We had seen the menu online before coming here and expected the salad and dessert buffet to be $188. Turns out, because it was a public holiday(?), they were serving a special brunch buffet menu for $388. Ok, fair enough, guess it was our fault and we should have double checked. However, we wanted to see if the $188 buffet was still available. Doesn’t hurt to ask right?Everything went downhill from there.The server/manager?

Everything went downhill from there.
The server/manager? (he was the only male staff in a suit who walked around with an unmistakable sense of self importance) came to our table thinking we wanted to order but instead we asked about the other buffet menu. He replied condescendingly that the only buffet menu is the one in our hands. Uh, thanks for talking down to us? It’s amazing how a cheap suit can make an unrefined man so arrogant. Nothing against his uniform, but hey, manners maketh man.
Ok fine, having a random stranger give us major attitude is not the best way to start a birthday brunch with my girlfriends but since we were here already might as well stay. The buffet comes with a main, so we decided to order 1 main each for the 5 of us. These “upscale” restaurants usually have small portions anyway.
Unfortunately, it was again the cocky manager who came to our table when we wanted to order. When he found out we were ordering 5 mains, he said something along the lines of - “wow, that’s a lot of food. You ladies must be very hungry”. With the same condescension as before, of course. Excuse me? That comment was wrong for many reasons. Besides, last I checked the main was INCLUDED, what’s wrong with getting the full amount of food we’re paying for? We later figured that he probably didn’t want to waste food, thinking we wouldn’t be able to finish everything. No wonder he said he’d give us only 2 of the 5 mains first. Under other circumstances I may have attributed that to thoughtful service but with all the snarky comments this guy was making I don’t think he was being so kind.
To be fair, apart from that one guy, everyone else who worked there seemed really nice. The food is ok, not bad, but the service was truly disappointing and simply unacceptable.
Needless to say, we won’t be back.
