While the food was good, the portion size was small. I was actually very surprised at the piece of cod that was part of my dinner.

We had a 9:00 AM reservation for the Sunday brunch buffet which is the earliest available. We booked it early so we could get in and out before check-out at 11:00 without rushing. When we arrived, they were just finishing setting up so all the food was fresh. We had our choice of seating so we sat inside at a window table overlooking the ocean. It was lovely. The choices were amazing and we could easily have gone up multiple times but time and limited stomach space held us in check. The coffee was incredible, and I'm fussy on this point. If it were later in the day, I would have partaken of the carving stations and hot entre selections. As it was, I concentrated on the omelet station and crepe station, then went back to sample the dessert table. Wish I had room for the Belgian waffles. Even though the price is $50 per adult, it's worth it if you love brunch buffets and want to spend a leisurely time of it. Just the visual presentations of all these lovely choices is priceless. I highly recommend it and wouldn't hesitate returning.

Beautiful spot . Food was ok - we were disappointed, Ie - Cod was over done & tough , although the risotto was excellent. Salads , apps were fine , but for the prices , Again was disappointing. Waiters were attentive, but when they bring you a “ bartenders mistake “ to drink , should not charge you for it as they did .

The host and our server were most accommodating, especially the waiter, Teddy. The food at Water's Edge is always good, but it seemed even better this time than last. I had salmon and the tomato and mozzarella salad. We enjoyed sitting by the window for the spectacular view of Long Island Sound. The guitarist was excellent. It was a little difficult to carry on a conversation at times due to an older party of 4 speaking rather loudly who sat down after us but overall it was a very enjoyable evening and a good value for timeshare owners. We look forward to coming back again soon with other guests.

Sat right at time of reservation; no waiting. Portion sizes were large and everything was delicious. Star of the show was Tedey/Teddy (*sp) our waiter. Amazing personality, very knowledgable and was receptive to special requests. Waiter of the year!

We have been to Waters Edge for brunch many times over the years. The location is excellent and the ambiance was wonderful. We ate outside and the weather was outstanding. The one negative that lowered my rating from 5 to 4 (and it has always been a 5) was the lack of service after we were shown to our table. After getting coffee, the server never came back to offer refills or check on us. Never asked if we wanted anything else to drink. Had to flag him down to get our check. Disappointing.
