- MFMargo Ferguson2 days ago1.0Great food, costs way too much. I only get and eat a plate full. Then 2 pieces of dessert. It cost to much for the little bit I eat and I only drink water. So, we go about once a year.
- AFAshley Fox2 days ago3.0My kids would give this place 5 stars. It's their favorite place to eat. For adults, some food options are really good, others are just ok. Most of the staff are pretty friendly and even though it is a buffet, they bring your favorite pizza to your table to dole out slices before putting it on the buffet table, which is a nice touch.
- AFAlbert Fraelich4 days ago5.0Pricey but great pizza.. I'll go again for sure.
- HJHolly JonesJan 15, 20265.0The salad bar was one of the best I ever had. I couldn’t get a pic of it since it was that good I couldn’t wait to eat it. So many great options couldn’t help myself to some of each. The staff is friendly and curtsy. My son had a great birthday dinner there.
- JHJeffrey HaneyJan 7, 20262.0Ordered 8 pieces of chicken online for carry-out. Chicken was over-cooked, soggy and greasy. Looked like for carry-out they used left over chicken from the buffet and re-fried it to heat it up. Was searching for a good place for chicken carry out and this was not the place. Very dissapointed.
