    Server was great but service was slow which was not the servers fault. Conference was going on, but given this hotel, in my opinion, they should be used to the amount of people at any given time. Perhaps they did not have enough help.

    Looking for a family restaurant near colonial Williamsburg that was relatively affordable for a nice lunch and Traditions lived up to that billing. Sandwiches were huge, the fries and fruit salad sides were of considerable portions, the desserts were magnificent and the wait staff was friendly and checked on us often to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. My daughter thought one of the chicken sandwiches was the best she ever had. The desserts were sweet and large although probably a few dollars more than they should have been. We also had the pimento cheese appetizer which was perfectly priced and portioned for three or four people. Well we like to try different places when we're out, Traditions really did an amazing job and served us well allowing us to get right back into our day in Colonial Williamsburg. We would definitely consider going back in a pinch, especially for lunch. We recommend others also give this place by try. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

    Everything was too salty - yardbird and fries. Unsweetened tea was bitter and strong. Fruit was not ripe.

    The offering was presented as a 4th of July Summer Picnic Buffett with traditional summer dishes. Many of the serving dishes being empty or near empty. The kitchen staff seemed overwhelmed and unable to keep up with demand as people stood in line waiting. The food was uninspiring, and didn't live up to expectations for the price ($50/person). The BBQ was bone-in thighs and legs, didn't seem to have come near a BBQ. The brisket was served with baked-beans and appears to have be designed to be mostly beans and little brisket. It seemed to be setup in a way to ensure lower cost to the restaurant. The potatoe salad was watery and the potatoes hard. Desserts were convention-meeting-like in nature and they ran out of some of the advertised desserts. Since the reservation was established as prepaid and they took a preemptive 20% tip on a buffet service, I suppose I should have suspected this would disappoint, as they likely assessed any post meal tip would have been in jeopardy. That said, the reservations should have given the restaurant the information they needed to be prepared and not run out of food. No plan to return

    Food was ok, but not great. For people who don’t eat dairy it was hard as all salads had cheese on them
