After watching American Hustle, my friends and I came here for lunch. On weekends, they have a brunch buffet that offers appetizers, dessert and drink along with 1 of 6 main courses of your choice ranging from $168 to $288. You could also add $150 for free flow Champange for 2 hours. Environment & Hygiene:With big wide tables and chairs, we sat quite comfortably.

Environment & Hygiene:With big wide tables and chairs, we sat quite comfortably. There was one TV beside the bar wall showing sports, and in front of the bar was the brunch selection. The restaurant had a very relaxing atmosphere to it. Hygiene was okay.
Taste & Value:The brunch buffet was quite pathetic, but what could I expect for the price of it. For the appetizer part, tt had cold cuts, salads, and cheese.
Pasta Salad- The salad was loaded with thousand Island and the pasta was way too hard. It was quite awful to eat.Tomato and Mozzarella Salad- Very watery and tasteless.
Apple Salad- Okay, but again it was loaded with dressing.
Cheese and Cracker- The only thing worth eating item that was kinda dried up from sitting.
Now for the mains, the 4 of us shared 3 of the 6 options.
1. Char-Grilled Prime-Cut Rib Eye Beef's Steak with Red Wine Butter ($198) X 2 ( One Medium, One Medium Well)- I ate the Med- Well one, which tasted okay, but it was not a good cut of meat, since 1/3 of it was not meat. I could barely taste the red wine butter, so I wish there would have been more to add flavours to the tough tasting steak. The potatoes and veggies on the side were good, but loaded with butter. Comparing the 2 pieces of steak, the size and cut were not consistent at all.
2. Classic Oven Baked Thin-Crusted Pizza topped with Pepperoni and Mushrooms ($168)This was not a good tasting pizza at all. The pepperoni made it very greasy, and there was not enough cheese. It tasted like a store bought frozen pizza. It was quite awful.
3. Spaghetti sauteed with Ocean Prawns, Pancetta & Spicy Tomamto Sauce ($178)I was glad for this pasta, because it was the only thing that tasted decent. The spicy tomato sauce was nice and not spicy actually. Luckily, the spaghetti was not undercooked like the pasta salad.
To finish up, we each ordered a coffee to go along with our desserts. When we arrived, we saw different kinds of cakes, but when we went to grab some, there was only tiramisu left, so my friend asked about the chocolate cake and they generoulsy gave us each a slice.
Coffee- It was not good because it tasted burnt.Tiramisu- It looked like tiramisu, but tasted nothing like a tiramisu. I could taste nothing but cream.
Chocolate Cake- This mousse cake was the edible dessert, even though it just tasted store bought.
Macaroon- There was just one selection, which was raspberry. It was very sweet, but okay.
Fruit Tart- Okay, because it was probably not housemade.
Cheesecake- It didn't taste fresh and it was way too sweet.
Service:
Service was okay. I like that they offered us the chocolate cake, but at the same time they didn't really bother to replenish the buffet selection.
Final Verdict:
It is always disappointing to go to a restaurant and not being able to enjoy the food. I would have been happier at a fast food joint. I feel ripped off having paid $200 for food like this.
