| - I usually come to Evoke for breakfast when staying at the Meridien.
Breakfast: For my SPG platinum gift I'll usually take the breakfast option because I've found you can pretty much spend anything within reason. I've had most items on the breakfast menu: pancakes, lox and bagel, eggs and sausage, oatmeal, yogurt etc etc. The pancakes are definitely different -- brioche inspired, and not my favorite, but I could see how someone could them. The lox is hit or miss, which honestly is expected outside of NYC. The eggs are too buttery for my taste, but the sausage is excellent! Finally, the oatmeal is seriously sweetened with this lavender honey (not my thing!) so beware, and the yogurt is just yogurt, but it's always presented nicely!!
The service is very amicable, but it's not super fast -- budget around 30 min to get in and out. In addition, if you didn't have a breakfast coupon, Evoke is pretty $$$ for a simple breakfast so it might not be worth it. Then again, there's not much else in the area, so could be your best bet!
