    We had a wonderful 53rd. Anniversary, our waitress was very efficient and very polite. The food was well cooked and came with beautiful presentation. My husband and I go at least 4 times a year . I love the ambiance. It’s not really a good bargain , but it has something special , because we drive 90 miles for an expensive chicken dinner. I love going, so I do it.

    Our waitperson I believe Carla was awesome despite the long day and demanding crowd. Food was delicious as usual. Just wish you offered non-dairy vegetable option and non-dairy dessert such as sorbet.

    We waited almost an hour and a half with a reservation we were told it was because we requested a special room which we did not. Luckily my mother brought her walker with her. It was only 3 of us and people with 16 and 25 family members were all sat before us. It wasn’t corrected until I went to the desk and to the bussers in the main hall.

    Had to wait an hour even with having a reservation! Was not happy. Was over-crowded and seemed unorganized. No where to sit inside while waiting, which was a problem for a lot of people, especially older ones. Food was good as usual but we didn't like that you could 'only' order the big family feast special, and not just a smaller 2 or 3 piece dinner. Waaay too much food for one person, didn't eat even half of it, and so a ton of food wasted. Been here many times over many years, and we typically love it, but unfortunately, this was the worst experience we've had.

    Easter buffet was outstanding. Great selection. Food was delicious. In general I am not a fan of buffets but food that should have been warm was warm & only ran into one item that had not been replenished timely (the apple strudel unfortunately). Service was excellent. Crowds on this holiday were large & we were seated 30 minutes after our reservation time . But the outstanding Zehnder’s food worth the wait.
