Rather than limiting yourself to just buffets, I would hit some of the chain restaurants for meals as they often have something for everyone. Plus, you can check out their menus online beforehand to maybe 'put the feelers out' with everyone.

IHOP - They do sandwiches, salads, burgers etc.
Cracker Barrel - crackerbarrel/menu/lunch-and-dinner
Cheesecake Factory - A good shout, someone suggested earlier. We have fussier eaters in our party & it never fails to please everyone

The setting is lovely as well in the atrium of the hotel. Themed areas such as Everglades with 'gators - yes real ones but only about 4' long and safely fenced.

You have to pay to park so make sure you get your parking ticket verified by the maitre'd before you leave.

Brunch is a bit pricey though at $55 each

GC is worth a couple of visits as is Sweet Tomatoes. Wouldnt do Ponderosa again though

yeah I did ponderosa in 2007 and probably not the right choice,cracker barrel looks good a mixture of healthy and hearty thanks
