This is our 4th time here this year, I have to say it's excellent. First of all 17 bucks for all you can eat is an incredible value. 1st, they have an omelet station and Mike will absolutely make you one of the best omelets you've had. 2nd, the Eggs Benedict is awesome, the hashbrowns, bacon, sausage it just doesn't end. 3rd, the soups are all outstanding, and to top it off the service is second to none. I know that the place is known for their great weddings, events etc but the breakfast buffet is one you also have to try. I'm 100% once you've tried this place for Sunday brunch you will never go back to any of those other diners like IHOP, Dennys, or those whole in the wall places.

Nice spacious location with plenty of parking. Building itself is a bit dated but banquet rooms are very large and can hold large groups. Service was great, staff were friendly and the food was tasty. The staff definitely make sure your experience is great.

Just had my wedding there 2 weeks ago. Absolutely first class, service was top notch, staff supported us every step of the way, food was great ( our guests raved, especially the prime rib) and the price was very reasonable. Great experience, great memories, well done!!!!!

We booked this because we have a large family and wanted a private dining space, nobody has a house large enough to accommodate all 26 people. Several family members have food allergies, so we thought a buffet brunch would be best, a little something of lunch and or breakfast.

I want to begin with the the positive and then follow with the challenges.
- The staff were all very attentive, and kept up with the dishes and coffee refills. I do believe that 1 of the owners was actually helping take beverage orders and bus the plates that were used.

Each of the tables had a glass pitcher of what was thought to be orange juice, however we concluded it was at best, "TANG" or something similar. It was not fresh or cold. It was a powder mix for sure.

- The omelet bar was fair. The omelet maker was great. Friendly, attentive and kept up well with the demand and the supply. Ample and fresh selection of omelet fixings. The omelets were by far the best food option there.

Next to the omelet bar was a 2 compartment pan. 1 side had waffles, the other side (of same buffet pan) had Pea soup. Not the best presentation for either. Kids thought it was "GRINCH Green Syrup" and put some of their waffles, as did an adult who also had mistaken the soup for some kind of waffle topping.

In addition to the omelet bar, the other breakfast items were basic. Scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, shoestring potato hash browns, eggs benedict, French toast and Waffles. Did not see any pancakes or allergen alternatives such as oatmeal. Did not see bagels or toast offered either.

There were few lunch options. The Pea soup, 2 types of pasta 1 with white sauce and 1 with red sauce. There was a pan of chicken legs / wings that some pieces were not thoroughly cooked. There was not a salad bar or any pans of pre made salads.

The dessert bar had quite a few pre packaged options on display. The pumpkin pie did not look appetizing, and this was consistent with the other offerings.

While the private room was pretty big for our family, it was clean and tables were festively decorated and set. The staff again were really attentive.

Unfortunately, the food was not worth price. I asked if they offered a small salad as a courtesy to those that have gluten allergies, and was told " we have a lot of gluten free options on the buffet, like the sausage." needless to say, sausage is naturally gluten free as are most proteins, however for $30 per adult for buffet and private room, It seemed ridiculous for owner/ manager not to offer a salad. There was minimal allergen friendly options provided.

The space was nice and it was lovely to be able to get together as family and share a meal together. It was terribly expensive for the product offered. The buffet was disappointing.

I would suggest having a salad bar option with fresh and neatly displayed ingredients like the omelet bar. I would also suggest a bakery table offering toasters with bread, bagels, english muffins and other pastry items.

Updating my review years later--
STILL fantastic Sunday brunch--we've done it many many times and always the buffet is exceptional. They have a scrambled egg casserole that is especially good, plus an omelette station that makes "to order" goodies. Sausage, bacon, hash browns, yummy desserts, fresh fruit and more. Glad we found this place and will continue going back. We've also gone here twice for Thanksgiving Day brunch and would definitely recommend. Prime rib, ham, turkey, and all the fixings & desserts. Salads, shrimp cocktail, salmon, and more.

Went for brunch and the food, and service was outstanding! A lot of choices for breakfast and lunch.The price was reasonable too. Absolutely nothing bad to say about this place.
