I used to go to this restaurant years ago with my parents. They wanted my sister and I to practice our manners. I was pleased that it looked the same minus some tiki torches. The menu of course had changed greatly but that was to be expected. The hostess was very curt to me and my party. The food was good albeit a bit pricey. Service was adequate.

Talk about a bad experience with an expectation that got destroyed. Been here many years ago and came back with friends and family for brunch as a celebration. Brunch was gross! Small over cooked shrimp, crab legs of horrible quality, pasta and omelette stations were absolutely filthy and made you not wanna eat any of it with all the cross contamination and food everywhere, as most of their cooking stations were. They ran out of items an hour before they ended the brunch, Mac n cheese was tasteless and watery, ribs were inedible, hollandaise sauce on the Benedict was not fresh nor made from scratch. The list goes on but for 50$ a person without tax and tip..... never again! It was seriously not worth it to spend a dime there. I'd avoid this place. Not worth the drive across the bridge.

Honestly just the most charming place!! A little pricey for the portion size but with food this good I wasn't paying much attention. Our server, Anthony, was just wonderful. I would recommend Reef to anyone looking for authentic flavor and professional service.

Very small parking lot, forcing you to valet ($4.50). Very crowed and NOISY inside. I've attended the Reef with a private birthday party and it was nice. You are in a private room with the buffet food in the same room with you. If you don't have a private room and go for Sunday brunch with a group of people, it's crowded and buffet tables are all over the restaurant without any instructions as to what food is where. Once seated you and MANY people are in a big room seated closely and it gets very loud.You have to walk all over to figure out what is where. Endless Champagne. Great service from the waiters. The buffet is $$ pricy. The buffet has many choices of hot and cold food. The food is good.

Great quality food, but $50+ for buffet seems a bit steep. Valet is good and complimentary, minus gratuity. View is nice. However, pretty crowded and not enough staff in all places to keep lines moving. Fun to go occasionally. Oh, and didn't have any non dairy creamer, etc. Dissapointed:(
