We stayed for the weekend and Sunday Brunch was a truly sublime experience. About 55/person (plus tip), this isn't an everyday event. But we're excited to come back and indulge in the refined atmosphere, personal touch, and elegance at the Grand. Our waitstaff was wonderful (she got a rose from staff to celebrate our anniversary). Couldn't recommend Sunday Brunch enough.

There was no seasoning on there undercooked hash browns and the patty melt smelled and taysted old and moldy. It is very crouded, the only good food was there delicious pancakes with were to die for.

Wanted to have a nice weekend branch with the family at the Garden Café, but the café and La Bonne Vie is currently closed for renovations. But they have moved their buffet-style Sunday Brunch, the buffet-style extended breakfast and dinner services in the Oak Dining Room.So we had the Saturday’s Extended Breakfast Buffet in the Oak room. It’s a beautiful room. There weren’t that many items like the Sunday branch, but we were pretty happy with the options that were available for the price we paid (I personally felt like it’s a good deal).The service was so good! Our server was Annabella and she was very attentive, helpful and friendly. We are planning on going back again for the Sunday branch ;)

A quite place for a lunchtime retreat. The style is in keeping with the energetic art deco of the rest of the Grand America's main floor. Like being surrounded by an exquisite, at times gaudy, treat. The service was spectacular. Between my host and server, I was waited upon professionally, with enthusiasm. I was not left wanting. The food was prepped and seasoned perfectly. Every bite packed with bliss. The portion was ample but not gratuitous. I left feeling reinvigorated from my lunch escape.

When I asked for a gluten free menu the server instead walked me around the buffet pointing out everything that would be gluten free and safe for me to eat. He even pointed out that the sausage wasn't and because they use the same utensils if I wanted bacon he would just bring me some from the kitchen. I loved how informed and aware they are of croscontamination. They also had pretty great gluten free bread!

My friend and I went tp the Garden Cafe for its ranked Hot Chocolate. Not only was the waiter surly, but he tried to inflate the price. Then he was reluctant to validate our parking. I only tipped him out of good manners.

What a lovely dining experience! Dessert was the Strawberry Crostata, which was quite enjoyable!

Very nice place for brunch, a bit expensive but good food. Lunch for 3 was just over $100, good amount food, super nice seating, location is good. Just remember who your server is as they almost forgot our dessert.

The food has amazing quality and the service is superb. Best meal I've had all month.
The brunch here is AMAZING. The service is just wonderful. Our server was very hospitable, he went over the buffet and the menu options (first time visiting) he recommended the sea food and the bread pudding French toast which were both delicious! Beautiful dining experience, The Garden Cafe is now my favorite brunch spot. I highly recommend.

Sunday brunch is the best! Expensive but luxurious. I wished they'd serve alcohol though.

Had breakfast here before heading out on our adventures for the day. The food was prepared well and the service was prompt.

Sad Brunch experience. The GA brunch used to be the best in town. Because of Covid they changed it to a plated breakfast that is served. It is still technically all you can eat but the service was so slow we all got tired of waiting for more food and drink refills. And the food was only fair. The portions were small and nothing was hot. I spent over $600 and wasn’t even offered an apology for the slow service or a thank you for coming. The table next to us literally walked out without paying and the staff did nothing, yet I still paid full price. I sent an email after eating there and got no response. Don’t bother coming here until it returns to a normal buffet and even then I’ll be very hesitant to go again.

Probably one of the best breakfasts at a hotel you will ever have. Everything is so fresh and delicious. The Grand American is just enough food for your morning. My wife ordered the in-house made Lemon Ricotta Pancakes that she couldn't get enough of. Highly recommend for breakfast.

The meatballs and ceasar salad were great.
