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.

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.

The food on Tuesday was not very good: Onion soup was too spicy; fish was dry and tasteless; eggplant parmesan was not cooked enough. Food was not warm enough. We've had better meals in the past. Service has been very good since dining room seated started. Cynthia especially is excellent.

The experience was outstanding - Samantha & Nicki were our servers - Nicki was sort of training Samantha in handling an order for a bottle of wine and then pouring it for those who were drinking. My food - the salmon - was delicious - all in all - a wonderful evening with 4 old-timers and one new couple as guests. We look forward to another fine evening meal in the dining room.

The wait-staff were attentive and made sure we would enjoy our meal. The food was good, but bland. The coffee was, as usual, very bitter, maybe a little too strong. A milder roast would be better. We're looking forward to it being like it used to be. It was nice to be eating with folks at other tables.

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.

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.

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.

The service is great. My last visit on 11/15/21 Ruby and Yvonne were exceptional n serving our table of six plus getting all of our requests quickly. The food is improving. The pork ribs are devious...so tender plus very meaty. Why can we not get the black tablecloths back on the tables at night on other days than Sunday or holidays. Thank you.

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.

Dining services continue to amaze me. They deal with shortages in staffing as well as supply sources while keeping the standards of service and quality high. I don't usually give 10s on anything, since only God's works to be perfect, but people who work on Christmas Day deserve 10s across the board.

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.

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!

Wonderful brunch. Delicious choices of food. The fried chicken with the pecan waffle is my favorite. Husband had omelet made to his satisfaction. Firneds with us really enjoyed their first brunch--one had fried chicken and waffle. The other had an omelet with cheese, avacado, and tomato. Both were very pleased with their choices. The waldorf salad is a winner. Great sevice by Hayley who anticipated our every need.

Iliyah (Sp.?) did a great job taking our order, getting coffee, and all with friendliness.
She is talented in making residents feel comfortable which makes their time there more enjoyable.

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.

Everything was fine and our daughter who comes once a year from Washington, D.C. loved her steak and shrimp and all the rest of the meal. No desert menu anymore?

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 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.

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.

We felt that the experience was very pleasurable having delicious food and visiting with friends in the Dining Room.

We enjoyed a delicious brunch with friends. Irene did a very good job taking care of any needs.
Problem for us not being able to get Sunday reservations as well as week dinners. It appears some people block days at a time. This week the entire week was blocked on the previous Sunday.

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.

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.

Khoa took good care of us--always calm, efficient, friendly, and a super fellow.
The meal was wonderful with so many choices-all tasty, attractive, and much enjoyed by all there. The staff were upbeat serving the food--so smoothly.
The Lemay Room was a great choice for those of us with canes and walkers because there was space to put them out of the way.
