Ponto Lago,

7100 Aviara Resort Drive, Carlsbad, CA 92011

"Ponto Lago is located within the Park Hyatt Aviara, and we had one of the most amazing breakfast buffets ever here. The spread and quality of the food are very high-end and outstanding. The dining room is beautiful and the service is fantastic. We have five more days of breakfast here and look forward to every single upcoming occasion. This is one of our top breakfast buffet experiences of all time!"

"So good! Came here for Christmas dinner with family and everything was fantastic. Best dirty martini I have had in a while and all of the food was delicious. Amazing service"

"Breakfast was delicious! Love the shredded pork egg Benedict with jalapeno and asparagus. It was cooked to perfection!!! The raspberry cronut was so crispy, sweet and heavenly!!! Rosa was the sweetest server and very passionate about food! Love her!!! Highly recommend for breakfast!"

"It is one of the most amazing restaurants I have been to in a long time. It is delicious and entertaining as the kitchen is fully open to see from all areas of the restaurant. It looks like an iron chef show right in front of you live. Filled with culinary masters of their craft. The food was extraordinary, and the staff honestly matched any fine dining experience you will have anywhere in the world. Jacob the the manager for all three installations, was impeccable his knowledge and service was top notch. The waiters and staff made this visit so memorable that it will stay with me my whole life. This is a special treat, and if you are local or traveling to Carlsbad, stop by and treat yourself and your family to some of the best food and service in all of San Diego."

"We came for the Sunday Brunch Buffet. The sides were the stars here. The main dishes were good but not great. The paella needed more flavor, but had good amounts of seafood in it. I wish they also offered some traditional breakfast meats like bacon and sausage. I understand that may not fit the Mexican theme, but that’s ok. Loved the variety of cheeses, but there were absolutely no crackers. Only small blue corn tostadas. They also had fresh lox, but no bagels to put them on. The ceviche was excellent. The pastries were very good. The churros could have been fresher, but still tasty. They have a margarita sampler which is great deal when compared to the cost of a single margarita. Our favorite was the strawberry and the regular. The facility is top notch and located in a beautiful resort. Valet parking only, but the restaurant can validate your parking for you."
