    The buffet looked beautiful but the food wasn't nearly as good as I would have expected.

    We eat here each summer, before the shows. This year's buffet was the best yet--dual themed catered by two excellent Georgetown eateries. The Mediterranean foods were an excellent array, all beautifully served. And the southern foods were lovely. The grits were yummy, even without the shrimp sauce. And those shrimp were huge. The dessert bar was much nicer than other years--probably why that was the only buffet spot where there was a line--and they ran out of pecan pies.

    All the food was well prepared with the exception of the Sliders which were under cooked. That is the exception rather than the rule

    The experience was disappointing. I had eaten at Ovations a few years ago and my experience was very good. The setting is very nice but I could not recommend it because of the quality of the food. The waiter we had was very attentive and professional.

    Great way to beat the crowd parking at Wolf Trap, and a good meal too.

    Not worth $32 per person for hummus, sliders, fried potatoes and fried chicken. Convenient, and fast and good for rainy weather, but otherwise go to whole foods and get a picnic and bring your own.
