    Our server Mahlet(?) was AMAZING and made my birthday very special! The breakfast buffet was top notch and everything was delish! My favorite was the pancakes - I see you pancake man! ❤️ The entire staff (minus the tall older lady at the hostess stand) was phenomenal! I can't wait to return hopefully we'll receive a friendlier greeting next time. :)

    Love the place and bring back memories of when it used to be great. Steak was perfect and a really great value for what we paid. Their was a table with three kids that were allowed to run around the restaurant for the better part of an hour that was really distracting an took away from any feeling of being in a fine dinning establishment.

    My two sisters and I dined there on a Tuesday night at 8:00 PM. It was quiet, candles on the table, just the perfect atmosphere that we wanted. If you want to step back in time and enjoy a wonderful evening with family and/or friends, this is definitely the place to go!

    Disappointed in the buffet. Not what it used to be. No bagels for Lox no toast no omelettes no crab legs. Coffee was excellent

    The dinner was excellent and we were treated wonderfully by entire staff. The salmon was tastefully prepared and delicious fresh cooked sides made the meal complete. My favorite was the chocolate peanut butter pie dessert, absolutely perfect and so artistically presented. Great music in background, superior decor and ambiance, a meal to remember Thank you Omni Netherland!!! Superior!!

    While I appreciated the manager coming to us & explaining the kitchen situation it is sad to see the state of a once beautiful hotel & brunch spot. The food is ok but the atmosphere & service is lacking.

    This was the first time after the new Orchids was established. I was very positive surprised. The menu is more Americanized but very well done. Quality was superb.
