| - I agree with Cory, Graze was a huge letdown. I am a fan of prime rib so I did enjoy that but my husband who hates fatty meat really hated it and he is the biggest carnivore I know! For an alternative protein, there was only a pork option and our family does not eat any pork products so it was really pathetic that there wasn't a fish or chicken considering it is supposed to be a buffet!
Many religious groups don't eat red meat and Graze really is loosing out on patrons due to that limitation, with exception to Wednesday when they serve carved turkey in lieu of the prime rib.
When I think buffet, I think of an abundance of selections. NOPE, not here, there was only one steamed veg medley, one potato, one really sketchy looking pasta and one soup. No buns, no rice dish, dismal salad bar and not a huge selection of deserts, nothing at this buffet screamed out at me and I think this is the main reason I don't do buffets.
If a buffet is going to do a few items, they should be executed perfectly (which was a total fail for Graze) and if you have too many options they end up bland and dry and really the average person eats one plate and finishes with something sweet. For me, you don't get the best bang for your buck here, or any other buffet I have been to with exception to one brunch I had several years ago to at the Coast Plaza hotel, but still at $25 bucks a pop for brunch, really?
Back to Graze...My little guy only ate caesar salad and some fruit, so thankfully we didn't have to pay for him since he was under 7. In fact, I was surprised to not see any kid friendly options.
If I wasn't a prime rib fan I would have given Graze 1 star, but since they had the mushroom/onion saute station that helped a smidge.
I would have really liked this place if they a.) had more selection, b.) had other protein alternatives and c.) had some kid friendly items, really how much work is it to make some mac 'n cheese and nuggets?
