    We enjoyed our lunch very much. We didn’t realize that they were serving brunch only until our server informed us, but there was a nice selection to choose from. Our server was great! She didn’t rush us, but did remind us when it was getting close to the buffet shutting down. She also kept our coffee and tea cups filled.

    People are sleeping on the French toast burger foreal. Sure you can’t finish it in one sitting but then you have the other half for the best breakfast ever.

    The food was delicious. We ordered wings, clams, sliders, and a burger. 0 complaints on the food! The environment wasn't exactly what I expected, but that's my fault. I could've done more research. It was pretty loud and it took us 35 minutes to find parking (That is not an exaggeration) . I really only have 2 huge complaints. 1. Our server was awful. She paid no attention to her tables. Her phone got more attention. But at the end of the day, it's her tips that will suffer...or so we thought. Turns out 20% gratuity is added to the bill. We paid our bill and we decided to use the restroom before our walk back to the car. This is where my second complaint starts. 2. We used the bathroom on the main floor. It was a single person restroom with one sink. The sink didn't work! I was told there were 2 bathrooms downstairs, but never checked those. Luckily I had wipes in my purse. I'm not sure why they had the sign up saying "employees must wash hands before returning to work" because they clearly can't in the main floor bathroom. I was pretty shocked.
