   Excellent food and service. Gerardo was our server and he was excellent. Strongly recommend this iconic venue for a night out.

   I paid for ambiance and food, what we got was the overflow seating with a couple of paper decorations no music not even piped in and the bare minimum of food! For the price I paid we will not be coming back! Not to mention the egg hunt for the kids was pushed back a half hour, doesn’t seem that long unless you’re a 3 year old!😫

   I prepaid and had reservations for 1pm. Stood in line for 37 minutes until someone checked us in. Plates were wet, the food was cold, and buffet tables were mostly empty and messy. My 5 year old wanted waffles, and we were told that the waffle machines were "broken." Staff seemed overwhelmed. Twenty minutes later, we saw other patrons with waffles. To top it off, I took my daughter to the restroom, and the toilet was missing the seat. I was very disappointed, especially for the price.

   Sunday Champagne brunch, $100 per person. Quality of food was similar to Golden Corral or worse. Crab legs with no butter, no way to break them. Deserts similar to pastries from Walmart. Champagne in bottles with twist off caps, poor quality. Certain items not available for hours. This used to be a high class brunch, has gone down hill with cheaper ingredients…though prices have gone up.

   Very crowded table was not ready with our reservation that they would have charged me for if we had cancelled or not arrived. Once seated were promptly greeted by lovely waitstaff. One room featured part of the brunch while the other room has the remainder. There was no overview of where the foods were located. Food was abundant and some of it was rather tasteless. Some of the desserts were good. There was confusion at the time of payment where our waitstaff thought we had prepaid but we hadn’t. I probably will not return.

   Unfortunately this brunch experience was not a very good one. I am not sure if Mission Inn had an off day or if their quality has gone down. Either way, we are not likely to return anytime soon.

   The flow of the buffet makes it difficult for people to move around. The line to get an omelet and/or waffle was very long and positioned in a way that made it hard for people to get around. I'm not certain if the event was understaffed, but they can benefit from offering fewer reservations. The servers were great at keeping drinks refilled. The food choices were struggling to stay full and the items in the chafing dishes didn't stay very warm. I love the location and ambiance, but I didn't walk away feeling that I got my money's worth.

    The service and ambience were excellent. The food was just ok and definitely not worth the price. I’ve had much better experiences simply eating at the restaurant for brunch but not the buffet. I would do that again but I will probably never eat at the buffet again. The last time I had the buffet was in 2009 and I remember it being much more fully stocked with more options for the same price.
