The cooks, servers, staff, and management were professional, welcoming, and tried with no avail to make a very underwhelming overpriced experience worth the price. With that said, dinner in a ballroom, sparcely decorated, mediocre entertainment left me disappointed that I spent over $600 for me and two members of my family to eat dinner. I should have opted for a restaurant meal as I did last year for half the price.

The food was subpar for any price, let alone for $150 per person. I expected a carving station, not a pre-carved station. The turkey, ham and prime rib were boneless... Reminded more of the turkey served at Dennys year around. I expected a full size turkey and ham to be sitting there being carved especially at this price. I think most people have caught wind of how bad this place is for Thanksgiving given how empty it was.

Room was too large and band was too loud. The food was not hot and tasted like store bought. Very disappointed. We paid $352.00 for 2 people including a service charge and $ 30 to park. At this caliber of hotel, the room should have been set up more intimate and with table rounds and not a combo

This was the second time we have done this experience. For what it is (quality of food *and* service, ambiance) it is overpriced. We will not do it again. It is not worth it.

$130 per adult, expected a little higher quality offerings like shrimp cocktail, for example. Overall, the food was pretty good, the ham was dry but ample selection basically. Disappointed that valet parking was so expensive.

Thanksgiving day buffet feast. Things were overall fine, but it was too cold in the banquet area, and for that reason, the food was also cold. The food couldn’t stay warm with the air being so cold.

Spent $800 for my family of four. Unbelievable waste of money. Only took 45 minutes to get mimosas to our table. But hey, we were in a conference room so that’s good right?
