I am not the biggest buffet fan - I generally find 90% boring / bland at best, inedible at worst, and 10% edible, sometimes good. I despise seeing people using their hands, or children grabbing and putting back! Ew! I also like my hot food hot, not lukewarm.

However, we recently attended an engagement brunch at a small restaurant (for clarification it was a group of tables in a set aside area, but the food was the standard sunday brunch menu, along with other guests) and it was lovely! Salad and seafood bars, fresh cook to order brick oven pizza, 8 different entrees prepared by a chef as you waited (everything from gnocci to prime rib), yummy puddings, and free flowing champagne, bucks fizz and kir royals They did the full range of breakfast items as well. Really lovely food, all very fresh, very clean, I guess the patrons (well mannered) helped too. I am tempted to go again!
