What people say, in short
Colony at the Ritz-Carlton draws buffet recommendations, with individual diners praising the cooked food, seafood spread and variety. Several commenters advise booking ahead, including reports of difficulty reserving at short notice; those are experiences rather than a fixed booking rule. Value and atmosphere divide opinion: some see it as worth a splurge, while one diner finds the food generic and others describe disappointing desserts or a cramped, noisy room. A different contributor prefers its cosier setting to Rise. One diner also reports a limited champagne-service window, not a guarantee of current brunch arrangements.
