   Our most recent visit to the Eleven brunch was disappointing. We first experienced the brunch Dec 2023. Back then it was amazing. Every dish was carefully curated and it did not feel like a buffet, or mass produced. The service was always fantastic and the meal would finish with a rotating plate of delectable desserts. We frequented this brunch every 2 months and enjoyed the changing menu. We were thrilled that this brunch was becoming more popular, but maybe it was a victim of its own success? Over the last 6 months, we have noticed a decline in quality. At first we thought that it was maybe an off day, but the last 3 visits have been very disappointing. They were slammed over the Valentines weekend so we gave them a pass. The food would take a long time to be refilled and empty pans would greet us when we lifted the covers. Our water glasses were never refilled unless we flagged down one of the wait staff. Our last visit on April 6, 2025 was the most disappointing. The food was subpar at best. The rosemary and parmesan scones were dry and hard. We took one bite and didn’t finish. The wheat berry and chickpea salad was bland and in great need of seasoning. The harvest salad and tropical fruit medley only had kiwi, pineapple, strawberries and blueberries. The roasted asparagus was overly smoky. The kimchee hash browns had good flavor, but unfortunately steamed and soggy from being covered. The crusts on the french toast were so hard, we could only eat the inner portion. The pork loin and miso salmon were both cooked to death and bone dry. AWFUL. The pasta e Fagioli was so salty it was almost inedible. The roasted strip loin was on the rare side, but preferable to being hammered. After less than an hour, the waiter asked us if we were done and we had to ask about dessert. He almost rolled his eyes before bringing them to us. Those were good. It was unpleasant and we probably won’t return as the quality and care is no longer there. It is sad to see such a decline.

   We went for the Sunday brunch and all the food was really tasty and interesting. We went pretty early so it wasn't crowded so the service for drinks and other things we needed was very fast. I liked the prime rib and the Kim chee hash browns the most.

   This is the second time I went. It was very good last time but this time, service was ok but quality of food wasn’t very good this time. And curving table was disappointing because they cut meat already and dried out. They should slice upon request.

   Open Table said there were limited seats and none at the bar - the bar was totally empty. I asked for the bar, if it were available and we were taken to a table. The tables were nice enough, just not the experience we were looking for. The server took the menu away after we ordered our first drinks and we had to ask for it back to select the wine. The food was tasty and well prepared. We had to ask for the roast beef as it was not obvious in the buffet (and, again, no menu). The same with desert - we had to ask.

   This was our first experience at 11. Upon arriving there was no hostess outside so we had entered. We were thank told to wait outside until the hostess checks us in. We go back and and wait for the hostess to arrive. Finally we were seated at the bar. Our drink orders were taken, nothing fancy, cold brew and iced tea with lemon. I quickly walked the buffet line. They're truly is about seven items to choose from. I was disappointed and misled based on the photos that I've been viewing online. The food was cold even though they were on warmers. The Portuguese sausage was raw and it was leaking a white slime. Also the prime rib had these white lines coming out from it as the Carver was cutting a piece. It was some type of white liquid. It did not look healthy. I've never seen that before in my life. I can go on and on about the horrible selection of food but I am not. Save yourself to $35 and go to IHOP. I do not recommend this buffet. Whether you're a local or a tourist save yourself the time and money. There are many other places to go.

   Was interesting and the food was different some off the staff was excellent others ok. Stop at the courtesy desk and ask for directions and they may have some freebies for you.

   Good value for the price, small but quality selection of food. The restaurant itself is smaller and the tables are more for bar patrons. There’s only 1 bathroom for both men and women. Coffee and tea are included with buffet price. Service was excellent always came around refilling our water and coffee, taking away our dishes.

    There’s a decent selection but not massive. It’s just enough. The servers were very attentive and courteous. They offered free mimosas for our anniversary but we aren’t drinkers so we kindly declined. Great overall experience.
