    Lovely patio. Nice staff but we were later in the brunch and food wasn’t quite so appealing. Cold on the “hot” trays. Coffee ran out (they brought us some but it took about 15 min), and for $35 per person… I guess I expected more. I’d go back for their regular menu. But not brunch.

    The person in charge of omelet station was not skilled which resulted in a very low quality omelet. There was no bread in a brunch buffet which was quite surprising. No sugar, hot water, and tea at the coffee station. The waiters were trying their best. Our waiter was attentive but obviously they are not up to the task yet. The meals at the buffet were not fresh (e.g. chicken), the Belgian waffle was soggy and soft. There was no monitoring by a higher rank staff (manager or like) on items on the buffet in order to arrange for replenishment of items and looking after the quality of food.

    Sunday Brunch Food wasn’t warm enough and the salmon and chicken were already dry. Pastry selection was mediocre and mostly already dry. Not impressed. We were seated close to the bar and tables were occupied by golfers that were very loud and disrespectful to the other guests.

    I had the Sunday Brunch buffet. I recommend it. Lots of choices, salads, omellette station, the salmon, chicken, and pasta were very good. Coffee is included. For dessert there were many items. My only complaint is that the berry crumble was way way too sugary, it needs a redo. Staff were very nice.

    My husband and I shared the chicken wings (honey garlic) and a red and green salad. The wings were way over-cooked and had little taste; the salad was fine but very pricey. That evening and into the next day, we both felt noxious and figured something was not "right" with the food. Duelling pianos was fabulous...wish we could see them without the awful food.

    I really enjoyed the fact that the Duelling Pianos set was 2 hours in the beginning and half hour in the second part of the show. Makes it a better overall experience. The only thing I would change is the tomato sauce accompanying the zucchini. I would prefer a garlic aioli or even a ranch dressing. Otherwise the food was very good. Loved the turkey and sourdough bread. Will order again. Our server was excellent.

    The first email stated “ Dueling Pianos”, and this was what attracted us to the event. We would not have come just to have dinner. The noise level was way to high for our enjoyment. We suspect over 80 decibels. There were no pianos in the room, just a keyboard and a guitar. Was this the supposed “DUEL” ? Attendees: Peter and Dawn Doyle; Scott and Heather Anderson On previous visits to the Grill, we have enjoyed breakfast or brunch, particularly when we could eat outside on the veranda in warm weather. It is very disappointing that you no longer this type of meal service.

    I find the menu was very suitable especially since I frequent the Marshs' mainly because of the Dueling Piano show and like the variety of food offered. I can have either a larger entre when I arrive early or have some of your delicious side order dishes if i don't want a full meal. Great service by staff.

    'very disappointing that the menu on the website was not what was on offer at the venue. When you are going out for dinner, you do not want to be offered a menu with so few options, virtually all of which your wife cannot eat. fortunately the Dueling Pianos made up for the disaster of food. Next time we will eat before going.

    The food was tasty but portions were small and we miss the larger menu. The penne pasta and the flat breads (was really looking forward to the delicious flat bread with the pears). Our waitress was lovely and nice, had to keep flagging her or the hostess down though for more water or salt and pepper. Dueling pianos was amazing as always. Noise level in general was so loud though.

    The place is beautiful! We went for wing night and had a reservation of 10 people. The waitress was awesome but was the only one working so service was slow. She was very pleasant and did excellent considering it was wing night and she was the only person on ! Our wings however were not great . Very small, no meat and some even not cooked properly! I don’t ever complain as I own my own restaurant but feel you should know, we did tell the server as well. Just thought you should know since we were very excited about sledding in for wing night at your beautiful place but were all disappointed in the wings .

    The singer and the acoustics spoilt the entire evening. She was diabolically bad. Plus the speakers were cranked up so loud as to make conversation even at the periphery of the room impossible. The food and service was good. Forget about the entertainment. Most folks want a pleasant evening conversing with fellow guests not this.
