This is the best buy when it comes to breakfast at the hotel. The other breakfasts at the hotel were just as expensive and definitely not as tasty. This place was a bargain, comparatively speaking.
The continental option includes sugary pastries, yogurt, bread, oatmeal and a fruit bar – which includes hard boiled eggs as protein. There are also cereal options.
The harbor option for $6 more includes waffles, French toast, biscuits and gravy, potatoes, bacon, sausage, & scrambled eggs – all well before pre-made and kept warm.
The taste is fine but at the price point I would expect a few more fresh prepared options.
I enjoyed the salmon, food was good… nothing exceptional. 12 for a small pre-made sandwich next door. If you are hungry enough to eat two sandwiches… it’s worth it because everything is overpriced at a hotel.
Service: above average, super attentive and very friendly 😉
First, the forgot to check in my reservation with Open Table, so now I need to request my dining points and deal with it. When we arrived, – an older man highlighted my name in his paper reservation list with a yellow highlighter, while the younger hostess at the computer did not check me in in the system. I think this caused the issue.
Second, quality of food at this buffet brunch was just ok. Some items were actually well prepared, like their turkey and ham, and grilled vegetables. But other items were not good: raviolis were overcooked, roasted beaf was quite tough to chew, shrimp – also very overcooked. And their crab legs – one of the most advertised menu item… they ran out of those half way through their service at around 2pm, and we never got to try them!
And this is the biggest issue for me: we paid $65/pp for the buffet brunch, and I realize t is not that much as these brunches are normally over $100 at fancier places. But not serving what people paid for is not good service! What if I came to this buffet brunch exactly for these crab legs? I did not, but not having something I paid for bothered me! And I think it bothered other guests as well, as I saw two ladies two tables away asked the manager about it as well…
Overall, I can tell that the quality of the food was – mass production buffet food.
I hope this place serves better individually plated food on regular days, but I would NOT recommend it for the Xmas buffet brunch! Definitely not coming back here next year (even if they provide its guests with enough crab legs)!
