   You can get good food a lot of places, superior service on the other hand is a different story. I keep going back because of the service. Thank you Nicco, Steven, Georgina, Ivy, Armstrong, Mohammad. I appreciate you! I'll be back!

   Excellent place to have a Holiday Lunch. Good food, noise level was low so you can have a normal conversation in catching up with good friends.

   Thanksgiving buffet was great. Lots of variety, all well prepared. Only complaint was that the food was not hot, but it is understandable with a buffet. Great service.

   We went for the Thanksgiving buffet. Though some of the dishes were truly delicious…most of the food was room temperature. There weren’t really many classic thanksgiving sides, but the cheese roast potato’s were awesome and the acorn squash soup was to die for. All the meat was room temp and had clearly been out for a while. The bread table…all the bread was hard and not flavorful at all. Another concern as someone who has nut allergies, the ice cream station, the server used one scoop for three different flavours including one with nuts. When I asked if he could get a fresh one to get a flavour without nuts he said no. Our waiter was super sweet but very busy. Definitely not worth the $120 price tag. Wouldn’t go back.

   This review is for the Thanksgiving buffet experience *ONLY*. Ambiance was nice and quiet. Staff was nice, and took dishes away quickly. Food tasted, for the most part good, or great, even. However, virtually every dish you would expect to be hot/warm was cold or just barely above that. Yes, even the stuff at the carving station. What also surprised me was the fact that *every* dish there terribly overdone and very dry. On top of that, the taste? Mediocre, at best. Really wasn't a fan of the salmon, even though I usually love it. The hot chocolate and apple cider? Both lukewarm, unfortunately, with the hot chocolate being more like hot chocolate syrup instead. Man, that stuff was heavy. The roasted brussels sprouts were not, in fact, roasted. Or at least they did not appear to be. More like just lightly cooked and seasoned. The list goes on. At 120 a head, forgive me for expecting my food to be hot and not overdone (or in the case of the brussels sprouts, not cooked enough). I get that we are paying a bit more for the convenience and the staff taking time away from their families during this holiday, but I honestly feel like for what I and my family got, price per head should've been perhaps a bit more than half of what was charged. So, I will say this. If the food had been hot, not over/under cooked, I would have far less to complain about. As stated before, for the most part, the food tasted good/fine. If Miel addresses the aforementioned issues next year, I'm sure there would be very little to complain about.

   I went for their Thanksgiving day buffet. Lovely and bountiful food presentation. Unfortunately the food was cold, and the stuffing and potatoes had no flavor. Dessert table was the best. Wonderful variety. Service was top notch-Nico made my holiday meal extra special. Dining room is spacious and with the large windows overlooking the water, on a sunny day the room is bright and it's a nice view.

   The menu lacked variety and for a Saturday evening at 7 PM there was no atmosphere or energy in the space. Drink menu had nothing to speak of, no variety nothing that caught your attention

   The food was amazing, so much flavor! I had the sea scallops and my husband the Chicken. The menu is small but if everything on it is tasty ; for sure we will keep coming back. The ambiance is unfortunately not special. It needs some «  energy «  and je ne sais quoi !

    the kitchen was clearly not in a competent state. the rolls came out cold and rock hard nearly inedible. the clam chowder would need to be rated worse in Boston. it is sad since i had one of the more memorable dinners at Miel the last time i visited. I can't recommend. richard
