Recent Ritz Carlton Half Moon Review: "One word could sum this place up, FANTASTIC The only issue I really had was the price to vallet park. It was a lot just to park a car. Other then that, I cannot speak more highly of a place. ALL, and I mean ALL of the employees were fantastic. The vallets, the bellmen, the front desk woman, the servers, the bartenders and the maids were just all fantastic. Oh,  but the guy that played the bagpipes at sunset, well he was not very good. I am hoping that the actual guy was on vacation and this was just his stand-in. The server we had for dinner was named Ferris, this kid was fantasic, one of the best servers I have had. Very friendly, very outgoing and not afraid to hold a conversation. I highly recommend the rotisserie chicken. It is the best I have ever had. They de-bone the chicken breast. The only bone is in the wing portion. Ferris took the time to explain the type of hen that is used for this dish, it is a special hen. Just fantastic. The other person assisting at dinner was Forest (The only reason I remember their names is because of 2 different movies). He was great too, but we did not have much interaction with him. We loved our room. I was going to put the room number we stayed in because it was in a perfect location, but I want to make sure that I get it next time I stay there! They gave us one of the best rooms in the place. Highly recommended place to stay."
