Had a large group there for dinner and the dance party. Drinks, food and especially the service (thanks Matt) was amazing! Had a really fun night and loved it being so close to home.

Kitchen botched my entire order. Ordered omelet with everything in it and a fruit bowl. Got an “omelet” with some diced tomatoes and nothing more (no cheese, meat or anything else), and a cup with and apple cut up in it. Sent it back and didn’t order anything else as it took so long just to get that. Consistently disappointed with this place. So much promise, but always fails to deliver.

I believe my server’s name was David.. David was amazing! I made reservations for 11am for the outdoor balcony area. When I arrived, I was told that the cushions in the balcony area were just cleaned and were still wet. I was disappointed that we had to be seated in the restaurant area but it was ok. David immediately apologized for the inconvenience and offered a free appetizer which I thought was nice. After about ten minutes David saw that the cushions were being placed in a manner that it appeared they were going to be ready to seat people there. David jumped on that and quickly moved us to the balcony area… As you can tell by now… The rest of our service was great! Food…. Fantastic Ambiance…. Fantastic I should have tipped David more than 22%…. Next time ….. There will be plenty of next times!!!!

We went to The Lot for the streaming party of the opening ceremonies for the Olympic games. We had an absolute blast. Fun decor, photo op posters, raffle, and meet and greet with over a dozen former Olympians. We were shocked that there was no cover charge and all we needed was a reservation. We will definitely be back here for similar events.

paid $80 a person for the Mother’s Day brunch. The Mother’s Day brunch I have attended, this was the most overpriced and underwhelming. The food was terrible. The service was terrible. The selection was terrible. Never again.

Generally, I’m not a fan of eating out on Hallmark holidays, everything is overpriced and underwhelming. That said, it was Mother’s Day so we figured that the Lot is a decent place so the food should be decent. It wasn’t. The meat was dry, the sides were lackluster and the service was slow. The staff was polite and respectful, but super slow. All in all, we paid $80+ per person for low level Casino buffet food without much variety.

Very disappointing. They charge $80.00 per person for the Mothers Day Buffet Brunch that does not include drinks. The food was just basic, greasy bacon, sausage links scrambled eggs, pancakes, danishes. Mini bagels that were cold, no way to toast them. Fruit bowl They did do made to order omelets which my daughter in law said was good. NO breakfast potatoes, biscuits, toast. There was a carving station with tri-tip and some kind of Turkey and chicken strips. No sauces for anything. The broiled cod was pretty good with the mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables. But the rolls were cold and hard. Cupcakes and cheesecake weren’t bad. The service was horrible, we asked for water, dude never brought it so I had to go and get it. He didn’t clear plates, he came to the table 3 times. We also had to constantly wait for food to be replenished. We were a party of 7 so they automatically added a 20% gratuity. So the tip alone was $105.00 save your money next Mothers Day if you can’t find a spot come her a meal at home!!

This was the worst Mother’s Day brunch I have ever had. The selection of food for 80 dollars a person was horrible. The food was horrible. Nothing had any flavor. The mini bagels were stale and came from a bag. I have had better food from the free breakfast buffet at a hotel. It was a waste of money and we will not be back. Very disappointed in the whole experience.
