Even for Buffalo standards, Adam's Mark is hardly a fancy hotel. But what Adam's Mark does have is a decent dining option in Deco. It's a solid venue, but skip the dinner and shoot for breakfast and lunch only.
The interior of the dining room would suggest this place is appropriate for considerably large scale events like a potential wedding reception banquet location. There are massive round tables, chandeliers, and fine china / silverware for the evening. The wait staff is usually well dressed, in clean suits with impeccable manners.
I just hope they allow for catering because the dinner options were terrible. It's one's average traditional American menu, a little filet mignon here, chicken breast there, pan seared crusted tuna here, along with various salads and pasta combos. Like any good American joint, I went for the "Grilled Airline Breast of Chicken" ($18) and it was a miserable fail. My dining companion was all about the Steak Fajitas($19), but a couple of bites later she was ready for something else.
In the interest of saving money and your tastebuds, I'm going to go against the grain and advise all to avoid the a la carte options (especially at dinner) and go for the breakfast / lunch buffets. If I'm going to gorge in any buffet, please let it be breakfast.
I was surprised during their breakfast they had a nice selection of stuff from hot to cold food. On the hot food end, there were home fries, eggs benedict, sausage, bacon, biscuits and gravy. On the cold end, cereals, breads, and fruits were available and to top it all off, there was an omelette station. And for $12, it feels about right.
Everything was solid. The omelettes were well prepared and the biscuits & gravy were good. I'm not so much of a fan of the dried out eggs benedicts, but a few food snafus are expected in buffetland. When it's lunchtime the buffet will change to their items of the day, from which I understand are sandwiches, soups, salads, and pasta. -

Ridiculous that you have to pay $13 for breakfast in a hotel. The closest breakfast place is half a mile away... worth the walk.

AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL.
I will NEVER eat here again. I'm so disappointed that the once premier hotel in Buffalo has become crappy with an AWFUL restaurant. I should have listened to the warnings on here and avoided eating here at all costs!
We stayed here on Saturday night in a block of rooms as a part of a wedding group. I will review the room separately but I think this place falls under "Monet", if you recall Cher Horowitz' definition from the movie Clueless. "Monet" = looks good from far away but up close it is a MESS!
The restaurant looks okay, so you figure "what could be the harm of eating here"... But once you get up close, it's a shit show. I decided to order the buffet for breakfast on Sunday morning. Who can't find something to eat on a buffet?? WELL... The oatmeal looked like it had been sitting there for hours and was a big dried out pot of slop. The yogurt and fruit only looked okay but were just blah. I decided to try the eggs, bacon, sausage, and potatoes. Potatoes were the only edible part of the meal. The eggs were disgusting. Must have been made from those bags of liquid "egg". Texture was odd and the fact that you could slice out a smooth block of egg was disturbing to me. Bacon and sausage were so greasy and tasted OLD. I mean, how can you eff up bacon?!
I ended up with a bowl of rice krispies and a little carton of milk. That's how depressing the breakfast buffet is.
I ordered a glass of water and there was some green blob dried onto the foot of the glass. It was grossing my table mates out. HA! As one was commenting on how gross the "green thing" on my glass was, the other said "oh I know" and pointed to another green thing on the sugar packets. WTF?! This place was dirty!!! We luckily had some laughs about all of this but it was gross.
THEN, the chef walks out of the kitchen and he has a horribly stained chef coat on! Most chefs take pride in their appearance. A chef shouldn't be so messy so as to be a mess himself. He coat was all green stained too. LOL!!
The service was awful too. When I checked in on the Yelp app, an offer came up for 15% off of one item. When I showed the waitress she said they couldn't accept the offer because it wasn't a printed coupon. Ha! Then she charged us for 3 buffets when we had technically one buffet and one bowl of cereal. Our third table mate didn't eat after looking at the buffet. SMART.
Bottom line is: Don't eat here unless you're desperate. And even then, you'd be better off going through a Horton's or McD's drive thru. YUCK. -

Lets see the Breakfast Buffet ... The worse food I have ever tasted in my life was here! First off 14.95 you need to add more items . Second off please cook the food til its done . The french toast was soggy and under cooked i had to place it in the toaster to finish it. The eggs were over cooked a dry as a bone the oppisite of the french toast. Your coffee was ice cold and tasted like it was left over from the other day .
The dinner service was very odd i stayed in twice to eat here and both times i orders apps and all the food came out together ; Please remind staff and or cook to pace yourselfs while filling an order .
If it wasnt for my company footing the bill i would have left! -

I would rather order Domino's Pizza then to ever venture into this place again. The wait staff is either untrained or uninterested or both. 10 minutes for anyone to acknowledge that I had been seated. Then asking someone to take my order, then waiting another half hour for an order of wings. During that half hour, no one ever said anything about checking on my order, nothing. I was the Amazing Invisible Customer. I did not realize I possessed such super powers. So,...
When I did eventually get my order 45 mins later, I didn't eat it. Nothing ruins my appetite more than poor service. Even if you are limited on time, like I was, and you feel as though you are trapped in a hotel...do yourself a favor and order the aforementioned Domino's.
