As a guest of the hotel on NYE, for the price I paid I was VERY disappointed in the quality of the food. It felt like an overhyped cafeteria, who tried to elevate the experience but fell far short for what they charged. The pastry was the highlight and I don't love most desserts. Far below this caliber of hotel, especially one attached to the Ritz Carlton.

Pretty poor experience for such a pricey NYE menu. Limited drink menu, innatentive service had to get up and "steal" cutlery from an out table after asking 4 times. Very disappointing way to end our year

This was an expensive New Year’s Eve buffet with mediocre food (it is a buffet after all so expectations were not high) but the most disappointing part candidly was the dining environment. There are 2 rooms for dining and we were seated in the back room which has awful Holiday Inn vibes. I stared at a bright broken light for the majority of my meal and the waitress said she understood but couldn’t do anything…there was plenty of additional seating. I understand NYE dining comes at a premium, but this was laughable. Every other restaurant on this property is amazing and even the free Bonvoy member breakfast looks like a Michelin star environment by comparison. We ended up ordering pizza from Domino’s after dropping $400 for dinner on 2 adults and a child.

Very disappointing compared to previous years. Drinks were a la carte, not even half the offerings on other years, yet the price went up !

The Thanksgiving feast has lost its luster. What once was an amazing value and experience has become an overpriced meal. The price went way up and the complementary wine/champagne went away- now there are fewer food stations and alcohol is extra. The quality of the food was great and the service was excellent but the value at the high price of the Thanksgiving meal dipped very low.

Unfortunately this was not what we expected. Food was subpar, there was a much smaller selection and the price was nearly double. Very disappointing.

This is our 2nd visit for Thanksgiving dinner. Everything was amazing again. Only this time there was a very large party that came in and was very loud until they settled in but after that it wasn't bad. Our server Rochelle was just as amazing as she was the first time we came. I'm thinking we may try the Christmas dinner this year!
