   The eggs were not done all the way (both in the buffet and the omelette). The carving station the meet was grey so it was overdone and lacked flavor. For $80 a person you would think the food would have been amazing and this was one of the most disappointing brunches in the area I have been to.

   Gluten free meals and bread were offered which was a real plus. We all enjoyed. The chef made an excellent salmon dish.

   Following the Algauer's Thanksgiving experience now the Riverfront Grill. Thanksgiving buffet offered large selections including oysters and shrimp on ice. Salad bar and desert bars were great. Carving station was delicious. Increaed price was expensive. Service was okay but probably not to my expectations with the price. Champagne included is very nice. I'd still go back.

   We were here for Christmas brunch when it was under Allgauers. The food then was great for the price. Disappointed today as some of the items that were supposed to be hot were cold. Expected to have turkey carved directly only to have it sliced already and in a warmer.

   I reserved for 8 online and under the notes section I requested separate checks if possible. I was delighted to see that the request was remembered and honored. Of the 8 of us, we had 6 different lunch choices and all were outstanding! Our server was personable and the hostess was accomodating. We had a wonderful lunch meeting!

   Really dissapointing. This place used to be great. Service was inattentive at best, neglectful much of the time. We had a reservation. Restaurant was almost empty, but we had to wait for everything -- to be seated, order taken, food to come, boxes, check, pick up the payment. We were not told about a "special menu" until we tried to order off the menus provided when we told that all sides were mashed potatoes and veg. We were not offered the "special menu" (saw a buffet being broken down on the way out). The food was adequate. Edible, but not what I would have expected. The the cheese on the mac and cheese tasted like nacho cheese that should have been on chips. The mashed potatoes were cold (suspect they had been sitting on that buffet). We had to ask for boxes twice, beg for the check and for them to take the payment.

   I’m extremely dissatisfied with this place. It is not a restaurant!!! It is the hotel buffet trying to oversell themselves as fine dining. We spent $400 for 5 people. There was no gluten free options as I was told over the phone. Dishes were not restocked salad bar was neglected. We don’t even spend this much at Fogo de chao! Also since we used our card to book on open table we were told we could not cancel without a charge. We walked the buffet and wanted to leave after realizing we were catfished.

   We very much enjoyed our brunch on Mother"s Day. the food was very good, and our server was excellent! We also really love the table we have had for several years now. It looks out at a lovely fountain on the grounds.

   Ce here for Mother's day brunch. Everything was great from the moment we walked in. Greeted by friendly staff and seated right away. Food was amazing as well. Lots of different options and everything tastes good. Took advantage of the bottomless Mimosas.
