I guess it's better than continental (there were eggs, bacon, etc.), but the restaurant is clearly primarily a la carte which is not offered to elites. I wouldn't choose breakfast as a benefit here again.
I never took the PLT option breakfast there so I can’t speak to the quality of it in the past (I’ve been staying there since shortly after they renovated, usually at least a couple times/year) and tend to head out elsewhere for breakfast. But the few times I’ve had breakfast at Surf Lanai, there was a very nice buffet offering which also included the option to order an a la cartel item from the menu. The tower lounge breakfast has, since it opened, been a bit in terms of offerings IMO. Sorry to hear this.
