   My wife and I were celebrating our Wedding Anniversary and wanted to go somewhere special. The Banyan House has an artificial real looking Banyan Tree inside that creates a nice garden like atmosphere. We sat by the window overlooking the lake. Mayia, our server, was friendly and attentive and helped make the evening for us. The presentation of the food was outstanding and tasted excellent. We will be back.

   Lindsay was great and the food was as good as always. Perfect weather for dinner outside on the patio. Cheesecake was delicious!

   I don’t know if it’s because they were busy but we waited 1/2 hour for our wine, then told that are appetizers choice was out. Since we waited so long we just went ahead and ordered dinner. Meanwhile another server came to us with a nice plate of bread. The server we had was horrible was embarrassingly inept and conversation with him annoying. We have been to the Banyan before and always had a good meal. Not this time. The chicken was dry and the pasta overcooked. I’m not sure if the service was the issue for everything being bad but this time we did not enjoy ourselves

   Easter buffet was cold. Not hot. Shrimp was undercooked. Desert station was not fully stocked. Mandatory 20% gratuity does not seem acceptable on a buffet meal.

   Overall all things need improvement for the money we spent. The restaurant was not equipped to handle this crowd as we all wanted water and were told they didn’t have enough glasses so we got one. They add on $35 gratuity (3 guests) when all our server did was bring three drinks and remove our plates. Some of the food was excellent while some was out of a package(donuts). The floor where the brunch was served was filthy. The bathrooms had no paper towels. I expect that at places like Applebees but our meal didn’t cost what Applebee’s charge so it was overrated for sure. I’m not sure why being above average is so hard to obtain. We won’t go back.
