Breakfast with Santa was a wonderful experience. Delicious buffet, excellent service. My only complaint is that juice and coffee were not part of the buffet package. I understand, alcoholic beverages being extra, but basic juice and coffee should be included.

I hate to say it, but after all these years of trying to book this event, we just didn’t enjoy it. Such a let down from the moment we walked in the door… As suggested when booking, we arrived early to see Santa. Online recommended 10min window for Santa. Upon checking in, about 30min early, the manager at the door told me “you’re too early, we said to only come in ten minutes ahead of your reservation.” No hello, no offering to have a cocktail at the bar, no merry Christmas, no nothing… just “you’re too early”. We proceeded to go see Santa, which we were unaware was outside in a heated tent… the line was massive, and from start to finish, that took twenty seven minutes… good thing I was “too early”. Although there was a massive buffet menu, the buffet line was only one sided, and it took a LIFETIME to get through… resulting in every bite of food being ice cold. I’d recommend relocating the buffet, having it portioned by staff, or adding a second line to expedite the time spent in line. Sadly, out of the four of us, the favorite buffet item was the chicken tenders… how disappointing at the price point for a Breakfast with Santa… The dessert table was also…. A bit disappointing for a holiday buffet. Only 1/4 of us even bothered with dessert. The cocktail list was impressive and totally festive. The dining room was also extremely chilly, as the door to go see Santa stood open the entire time we were there… which didn’t help the already cold food from the buffet. We have done brunch with Santa at many locations, some of which being Lamb’s farm and The Grand Geneva, both of which more affordable than Lindy’s, and both of which, certainly more enjoyable. We won’t be back, and we won’t recommend. The decor was beautiful and our server was kind, but didn’t invest too much into our experience. My assumption is that was because gratuity was already included (which I TOTALLY support).

I think the nachos on the happy hour menu are new and not very good. Also weird that they didn’t have salsa for the nachos. Not sure if they are meant to be but the nachos (meat and all) were cold!

Lindys was a wonderful experience as always. The food was delicious and fresh. The service we received by hailey was amazing, she was so attentive and friendly. The view from the dining room was beautiful and it was so cozy with the fireplace going. We had a great time and will be back for our next celebration.
