    We booked Rosewater by Akira through OpenTable to celebrate my husband’s birthday with a party of ten, and unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. I didn’t realize when making the reservation that this was more of a lounge than a traditional restaurant, with an extremely limited tapas-style menu. Had I known, I would have chosen somewhere else for a birthday dinner with a larger group. While the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, the drinks and wine were also subpar, which added to the disappointment. I wish the limited dining options had been made more apparent. I take responsibility for not researching the venue more thoroughly beforehand, but I have to admit I was a little embarrassed, as I had planned what I thought would be a special birthday dinner for my husband and our guests. Unfortunately, this was not the experience I had hoped for. While I appreciate the kindness of the staff, I would not recommend this venue for a group looking for a proper dinner or special occasion celebration.

    Amazing meal. Started with the grilled octopus and tuna pizza. The entree was the lamb chops which were cooked to perfection.

    I wish they had more sushi appetizers. Also, they should validate the hotel parking.

    Food was terrible. The drinks were weak. The prices were outrageous for what they served. Parking prices were exorbitant. Never again.
