Meet the Manager

James B.

Manager

I have lived in Monterey for 5 years, and love the small town feel of this coastal paradise. Although I have lived in Colorado and Wisconsin, I am happy to call California «home.» I love the variety of outdoor activities in the area, and Hiking and playing Golf are my favorites. I also love all the wonderful food and wine here, and consider this area to be the perfect spot for admitted «Foodies» such a my wife and I.

I feel our Restaurants in the Monterey Marriott don’t get the credit they deserve for having great food, friendly and attentive service, and a good product in general. I have made it my mission to promote our Restaurants to the world! I hope you will come join us for breakfast, lunch, a coffee drink, or just a chat… We look forward to seeing you at Three Flags Café.

It’s inside The Marriot hotel. Made to order omelets, several different types of sides, make your own toast, pastries, waffles, yogurt, fresh fruit, smoothie of the day, etc. Friendly staff, prompt service, clean area and bathrooms. Great place for breakfast when you don’t want to wait a long time for food.

Great breakfast buffet, but for the charge it should be a much more selection, still like it I will be back.

Okay some of the mixed reviews; made me wondering… so, tried the breakfast buffet; it was very good; the omelet I had on the first day was very good. The oatmeal was very good; most people say how can you mess up oatmeal; believe me you can!!! I had an omelet both days — the spanish omelet was great!!! I loved the chorizo and the it wasn’t overly spicy; because coming from Phoenix some places don’t judge heat well when it comes to Latin food. Also, the corned beef hash was done well. I really enjoyed the meal…

We had the breakfast buffet … not even the fancy one. but it was already 15 $ each … the one with meat and on demand eggs was 19 $.
Food was good, service nice, big choice of fresh things on the buffet. but even though. it was pricey !

Burgers were cooked too long. Well done was burned, medium was well done, etc.

Exquisite breakfast! I was able to have exactly what I wanted even if not listed on the menu (eg plain Greek yogurt). Fruit was fresh & ripe, everything was perfect! Oh yes, and my own carafe of freshly brewed HOT coffee!

Pretty good for a major chain hotel resturant but the selling point was the atmosphere. It was nice without being fancy and the downtempo (I think I’m using the right term) music was a nice change over jazz, muzak, and all of the other possible choices.

I have just attending a seminar at the convention center — and stayed at the Marriott where the Three Flags Café is. I have to say the food — completely lacking in every way! However — the STAFF gets a 5 star. For a rush of people surging into the restaurant at the same time, (we had reserved large tables both days of my seminar) the staff was great and patient enough to provide us with separate checks!

Classic hotel fare. I skipped the buffet, and opted for a breakfast sandwich. I pleaded for «burnt» hashbrowns, even though I suspected I would get the typical hotel version (undercooked and greasy). To my surprise, they sent out the burnt stuff! Attentive service, and quality ingredients.

I love me some buffet action. So when the server came by asking what we wanted, I was pretty sure I wanted the buffet, but I thought I’d check out what was going on there first.
Eggs and omelets to order? Fresh made waffles? Pastries, biscuits and gravy? Yes, please. Breakfast potatoes and bacon and sausage… yeah. I love all that shit. hehe.
The only thing that concerned me, though, was that they didn’t have any hash browns. Only corned beef hash. And that’s just not the same thing.
So instead of the buffet I ordered an omelet (hash browns came with it) and some yogurt. He promptly told me that he’d just get me the hash browns free of charge and that I should get the buffet because it would be cheaper that way.
Why, thank you, nice waiter dude! So, the 3 of us just ordered the buffet. It hit the spot, but I wouldn’t say that it was super delicious or anything. It was just conveniently located since we were staying at the hotel and I’m not from that area so we just went there since we didn’t know where else to go. The waiter was nice and also helpful.

I had a similar experience to Jen L. I wouldn’t eat here, however, if I wasn’t staying at the hotel. It is your typical hotel dining experience.

Our breakfast was complimentary with the hotel room. Putting that into consideration, I thought the brunch had a nice selection of pastries, fruit, and the usual bacon, sausage and potatoes. The brunch also included omlettes and waffles that were made order with your choice of toppings and fillings.
