We had a nice experience at the restaurant and our server Mackenzie was lovely and most accommodating of a special request. Only reason for 4 versus 5 stars was the limited menu.

The lighting was too fluorescent including the buffet table. The buffet table would look better with decor.

This was at least our 5th Thanksgiving at Cafe Gauguin and we always enjoy it. We met Mr Rosen the first year and we are sad to hear of his recent passing. What an amazing impact he has had on so many people! Our server was great and another server Samuel we remembered from last year and he was such a joy to interact with. The food service is great although having the sushi and steak in side rooms made us challenging to find. I also never saw any bread or rolls. Other than these things…excellent. Outside there were tons of “bow head” groups that made the walk from the parking lot a little chaotic, but they were excited to be there and participate in their competition.
