The Collab is supposedly "known for its fusion of Mediterranean and Asian flavors in a stylish, artful setting". In our 2 meals there I had a pizza for dinner and a breakfast sandwich the next morning. For a 3 meal hotel restaurant, I thought they did a great job. In the morning my wife had their "version of a pancake" which was very custardy in the middle and a bit strange but still good. You want to make a pancake where it is cooked on the outside and still soft on the inside? Sure, why not. Not our fave but the service and buildout were good and especially when we stuck with the more traditional fare, everything was delicious.

The staff was friendly and attentive, and the service was smooth throughout the evening. We ordered the margarita pizza and the vegetable pizza, both of which were very good. We also had the broccolini as a side, which was tasty, and the chicken, which we enjoyed as well. Everything came out nicely prepared and well-paced. We arrived later in the evening, which may have helped with being seated quickly, even without reservations. Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience and a great option if you're staying at the hotel or nearby

Such a fun pit-stop to add to your day if you're staying at The Biltmore…read more I had the pleasure of spending a beautiful and relaxing trip to The Biltmore in which we were able to enjoy this gorgeous bar on the lower lobby of the hotel. The Biltmore Bar has an elegant old Hollywood ambiance decorated with immaculate gold and brass decorative light fixtures, decor pieces, furniture and finishes that are unique to the one of a kind luxury that encapsulates the Biltmore. The service was exactly what you'd expect the Biltmore to be, exceptional! The bartender prepared exceptional Cocktails, both stiff and beautiful to sip on. We opted for a light bite since we had dinner plans with friends elsewhere, and for the first time I indulged in caviar! I am delighted to report I knew this was the best place to have a first The Caviar Deviled Eggs were absolutely sensational. The creamiest, most delicious bite I had the pleasure of savoring throughout my entire stay here. They were sooooooo good! If you're on the verge but feeling valiant, you won't regret taking this leap with this dish! Or truly another on this menu: all the drinks and bites are divine!

They were raving about how much they enjoyed the Biltmore Bar when they were here a few weeks prior, so we all decided to go together. Despite it being a weekend, we got a table right as we walked in. All the seats at the bar also appeared to be available, but were all taken within a half hour after we showed up. They had live music that was wonderful. It just added to the ambiance. Our server came over pretty quickly and we ordered drinks. They have a huge drink selection and I think they are well priced despite it being The Biltmore. I got the Heartbreaker martini for $18 and it was so delicious! It was light and fruity, just what I was looking for. My husband got an espresso martini that was also delish. Our server left us to hang out but periodically checked on us. I just loved everything about this place. If you're looking for a refined, chill environment to enjoy a drink, definitely come here.

Enough alcohol to feel something but not a strong alcohol taste. They really tasted like their descriptions. Tasted like real fruit, not artificial.

Azucar has recently gone through yet another transition, with primary host/MC Marytrini departing…read moreafter a few years here, and taking with her many of the same staff that have seemingly followed her to every club and establishment she's been involved with. We've come here a few times in recent weeks and the place is running nearly the same as it always has for at least a few decades, through changes in drag hosts, management and even changes to this venue's name over those years. We tend to come just before showtime so there's normally always a cover (worth it for the entertainment patrons get to see), friendly bartenders and a drag show featuring talented performers, with at least one normally interacting with patrons and doing comedy during a break in the performances, before opening up the floor for dancing once the show is complete. Azucar isn't located near much of anything else when it comes to nightlife, it's a bit divey - definitely nothing fancy or glamorous, and it's probably not worth the drive from the beach just to check it out, as at least one other reviewer mentioned. Also, all shows and entertainment, aside from lyrics to a few songs here and there are in Spanish with no English translation, so if you don't speak Spanish or have someone who can interpret at least some of the funniest bits that get the most laughs, you may not fully understand what's happening or may feel a bit left out. That said, if you're just looking for a solid drag show or appreciate Latin nightlife, this is definitely an option.

We ordered the T-bone and the Korean BBQ steak. Both were fantastic. The T-bone was cooked perfectly medium and was incredibly juicy. The Korean BBQ steak felt like the riskier choice, but it paid off. It had fantastic flavor, with a little bit of a kick, and was a nice leaner option. The surprise star of the meal was the Brussels sprouts. These are hands down some of the best I've had at a restaurant. The combination of savory ham, sweet jam, and tangy blue cheese sauce worked beautifully. If you're a blue cheese fan, do not skip this one! For dessert, we shared the Beauty Cake. It was rich without being overly sweet, which I appreciated. The hazelnut crunch and scoop of ice cream on the side took it to another level. And of course, you can't leave without trying one of their cookies. Consider it mandatory. Service was excellent throughout the evening. Our waiter checked in regularly, offered great recommendations, and helped make the celebration feel special. We had great seats near the bar, the atmosphere was relaxed, and the overall vibe was lively without being overwhelming. My only minor let-down was the condition of the bathrooms. It was a busy night, so I understand they were getting a lot of traffic, but they could have used a quick check-in and cleaning during service. Overall, it was a wonderful experience with great food, attentive service, and a fun atmosphere. Looking forward to coming back and working my way through more of the menu.

9 Feet Under is exactly what a speakeasy should be…read more From the outside, the building is completely unassuming, almost easy to miss. But that's part of the charm. Once you step inside, you're transported back to the Prohibition era with a moody atmosphere, intimate setting, and all the character you'd hope to find in a true speakeasy experience. The cocktails are unquestionably the star of the show. Thoughtfully crafted, well-balanced, and presented with attention to detail, each drink feels like part of the experience rather than just something to sip on. Add in a live DJ, great music, and an energetic crowd, and the result is a place with incredible vibes from start to finish. Whether you're looking for a unique date night, a nightcap, or a spot to impress friends from out of town, 9 Feet Under delivers. Joe, at the door, was very welcoming. Fabricio, the mixologist, was a true craftsman. We'll definitely be back.
