Customer Review Summary

Sear restaurant offers a mix of dining experiences, with notably high-quality breakfasts and dinners. Many reviews highlight the friendly and engaging staff, particularly the omelette chef DJ, and the inviting ambiance. The food is often described as expertly prepared with fresh ingredients, and some dishes like the 1855 steak receive high praise. However, there are inconsistencies; while some guests found the food exquisite, others reported average meals and issues with menu accuracy.

Overall, Sear seems to be a hit or miss, appealing to those seeking a fancy night out but potentially disappointing others with service or menu issues.

Came here for breakfast expecting a typical hotel breakfast. It was anything but! The omelette chef, DJ, was so friendly and engaging (the kind of employee every business wishes they had), there were so many choices from lox to grits to fruit to every hot dish. The atmosphere was beautiful. I would definitely highly recommend Sear!

I recently dined at Sear restaurant and was thoroughly impressed with the overall experience. From the moment I entered, the ambiance was inviting and elegant, setting the stage for a memorable meal. The service was impeccable, with attentive staff members who were knowledgeable about the menu and offered excellent recommendations. As for the food, it exceeded my expectations in every way. Each dish was expertly prepared, showcasing fresh and high-quality ingredients. The flavors were bold and nuanced, and the presentation was simply stunning. Whether it was the perfectly cooked steak or the flavorful seafood options, every bite was a delight to the senses. Overall, I would highly recommend Sear restaurant to anyone looking for a top-notch culinary experience. The combination of impeccable service, exquisite food, and inviting ambiance makes it a standout dining destination.

It is one of the restaurants inside Marriott hotel. We made reservations although it wasn’t crowded on weekend. The staff were friendly and ambiance was fine too. The food was average though. They haven’t updated the menu on their website either. We went to have lamb chops but they didn’t have it: the menu was completely different. We won’t go back

Fantastic scene with exquisite food and beautiful interior! Sylvester was a wonderful waiter who did his best to please. Honestly, everything on the menu looked amazing, but the 1855 steak with onion and garlic was beyond delicious. If you've got some money to spend on a very fancy night out with your significant other, this is a great option! The only difficulty is in finding the place.

Very relaxed setting with great food and fantastic drinks! Sat at the bar and ate. Great selection of beverages with a fast and friendly bartender with helpful drink suggestions. Also had breakfast here the day before so had to add the eggs benedict and breakfast buffet were fabulous as well! The fruit was super fresh and delicious!

Ate here for breakfast while at a work function. I did not get the buffet but a three egg omelette with hash browns and an English muffin. The waiter checked on us and took our orders right away. The order came out in good time and appeared freshly made. My Georgia omelette was good, it had fresh cooked greens and tomatoes. It was filling and I was glad I chose this. However, the hash browns were very greasy. The oil overpowered the potato. I only took two bites. The English muffin was toasted to almost burnt, but the middle was gooey and somehow reminded of something that was under cooked. I only ate half. The saving grace was the omelette. I enjoyed it enough to make up for not enjoying the hash browns and muffin.

High quality restaurant that is perfect for those staying at the hotel. Steak was cooked to perfection and the sea bass was flavorful. The glass of wine was a tad pricey but nothing to complain about.

Absolute worst experience one could have. I waited an hour to eat here after checking into the hotel. They weren't serving alcohol...? I ordered a steak medium rare and it was well done. Actually, it was more like shoe leather. The service was horrendous. Complete waste of money and time. I would have gotten a better meal at McDonalds. Do not come and waste your money. This place is trash!
