We stayed at the Thayer hotel during West Point’s graduation week and ate multiple times at this restaurant. Due to graduation week, most meals from Wednesday to Saturday were served buffet style, though some meals had a fixed price menu also available. We generally opted...for the buffet. (Side note: we did get the opportunity to try the regular menu on Tuesday since we arrived a day early and it had a lot of good options; everyone at our table was happy.) The food was really varied, with lots of interesting options, and very good, even with the themed buffets (eg: seafood). Drinks were always ordered through the server; coffee is freshly brewed. We had a wonderful server named Sandy for almost every meal we were there. She was extremely friendly and helpful (even when we asked her regarding some of the complications around graduation, like to-go box lunches). I think my grandma was ready to adopt her at the end, haha. There’s a great view of the river from the windows, and there’s a small balcony area if you want to take a closer look. Overall, great restaurant and service.More

Been a patron over 40 years. Long, long wait for service all throughout the this meal. Overworked waitress had appx. 40 people to serve. 4 servings of french onion soup returned. We all agreed it was just hot water with cheese. Wedge Salad came out...with main entree. Little dressing on them. No bread served.Short ribs returned and Salmon replaced it. Steak, Pasta, Chicken Main course OK. Prices very reasonable. Ambiance great. Staff was pleasant and apologetic. Vegans menu very limited. We will not return. Ps ZuLu rooftop bar gets similar review. Staff was also apologetic. Facility not professionally run or staffed.More

Great food, service and views !! Great old fashioned elegance. A quiet gem. So many happy families sitting for hours.More

We have enjoyed the food, service and ambiance of the historic and charming Thayer Hotel for over 10 years. But, last night’s romantic 4 course meal was the best yet. The Pan Seared Scallops with a butternut, baby fennel and apple sauce was simply decadent...and we fell in love with the Burrata with Olive Tapenade and Balsamic Syrup. After all of appetizers and salad, we were happily surprised with the full dinner course with all of the trimmings! As always, it is a pleasure to be spoiled at The Thayer!More

It was sad to see how far this restaurant has fallen compared to several years ago. Without advance notice, the server abruptly informed us upon greeting us for the first time that our food choices for our Friday evening dinner would be confined to “the...Sunday buffet.” The food was room temperature. The “pork loin” was full of gristle. The walnuts were rancid. The almonds were rancid. It appeared that the staff were serving a private party on the floor below the main dining room. The server repeatedly left the table before we had finished answering her question. We were able to flag down a server to request coffee only after we had nearly finished dessert. Despite clearly asking for a refill of caffeinated coffee, the server brought decaf. She spoke in a curt manner in response to a polite request to take away the decaf and provide a refill of caffeinated coffee. The server barely responded in a perfunctory way when thanked for the correct refill of caffeinated coffee. The bill suggested an 18% gratuity be paid for this “service.” While we understand that SARS-COV2-COVID-19 has made it difficult to find staffing, there are many measures that could be taken to prevent similar experiences for future patrons.More

For such a famous location I expected a better food selection and disappointed in only one (house) wine offered. Not very good either. A wedding was going on in an open attached room and very loud and disruptive.More

Do not waste your money ....a lot cash for two glasses of champagne and a couple of desserts.I actual wrote to the Thayer two and a half weeks ago with my comments and have yet to hear from anyone..Sysco must have provided most of the...food....cold, tasteless, chewy chicken, rubbery egg dish, spare ribs my dog would enjoy if I had a dog..... please make plans for some where else....More

This restaurant is in the Historic Thayer Hotel so it is interesting as a piece of history, but having eaten here several times while a hotel guest in the past 4 years I must say it is unimpressive. The service has consistently been slow and...inattentive, so cannot be blamed on Covid. The food is decent and the deserts good when there is a buffet, but again, the historic atmosphere and the convenience are the main draw. This will likely be our last visit as the food quality and service just don’t justify the price.More

We went on the first day of their operation in MacArthur's which was dedicated to Mother's Day on both the Saturday before and the Sunday of the holiday. The tables were laid out with empty tables or just floor space for social distancing because of...Covid. The staff was great and wore masks. The variety of Brunch items was voluminous with a great variety from super fresh and juicy shrimp to the wonderful salads and breads. There was an omelet station as well as breakfast eggs (particularly tasty as scrambled) with wonderful breakfast potatoes. They had several salads and breads, including croissants. For carving stations they had tenderloin, chicken and I believe ham. Delicious meats but the problem was they were cold. Nothing worse than a cold breakfast dish when you expect a warm plate. This is probably the only negative we experienced. mimosa's were exceptionally good - too good - twytb gohd Well worth our 1 1/2hr drive from NJ. The price for the brunch was $60/couple and well worth it. Especially on a clear day.More

unfortunately the menu was very limited and wine selection was also. absoluty beautiful grounds. would like to try again after this covid crapMore

Every time I visit West Point I am sure to make a reservation at the Thayer restaurant. Beautiful setting, very nice food particularly buffets, but most of all I love seeing Sandy whom I always request attends to my group. She goes out of her...way and always asks for updates on my family and my Cadet.More

I have been going for years to West Point with my company. I always look forward to seeing Sandy. She is always smiling and is just so pleasant to be around. I feel to lucky and blessed to have her available to wait on us....She is the BEST and I hope that she will be there a long time. You are so lucky to have her!!!! Can't wait to see her again!
