cibolo moon - jw marriot

supergreatfood! the service was "spotty". the people behind us had a awesome waiter. ours was terrible. i tried to give her an out by asking her if she was busy tonight and she said "no". wow- no words.

nice experience. with family staying at the hotel, we decided to give this place a try. you have to try the margaritas and all the appetizers we had weregreat(brisket, tequila shrimp and jalepenos stuffed with cheese and wrapped in bacon). i had the pasta, which was flavorful and comforting and my husband enjoyed a huge bone-in ribeye.

slow but yummy. the service was a little bit slow for my liking here. there was apparently a fairly sizable order in front of ours, so our order took an hour to come out. our waiter, however, gave us some free chips and salsa while we waited for our food to come out. the organic spinach salad with pears and pecans was absolutely delightful. the carved bbq brisket and redfish on the half shell were alsogreatdishes. the cheddar mac and cheese is their most popular side and is most certainly worth a taste.

not good for any price!. wow,greatresort,greatcustomer service; really, really mediocre food. very disappointing.

my wife and i had a dinner and a breakfast at cibolo in the last 2 days and both were a waste of money at about $50-60 each.

for our appetizer, we tried a goat cheese something-or-other that was a small, luke-warm tray of goop. the accompanying bread, crusty baguette slices, was tough and chewy. not a good start.

my wife had a so-so hamburger ($13, if memory serves) but my chicken pasta dish was overburdened by smoky and bacon flavors. it was a heavy mess. to put it in perspective, you'd send this back if it was the olive garden.

the breakfast the next morning was about as poor. we decided to avoid the buffet, partially because we didn't want to compete with the throngs of people waiting on omelettes. the food took quite awhile to arrive (at least 15 minutes). the omelette was ok but unremarkable. the eggs benedict were pretty unremarkable - again, an ihop or denny's breakfast would have been hotter and faster. the waffles were undercooked and almost cold.

to their credit, i let management know (after yet another bad experience at another restaurant on the property) and they credited back one of the meals.

overall, we had a positive experience at the resort - it's really pretty, the overall customer service was very good, including at the restaurants.

but cibolo was so poor that we ended up leaving the property for breakfast on our last day, simply to avoid another mediocre and expensive dining experience.

great!. my experience at cibolo moon was wonderful. the host's made me feel very welcomed as did my server. they attended to our needs and assured us our food was how we liked it. the manager came by and talked with us which made us feel important. time management was excellent. we had agreattime and expect to go back for more!
