    Sunday Brunch Buffet is well worth the price of $44. The food was good, as was the selection. Definitely will return.

    The food, as usual, was very good. My only complaint was that the eggs Benedict were overcooked. The yolks were solid. I guess that should be expected when they are in warming trays. We come every year, at Christmas and this was the first time the Bennies were hard.

    Small group of friends enjoyed our annual holiday dinner prior to a Longwood Gardens visit. The location was well decorated, carried an upscale feel, and had plenty of parking. The service was great. We were sat promptly and our table was well set - with water, clean table settings, etc. We also ordered a tableside bananas foster, which was well done and tasty. The food was great - from our appetizers (calamari and stuffed mushrooms - both were very good and some of the best calamari I've had), to our entrees, to desserts. Food was well prepared, delivered well cooked and with great speed, and everyone seemed to enjoy their meals. Drinks were also tasty with a few different options. Overall, it was a great spot with great, delicious meals. I would recommend.

    Had one of our better experiences dining at one of the tables in the bar. The room was packed and the live music excellent. Despite the crowd we had excellent service from Jessica M. The appetizers arrived hot and were very good as were the entrees. Very nice start to the evening there.

    Very disappointed in our recent dining experience at the Mendenhall. Our waitress Suzanne was not very attentive . We had to request a second roll that was distributed , by tossing them on plates. Vegetable was offered to my husband but, was never brought to the table. Suzanne never checked in with us to make sure our meal was to our liking ,or if we needed anything else. Our meals were good as ,the always. Service definitely needs to be improved.

    Mendenhall Inn was wonderful. The host wished my husband happy birthday when we arrived - as did our waiter who was wonderful. The food was excellent - both the short ribs and roasted duck were prepared perfectly. We were very surprised by the complimentary lava cake and ice cream with a candle for my husband's birthday. A wonderful experience overall!

    Everything was top-notch, outstanding, terrific with one teeny-tiny minor thing... my maple citris salmon had no hint of maple. It was very good, though. The table preparation of the bananas foster and the Irish coffee was remarkably entertaining. A wonderful dining experience!! It's on our list to return.
