| - I came here the other day for their Sunday buffet brunch special.
My experience was very enjoyable, from the good food to the excellent service.
Since it was a buffet, I ended up trying a lot of the food they had to offer. Some of the food that stood out to being especially good was the Sunday eggs, the chicken parm, panetone French toast, the caesar salad, the chicken apple sausage, and meatballs. There was mac and cheese there as well. This was the first time I had mac and cheese at a buffet or all you can eat setting, and it tasted exceptional. The noodles weren't over cooked, and the cheese sauce was tasty and creamy, there was a bread crumb like topping on it that help bring it all together. There was even some partially peeled shrimp there. Unlike some places, it was properly cleaned and deveined, on top of it not being over cooked and mushy. I wish the cocktail sauce that accompanied it had some more flavor and horseradish in it. The, what I were to assume, mini cannoli were excellent, even though they were already filled, the shell was still crispy and crunchy while the filling wasn't overly sweet.
All of the food I tasted had flavor, and was appealing to the eye, which tends to be a lacking attribute for a lot of buffet places. While you saw the cooks actually make the food, it actually tasted and looked like it was made from scratch, not something that came from a bag, frozen, or reheated from the day before.
The service was top notch. My glass was never less that 1/3 empty, and the busser made sure I always had fresh forks and knives when I came back with more food. The waitress and busser were very attentive, always making sure I was comfortable, enjoying myself, and asking if there was anything they could do for me.
For the price, selection and quality of food, and service, I was very satisfied with my experience at Buddy V's Ristorante. Not only will I most definitely be coming back for the brunch special, I would recommend the place to other people that I know.
