I have wanted to go to Eat'n Park for their midnight buffet for the last four years and boy was I disappointed.
We arrive around 12:15am and are seated promptly. The server comes over, brings water, and states she will be back soon. Another 10 minutes and we order the buffet and I add a waffle with sides of whipped cream and strawberries (I was watching a lot of Parks and Rec and I had a craving).
5-10 minutes later we ask the waitress if we can take the lids off of the buffet that is still half full and not uncovered yet. She states she is unsure, but will find out for us. At around 12:30, my friend gets up and starts taking kids off of the buffet. Other customers and myself get up and start filling our plates.
The buffet looks okay. I spot waffles, which I did not know they offered on the buffet, and I'm a little annoyed I ordered a side waffle without the waitress telling me that they were already on the buffet. Everything I get from the buffet is mediocre. I can't even decide if I'm mad about he waffles because they were the best thing I had all night.
It takes us longer than usual to get our check and we're not sure why. The server seems a little frazzled, but it's not that busy and there doesn't seem to be a lot going on at 1am. I make a comment about not realizing the buffet already serves waffles when I ordered, and she states that the buffet didn't have waffles with strawberries and whipped cream and I pay the extra $7 the waffle. I feel disappointed, but also somewhat uncomfortable as I speed walk out of the Eat'n Park and the whole awkward experience.
