Thanksgiving Buffet so not the usual experience — but service and atmosphere were great, on top of the varied and delicious food in the buffet. Only small criticism was that the orange juice really did not taste freshly squeezed despite being advertised as such on the menu. But the iced coffee was great, and the live music was a lovely touch

Had 11 am Sunday brunch reservations. Admittedly we did not do our "research" but were told as we entered that brunch was over in a half hour at 11:30am. At over $50 per person, we were shocked they weren't open until at least noon for brunch. We had driven about 40 minutes to get there. Beautiful setting, very attentive waiter and very good food.

Food was good. Larry did a great job. Went there 2 days in a row and I got same food. Cobb salad, was a little disappointed today because it didn’t have all the ingredients separated like yesterday.

I went there for Father's Day. What a beautiful setting and great service! Our server, Titto, could not have been more attentive. The food was delicious. Will definitely return.
