    The food was very disappointing and overpriced, we booked the last reservation unaware they were closing within 15 mins - so felt rushed despite a number of tables still being served

    Manager was extremely rude when we were leaving after a $500 dinner. I was looking around the other side of the restaurant just to see how it was situated and she rudely told me it’s a private party and the hosted will help you. I explained I was just looking around she said again it’s private! Just surprised at the rudeness and tone. Will not be back. Big turn off. Too many other good restaurants.

    We visited this restaurant for the Mother's Day brunch. Our server was named David McDonough. I'm not sure if that's spelled correctly. We had an issue and management went above and beyond to address our concerns. We will definitely be back! The food was well prepared and everything was extremely tasty. There is a bar downstairs and the bartender that was working was super outgoing and friendly. We may consider renting all or part of the bar for a future event. They recommend a particular parking area so you might want to call in advance to get details on that.

    First off let me start off by saying. I’ve been to this restaurant before when you could order off of the regular menu. So I decided this would be a great place to go for Mother’s Day. We made our reservations and was unaware that we had to get the Mother’s Day buffet instead of being able to order off of the regular menu. For the price of the food they did not keep it stocked and the salmon that was supposed to be on the buffet never made it while we were there. Also the fried chicken was not good. Not sure who came up with the idea to smoke the chicken before frying it but the smoked taste took over. We were really disappointed with the food. We could have went to Ruth Chris for the price we paid and actually enjoyed our food. All and all food was distasteful but our waitress was good.

    Fifth year we celebrated Mothers Day at 404 and definitely our last as it has progressively went down every year. This year- - No carving station - Empty food trays - Warm salad - Desserts thrown together- small cookies than large cookies all of a sudden??? For $75+, one would expect a much better presentation, food selection (fried chicken & scrambled eggs), and quality of food (warm salad & cold quiche). Extremely disappointed and unfortunately lost tradition.

    Not a good experience. A pricey brunch ($58/person, not including drinks) fell well short of expectations. Asked to be sat inside upon arrival due to hot weather on the patio and we had a small child and was told they could not accommodate as they were fully booked. However, the table next to us outside asked the same hostess to be re-seated inside and they accommodated. There were many open tables inside throughout our brunch as well. Drinks were $16 each with a $4 liquor tax and additional sales tax on top, which was absurd (around $22 per drink for the cheap glass of rosé and a basic cocktail). Food was ok but nothing special. Many of the tables were so wobbly they easily tipped with any pressure on them. Had heard good things about this place but was very disappointed. Wish we hadn’t spent our Mother’s Day this way and could go many other places for a much better experience at half the price.

    Mother’s Day. The food was terrible and they weren’t keeping the Buffett stations clean. There was food on the floor under the buffet and all over the buffet area, especially in the area where they had the sweets. The would replace the other food but wouldn’t clean The area of food crumbs and debri. The staff was not replenishing the sweets either. I had to ask a server if there were any more cinnamon rolls because the ones that were out were hard as a brick. They brought out new ones but they were not cooked and doughy. They had paper togo coffee cups with lids, no mugs. And the pasta salad was not sitting on ice to keep it cool. The fried chicken was under cooked. Overall the food was terrible. Expected more for almost $70 per person. Just stick to the burger and Bourban at 404. They don’t know how to do brunch.

    Very disappointed with our Mother's Day Brunch and will not be coming back. The buffet had very few options for breakfast. They ran out of coffee and prior to running out was self serve in plastic cups. My son and I's soft drinks were both flat. The food was terrible. It all tasted it like had been sitting out for hours. Between my 2 children and my wife, none of us found a single thing we liked. Our experience was rushed, from sit down to paying the bill it was less than 30 minutes. At one point when my wife had taken our son to the restroom, I was chatting with our daughter still at the table. Before I could even say "they're not finished" a waiter came and grabbed my wife / son's plates which still had quite a bit of food on them. That would have been a bigger issue, but since the food was so bad neither of them was upset to see it had left the table when they returned. It felt like they were running an assembly line trying to get as many people in and out as possible. The whole experience was bad enough, but the fact it was $250(!) for the level of food / service we received is unbelievable. I've had continental breakfasts at 2 star hotels better than this. This was without a doubt the worst experience for that amount of money we have ever encountered.

    The waitress was very nice but the food was very subpar and extremely overpriced for how mediocre it was. The food took and hour and a half to come out and the soft drinks were flat. There had to be some sort of electrical issue because the lights kept flickering and and it was very odd. The restaurant was also very full and it seemed they wouldn’t turn the AC on even though it was extremely stuffy and hot in there and it didn’t make things any better that you had to ask for ice and they served you warm water. Once we got our checks we left as fast as we could because after sitting in there for 2 1/2 hours we were all practically sweating. We all also found it very generic that such a nice restaurant would charge cc fees seeing that it was so upscale. The overwhelming take away was that everything was overpriced and we couldn’t quite figure out why.

    This place wasn’t good at all. Only good thing about this place is the downstairs whiskey bar. Great bartenders and drinks. The margarita is outstanding. The restaurant needs major help. Cheap decorations, dirty area rugs, plastic chandeliers. There’s a rented tent on the patio with cheap, faux greenery that just looks sad. The cod and the halibut dishes were the worst fish dishes I’ve ever had at a restaurant. The pork loin was the only good thing about our visit. The wine was a small pour and the pork belly was extremely dry. 1/10 will never be back

    It ruined the mood to see the bill after dinner to include a separate and new line item titled CC Fee - passing to consumers the cost for credit card processing on top of the meal, taxes and tip feels like getting nickel and dimed. Ruined the experience.

    Really great food and my wife, who has celiac disease, was over the moon with the number of gluten free selections. The whole fried chicken was terrific and the smoked flavor made the dish a winner. Plus it was my wife's birthday and our server treated us very well. Would recommend this restaurant without hesitation.

    Dined there for Easter brunch and was disappointed. The options weren’t that great and the food alignment at the buffet line was odd. Usually you’d expect to see breakfast options leading to maybe more lunch options then to deserts, etc. well, it was a mixed up on Easter here. Salads and deserts were on the same table, with the exception of the bread pudding that was placed right behind the scrambled eggs. - odd. The experience would have been ok if the cost was not $50+ per person. But for $50, the options were just ok. Also, I’m a Diet Coke guy and I hate when establishments serve cans vs. glasses that can be refilled - and then charge you by the can! I’d expect a warning of hey, “there are no refills and we charge by the can” ((I was already prepared to pay when I saw them being the can initially but still - share that info prior to the announcement coming via the bill!!). To be fair, I believe the first refill is free and I had like 3 - they were also small cans! 😀 overall, this place isn’t bad, it just didn’t meet my Easter brunch Buffett expectations. Definitely would not return for brunch but maybe lunch or HH. Service was slow but still good.

    Great Easter brunch buffet. Would highly recommend as the offerings were great. Nice variety: Salmon with dill sauce, fried chicken, rabbit, lamb chops, quiche, scrambled eggs, lots of salads, too. Desserts were excellent, mostly homemade varieties of lemon bars, chocolate chip cookies, banana pudding, etc. we enjoyed it all and will be back. Service was perfect!
