I visited Terron this morning for the breakfast buffet. Overall, it was an okay experience—about 3 to 3.5 out of 5 stars. For two people, the total cost was $63.15 (buffet + tax). Since it’s entirely self-serve, they didn't ask for tips. You grab your own water, utensils, and napkins, and you pay your bill when you leave, similar to a diner system.
Upon entering, the owner greeted us and directed us to our seats, which was a nice touch. However, I was a bit hesitant because the table wasn’t very clean. There were visible dried marks on the table, though no food crumbs. I decided to use a napkin instead of asking for assistance.
As for the food, the overall quality was good, and there were plenty of options to choose from. I enjoyed the sausages, egg dishes (boiled eggs, small omelets, scrambled eggs), and breads. The prosciutto and smoked salmon were especially fresh and flavorful. For dessert, I tried yogurt and fruit, which were excellent. However, the donut-like dessert (resembling a cream-filled munchkin) was very dry and disappointing.
For drinks, I had juice and drip coffee, which were standard diner quality. If you’re looking for better coffee, they do offer espresso and espresso-based drinks upon request.
There are a few areas for improvement:
1. Cleanliness: Although it’s self-serve, tables weren’t being cleaned regularly. There also wasn’t a designated place to put used dishes, so I had to ask the owner. While he eventually moved them, I noticed other customers using the same plates to refill their food.
2. Attention to Detail: Some things could have been better managed. For example, the mozzarella mini ball dish had no serving spoon until the owner noticed and brought one. Similarly, at the coffee/tea station, there were no labels for the coffee, hot water, or milk, which caused some confusion.
In summary, the experience was okay. The price is reasonable, and I’d say the buffet offers breakfast comparable to a 3-star hotel. If you’re having a lazy morning and want a quick breakfast with decent variety, I’d recommend Terron’s breakfast buffet.
