It's been a long drive so for the first night, it's room service in the room.
It's all the same food from their one kid-friendly restaurant, bar and grill fare with a couple more dollars for the convenience.
They do some pretty good burgers, like the Jackalope Burger, which has my favorite toppings; mushrooms and blue cheese.
The Steakhouse Burger is fun as well - same patty topped with short rib and swiss, meat-on-meaty bliss.
The Spiral Noodles and Cheese from the kid's menu becomes a family favorite. It's a generous portion for any child, and my under-2 eats the entire thing every time.
Lunch and dinner will do just fine, but avoid the breakfast buffet at all costs. A proper entree costs a little less, and the quality is so much better. The buffet eggs are so dry they taste like powder, and the only thing worth getting is the Belgian waffle because you make it yourself.
Opt for a bowl of Steel-Cut Oatmeal if you're looking for something hot and simple. It's an even texture and comes with cinnamon, raisins, and brown sugar.
The Lox & Bagel is a bigger plate with plenty of smoked salmon and my latest obsession; capers. Order an extra bagel and the salmon will serve two.
Other items include a Philly Cheesesteak with beef that could be just a little less bland and dry.
Pulled Pork Nachos are enough for two, no other orders needed, and are surprisingly delicious. The toppings cover the top layer of chips and drizzle down to the ones beneath, plenty of tender pulled pork and gooey queso to go around.
Jack's Buffalo Wings are best with basketball and beer. Plenty of flats and drums in a pound, and the sweet BBQ sauce is a good one.
Casarecci Short Rib Pasta is a dinner entree and not one I would recommend. The ragu is watery and thin, not what I'd expect for something that's supposed to be slowly stewed.
The Mini Pizza is a kid-pleaser,
but the Design-a-Cupcake is a disaster. The cupcakes fall apart when you pick them up so they are impossible to frost, and all you get is frosting and sprinkles so there's not much designing to be done.
I liked it but I didn't love it, but no one loves the resort restaurant where they have to eat. Overall the food was at least fine, and the experience was quite positive overall.
