    I've been taking friends and family to Cafe Florian for Thanksgiving for the last few years. We all love it! My guests especially commented on how courteous the staff was. Thank you for another wonderful experience. Thanksgiving at Cafe Florian is the highlight of my year.

    EXCELLENT Thanksgiving Day brunch that had everything you would want. Turkey with all the trimmings, ham, mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, bacon, waffles, green bean casseral, pumpkin ravioli, lamb, yams, steak, prime rib, snow crabs, oysters, jumbo shrimp and various salads, cheeses and breads. The food was very tasty and the service was great. I highly recommend that you make reservations 2 months in advance, if you ever want to go for a holiday meal.

    Our family had made Cafe Florian our tradition for holidays for the past few years, we’ve celebrated Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, and Thanksgiving every year here. In times past, we’ve always loved the abundant food selection. This year, it was a far cry from what we’ve known. Food quality and selection were way down from years past. This year, we also brought friends to Thanksgiving here, and frankly it was embarrassing to have had them experience Cafe Florian at its lowest. I found myself eating charcuterie at a seafood buffet. Overall, it feels like Cafe Florian has lost its touch. I will definitely be looking for other options in the future for my holiday celebrations.

    We have hoing to Cafe Florian for several yeats during Thanksgiving. We went today at 10:30 am. We were looking forward to the same lavish spread but this time there was no dungeness crab. They had Alaskan king crab and it was placed with the shrimp cocktail. We were disappointed, of course. Somebody in our group lamely said, prehaps no dungeness in season yet. Oh well. However as were finishing up at 12 noon, the dungeness crab came out! We felt short changed! We paid same price but did not get the same food choice. I talked yo the manager and expressed our concern. I hope they don’t pull this bec we really enjoyed CF for many years although there are many other choices.

    This is our favorite place for a family meal. Some of the dishes were empty and we had to wait 30 minutes for the trays to refill. It took too long. Service was great.

    Me and my family have been choosing Cafe’ Florian as our go to for special celebrations for several times now. We would normally received warm accommodations by courteous staff. Excellent service as always. This time around we had over 10 guests and everyone was impressed with the food, service, ambience and friendliness and attentiveness of the staff. Will definitely comeback. Thank you! We do appreciate you all.
