Total waste of money

Dining in the Wave restaurant was the worst restaurant experience I have ever had. The ambiance of the restaurant is wanna be chic. The food was blend and highly over priced. The service was the worst of all other things. The waiter was ignorant and inattentive, he disappeared after taking an order and did not bothered to check on our table.
Even if I had money to burn, I would not eat at the Wave, I rather just let my money burn to ashes.

The food here was mediocre for the price. As a cook, I can tell it was chosen because it was easy to prepare en masse for their "special" prix fixe menu for Valentine's. It was very overpriced at $75 a person, PLUS gratuity and drinks. Overcooked seafood, undercooked vegetables, and relatively uninteresting. Our server, Jorges, was very nice, the atmosphere was pleasant, and the wine was good, but I don't think I'd go back.

I went to wave to celebrate my 61 b-day with my daughter and her family and I had a lot of fun. We all ordered something different to sample. The small portions were great as we were able to try almost everything on the menu. Even the two kids with us had a great time and was able to eat. desserts were exceptional. there is a lot of misconception about hoptel restaurants but there wasn't here. service could be better but it was a great experience overall. i will definitely go back.
