"Outstanding Easter Sunday brunch! Very family friendly--Easter bunny in costume for the youngsters, and free family photo portraits. Food was outstanding in quality, quantity, and selection. Would definitely go again. Very expensive, but worth it for a special occasion. 20% discount to AARP members."

"Had a wonderful Easter brunch with our large family group at Westfield's Palm Court. The brunch is the most amazing in Northern Virginia and offers something for everyone! It includes waffle and omelet stations, carving stations with all types of meats, huge shrimp, many different types of salads, breads, fish, chicken, beef, vegetables, cheeses, fruit and so much more. The dessert selection is tremendous. The room is exquisitely beautiful and the service is very attentive. The champagne and Mimosas flow freely. It's a bit pricey, but if you're looking for a special occasion or holiday experience, I highly recommend the Palm Court."

"My wife and I really enjoyed our dining experience at the Palm Court at Westfields. We went for their Valentine's Day special. We were greeted with live piano music and a friendly staff. All the dishes were very well presented and tasted great! What I liked most, was that I did not feel rushed and just took my time enjoying the music and food at my own pace. Since the Palm Court is in the Westfields Marriott we were able to have a cocktail in the lounge before we went to diner. Overall, a very delightful evening."

"We have been celebrating Mother's Day at the Westfields Marriott for over 10 years. The event is always breath taking and the ambience is awesome. Food is very delicious and very well presented. The attendees go an beyond to accommodate the needsof diners. Once recommended apple cider in place of champagne, (we had small kids at the time); this time it was actually served if one wanted it instead o champagne (our small kids are now young adults--need I mention which they preferred)!
Looking forward to 2014 brunch on Mother's Day at the Westfiels Marriott Palm Court Restaurant!"

"and something for everyone! The plates were loaded and eventually, after sampling desserts, we all left groaning and saying "nap-time!" The staff is very nice and gracious - kept the water, orange juice, and champagne flowing (for the adults). It is pricy, but works very well when you have a large group for brunch where gift bags and bouquets are not a problem."

"The food was plentiful, but not particularly outstanding. Pretty basic fare. The hot food choices were just warm and long lines (Easter brunch) resulted in cold food by the time we returned to the table. Staff did an excellent job providing champagne, coffee, tea, clearing plates, throughout the meal. Overall, however, we felt we would have rather spent the same money on a better meal in another restaurant."

"We had not been to the brunch for several years and made a reservation to celebrate my birthday. I wasn't aware that the brunch had been discontinued for some time due to the economy and, probably, several other factors. When we arrived the dining room was almost empty. There were three or four tables with people at them and there was more staff than patrons.
The buffet brunch was excellent. Less variety in the smoked fish range, more varied salads and breads. Allin all, it was as we remembered, but more expensive. This is definitely a special occasion or holiday venue. I wassurprised at how few people were there, but it was Super Bowl Sunday, so that might explain it!

"I was taking a friend out for her birthday, and made a reservation for lunch, mostly because brunch is so expensive. When we got there we were seated and the waiter asked us if we wanted Mimosa's. I let him know that we were there for lunch. He poured Mimosas, and we chatted for a while. The waiter suggested that we go to the brunch bar. I let him know again that we were there for lunch. He told me we had to do brunch. After I asked again, and told him my reservation specifically said lunch, he said lunch was not an option. We stayed and had a nice brunch, at greater expense. I enjoyed it less because I felt I had been manipulated or that the reservation site was inaccurate."
