Wonderful brunch with friends. Enjoyed the fried chicken and waffle, plus the Waldorf salad. Ruby took good care of our needs. Thank you to all who had a part in providing a delicious meal. We appreciate each one of you, even those whose faces we do not see as they are in the kitchen.

Mix-up--this is for July 9, 5:15 PM. Very good dinner, excellent service by Genesis who is super. Friends rarely go to dinner, so they thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We all enjoyed the crab cakes wrapped in a piece of catfish. Very clever and delicious. Only thing missing was a piece of pie. We enjoyed the sugar oatmeal cookies instead--very good with coffee.

Table agent restrictions making reservations extremely difficult! Food on Sunday doesn’t stay hot due to longer serving times caused by everyone having to go through line. The lasagna was delicious this Sunday after it was reheated! I know staff training & shortages make it difficult!

All food services staff are so courteous, professional and kind! I am impressed every day. I never hear them complain or make excuses and I admire they way they remember names. I think the staff all do a wonderful job. I think the food is very good - some items not so much but I am overall happy. I understand about the short staffing and yet staff are still courteous!

We loved having neighbors to dine with in the dining room. Cynthia is a superb waitress attending to all our wants. The temperature of the room was a little cool for the two women. All 4 of us ordered the salmon tart. One was disappointed that there was not much salmon in the tart. One hour was sufficient time.

Everything was excellent - the food, the service, etc. the only thing missing was the ambiance of what our big occasion buffets used to be, and we're hoping that will change for the better when more wait staff is hired and we can go back to buffet lines but with elegance, not in the servery line.

I ordered my hamburger last night (Wed) rare and it came back well done. The bun was soggy. I don't know what happened to the onion rings which were formerly the best and most dependably good thing on the menu. However, last night they were dry and tasteless--definitely not the onion rings of the past. I did not send my food back because everyone else was eating, the service had already been slow and I didn't want to hold up the group up for a hamburger. Overall experience and ambiance had to do with the company at our table. My rating was for Wednesday nights dinner. Tuesday night I had the Tender Blue which was excellent and cooked to rare perfection. It has always been a winner.

We were at the late seating but I will have to say food was good and turkey was especially good Took forever for the waiter to take drink orders. I understand we were understaffed but he was ;NOT happy. All in all is was a nice day and we heard a number of compliments. We had our family here so we especially wanted it nice and they felt the good vibes.

There were four of us and we all drank coffee with cream. When we caught the eye of the server for refills, we also asked for creamers. The coffee came, but no creamers. We asked for them again, still no creamers. We asked two different servers (one of whom had asked if we needed anything!), but again, no creamers. We finally gave up. It would be nice if, once the meal was served, the server would periodically check on the diners, would listen to what was said, and then provide what was needed.

At Brunch the line for the sales register was excessively long! The single person at the register was new and needed help with working and learning the various categories of menu items. Please monitor the line and be ready to help a new employee with keeping the line short. After going through the serving line and then having to wait nearly 10 minutes for the register the food is cold! Fortunately I was able to find a server to reheat the meal.

It was a wonderful dinner to celebrate our beginning to return to normal! The Valentine’s Day dinner was outstanding. Our table ordered each of the entrees and we were all very happy with our choices. From the soup to the dessert everything was delicious, even though some substitutes had to be made. All was excellent. Lori DeWitt was a cheerful hostess despite having to work overtime to seat everyone. The wait staff was great. Our waitress, Teresa, had been working since 8 that morning and was getting really tired by 7:30 but she brought us everything we requested and kept on smiling. Our senior staff were everywhere helping new staff, and we even saw line cooks helping in the dining room. We are grateful to have a staff so willing to go out of their way to provide a special meal for us, even when it meant working outside their own sphere. It was a great way to start a new beginning, and from all the happy faces in the dining room we could see that everyone was glad to be able to socialize with friends and neighbors together again. Thank you for all the effort it took to make so many residents happy all at once!

