Service and food overall met expectations (especially the scallop appetizer) but the Caeser salad was drowning in dressing and the cocktails were on the sweet side. A bit pricey too.

Typical corporate hotel food, this hotel is more of a fancy Hampton Inn. My server Ivette was fantastic. You can genuinely see her authenticity in her service.

Ate three times at Dogwood Bistro this week and the food was really good. I had the NY Strip Steak, Chicken Sandwich and the awsome short ribs that was seasoned perfectly and was served with mash potatoes and asparagus. Food was served quick and hot. The prices are quite fair for all the items on the menu. The staff was very attentive and ensured I had a wonderful experience each and every night. Conveniently located in the Double Tree Hotel inside and right off of the lobby area. Really enjoy having this perk in the hotel, after a long day this is an exceptional experience and very appreciated!

If I could give 10 stars for the service Bill at the bar gave, I would. His service and pleasant nature as well as the support team is the reason I come back to this hotel. Kitchen does a fine job with a decent entree selection. Thanks for the memories.

Nice little bar / restaurant. Prices are okay for the area and service is good. Food tastes great and drinks are poured with a heavy grip.
