The Assistant Manager was very kind and helpful. Smiles and kind words from staff goes a long way even if there are other aspects not quite so good. Today the dining area was clean, the food areas were well stocked. It did take a bit of time to get more chicken on the buffet, but it sure was good! Blessings to you all!

Had to wait for a half hour before they brought more chicken out. I know they were busy but should have known that offering the free meals to veterns would mean they needed more help

I apologize for the wait you experienced and understand how important it is to have enough staff, especially on busy days like when we offer free meals to veterans.

While the gentleman who took our money was quite nice, the restaurant had many dirty tables, the pizza bar was not appealing at all (small portions of different cold pizzas put together) and we were told they were short staffed and they had a big take out order they were working on -it showed. The salad bar was good! Overall we were so disappointed.

No fresh food on the buffet at 530 pm. No chicken. Was not impressed. Second time this has happened at this location. Looks like staff tried hard but maybe understaffed. Very disappointed again.

It's usually a good place for lunch but today they must have been short handed. No one picked up empty dishes. There wasn't any fresh chicken the whole time we where there. Pizzas were unusual toppings too. Coke was good
