Absolutely not. Your $100 for two can be MUCH better spent in a number of places in Leesburg or Ashburn. First, they charged an automatic gratuity of %18 for a party of two... for a buffet. Not that the tip is too much or anything, but you need to make sure you don't double tip because of this. The ambiance of the whole place just seems a bit run down. Their grand halls and massive stonework columns are totally irrelevant when you start taking note of all the other ignored details. There are broken window frames, threadbare carpet, the napkins seem like industrial kitchen towels, un-bussed tables, no tableclothes, run down and outdated decor. Baked goods: probably the best part. Still, they weren't great. Someone went overboard on spices in a couple. The meats: were all pretty old and taste like re-heated food. The spiral ham was cold. The fruit: there was none there... Oh wait, my GF saw someone bring out a plastic bag of apples, rip open the plastic and the put apples out. Do those little guys need to be washed first? Eggs: there was no egg option unless you wanted an omelet made for you. I was planning on getting one, but after trying the other stuff I had no desire to go back for an omelet. Desserts: there was a cheesecake bite that was OK. The chia pudding was bad. In fact the only fruit in the whole buffet was a little canned tangerine slice and even that had a weird taste.

This was a beautiful place to eat breakfast, from the view to the decor to the presentation of the various food and buffet options. The meal was delicious and nothing was "ordinary," even the muffins tasted extra good and the jams tasted home made. The made on the spot omelets were fabulous and the surprise of seeing deviled eggs and smoked salmon offered on the buffet were a treat. The prices were the only negative....higher than I prefer to pay for breakfast, however it was what I expected a restaurant in a five start resort. A lovely breakfast.
