Service was fantastic. But everytime I went to the buffet 1/2 Of the items were missing. This shouldn’t have happened knowing how many reservations they had.

The food we were able to get was good but they had a hard time keeping up with a lot of their offerings. After 3 times through the line and the prime rib being out every time we waited in front of it and took about 20 minutes for more to be loaded on the plates and it was gone within 3 people taking servings. I never saw any salmon out either or the chilled flank steak that I was looking forward to. The lamb was delicious and so was the Mac and cheese. Service was Incredible though especially for a holiday!

Overall great experience! Great value for a holiday buffet. Service was great and the selection of food was fantastic! My only caveat was the buffet “line” was not in the best spot, if you were seated on the opposite side you had to cross the check in desk, which was very crowded, especially when carrying food. Also, most of us stood in line and waited our turn to get food but then it was announced that this was a “walk up” and grab what you like which caused chaos in my opinion because those who waited were then cut in front of which was frustrating. All in all, we had a great time, food was delicious and the ambiance was great for Christmas Day with the ice skating right out front!

Christmas buffet was too crowded and the choice of food was not good due to too many people trying to eat same items. Not an experience I expected unfortunately.

Disappointing experience although I should have expected it at a Christmas buffet. Crowded. Noisy. Food was okay when it was there, but they had difficulties keeping good on the buffet. I expected more traditional options than were there. Never again for a holiday.

While this is one of my go-to restaurants when people visit, their Christmas buffet was terrible. They only brought out small portions at a time, which were immediately scooped up by whomever happened to be in that spot in line. It took NINE minutes to get to the start of the hot buffet line, then they were out most everything except sides. I was *really* disappointed*, and also know now not to go here for brunch.

We were seated in room with our family. It was very crowded but the staff was very patient with everyone and waiter was exceptional. This was the best buffet I have ever been to. All the foods have different recipes and you get a unique variety of flavors with each dish. I love coming to this restaurant on a regular but they made our Christmas extra special.
