This restaurant did not meet my expectations. While it is a buffet, the selection was quite limited. During our visit, they served Asian cuisine, but both the fried rice and vegetarian poke contained undercooked rice, which is unacceptable. There were some decent salad options, and the charcuterie was average. The desserts were just okay—nothing special. It felt like most of the food was pre-made and not prepared on-site, which was disappointing. Additionally, the service was very disappointing. Our waitress was friendly, but she seemed untrained and unsure of her responsibilities. Overall, it was not a good experience, and I wouldn't recommend saving your money here.

We visited Tree Top with a group of friends for dinner before the Gypsy Kings concert, and we had a fantastic time. The restaurant featured several food stations that were continuously replenished, offering a wide variety of options including delicious trout, tapas, salads, and cheese boards—there were so many choices! The dessert station was also delightful. The standout of our evening was our waiter, Peter, who was incredibly attentive, charming, and friendly. The service was outstanding! We will definitely return before our next concert.
