This was a fantastic brunch with Santa. Everything was top notch and wonderful. Food stations were plentiful and staffed with friendly employees. Santa was perfect and made sure we had the right approach to taking the picture for the little guy. Only area for improvement would be was that it was too warm in the room. Staff and food was excellent. Price point was a good value for what you got in return. Would recommend this brunch to anyone. Much better option than the busier breakfasts or waiting in line at the mall.
