   I took my mom and daughter to the Mother's Day Buffet and it was extremely disappointing. The buffet was visually unappetizing; it was not replenished or refreshed, and there were several nearly empty trays and bowls left out for us to scrape from. The food that was available looked dried out or mushy. When I asked if they could replenish the buffet table, the staff said they were sorry, agreed it ddi not look great, but no. The quality and taste of the food was not good. The buffet set me back $190, the food and experience was awful.

   We had the Mother’s Day brunch. The food was decent. The buffet table was very messy and they had enough staff to keep it wiped up. Some of the staff was a bit aloof and not very attentive or presentable. Some of the staff was very friendly. The crab legs, the desserts, and the cocktails were delicious. Paid $160 for two people buffet lunch including tip.

   We were told after we sat down that it was a buffet only for $60 a person. It was not advertised anywhere on their website.

   A very pleasant experience, excellent service, quiet music, comfortable seating, and wonderful food. We will definitely be back for brunch, but we also love it for dinner!

   This was our first visit to this restaurant since it became The Grill. We had very much enjoyed the restaurant under its previous ownership and weren't sure what to expect with the new one. We were pleasantly surprised. At first we were taken aback at how the limited the menu was, but what we found was that the dishes we selected were very well prepared and delicious. I had the Prawn Alfredo which came with three huge tiger prawns cooked to perfection, and papardelle in a creamy alfredo sauce. The pasta was al dente, just the way I like it. My husband had the Sea Bass which was also perfectly prepared and served on a bed of mashed potatoes. My husband wanted to see if the potatoes could be substituted for the risoto, but there would have been an upcharge for that substitution, so he stuck with the potatoes. The dessert menu was even more limited with only macarons served with ice cream or creme brulee as the two options. We went for the macarons but were told they were out of ice cream and would substitute in a scoop of raspberry sorbet. That was ok with us. The macarons were huge and were very good. There were three of them; we ate two and brought the third one home to enjoy later. The service was excellent; our waiter was very attentive without hovering. We opted for an early seating and were glad we did because the restaurant was relatively quiet which we preferred. Overall, it was a very good dining experience.

   Nice dinner, food was good, I thought the Ribeye was on the thin side for the price paid but the flavor was good.
