    I made a reservation on Open Table and was confirmed. When I arrived, I was told the restaurant was closed and they no longer honored Open Table reservations. I left.

    We have been going to the Easter Brunch for 30 years! It never disappoints. There are so many choices of foods and the service is excellent. The live music is always a treat. We will continue coming and recommend to others.

    We were a large group of travel staff from the hospital that were not be able to make it home for the Holiday. Gold Bison put on an amazing dinner and allowed us all space to gather and celebrate! The food was amazing- 3 carving stations, a salad table, a wide variety of side dish options, soups and breads AND a dessert table with coffee. We had a great wait staff who helped with orders from the bar. The reservation and check-in process was simple. There was even live music! All in all, we had a great time and are so grateful to everyone at Gold Bison for letting us have a great holiday with friends!

    To be clear, this reservation was for the Thanksgiving buffet only. I don't regularly eat at the Gold Bison Grill so to judge the facility only on the buffet would be unfair. To be blunt, I expected more for the money. I found most of the steam table "accompaniments" too sweet for my taste. I prefer savory over sweet. Texture wise I found them all very much the same much like any cafeteria fare. The proteins were fine but not exceptional as the turkey was actually formed and pressed loaf and the steamship round needed more seasoning as it had little taste. The food was just middle of the road. The menu was ambitious and variety was good. Now for the dining area. I lunched here some time ago in a different season and the atmosphere was pleasant given the number of people and not a buffet. Our seating up off the buffet level was mostly good except for the times when the crowd coming into the facility kept the outer doors open. It was cold outside with a light wind so with the doors hanging open at times there was an unwelcome chill. The entertainment was very good for this function. The service was excellent. I would most likely not do this again at this price.

    Thank you for the review, Charles. We use every review as a learning tool to get better at what we do. We will pass this along to our team to make sure if there is anything we can do to make this event better, we know about it. We hope to see you again in the future whether it's for another buffet or just to dine with us. Again, we appreciate your feedback and look forward to sharing this with the team.

    We always enjoy coming to Gold Bison for holidays. This would have been 5 stars, but we were seated in a room far away from the Potter singers. They are always a highlight of our Gold Bison experience and missed hearing them this year. Staff was friendly and accommodating as always.
