I have been looking for a Sunday brunch buffet and been disappointed several times at other resorts. This was just what I was looking for. Beautiful view. Good food and an easy to navigate buffet. Attentive servers.

The overall experience was pleasant although the restaurant was uncrowded being a Monday. It’s a large place so it might be a different ambiance if it were crowded. The service was very good. Everyone was very satisfied with the food. My appetizer of mussels in a kind of light red broth with peppers was particularly delicious. It was competitively priced.

This was my third dining experience at Luke’s Brasserie, and once again, it was truly out of this world! The cuisine is exceptional, with ingredients combined to create flavors that melt in your mouth. Each dish is an artistic masterpiece, presented so beautifully that it almost seems a shame to eat it. We were fortunate to have Julia as our server. She was a wealth of knowledge about the ingredients and offered thoughtful insights into her personal favorites, along with excellent suggestions for pairing appetizers and entrees. Her recommendations, delivered with professionalism, grace, and genuine expertise, made the experience even more memorable. An extraordinary culinary experience from start to finish. I look forward to returning for special occasions!

    We had a wonderful dinner at Bar Bouchee for our anniversary. Service was excellent, and the food was perfectly proportioned to get an app and a main without feeling overfull (i wasnt sure so i ended up just ordering a main then had room for dessert too). I had the salmon and the crispy skin was delightful, as was the turnup puree and pomegranite seeds with the balsamic glaze. My husband had steak frites, the steak was well seasoned and perfectly cooked. We topped it off with the chocolate mousse for a touch of sweet to complete the meal. Highly recommend for a nice meal!
