Years ago this was a great place for a good meal and a great price. My recent experience was not good. I feel that something must have been in the food that made me feel full and it was hours before I recovered. It’s a buffet.

The ribeye was huge, flavorful, and tender. The mashed potatoes and steamed veggies that came with it made this meal delicious. The cheesecake was beautifully crafted and worth the trip back. Having my ginger ale in a cold adult glass and not the usual soda cup made this whole experience memorable.

Christmas brunch buffet was terrible. Terribly overpriced. Nothing could ever make me revisit this buffet. They are trapping the tourists that visit for the holidays

The food and ambience was excellent although we had one annoying waitress that ruined our time by picking up our wine glasses stating no more than one was allowed on the table. We wanted to take our time drinking and were staying in the hotel so I didn't understand the purpose of that. I finally had to complain to a manger

I went for the Christmas buffet, I was in my opinion a waste of money. There were no vegetables like green beans literally just corn. For almost $100 the buffet could've been sooo much better

Great food and service , I recommend it highly. For many years we have a tradition to have a Christmas Brunch at this venue and it has never disappointed! This year Crab cakes and sushi were excellent! Hope to do it again next year.

My family and I have been going here for Thanksgiving and Christmas brunch for over 15 years and I must say this was the worst experience that we've ever had there Christmas brunch had no turkey whatsoever no mashed potatoes or gravy or stuffing just pork and a lot of us do not eat pork they did have a few fish and chicken items but everything has changed and when they say Unlimited champagne don't believe that our server said we're only allowed to have seven glasses each and they were very small glasses I might add. I'm very sad to say we will not be going back next year, it was $65 plus tax and gratuity and came to almost $ $90 per person and it was so not worth it! They really did lose great business, and I will no longer recommend any of my friends or family to go there which is sad because it became a great family tradition but now it's just not worth it anymore!

Disappointing buffet on Thanksgiving. They delivered on the quantity but it's clear they went for lower quality ingredients and cuts of meat. Items were never at the right temperature and the meats were overcooked and some pieces inedible. There was bottomless mimosa/champagne included but the server was barely available to refill and I was told I could only have 3 mimosas in total - ridiculous and completely false advertising!The ambiance was poor and the the restaurant was dirty and dingy. I would not recommend this establishment and felt especially insulted at the high price I paid for me and my family.

Came for the holiday buffet. It was ok, not worth the price. Most of the food was room temp, not really hot. The prime rib was the star with turkey an after thought.

The food was about the quality of any 2-3 star hotel bed and breakfast. The servers were nice and attentive. For the price of the buffet I would have expected more. This was on a Sunday morning and they had the usual selections (eggs, pancakes, sausage, bacon, etc) but the taste of the food was poor quality.
We attended their Thanksgiving Buffet. For the price, we could have eaten at a very nice full service restaurant. The turkey was very salty. The side dishes were pretty basic. We ended up sitting in the Everglades restaurant which had slightly better ambiance than Cafe Gauguin, which was very brightly lit and had children running and screaming everywhere. It seemed more like dining in a cafeteria, with cafeteria style food. Next year we'll plan further ahead hopefully giving us more options.

Over priced. Entree selection better at Golden Corral. Stopped serving coffee and tea 30 minutes before meal finished. Waiters inattentive. Bizarre greeting and seating. Over crowded.

Turkey good, roast beef good, shrimp in a pool of melted ice water, desserts excellent, crab cakes very good, stuffing ok, cranberry sauce was terrible, bread selection way too limited. Service was excellent once seated. Seating was disorganized, made to stand with disabled wife while table being cleaned. Price was reasonable except so called discounted valet was too expensive at $15.

Not a good choice for a couple to have a nice quiet thanksgiving meal. ?My fault totally didn't expect the noise level but of course mainly big family groups. Service was very good and food excellent.
