Garden Court Restaurant

Okay, I feel a little weird that came here for take-​out (it’s at the Marriott). I had a buy one get one coupon so I figured, hey, why not. While I was waiting for my food, there were two customers (different parties) and were frustrated at the service and food. One of them was severely pissed off. I felt really bad for the waiter and supervisor because they were short-​staffed (the restaurant wasn’t busy, just didn’t have enough of a wait staff). Anyways, I waited peacefully in the lobby.
I ordered a seared ahi dish and a shrimp scampi dish. It tasted like gourmet airline food. Not the economy cabin food but when you sit 1^st class. You know, when the airline (and the subcontracting food company) try really hard to make the food look gourmet and taste good. You have to give it up to those airline people, a pat on the shoulder at the minimum for trying to make your food somewhat bearable; they do try (it even costs the airline, on average, $ 5 per person for each economy cabin passenger they serve).
Anyways, sorry to get off on a tangent. The food was really gourmet airline type. For example, the ahi was fresh but there was just something about it that made me think it was airline food-​ish. The shrimp was HUGE. Again, a pat on the back for trying (it’s the thought that counts right??). However, the sauce was completely absorbed by the over-​dry wild rice pilaf.
If you are still reading this review, a pat on your back as well; just avoid this place.
