"I took my family for Mother's Day. Great selection of food, but at $99/person my expectations were pretty high. For the price, I expected them to at least offer my wife a mimosa, a flower, something extra. We ordered two bloody marys which were nothing special and the waiter rung them up as doubles. The wait staff were attentive and friendly while you were seated, but were extremely impatient with people who were walking to and from the buffet. A man with a cane had to hug the wall to prevent being knocked down the stairs. Even when I had a full plate of food they refused to step aside and nearly knocked my plate into my chest pressing their way past me. I would consider for $49 per person, but at $99 it was nothing special."

"My wife and I celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary. From the moment we walked in, while they called us by name, we were hooked. They greeted us by congratulating us and treated us like royalty. Brandon was an excellent server, and extremely knowledgeable. This was the best service we have ever had. We will definitely be back!"

"We attended the Easter Brunch at the Ritz Carlton Buckhead. It was by far the most amazing brunch we have ever had. All the foods were gloriously presented and were of excellent quality. The service was impeccable as is typical of any Ritz hotel. The Easter Bunny was in attendance as was a magician, making for a magical morning. The dessert buffet was so beautiful with a centerpiece of large colored Easter eggs surrounded by sweets of all kinds. Everyone with a camera was photographing the display. We would definitely go back."

"The Ritz-Carlton Cafe lives up to its reputation! Great food. More selections than you can fathom. Great service. They are very attentive to your every need. The only thing that keeps me from going every Sunday is that its expensive. But its worth every penny. Definitely a nice spot for a special occasion. I didn't have a special occasion, so I just went! Been back twice already this year."

"This is the best hotel buffet brunch in Atlanta. The price is pretty steep at $67.00 per person, but it is worth it for special guests and other special occasions. Come hungry and come early to make the most out of the situation. No one tries to hurry you along. Very good venue for a brunch meeting."

"Mixed review of the menu. 3 course tasting menu with wines. Not sure I would re-order. Would prefer to choose my own items. Baby crying throughout the meal. Not sure this is an appropriate restaurant for kids; however, I am not sure how you keep them out. Very disturbing though. Would rate about a 6 out of 10. Miss the Ritz Carlton Dining Room. It was always my favorite place to dine."

"The restaurant was about one fourth full so the service we received was wonderful. We had at least three servers attending to us all evening. A nice menu selection and the food was above average. The chef sent out a small she crab soup sample which was delicious and bewteen courses we were served a mango rosemary beverage. It was to be sipped but way too thick to drink and no spoons were provided to eat. It was an enjoyable evening and will return when in the Buckhead area"

"I enjoyed our experience New Year's Eve, but the food was average, and the wait staff was not of a superior quality, though they were very NICE. They simply did not know how to pace a fine dining meal such as the staff at Highlands Bar and Grill in Birmingham, Alabama. Regarding the food, perhaps it was average because it was a New Years Eve menu? I would have preferred a regular menu, because I think this restaurant truly has the ability to shine much brighter than it did (foodwise) on New Year's Eve. I would certainly recommend this for anyone who wants to have a "special occasion" dinner and know that the ambiance is great. Unfortunately we were placed by the kitchen exit, whis is sad, because we were returning guests to the restaurant."

"A beautiful space, and such attentive service - but a very limited menu lacking in imagination. I had trouble finding something to eat - and I ended up with a Caesar salad, which was ok, but I've had better. Many of the usual standards - Cobb salad, Caesar salad, chicken panini - boring."
