This was our second time having the famous Sunday Brunch in the Grand Hall-Grand Hotel. As before, it was wonderful. The food selections were so varied and abundant: from raw oysters to prime rib and lump crab egg scramble to fine desserts. Fine French Champagne was flowing. Everything we ate was delicious. My only regret was that I could not sample all of it. Our server, Veronica, was charming and lots of fun. We appreciated the lovely general manager who came to greet us at our table. The setting is gorgeous. The room is open and lovely and the view of Mobile Bay is beautiful. We will be back again.

Music was so loud we couldn’t carry on a conversation. Food on bar had been sitting awhile and was unappealing- some of the dishes had congealed. Grits and eggs Benedict were cold. Most of the dessert items were already gone. We felt like homeless people let in to eat what was left. No one was very friendly. And we mentioned it was our Anniversary . At $56 per person, it will be quite a while before we return.

Hello Tonya, We’re truly sorry your experience fell short—especially on your anniversary. That’s not the standard we aim for, and we deeply regret the disappointment. We will definitely keep your feedback in mind and work hard to do better. Warm regards, Susan M

Difficult to judge food quality from a buffet. Never my favorite. The egg scramble with vegetables and crab was delicious. The omelet was a bit dry. Raw oysters were good, sauce was mediocre. Royal red shrimp were very good. Bottomless mimosas that did not spare the champagne were excellent. View from the round room at the back was superb as always.

Dear Carol, Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with us. We're thrilled you enjoyed highlights like the egg scramble with crab, the royal red shrimp, and of course, the bottomless mimosas — always a guest favorite! We also appreciate your honest feedback about the omelet and oyster sauce. We're continuously working to refine our buffet offerings, and insights like yours really help us do that. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back soon, and we’ll do our best to make your next visit even more memorable. Warm regards, Susan M

What a wonderful Sunday Brunch! It was cold outside but warm and cozy at the Grand Brunch. The Jazz Band played Happy Birthday to my husband. Everyone was singing. The food was incredible and the wait staff was incredible. We will ask for Veronica next time we go there. The hotel is amazing and the art all over is worth looking over and reading the history. We had an incredible amazing time and can't wait to go back again.

Adult family party of 4 for Sunday Brunch. This was our second visit to The Grand Hotel for Sunday Brunch. Our first visit was outstanding in every respect. This visit however was disappointing. 1) Service. Our server was not attentive to our needs, passing our table several times without offering to refill coffee or mimosas. I had to actually get up from my seat once to go ask him for coffee refills. 2) Food. Similar to our previous visit with the addition of crab legs. The crab legs were tasteless and overcooked. They would fall apart when opening the shells to remove the meat. I suppose one should not complain about crab legs but honesty is the best policy. The other dishes and appetizers were good to excellent but too many to evaluate separately. 3) Ambience. The Jazz group and solo guitarist saved the day. The music and vocals were quite enjoyable and added a festive touch to the beautiful holiday decor. Without the music, we would have given an overall rating of 3 stars or less.
