   I thought it was expensive for what is was. Not omelette or waffle station and the food wasn't particularly hot. The fresh fruit selection was amazing though and drinks were included.

   Food was terrible! We were a party of 8, only 1 person enjoyed their food and that was our 8 year old who only ate a plate of fruit. Seriously none of the food was edible. I spent $195 on breakfast food that nobody could eat. This included an 18% gratuity for a boy who took 20 minutes to come see what we wanted to drink (they were NOT busy when we were there). Never saw him again till I tried waiving him down for our check. Complete disappointment and the most expensive meal for the whole trip, again that none of us cook eat but the fruit eater. Please don't waste your money and go somewhere your family can enjoy the food they're paying a crap load for.

    Went for a New Year’s Eve pre fix dinner which they charged 85 dollars a plate and the food was ok. It was a buffet so the waiters did minimal work but yet immediately added a 18% gratuity which was overly generous considering we got 1 round of drinks. I would definitely steer clear of this in the future even though we love camelback lodge. The only benefit was convenience . Also the food choices were heavy on fish which were good but not a lot for the standard eater. Prime rib was weak at best.

    New Years Eve dinner. Most all of the food was barely warm. Especially the pastas. Chocolate covered strawberries were on point! Good selection of dessert! Just wish the food was hot.

    The Thanksgiving buffet ($60 adult $22 child) was a disappointing dining experience. The plates were dirty/not cleaned well, food was room temperature, small selection of food & overpriced.

    $250 for a group of four. This was a buffet that constantly ran out of food. Bread - ran out, steak - ran out, fruit - ran out, apple pie - ran out. Chicken that didn’t run out was too hard to chew. Terrible experience. Go somewhere else there are plenty places around.

    Food was salty. They did not replenish the food. I assume because I ate last seating. I felt it was overpriced for a buffet. Especially that an 18% tip was added for a buffet.

    Attended 2022 Thanksgiving Buffet for $60 per adult + drinks and 18% mandatory gratuity. Quality and selection of food items have drastically dropped over the years for this annual buffet. Turkey appeared to be processed breast meat and was not fresh cut off the bone. Stuffing was just croutons. There was no roast beef or ham carving station as in previous years. There were soup bowls but no soup to be found. Desserts appeared to be highly processed, discount grocery store bought variety that were not fresh. Table service was attentive and adequate but mandatory 18% gratuity doesn’t seem fair for a buffet. Food and beverage manager did comp 50% of meal due to our complaints regarding the food quality so at least they are responsive to reasonable customers.

    Ever get screwed over while knowing fully that you are getting screwed over? The Hemispheres restaurant at Camelback came up with this little marketing gem. --- Mother's Day Brunch Buffet -- Reservations required .. log in and reserve your table at OpenTable and now you're guaranteed a table, which they claimed would be in high demand. The regular buffet price is $24... but today it's $65 and they set the gratuity price. 95% of the tables were empty. Clearly there was no need for a reservation. This restaurant is normally packed for their brunches. All those empty tables told me that those folks have more common sense than myself. The food is good, the service is excellent .. but not worth $65 a plate. I expected some extras to go with those exorbitant prices .. maybe some form of entertainment, a strolling guitar player or something like that. But, no. The only "extra" was a free carnation to every female that entered the restaurant. Other than the flower, this buffet is the same as their pre-covid buffet. I won't say that I won't return under their normal pricing structure, but I will certainly not trust any of their special event buffets again. Caveat emptor (buyer beware). I made the reservation .. and I paid the price. Take this as a warning and be smarter than me.

    food was just ok, very limited options, everything looked to be reheated in microwave. Service was ok considering it was christmas eve. The price was way to high significantly overpriced for the overall quality. My family and I were very disappointed. when you pay $300 for dinner for 4 you expect good service, food and quality and this was not the case.

    Food is great! We had our Thanksgiving dinner and the breakfast and both days, delicious. Plenty of scrumptious choices. There were more desserts last time we were there. Love this buffet much better than at Great Wolf. One negative for us, not reflection on the restaurant, my kids 9 and 4 are picky eaters and they didn't eat much at all and we paid for them of course, but that was a bummer. Also gratuity was added to the bill 18%, I guess good for them. Wait staff is great and attentive. We had reservation for 7 pm seating and we had to be in line for 10 min to be seated. But breakfast was a breeze.

    The staff, including the chef, were not knowledgeable in regards to food allergies. It took 30 min for the waitress to get the manager who eventually got the chef. We were told everything was safe for both allergic children and they could eat anything safely. We are egg, peanut and tree nut free. I then asked about items I knew would have egg, such as Mac and cheese, and he then said “oh yea you can’t have those.” Had I not clarified, the consequences could have been dire. When we were seated we asked for a high chair (when the reservation was made we stated we needed one) and didn’t get a high chair for 30 Minutes, same for drinks. We were given the wrong drinks, not a big deal but when our drinks were given to another table, and I informed her the drinks were switched she just picked them up and switched them from the other table, without getting new ones. In COVID times, this really isn’t safe. My own child had put a straw in the cup on my table that she then took away and gave to the other table. We were really disappointed. We knew it was a holiday and that it would be congested and busy. We anticipated that, but the delay in receiving a high chair and drinks, mixed with the staff not clearly identifying safe food items or lacking knowledge about it was a let down and worrisome. I hope no other family trusted “everything is safe” and risked their safety.

    Thanksgiving dinner- worst meal I have ever had in my entire life. The sides were cold and undercooked, and the ham was dry and over cooked. You are charged gratuity, even tho he only brought drinks. We were in and out in 13 minutes for $175…
