Food and Dining

Food was fine! Had two buffets and served samething. Think they should have changed the menu.

The Biscayne Bay Buffet & Pizzeria

Same food everyday only changed soups! Bacon was cold in the morning. Kids loved pizza and fries!

Ipanema Restaurant

3 out of 5

Food could have been better! Serves could communicate more! Other servers were more attentive to my table! The look of the food was nice. But when a kid thinks hes getting a salad but gets ham and corn separate and looking fancy it get them confuse.

Marketplace Bar

Henry was nice at the buffet! Shreed the Sous chef was really nice! Edgar entertain the children even though he was not our server thought that was awesome! Due to the fact our own server didn't interact with us at the Impanema.
