    Our first time visiting this location, and it was lovely. While we arrived early, we seated immediately. We would definitely choose a table towards the inside of the dining area next time, as where we were seated, basically at the entrance had so much incoming and outgoing traffic. So many choices in the buffet and everything we had was fresh hot and delicious. We will definitely come back for not only the brunch, but their menu looked really nice as well.
