Great ambiance. Nice breakfast.Service is great . Everything is great. I wish they had grits and the eggs could be cooked better. The pancakes look like it was taken out of the frozen food section in the grocery store. The pancake syrup needs an upgrade; perhaps maple syrup.

We are locals and love getting together as a family to enjoy dining out. My family has all kinds of tastes and no one eats the same. The Colonial room provided everything we needed as a family dining out. The service was excellent , the food delicious, the music a wonderful touch. Thank you !!!

I would love to give Araceli more than a 10 as she was wonderful. Overall it was a great experience, and the salmon cakes were very scrumptious. It had been a long while since I had splurged with food like what was served and I have not one regret about it. Thank you for the amazing time!

Food was good, room was beautiful, and server was great but wish the dress code could be enforced. We were there for a special brunch only to have half the customers wearing sweats and even pj's and slippers! Takes some of the "special" out of the experience when the dress code is appropriate for Walmart not a $50 brunch!

Overall the Sunday Brunch at a $10 savings was worth the experience but noticable changes. Selection of menu items scaled down but adequate. The desserts also were fewer choices. The service was good but final charge was double-billed on my credit card which made me wonder if someone had attempted to submit the final ticket twice? Second charge finally cleared 5 days after showing up on my card statement.
Will return but not as often as in the past. The $price$ is still a little higher than one can afford more than once every couple of months or on a holiday/birthday/anniversary. Ambiance still very nice.

Food was good, but limited, no eggs Benedict. Waffles were cold. Dining room was very loud. Hard to visit with table guests.
