    Just celebrated Thanksgiving with my family at Summer Place. Wonderful ambience and lake view. I know the set up for Thanksgiving a little different than normal menu since it was a buffet — a perfect traditional turkey, beef and ham and every side you could dream of. Everything delicious. Such terrific service from T. We can’t wait to try Summer Place again.

    We enjoyed our Thanksgiving at Summer Place. We learned this was their first Thanksgiving buffet offering. Jillian was great with her cocktail recommendations. We enjoyed the buffet as well - turkey, carved beef and ham, shrimp, cheeses, salad, and the sides were great, etc. We hope they are planning on doing this again next year.

    The food was poor at best. Obviously way over priced considering the quality. Thanksgiving buffet food was luke warm. It’s a shame because of the potential of the atmosphere and views. I knew the price before I got there and no problem with it. It was the quality and quantity. They are next door to Pier W . There is no comparison.
