   I normally like Pomona Valley Mining Co. when they are on the regular menu. But I would not go back for the Thanksgiving buffet. We had a 5:45pm reservation but still had to wait an hour for a table. The food was mostly cold and subpar, especially compared to their regular food. The people were pleasant and the dessert was delicious.

   The thanksgiving buffet does not disappoint!! This is my families 4th year celebrating Thanksgiving at Pomona Valley Mining Co. The food is delicious, seasoned perfectly, wide variety, not just the simple turkey dinner.. prime rib, salmon, bbq ribs, and lots of sides and full salad bar to choose from!!

   I’d been to the PVMC three times prior for Thanksgiving. This time it was not good. Firstly, we waited for nearly an hour despite having a reservation for a party of 3. The people who called parties to their table would call the name out in a very crowded, noisy space in which it was nearly impossible to hear. The situation was made worse by the very unnecessary, loud music coming from the bar. As we waited, we overheard the wait staff remark that they “were out of silverware.” Many table were emptying but new customers were not being seated. The food was marginal at best. Funny dressing, tasteless mac and cheese and mashed potatoes with excessive garlic. Again, way too loud music in the dining area also. Clearly everyone was working their hardest but these issues stem from management errors and oversights. Very overpriced regarding quality of food and service. I was glad to get out of there.

   Attended the Thanksgiving buffet. I was disappointed at the quality of the food. The service could have been better. Maybe they were too busy, but for the price I expected better.

   Food was good but waited over an hour to be seated despite having a reservation. All in all though, good experience, good selection, hardworking staff and great value. I will go back.

   First off, our reservation was accepted for 3:30. We weren't seated until approximately 4:15. I felt the presentation of the food was terrible. There was food on the black napkins that sat under the serving tables. Our waitress was good. Very efficient. Very accommodating. The food was just okay. Didn't seem to be well organized. That was my first time ever visiting there but I probably will not be back again. Also, it seemed to be overbooked. There was lots of people in such a small space
