Descend 21

I ate supper pretty early, so there was not much of a crowd. Which is absolutely wonderful.The ambience and decor is just so delightful and clean and fun .Staff was very welcoming !!Miso crab crusted fish for dinner. It was one of the best I've ever had. Absolutely fresh and delicious and it just looked so beautiful. The presentation was absolute artwork and so nourishing.I really loved it !!!

I got the smash burger and truffle fries to go. It was so busy there wasn't seating available. It's a lot of food. I couldn't eat but half and I'm beyond stuffed. Truffle fries 10/10 probably the best truffle fries I have ever had. Delicious The burger was also delicious. Cooked perfectly. FULL OF FLAVOR. If I ordered the burger again I would probably take off the jam. There was so much flavor in the smash burger it doesn't need it. The jam is very sweet. My food to go was ready way sooner than I was told it would be. Which was awesome

For hotel food, this restaurant really hits it out of the park. Food, drinks, service and a welcoming atmosphere is on the menu each day. I really enjoyed the fish of the day the 3 times I visited. Perfectly cooked and seasoned.

Overall, a nice dining experience at Descend 21 at the Hyatt Regency. I was seated and served quickly. Menu offers a variety for different palates. Slight disappointment in the cook on the egg for the Korean Shortrib. The hummus was a nice appetizer paired with the entrees ordered. Plenty of seating options and sound level is good for conversations with your table.

Had the u a fries and they were amazing. Destin t taste and with a side of aioli sauce. Perfect amount of cheese. Service was fast and friend. I forgot my bartenders name but my server was Guillermo and both folks were great to work with. I arrived early afternoon so I beat the rush. Ambiance was nice, clean, and quiet. Would definitely come back if I have time on this work trip.

Went here recently for a company Christmas party and everyone had a blast!The service was great and the entire area has been redone to resemble an upscale sports bar with golf, pool tables, darts, etc. It definitely gives off a chill, upscale vibe that compliments the rest of the hotel perfectly. The food for our party was more grazing style but everything was delicious - chimichurri steak, yuca fries and a poke bar. We also had a s'mores bar with macaroons and other yummy bites for dessert.At the end of the night, we all ventured outside to sit by the fire and finish our drinks. It was a comfy cozy area to end a great event.

On our recent trip to Orlando, we stayed at the Hyatt Orlando. This restaurant is located downstairs inside this beautiful hotel/resort. It was not a really surprise that the food would be delicious based on the reviews but I loved their selection of cocktails and the variety of food to choose from. The servers were always friendly and very attentive.

Was staying at the hotel and so stopped by for a meal. When we checked in, we were also given a "comp wine with entree purchase" and so enjoyed that here too!Food: -Burger and fries: Fries were deliciously crunchy and nice and fat :) and seasoned well (of course, this is a preference thing). The burger was delicious as well, flavorful and medium rare was done well! -Steak: It was tender and very much a melt in your mouth type! I thought it was a lot, but my partner thought it was a little small for the price. It was still delicious, we thought though it would have been nice to get the sauce on the side.Ambiance:-it is biiiig! And the seating areas all have such different vibes which I think is so nice! It caters to whatever you're feeling and whatever group you're with. so I loved that! It was freeeezing inside though, but I think I was also seeing the windy brief hurricane and as a SoCal Gal, was a bit "O_O" by it all! But the freeze definitely was more me because everyone eating there was in tank tops.... heh.Service:-Very friendly and prompt! Price:-it is on the pricier side just for burger/fries, but I guess it falls under the more fancy dining type so it works! I thought it was still delicious and for a hotel meal, wasn't too surprisedOverall:-I don't think I'd personally get the steak again (but I originally ordered the burger...heh so that tells you my pref), but I would get the burger and fries! If we're ever back in the area though, would definitely consider coming back!

Drink, play, drink at the bar below the bar!The Hyatt was busy at work during the pandemic, taking that time to fix up the downstairs to create Descend 21, which is an eat/drink/play area for adults. There's a Top Golf Simulator, darts, pool tables, couches, lounge chairs, a bar, high top tables, lots of TVs. You can get appetizers to nibble on, full dishes and craft drinks.Descend 21 is hard to find only in the sense that when you walk to the left of registration, you see a bright bar and hear music, which is the bar right above it, Rocks. You get to Descend 21 at the same spot. Instead of taking the curved steps up, look to take the steps down a level. Rosemarried & Divorced (Bourbon, Rosemary, Lemon Juice, Egg White, Luxardo Cherry) - It's a whiskey sour with a rosemary kick. They did this well, shaking in the egg whites to create a creamy foam on top and nice balance of ingredients. The Honeycomb (Tequila, Mezcal, Agave Bitters, Honeycomb) - This was very spirit forward... That means strong. I guess I was expecting a little different look. The drink came out fully clear with a large sphere of ice. The fully chunk of honeycomb gave the drink its sweetness. It was decent but not interesting enough for me to get again. I didn't have any food but my friends did and they did not have any complaints. For darts and pool, you do have to pay for the time and you can check those items out at the bar. Descend 21 is a welcome addition to the Hyatt Regency, who doesn't want more fun lounges?

After lounging by the Terrace Pool at night, we needed to have some dinner so we figured we'd give Descend 21 a try.It's literally downstairs by the Grotto Pool, right underneath Rocks. Their menu is literally same except for some slight differences. The area hosts some Top Golf suites with some dart boards as well. Seems like a nice little place to come hang out with some friends.We sat at the bar and ate there. The bartenders were really nice and served the dranks pretty strong. I had 2 different drinks. First was the Emerald Garden (Hendricks Gin, Basil, Cucumber, Lemon Juice, Prosecco) which was strong but still light. The second one did me in, The Honeycomb (Casa Noble Tequila, Banhez Mezcal, Agave, Bitters, Honeycomb). This hits hard later.For food we just went with small plates and these filled us up:Charcuterie Board (seasonal artisan cheese and cured meats, marcona almonds, marinated olives, crusty bread, pickled vegetables, passion fruit mustard) - a simple board that probably could've used more bread. I could have asked for more but I enjoyed it without it.Poke Stack (hawaiian style poke, smoked sea salt edamame, wasabi puree, goat cheese, house made pico de gallo, tostadas) - very bomb. The poke was so fresh and this wasn't a skinny stack either. It was also topped with tobiko along with the goat cheese and wasabi. The wasabi puree wasn't sinus-opening and had a nice, creamy texture.Sushi Bake (salmon, shaved onion, rice, dynamite sauce, unagi sauce, nori) - surprisingly good! I really enjoyed having to roll it myself in the nori instead of juice scooping it on a plate.I really loved the food here and if I'm staying at the Hyatt this will definitely be my go-to.
