text: This was not a pleasant experience. The hotel was over run with 900 hospitality event attendees filling every nook and cranny with loud conventioneers. The restaurant was noisy so we asked the hostess to seat us in a quieter spot. She took us to a table right in the middle....probably the loudest spot in there. We then asked our waitress to move us which she did.\nThe food is expensive but that is to be expected for the Biltmore.  But it is over priced for the quality and the small portions. My crab cake BLT was $18 and was cold and greasy. The fries were the saving grace, being crisp and delicious.\nT. Cooks at Royal Palm or  Elements at The Sanctuary are far better hotel restaurant alternatives. I would not go back.
