   Not worth the price. Just another breakfast restaurant attached to a hotel that serves food barely better than factory food. Decent service though.

   We booked under the "Experience " Tab on the App. I'd say they really weren't even ready for us as a booked reservation. We were the only ones in the restaurant at 8:30 and the experience buffet didn't open until 9. When new tables arrived they placed directly beside us even though the restaurant was never completely full. Felt like they were trying to keep 2/3's of the restaurant unused and clean. Food was good, slightly cold, not as much variety as expected for priced experience. Will be awhile before thinking of repeating but better than most breakfasts that we have for options in deep SE suburbia.

   Insanely noisy, service was great but the noise from several tables of people was unpleasant

    The server and kitchen worked with us to cater to specific dietary needs. Tenderloin tartar was excellent, as was the Duck main. Each dish (4 in total) was well prepared, and despite the modification to a couple of the dishes, flavourful.

    Yellow Door’s unique brunch remains one of the best in the City. It is not completely COVID recovered but certainly on its way. A gem and my favourite.

    Had a nice birthday dinner for my boyfriend. The service was professional and the food was delicious. My boyfriend's duck dish was great. The rest of our table had the vegan dumplings and they were delicious but only came with 2 dumplings per plate at a high price. We enjoyed how quiet the restaurant was with nice decor and jazz music.

    For that price there should actually be lobster in the Mac and cheese, not just a tiny tail. But the service was great and the other dishes were delicious, thank you!

    Would not recommend and definitely won't return. Made a reservation for Christmas for 5 of us over a month prior. The only time we could get in was 8pm which was fine. Staff called twice to confirm the reso and to let us know there was a 2 hour max because of Christmas, which I was totally fine with. Upon being sat, was informed by our server that they were shutting down the buffet in 15 minutes. $85 a person and told we only had 15 minutes to get food?!? what kind of service is this?, especially on Christmas. Absolutely ridiculous. Didn't even have time to order a pre-drink or a bottle of wine because we were so rushed to hurry and get food and eat. Desserts were cleaned out and they shut off the chocolate fondue so all it was, was a giant bowl of hard chocolate. The server felt bad and brought us dessert from the regular menu. Spent $613 only to be rushed to get out within an hour as they closed at 9. Wrote an email to the manager and not even a single response back. Don't waste your time or your money on this place.

    What a fantastic experience, from atmosphere to the food, to the weird yet beautiful furniture. It was my mother's first time in almost 35 years of not cooking christmas dinner and my only want was for her to feel like it was worth it, and it absolutely was!! My only request is to offer more non alcoholic drink options, I would have liked to have drank something nice whilst my mother sipped fancy cocktails.

    Attended the Christmas dinner buffet with my mom who is slightly disabled, I got her food for her from the buffet first and then went to serve myself after. The man serving the prime rib gave me a really nasty look when I came back to fill my own plate after I got hers and made a comment about me getting seconds. It was really not nice; I had even mentioned to him the first time that I was filling my mom's plate and would be back. He clearly was not listening when I was there the first time. I would not buy $85.00 Christmas "buffet" tickets again over his look and remark. Our waiter was lovely, and the food was good though.

    Rather unique but delicious with some items not usual to a brunch buffet. Also some international dishes such as fried rice, stollen and a tender wonderful sirloin roast . There was some sort of turkey dish in individual casserole dishes which looked dry and unappealing There was quite a good selection of alcoholic beverages with great wintery names as well as juice and coffee. Charming server kept coffee replenished

    Food is great! I love this place for their buffet breakfast. However coffee that was served to us was cold but immediately gave us a new one when we told our server. We requested to be seated somewhere else but they said the table we wanted was reserved but there was no one came and used the table 😔

    Have eaten here before and found the food and service exceptional. This time around not so much. Food was mediocre at best and service was not to the standard I have grown accustomed to here.

    We had an early reservation as we had plans for the Christmas lights at the zoo later. We went all out with appetizers, cocktails and mains. Our food was served lukewarm, and the manager told us it was because it was plated on cold dishes. I even placed some of my duck on another plate for the server to actually touch it to see how cold it was. They did take my duck back and re-sear however, all of our main dishes at the table were cold and the meal was not enjoyable. On top of it the manager argued me that she had seen the food come straight off the grill onto our plates. I felt that our food should’ve simply immediately been taking back and re-done and served hot on proper hot dishes if that was the case. It was odd the reaction and response from management. I’m usually very hesitant about negative reviews especially now; I understand how difficult it is with staffing and I probably wouldn’t have left this review if we had been treated professionally is what it says by the management.

    Outstanding service and the cocktail as well as prosecco were delish. Great food presentation, but did not live up to the flavors. The food really needs to impove on several levels considering the prices. The chicken dish was good. We would go back and recommend for the cocktails!

    Food was very good but took a very long time to come even though the restaurant was virtually empty at the time. The food also didn't come out at once.

    We took my elderly Mother for brunch expecting a very good meal based on a prior brunch experience. The highlight was to be Eggs Benedict. They ran out of them and it took at least 20-30 minutes to replenish them in the buffet line. Toast ordered shortly after we sat down also took 20-30 minutes. We will never return.

    Food was very lack lustre except the risotto with the pickerel was great. The fish was bland however. Numerous items unavailable. Restaurant was empty. No mocktail list. Great decor. Menu needs reinventing I think. (We ordered 3 appetizers, 3 mains and 2 desserts - sad really).

    There was a baby shower set up in the middle of the restaurant. The food was terrible, they are not set up for brunch. Food was just in pots with no warming. Once the people showed for the shower there wAs not enough food and it was noisey and the other patrons were rude and loud.
