Annabelle's - Mesa

I was more than disappointed at annabelle’s on thanksgiving. After having enjoyed the Christmas brunch 5 years earlier, I convinced my family to skip and go to annabelle. the host went to a table that was not ready and quickly rushed back to the waiting area. the second attempt was not better, the tablecloth was disgusting, they did not change it from the previous party, simply wiped. I asked for a clean table cloth and during the waiting we were handed over the salt, pfeffer and sugar dish to hold? our server was very nice and asked for drinks, we all got a single glass champagne included in the $39.99 per person rate and it was warm and very cheap. made for the buffet, the truthahn was a pressed roll and cut into slices, for the sink that sat in the water, to become hard. they missed the best, the sweet potato. the main ribbed station was okay, but the meat was over boiled and dry. the cheese bar had a nice selection of cheese, jumbo garnelen and a few other fingerfoods. the desertable was tasty, but service on plastic plates. the bill comes, and they have added almost 25% congratulate to my bill; for $214.00 for 4 people and 1 was my older mother, the experience prices only 2.5 stars. this will be our LAST Jubilee meal at annabelle, I was so embarrassing that I fled so high from this place and the meal was less than mediocre.

My husband made reservations at Annabella's Restaurant for Thanksgiving Day and let me tell you it was just fabulous. I told the chef and manager that I would let Leisure World know. They have been under new management since May 2018. We had booked our reservation late this year and could not be seated at McCormick Ranch or Wrigley Manson. Annabelle's was available although the old reviews were not so good. We booked it anyway because it was close and available. I am so happy we did not listen to the bad reviews We went and it was better than our past experience at McCormick Ranch and not as expensive. It was buffet style and had all the traditional varieties of food for Thanksgiving. The gravy and stuffing were excellent. They also had a breakfast brunch buffet and a wonderful salad bar with specialty meats, salad, and cheeses, dessert table. The buffet price included free Champagne or Mimosa's upon your arrival. We would highly recommend Annabelle's with it's vintage 1950's glamour and gorgeous chandeliers. So, if you want atmosphere and fine dining it is here at Annabelle. They are also open for breakfast lunch and dinner daily with outdoor pool view patio seating. We definitely are going there again and again and it's so close. I hope you take my recommendation and visit this restaurant so they can stay in business. We need a fine dining place close to L.W. Sally Dave Perry

Very big disappointment my fiance proposed to me here last year so this year for our anniversary we were very excited to go back as LAST year's experience was very wonderful. The food was great steak was topped with an amazing mushroom sauce no A1 was needed. This year on the other hand was extremely horrible as soon as we arrived front desk was rude. Annabel's was closed for Easter breakfast decoration set up...already a disappointment for us since we wanted to sit at the same table as last year. The price of the food went up 50% and the quality of it downgraded about just that much as well. The side options weren't as great ,and then the side I did order wasn't even available. The steak was full of fat and dry I couldn't even enjoy it ,I had to keep cutting off fat and had to bang the A1 sauce just to get anything out of it. Overall HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE definitely wouldn't recommend it.

Came on a Sunday morning and didn't even order anything. The breakfast they offer is $12/person and is bareilly a 6 item buffet. JBs offers a better breakfast experience for less.

More than a little disappointed. Only one server working the bar and dining room. Waited almost an hour to get our food despite being the only party there at the time. The kitchen must be some distance from the dining room because when the food did eventually reach out take it was lukewarm at best. Drink orders were just as slow. Don't bother unless you plan to stay awhile.
