Embers Lounge

This is the only restaurant option of staying at the plaza hotel at Laguardia so we ate here while staying at the hotel a few times out of convenience sake. That being said, the food is nothing special but the prices sure seemed like the food should be special. 20 dollars for a plate of penne pasta with vegetable sauce — it better be some good pasta. But it wasn’t. Probably one of the worse pastas I’ve ever ordered at a restaurant. Good if you want a plate filled with bland vegetables but not good if you were looking for a hearty pasta meal. The steak tasted like something from a Chilis but the prices were fine dining prices. The sampler was good and I’d say fairly priced. The gumbo was also good but the portion was tiny, don’t order if you’re very hungry unless you’re getting an appetizer.
I would go here again just out of convenience sake of staying at the hotel. The food wasn’t terrible and I’m paying for the convenience. But would I seek out this place if I wasn’t staying at the hotel? Absolutely not!
