The food was good but the read wine was absolutely the worst I’ve ever tasted. A shame really, with that nice food a good glass of red could make the meal more festive.

Wow. You will not experience a better buffet on Earth. This deserves every bit of flattery we could give it. The buffet area was palatial, overlooking the beautiful Rockies, and every bit of food was high quality and delicious. The best thing we could’ve done on Christmas. Thank you!

Underwhelming. Felt rushed. Having to line up to get a drink and waiting 15-20mins. That was not good. Won’t recommend booking. Go for a la carte restaurant
