We've attended and enjoyed the Brunch Buffet at Eleven several times in different seasons and brought out of town guests for the Christmas Eve brunch, but we were disappointed with this visit today and will not be returning. Everything was very underwhelming and I felt bad that we brought our guests here.
The menu listed Fuyu Persimmon & Dried Dates and that was not at the buffet. The Fresh Fruit Medley (assorted tropical fruit, melons, berries, mint syrup) has been one of my favorite parts of the buffet when we've attended before, but it did not consist of any tropical fruit today; it was simply cantaloupe and melons with a few berries on top (but only if you were one of the first people after they brought out a new batch).
The Dry-Fried Green Beans were very dry and overcooked; the Orange Glazed Roasted Chicken and Rosemary & Garlic Crusted Striploin Roast did not taste good and both were also dry. The Seafood Bisque was runny and very liquidy - not thick like what a bisque should be.
One of our guests has a big sweet tooth and loves desserts and sweet pastries; she did not like the french toast and thought all the pastries and desserts were just OK. I thought they could have been better quality and not just something you'd find at a free continental breakfast at a hotel chain. They sounded great in their descriptions and presentation, but lacked in taste and texture.
The best thing I had was the chicken apple sausage and I could've just heated that up on my own with store bought ones.
Service was great and attentive, but the food was not there today. Perhaps we got the leftover bits and pieces of things since they will be closed tomorrow for Christmas? Not sure, but it's been way better in the past.
