The food was fantastic, I will be going again. A couple of my top favorites was the stuffing and mashed potatoes, the flavors reminded me of the times I spent TG at my grandmothers. The way the buffet was set up including the carving station resulted in little time to fill your plate. The Staff was very gracious and there was someone always checking the table and asking if you needed anything with a quick turnaround when you did need something. I would recommend the RB Inn for anyone who wants to take a break from the long hours in the kitchen on TG Day. It is every bit worth the cost.

This was our 4th Thanksgiving spent at the RB Inn Buffet and overall it was a fantastic experience. The only drawback compared to years past is that the ballroom was much more crowded and the noise levels were very high (making it almost impossible to have a conversation during our meal). In the past (pre-Covid) the buffet tables were setup in the main ballroom (so we did not have to walk as far to get food), and the dining tables were more spread out making for a much quieter and more peaceful experience. The food and service were outstanding!!!

Sadly the food at Rancho Bernardo Inn’s Mother’s Day brunch was NOT good. At the 1pm seating time, they were not only out of several items on the buffet line, but they also couldn’t seem to manage the large amount of people in the ballroom - one of our party members sat utensil-less for 15 minutes (prompting us to have to go find our own forks)…and the food quality itself was just poor (crab claws still frozen through, bone dry chicken that had been sitting in chafing dishes WAY too long)…and service staff all but absent. Sadly it was quite a let-down. :(

For the money ($135PP) it was pretty disappointing. Felt very bland, basically a bunch of tables inside a banquet hall with very poor presentation… Nothing special at all considering the venue (RBI). It’s a beautiful property but this was a very overpriced substandard brunch.

This was perhaps the 10th time we enjoyed a special occasion buffet at the Aragon ballroom. It is always a class act with great service, food and atmosphere.

It was not a bad experience for Mother's Day Brunch, mostly because of the beauty of the hotel grounds we toured after our meal. The setting is quite lovely. But the buffet food was nothing to write home about, especially for the high price. Beware, there was a 20% Service Charge on top of the standard price per person. And then they expect a tip? For any family that comes close to or even exceeds a car payment for so-so fare that left a lot to be desired. We'll try something else next Mother's Day. Enjoy at your own risk. $$$$
