Bricks Family Restaurant

This breakfast is one of the best hotel breakfasts I've ever had. Selection changes slightly day to say but there is plenty to choose from, and even fountain drinks!

Check in being outside is weird but doable. But we saw loads of people sneaking in from the inside and finding their own seat. No one was watching the exit for that.

Make sure to reserve ahead of time.

Dinner was much better than expected!! We only did one night, and even at the discounted price was $80 for two adults and two kids! While we enjoyed the food, we elected to get other dinner our other nights for much cheaper.

Almost no service, just being seated and then plates cleared.

One of the employees got after a family for standing in the walk-in line, even though there was indeed a clearly labeled walk-in line and then doubled down after folks explained this. That was uncomfortable for everyone around and was unprofessional.

Multiple types of hot food is lukewarm at best. That's probably the biggest critique I have.

Food was delicious and we were so impressed with Ed and all he did to take care of someone in our party with dietary needs. He went above and beyond and we appreciated it so much.

Truly terrible food quality. I expected more for over $30 per person. Also, I tipped 20% thinking there would be service and there was none. You get all your own food and drinks like buffet style.

We were disappointed in this place... You find out that there is a family buffet inside the Legoland Hotel, and you think of something delicious and quality, and all that was very far from reality... Yes there is good variety, but the quality of the food It is perceived very poor. It is not cheap at all, and on top of that the food is of poor quality.

The only thing we liked were the desserts. We will definitely not return to this place, and if you have the opportunity to come, miss it

Wait staff have a really poor and unwelcoming attitude. They'd obviously rather be elsewhere and it's disappointing their management don't pull them into line.

Food range is decent but unfortunately for us we had an anaphylactic allergy incident despite discussing allergies with the restaurant. The restaurant were really accommodating though and thoroughly discussed our concerns and did everything they feasibly could to help reduce risk so I put down our allergy incident to a case of bad luck. The good thing was they responded with care and immediately informed management and their on site park medic. The medic came to check on us as we had also taken immediate action to administer anti histamines.

What was disappointing is that the restaurant did not offer to compensate the cost of the meal for my son who couldnt eat there. Management also said they would check in on us the following day but they didn't. Fortunately all was ok and my son recovered without incident.

We were staying at a hotel down the road but chose to eat dinner here after spending the day at Legoland. I thought it would be a fun themed dinner to send us off. But instead it was super disappointing.

We paid about $115 for four of us. We walked in and it was so crowded. Tables are right next to each other, it’s loud, literally felt like a cafeteria. The kids food was pretty on par, all of the things my kids typically eat.. pizza, tater tots, Mac n cheese, etc. both my kids placed pizza onto their plate and then it slipped right off onto the floor (twice!). Then we saw another kid do the same thing. So maybe pizza with a denser crust instead of the paper thin cardboard would be better.

For the regular buffet, there was quite a selection of different types of foods. Some of it I was actually really excited for and it was just meh and not super flavorful. Then some things were just flat out gross. Dessert didn’t make up for much. The only thing I really enjoyed was the Caesar salad.

It’s a self serve buffet so staff service is pretty minimal. But at one point they ran out of forks. I asked someone for more, she yells into the back room “FORKS!” Then someone else comes out with forks. And EVER SO SLOWLY begins placing the forks into the cups by pairs of 2. So there is now a line building up behind her as she is restocking the forks 2 by 2. Eventually I had to be rude and squeeze in front of her before my food got cold.

One of the machines was out of ice.
The plates are cheap plastic.
Tables are small, we were constantly on the verge of accidentally knocking something off the table. It was just a let down for over $100 and there are so many other places we missed out on that would have been better.

Recommended dishes: Salad Bar

The food wasn't great for 200 dollars we expected a little more. The tri tips was very dry and hard to eat, Mexican food was extremely unpleasant salad bar was nice I did enjoy it,bread/rolls were stale the butter balls were cute but wasn't able to enjoy them . In my opinion it's over priced for what you are getting. I seen a lot of tables that weren't cleaned properly and tons of staff lots of plates piled high with staff just standing around talking in the corner. My kids didn't really eat normally they come with an appetite glad I brought snacks for them since they were still hungry.

The service was virtually nonexistent. While a buffet-style restaurant necessarily requires a diner to expect less attention than in its full-service peers, this experience went beyond (actually beneath) the norm. We are older citizens who took our grandson to California Legoland for this fifth birthday. To make the event extra-special, we spent a substantial sum on a premium birthday package that included dinner at this restaurant. The meal was to be capped by a birthday cake. We finished our dinner and waited for the table to be cleared. When it became obvious that no one was going to remove our used cutlery, I bussed it myself to the serving station. I expected that once the table was free of used everything, someone would arrive with the cake. Wrong. After ten minutes had passed, I sought out a restaurant employee and asked when the cake would arrive. She assured me it was on the way. Right. Three servers appeared with a cake, sang a little happy birthday song, and disappeared. This left us with one (1) birthday cake, zero (0) plates, zero (0) forks, zero (0) cake knives, and zero (0) anyone in sight to eliminate the prior zeroes. I thereupon rose, trotted (creaked) over to the buffet area, gathered up the necessary zeroware, and returned to the table Stay. I'm not through. The cake that had been brought to us was large enough to feed all of the people who hadn't served us. As a result, we had about three-quarters of a cake remaining after we'd sated ourselves. We decided to take the substantial remnant back to our room against the remote possibility that our grandson might need more sugar during the night. I looked around for someone who might help us package the most-of-the-cake for travel. No such person appeared. There aren't enough characters remaining in my allocation to provide further details, but it won't require much imagination for a reader to fill in the ___ (blank).

Thank you for the lady who sat us to our table and who went to get the chef in order to go over my food allergy with me. Sorry didn't get her name! Then thank you to to Juan the chef for taking me through the food line to show me what was safe for me to eat and also had a gluten free bagel toasted for me and a new untampered cup of cream cheese out of a new container for me. Thank you so much for the experience and the delicious meal for us to start our day!

Pricey during dinner, especially for the quality of food. Food was average at best and variety of selections for things like salad/taco toppings or sauces was minimal. At the time we went (6:45 reservation) the soda machine was also down and juices were extremely watered down. A bummer really. Complimentary morning breakfast is as you'd expect for a decent hotel - plain toast/bagels, cereal, fruit, typical meats, waffles, etc. So I would say it's ok for breakfast, especially considering it's included. Otherwise not worth it. We went to the Dragon's Den the next day and had a great, great experience. Night and day difference really. Food was tasty and table service was excellent. Better atmosphere as well.

Don't eat here unless you like fake food. It's everything that is wrong with our healthcare system. God knows what is actually in the eggs. Those were not eggs that I tasted. Yuck.

Good quality buffet food. Allergy friendly. Maybe it's because we had several great experiences at the Dragons Den restaurant in the neighboring motel before trying Bricks for dinner on our last night, but overall it wasn't our favorite environment. It felt a lot like a cafeteria, and was significantly louder than the other spaces around LEGOLAND for some reason. There was also no real flow to the food lines and it was chaotic even though the restaurant was no where near full. All the drinks were room temperature canned soda in piles on the counter. There is also no play area at Bricks. We really appreciated the play area at Dragon's Den.

The Bricks restaurant is really cute for Legoland. The food is typical buffet food with a good variety. The most frustrating part is no one clears plates. Even a station for us to drop used dishes would be fine.

We went to Bricks every morning for breakfast during our 3 day stay at Legoland. This was great because we saw friends we met the day before and also had tons of foods the kids would eat and adults.
