The Daily Grill (//%22http://www.dailygrill.com/%22), I will give it a try.  How many different restaurant concepts have they had in that hotel property now.  I can think of 3 since I moved to town.

Edited to add that I just poked around their web site and from the pictures and the locations of their other restaurants, they are not cookie cutter in design, each location has its own look.  I am hopeful.

I hate to sound like Steve, but I'm not sure I'd pay $17 for chicken pot pie.

The Crowne Plaza lobby has been redecorated in what I like to call "Granny's Bathroom Remodel Mish-Mash."  It's like they took samples from 15  "before" bathrooms throughout south Tulsa...and used every one of them....all at once.  The new tile is so uneven, it's a trip hazard.  (Glossy white tile![:P])  Who was their interior decorator?  Who signed off on the plan?  Ish!

I suppose what in it and the quality of ingredients may make me reconsider.

Maybe for a lobster pot pie.  But then that's a shameful waste of perfectly good lobster IMO.

I have been to the Daily Grill in DC and it was pretty good as I recall. Price wise it was in line with most everything else there... HIGH but was a good experience.