The food overall has improved, but to serve on St Patrick's day Corn Beef without cabbage is not appropriate. The Tenderloin on the Saturday evening meal was excellent as well as the fish meals. It will be nice to increase our wait staff for a more smooth flowing meal. Breakfast needs to be started again. The residents always look forward to a very good breakfast with friends.

I loved being back in the dining room with friends. Our servers were top notch and the food came in a timely manner but I was disappointed in my salmon. I ordered it to be cooked to medium doneness and specified, “not dry”, but it was very dry and stiff. The value of the meal has lessened after reopening since the meal no longer comes with a salad or beverage.

We enjoyed the service wait staff. Some need to check the diners to see if they need refills on beverages. I was disappointed when I couldn’t request a better table location away from the hot windows! We were denied by the hostess she said the other tables weren’t set.

The prime rib tasted excellent, but there was a lot of fat on each slice. We chose to eat at home, but we would have preferred to have some effort to keep the dinner warm.

Other than waiting for coffee, everything was fine. Suggest putting a copy of the Sunday Brunch menu in the monthly Bon Appetit, especially since residents have to go through the line instead of orders being taken from the table service.

Judith and Caitlin did a great job welcoming us and seating us immediately. Having the shrimp and spinach dip appetizer on the table was a nice touch in addition to the lovely white tablecloths and fall decor. Our table server, Ivonne, was prompt and attentive, greeting us like family. We felt honored by having so many servers in the cafeteria line. It was a bit discombobulated picking up a tray by the door, then getting in line by the cashiers counter. Next time, perhaps the trays could be put near the cashiers counter where the line began. It would have been a much nicer experience for families to be waited on at the tables but then, if it was a meal in our own homes, we would have had everyone parade through the kitchen to serve themselves! We were thankful to have such a delicious meal prepared for us. Loved the dessert buffet! We truly appreciate the commitment of all our Dining Facilities Staff for giving their time on a holiday to prepare the tables, cook a traditional Thanksgiving meal, and serve us so graciously.

Trying to book a specific time which is not available requires reentering both the date and party size. Could the software retain the "available" entries and just ask for a (in this case) different time? Better yet, give back a list of available times. I ended up asking for each time slot only to find there was nothing for a table of 4. I did wonder if I could have asked for two 2's or for a bigger table and take pot luck on filling the last two seats.

The evening was a big disappointment for myself and my guests (Table of 7). Reservation time was 5:00 p.m., we checked-in with the staff, so they knew we were ready and waiting to be seated, but we were not seated and had to ask several times when we would be seated. Finally, we were seated at 5:30 p.m. The food order was not taken until 6:30 p.m. We had to ask for bread as some guests had medical need to eat and others were hungry and needed something to eat until the food arrived around 6:50 p.m. Judith had to step in to help with the service.

Excellent job done by Wait Staff. They are short in numbers, but not short in professionalism, enthusiasm, and patience. Things were handled in a different manner which unfortunately was not known to residents. Still the Dining Room personnel were top notch in handling the Brunch meals. Yvonne is an amazing woman who always deals with whatever comes her way with marvelous capability in getting things accomplished and a smile on her face.

Our group was seated at three different tables very comfortably. At my table our waitress, Irene, was very attentive and patient with one of the women at my table who was not very pleasant to Irene since this resident’s salmon was undercooked. Irene handled it beautifully with respect for the resident and maturity to know not to take it personally. Five star service rating for Irene! The rest of us at the table thoroughly enjoyed our meal.

We had roast beef and ribs; both were excellent. Yvonne was our server and was so nice and efficient. Judith let us sit early to have a drink before dinner because both the Social Club and Lemay Room were closed. That was very considerate of her. We had dinner with the Corcoran's - Judith and Yvonne made a very good impression on them along with the food.

This was the first time and I think overall it was very good! As I already expressed to Daniel, there needs to be a wait staff at the cashier to direct the folks to their table so they are not left "hunting" while balancing a tray. The fruit was a little unimaginative. A delay in the bacon was unacceptable.
