- KNKasen NealNov 10, 20255.0We made a stack of 40 plates
- SMsteve van meterNov 4, 20255.0Wonderful employees. Friendly and kept our empty plates picked up and offered assistance as needed
- KSKimberly SimonOct 12, 20251.0We used to love this restaurant and now it has just gone downhill. Hardly any food on the buffet as the kids working in this store just could not keep up. The plates on every table I looked at were not being cleared, including ours. The salad bar was pitiful. We have gone here for 10 years and we will not be going back. The little bit of chicken and potatoes were good. As soon as the chicken came out, it was a mad dash to get some and then it was gone.
