Such a disappointment. Normally I dont do this kind of thing but I was so disappointed, I had to say something. My daughter graduated from VT this weekend. I told her months in advance to make a reservation at a nice restaurant to celebrate this wonderful event. She and her boyfriend had gone to Prestons, The Inn at Virginia Tech a couple of times and loved it. She called for 7:30 pm Saturday night reservations for the four of us. When we arrived they had our reservation but we were told that the dining room was not open. Instead, they were having a buffet graduation dinner set up in one of their conference rooms. What?? There was no mention of buffet dinner when she called for the reservation, if there had been she would not have made the reservation. Since we were already there, we decided to try it because we didnt want to wait an hour or more at another restaurant to get a table. I guess 7:30pm is considered a late time to be eating? We were one of if not the last group to be seated. They were already cleaning up most of the tables when we sat down. The buffet was terrible, a couple of cold salads, some peel your own shrimp, roast beef, a pasta dish, a vegetable dish, salmon and Maryland style fried chicken. Nothing was hot or even really warm. As we were eating our waitress was checking in once and awhile. She took our plates but never gave us new silverware? She just took it off the plate and put it on the table. I have never been to a buffet were they did that. When she considered us done, she brought our check which we hadnt asked for and left. The rest of the staff was breaking down all the tables around us, it wasnt even 9pm. My daughter wanted another glass of wine. I had to hunt our waitress down, she said she would be over in a minute and came back close to 15 minutes later. By that time we just wanted to leave. Instead of being a cherry on top, this dinner was such a disappointment on one of the happiest days of my daughters life.
