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.

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.

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.

The meal was delicious. The steak done medium rare. One guest loved his grilled shrimp. I was so glad we could all get sweet potato fries. Theresa is coming right along with her training. She has a funny entertaining personality. My husband marveled at the size of the ribs and enjoyed the taste. Things seem to be improving in the dining room. That’s great The chow line food is still iffy. I like the stuffed bell peppers, the brisket, the meat loaf, the meat balls with spaghetti. Many times I don’t have anything to choose from and then I hope I can get tuna/ chicken salad. You never miss with that dish.

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.

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.

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!

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.

Attended memorial service for Carolyn Massello’s mother Monday. Food was excellent. Small sandwiches, chicken salad, tuna salad, cheese, etc. had little touches that made them extra special. Mayonnaise drizzled in patterns on top of the bread, paprika sprinkled over that for color, or tiny sprigs of parsley. Cheese platters also nicely arranged. Well done!

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.

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.

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.

FOR FIRST MEAL IN THE REDONE DINING ROOM BECAUSE OF THE COVID PROBLEMS, THEY SERVED THE MEAL QUICKLY AND ALL WAS FINE. THE DINING ROOM WAS NICELY FILLED WITH DINERS, TALKING AND EACH TABLE ENJOYING SOME EXTENDED COMPANY THAT'S BEEN MISSING FOR MONTHS HERE. I TRIED TO LOG IN ON THE 10 SPOT, BUT THE WEBSITE WOULDN'T RECORD ANY NUMBER. GAYL GANSKOW, APT. 336 BLUE SKIES OF TEXAS WEST, SAN ANTONIO, TX. 78245

Menu items need to have a full list of ingredients for those that have sensitivity to some foods. ie garlic in mashed potatoes not specified, pepper not specified. No follow up for coffee drinkers, have get their attention to get a refill. This goes for regular Sunday service as well.

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 reservation experience was smooth and easy. Food was “warm”, not spicy enough for Mexican food, service was prompt and attentive.
