I love Breakfast....I love buffets. What is not heaven when it comes to Sunday Brunch. If you are looking for a place...I would suggest the Atrium Cafe located inside the Radisson formerly known as the Coast Terrace Inn on the southside of Edmonton for those of you familiar with the city of Edmonton.
Now this is the mother of buffets I think just for the place as a whole. You walk in to the tranquility of the fountain, you look around and see windows of suites, hopefully with the curtains closed so you don't lose your appetite if you see something distasteful. You go and see the host or hostess and behind them you hear this lavish harp playing in the background. Ok....ok, lets get to the good stuff! I'm only writing for the FOOD!
Alright let's begin this crazy cuisine adventure...you got scrambled eggs, bacon, breakfast sausage....mmmm....waffles, there is some hot lunch items that vary from time to time, there's the seafood bar with smoked salmon, crab legs, shrimp...oh yes...cocktail sauce, there is other delectable fishes to choose from, mussels...EGGS BENDICT...for egg lovers, don't you just love that bite into a nice soft and tender egg where the yolk is creamy inside your mouth...oh yah...when I said heaven, thats heaven...continuing further to the omellette maker...choice of spinach, shrimp, cheese, ham, onion, green pepper, bacon, tomato or a mix of any of the ingredients, your choice of breads like croissants, bagels, white bread, brown bread, buns...mmm...buns, there is the long row of salads and mixed fruits choices, the drink station for apple, orange, grapefruit, cranberry, milk and chocolate milk and finally the dessert area. You have various CHEESECAKES, cakes, J - E - Double L - O, and some other desserts.
Now i would just like to take this opportunity to say thank you to the after dinner mints, the fortune cookies, and the candies that restaurants give with the bill. You know, whoever came up with this idea, its such a nice thought. With the Atrium Cafe they have a big bowl of candy, the little ones in the wrapper. Its a must to try one.
Ok, that last bit got kind of cheesy I know, its not my usual feel for a posting. the Atrium Cafe, get some brownie points with the in laws, bring them here...let's not talk about price...hehehe. -

For some reason I thought Atrium Cafe would be better. The quality of food was really bad. It wasn't fresh and it was cold. The brunch was actually terrible.
The service was terrible as well. The server was really rude and high strung. It felt like she just wanted us out of there. She kept asking us if we were ready for the bill and we had just started eating. When we told her we were still going to be a while she gave us attitude.
Just avoid this place. -

The sunday breakfast brunch is fantastic. My children love this hotel almost for that buffet. The lunch buffet is alright. The 'menu' food is generally good and served in decent portions; the buffet food is regularly replenished. Their regular menu for lunch or dinner offers nice selections and their wine menu is plentiful (surprisingly). The velvet seats need to be cleaned or changed out. Other than that, the service is attentive and staff is friendly. The atmosphere is nice as there are plenty of plants, a nice water feature and high ceilings in this pleasant cafe.

I went here on a Saturday with my mom and my boyfriend. The price was right so we thought, why not?
The service was terrible. If you read my reviews, you have probably already figured out that I am very impatient. This instance was no different.
I need my coffee in the morning! We sat there for almost 10 minutes before anyone came around to say hello and offer the coffee pot.
Finally, we had coffee and we were ready to get up to the buffet and choose our goodies. I wasn't amazed by the buffet, but I wasn't disappointed either. The price was good so I was happy. The important breakfast staples are offered here: bread, croissants, bacon, sausages, pancakes, french toast, eggs, hashbrowns etc..
My boyfriend had to ask for fresh pancakes because the ones that were out were stale and cold. Yuck.
I left here feeling happy that we found a cheap breakfast buffet to go to. The next weekend we decided to go here again, but on Sunday.
The price per person jumped $15!!
No way. No How.
It was worth the lower price, but definitely not the higher one.
Tip: Go on a Saturday for the cheap price, but never waste your money on the Sunday brunch here!! -

I went for brunch at the Atrium Cafe this weekend (located in the Radisson Hotel). I have always held the Atrium Cafe as the best of the best when it comes to brunches in the city (I've been there once before but it was years ago). I was wrong. And I was very disappointed.
There was a lot of food but the food wasn't very good - the waffles were soggy, the ribs were cold, the crab wasn't fresh, and it was apparent that the food had been sitting out for a very long time.
We had just sat down with our first plate of food and a server came and dropped off our bill. She kept coming back - not to check on us - to see if we'd paid yet. It was awful! It was rude! It was uncomfortable!
Do not waste your time. Don't go for brunch here. It is not a pleasant experience. -
