We ate at the American Audubon Dining Room for breakfast, afternoon tea, and dinner while staying at the Omni Homestead Resort. All three experiences were great, although the breakfast buffet may not be worth the cost. Oscar was our server for tea and dinner and was absolutely wonderful, attentive, and accommodating - he made us feel very welcome and definitely contributed to our enjoyment of the dining experiences. The food (and tea) exceeded our expectations, and the live pianist (who takes requests) was such a fun touch! We would definitely eat here again when staying at the Omni.

Terrific food and great service. Our waiter was professional and friendly. He seemed to recognize, without being told, that we were having a work-related meeting/dinner. He kept our drinks full and didn't interrupt unnecessarily. The restaurant was reasonably full for a weeknight, but it didn't seem excessively loud. Food was properly prepared and presented, and everyone enjoyed their meal and drinks. No complaints, would definitely dine again!
