While having lunch, we changed the table as a nicer one as it became available and the server canceled our order - because he thought we left (despite of our moving only to a next table!). The manager tried his best to rectify the situation, but you could see how sour labor relations were contorting customer service.
When we stayed there a couple weeks ago, I thought the service at Pacific Edge was fairly mediocre for the prices they charge. Not outright rude, but just not very caring. Server never came back to ask if the food was okay or if we needed anything (I'd have loved some salt and pepper), never checked if I wanted a refill (or another, more likely) diet coke.
The California Market breakfast, on the other hand, was a fairly good experience. Got my coffee refills un-prompted, no wait for a table, overall friendly staff.
The lounge service was good, too. That's where we'll be having dinner again the next time. Same view at 1/4th the price of the Pacific Edge
