back from the Sheraton Hotel/Grille 91 watching the Laker game, and apparently, they have live music there every Thursday night. The band is a jazz group called the Art of Sax, and they played a very eclectic mix. They also sound very good and a few ladies even danced when their songs played. I highly recommend coming here for the live music and dinner or relaxing at the bar. They play from 5pm to 8pm.
For Thursdays during the summer, the restaurant has special buffet-like deals also from 5-8pm, in addition to their regular dinner menu. Today's happened to be an all-you-can eat pasta buffet with garlic bread, roasted vegetables, salad and a drink all for $8.95!
I felt I just had to share this gem with everyone.
