Delicious buffet! Perfect to go to before a show at the Keller. It’s nice not having to worry about getting to the theater in time. The caperese stuffed chicken was a highlight!

Wow!! We were lucky to book a table for 2, at 6:15 before the 7:30 show. The buffet was well tended, well stocked, fresh, seasoned, and had a lovely variety of veg, protiens, and carbs including fresh ripe fruit and mini creme brule cheesecakes for dessert, for $40 pp. Cocktails were delicious but definately have a ‘theater’ premium. Host and server were friendly and quick too. We sipped and relaxed until 5 mins before curtain, which felt like a royal experience. 10/10 would do again!

This buffet is fancy schmansy. Perfect pre-show selection. No muss. No fuss. Dine in comfort in a stylish setting and then just walk to your seats.

Lines were very long to get in the Keller Auditorium and then another long line to be seated for your “reservation” and finally another long and slow line to get your food which is served buffet style. By the team you get to your table, all your food is cold (cold corn chowder and cold salmon is not very palatable). Limited wait staff was slow to get our drink order (we finally had to flag them down) so by the time it arrived, we were 2/3 through with our meal. The carving table servings of the tenderloin were incredibly small and consisted largely of fat, when I requested more, I was given another “micro-serving.” The value of this meal alone did not equate to the $25 per person charge – at the most maybe $15. Drinks were overpriced and they were out of the Robert Mondavi Cabernet I had ordered so they substituted with the less flavorful 14 Hands. If you want an over-priced mediocre dinner… this is the place.

I loved the convenience of the Keller Cafe before a show! And the food was good! There were lots of choices for different diets — my husband is a vegetarian and I don’t eat gluten. We got there right when it opened– so the lines were not a problem, We will definitely eat here pre-show again!

It’s so lovely being able to eat here and go right into a play. The food was delicious and there was a lot of variety to choose from. I loved being able to go back for seconds on their tasty vegetables! We will plan this every event!!

Surprisingly good little buffet at the top of the a Keller. I’ve been there several times and I always enjoy the food. It’s nice to just be an elevator ride away from my theatre seat!
