The Easter brunch buffet at The Willard was phenomenal. There were so many stations offering many food options from breakfast to meats to salads, breads, cold seafood bar, sushi, dessert, soup, and an open bar. There was also a petting zoo in a separate room for guests to enjoy that consisted of goats, bunnies, chicks, and turtles. Each dining area had a harpist and they were very good. So good, we tipped the one in our dining room. Valet parking was and is available as well as self-parking with validation. Service was impeccable and everyone was very pleasant and nice. James and Valerie took care of our table in the back corner.
