The decor is STUNNING and there are 2 tables large enough for big groups. I really loved the ambiance and decor. The menu had a lot of reasonably priced options for food as well. 4 stars because one of our old fashioneds was served with a vibrant red cherry that had a pit in it. So it wasn’t the usual luxardo cherry that I am used to having. I also love that there is an overwalk that connects you to Santo Cielo.

Great selection of food on the breakfast menu. They open early for breakfast in the morning and again for dinner + drinks in the evening. Although priced slightly higher than other grab and go options nearby, we found this place to be one of the better sit down options. The sampled menu items were all tasty and well presented. Even a simple bowl of oatmeal was nicely put together with plenty of fresh fruits. Refer to pictures. Would recommend the French toast and 3 egg omelet with veggies and meats of your choice. Being located on the second floor of Hotel Indigo meant a quieter ambience for your meal. Yet at the same time balanced by decor that was warm, welcoming, and comfortable. The staff were all courteous and just nice people in general. They were very attentive to your needs like refilling coffee and juice.

Stay at the Indigo at least once a year and really enjoy ending my day at the bar with the great staff. Starting my day with breakfast is the perfect way to start the day. I like to sit by the window with a great view of Water Street. On my current visit my servers Nay & Josh were great. Cheerful and provided excellent service.

We stayed at the Indigo for 3 nights and added breakfast to our room. There was a $25 limit per person, which sounded like a lot, but this restaurant was expensive. We hit or went over that amount every morning (you just pay the difference and tip). The Indigo Hotel was by far the best hotel experience I've had at an IHG location in years. And the restaurant did not disappoint. It was exceptionally clean, and even when it was busy - which it was over the Thanksgiving holiday - and there were only a few servers, the entire staff was on top of things. They were quick, responsive and friendly every single morning. And some even recognized us and greeted us in the mornings. My parents tried pancakes, French toast, sunny side up eggs, fruit, and juice and enjoyed every meal. I tried something different each morning too. The veggie omelet with potatoes, bagel and lox, and veggie Benedict were absolutely wonderful. The portions are huge, and I couldn't finish the omelet. And the lox was so delicious I forgot to take a picture until several bites in. The potatoes were really good, and even the wheat toast was incredible. My mom also likes the jams they provide. All around just excellent food and service. Yes, it was very pricey for breakfast, but I left sated. Oh, and the bathrooms in the back (away from entrance and only customers can use them) were pristine.

Staff was super nice and the environment is inviting with lots of dim bronze lighting and natural wood used in a lot of the decor. My breakfast came out perfect!
