Meh. Won't spend my $$ there again. Overpriced. Flavorless. I'm good. Save you money and go down the street.

Overpriced, low quality food. I'd avoid anything prepared on site. And there aren't really any other options on-site for lunch.

This place is just too expensive for food that isn't worth it. I don't mind paying extra for better quality, but here you are paying extra for food equivalent to a free breakfast buffet.

Honestly it doesn't even deserve one star. Has the misfortune to eat here today as the only selection available during an Expo I attended. Sit down restaurants were not an option. I simply hoped for a decent sandwich. The cold cases were extremely sparsely stocked. Veggie wrap...no thank you. Ridiculously priced footlong hoagie, yeah right. How about a 6" sub or just a sandwich with meat. Finally settled on the pepperoni pizza. WHAT A MISTAKE!!! I can't describe how disgusting this was. Half had no pepperoni whatsoever? 50% crust and lukewarm crappy pizza for the rest. Add a $4 bottle of lemonade to complete this travesty. Added a copy of my receipt to show what a colossal waste of money this was. AVOID at all costs.

Ice cream too expensive and too sweet and not enough flavor.

This place is a great option if you are hungry at the Gaylord and all the restaurants have long waits or are closed. It's probably even s great option if the restaurants are open with no wait.You can order from a cashier and pick up your food in 15-20 minutes. There are tables in the atrium to sit at. Everything we ordered was surprisingly tasty... Meatloaf with mashed potatoes and broccololini, Angus burger with cheese and bacon, and chicken quesadilla. Prices are reasonable for the hotel and the convenience. (The food in my photo is partially eaten already.)

I ate at Pienza twice on two different days during a recent conference held at the Gaylord. Both times I found the staff very friendly and quick to ask if I needed anything. The first time I walked in with no reservation and was still instantly seated and served. 2nd time I used Open Table to book a reservation and was accorded the same treatment. The food was excellent, and there was wide variety between what was available, from cereal and oatmeal, waffles, pancakes, french toast, pastries, etc. to eggs, bacon, sausage. Orange juice, milk and water were in abundance, and I did several other kinds of juices available for purchase. I would highly recommend Pienza to the busy traveler on the go who needs a quick place to assemble a plate of food themselves to their own tastes.

The service was excellent and the food was good. However, I made reservations for a lunch buffet at 12:30 and was told when I arrived that due to an event, it was only a breakfast buffet and the only lunch item was roast beef, mashed potatoes and broccoli. And, I was also informed that the buffet would be closing in a 1/2 hour. I was disappointed and thought that I should have been informed in advance.

Our group thoroughly enjoyed our gathering at the Pienza. The food was delicious, especially the individually made omelets. The wait staff was exceptional -- from the cocktails before our meal to the end we were never rushed and never had to wait for service. In addition, everyone was very courteous. Our friends were able to relax and enjoy this special time together.

Have you ever been to a restaurant where the trash was piled up at the door. That is what greeted me. I should have turned around when I saw the dirty tables and half eaten food piled in overflowing trash receptacles close to the door. The food was cold and without taste. I have never had a meal this bad. The desert was ok. A bowl of Romen noodles would have been more satisfying. I give this place zero stars, thumbs down.

Some of the food was overcooked. Food was replenished quickly. We were kind of far away from the buffet, even though there were closer tables. I just had back surgery two months ago, so it was tiring going back and forth. They had these wonderful peppermint macaroons that were yummy!

Its ok. Very overpriced for what you get. Service is great, but the bussing carts and tubs smelt like they were never cleaned and they stunk while they were rolled around the tables. Some food was good, some was on its way to be good but was not cooked correctly so it was ruined. We only ate here twice and then we just didnt go back

We were surprised by the cost of the meal. It was over priced based on the quality of food. The quality of the food options did not match the price. Too expensive! Food was Terrible. Desserts looked pretty but were stale. The ambiance was nice as always but the food was terrible!

I was very displeased with the buffet as a whole. No Prime Rib station as stated on the menu. Brisket was well done. Mashed potatoes were like soup and someone spilled a salt shaker in them. Overall foods that were cooked were not of good quality. I was not impressed with how much the overall cost was. Our waitress was not readily available...had to find someone constantly for water and refills. Did not wipe the table off after spilling OJ. The only food worth the experience was the seafood bar... Horrible and will never be back. Not worth the money at all. $88.00 per person...Grateful I could afford it.

First off, I've been coming to the Peinza for years for Christmas with my family. This time I was rather disappointed. It took the server about 15-20 minutes to come and greet us and get beverages. At this point, we were already at the buffet eating without drinks. Our drinking glasses were dirty and the location the hostess sat us was next to a few big groups of people so it was really hard for us to get around. Needless to say, I was a bit disappointed this year
