    The buffet was small but some good food there, especially the fried chicken and Mac & cheese. Service was friendly and adequate. Atmosphere is quiet.

    Sunday 11/21 around 2pm...I will never give my business here again. There is a chubby white male who says he's the manager there who is racist and very rude. He became upset with me when I ask why do I have to reach over other food to get the food item in the back. He stated that was his restaurant, and he do things how he likes. I said why are you becoming so angry he stated you and your family will never be served here and you can get out my restaurant. He kept bothering me and told me I need to be quiet. I stated to him he was rude and to not talk disrespectful to me when I'm not doing that towards him. He was very rude and I know from years of management experience a manager is supposed to be professional. They need to pull the camera and they will see how he continuously bothered me and talked to me as if I was his slave. He does not need to be a manager because he is very unpleasant, unprofessional , disrespectful and telling people that's his restaurant and he makes the rules..my family and friends have supported this restaurant for a long time and something needs to be done with his rude behavior by corporate asap..but God go him ....

    First time here. Really good experience. The atmosphere was so laid back and chill. Chicken was a little dry but the food was good. Love buffets. I’m so full I definitely got my moneys worth
