Early sitting was very quiet in the Larkin Room. Homemade truffle chips were perfectly crisp. Specials of the day were very attractively presented and downright delicious. Server was attentive without being obnoxious.

Service was great by the water boy. Server was pleasant enough. No offer for hand grated Parmesan on a Parmesan pasta dish, which was also way too oily. Shrimp was a bit too overcooked. Food was overall neutral and not anything any of us would rush back to or give a glowing recommendation to. We asked to stay inside restaurant because of concerns for it being too sunny out on the patio, yet we were seated in a sunny spot on the inside of the restaurant, despite stressing our concern. They did offer to pull a shade down, but the sun was still quite high at 5:30 P.M., so the shades helped but did not block the radiance of the sun.

We had Easter brunch here today and when I say it exceeded my expectations it far exceeded them. This is our first Easter away from family and we typically do higher end buffet Easter brunches and I have to say this was by far the best. The carving station was perfect, the food was hot, the desserts were delicious, the omelet station was in the kitchen so you ordered omelets from your server (great idea). Highly recommend 10/10 no notes. We are a family of 4, two boys ages 4 & 5 and they were very happy with the selection. Great brunch, thank you!

From initial contact at Host stand I was impressed by the excellent service and attention. Seated within 5 minutes very nice table in the upstairs room greeted immediately by a server asked about coffee while we were waiting for family. Sage was our server she was very friendly Efficient and provided a five star experience!! Very smart decision by Management to avoid long waits for omelettes and eggs our order was taken by our server Sage while we filled our plate with so many great brunch items off the buffet. Great experience all around we Will be back next year thank you!!!
