- April 6, 2024Rating 1.0Right during the noon hour the buffet looked as if the place was going out of business. What scraps of food were offered on the buffet looked old and leftover from the night before. And is there a reason why there weren’t any chicken breasts offered? For the cost to the consumer to the offerings this buffet had, there are better places to dine.

- December 27, 2023Rating 5.0great food fully stocked and all hot
- December 27, 2023Rating 2.0I will start out by saying the staff I encountered were friendly. I was not asked when I came in if there was anything specific I would like to order or have on the buffet. It was a busier night then usual however food was not being refilled timely. The few pieces of chicken that were out when we arrived appeared to have been out for a while. The only restocked it once in the over hour we were there. The chocolate pudding on the buffet had a weird taste (lemony) and when we tried the ice cream all 3 flavors tasted like sour milk was used to make it. We were not able to tell anyone as we didn't see any workers out when we went to leave. Very disappointed in this visit as it is not typical of our other visits her prior. Considering finding a new location to visit in hopes the food is better quality and kept filled.
- December 21, 2023Rating 4.0Customer service was good . Food was great . The floor under the booth I set in was very dirty and had food under it . Luckily I sat by myself and no one stepped in the food under the table .
- December 8, 2023Rating 5.0Nothing fell short of where it ought to be. Very complete correctness and friendly staffers.
I especially like the salad bar, with pickled herring and sliced beets, chopped eggs, peas, and all the salad items and dressing. Several pizzas were on the buffet. Hot bar has stuffing, potatoes, chicken, etc. - November 29, 2023Rating 5.0Great service and food.
