To say this an Italian Buffet restaurant is akin to saying that Venice is more beautiful than Florence.....it's all in the eye of the beholder.
While there are Italian dishes on the buffet (pizza, pasta, etc), this does not make it an Italian buffet restaurant. There is a variety of dishes, some appealing displayed (and tasty) and some not so appealing displayed (so I wouldn't even try them).
Service is very good....plates cleaned quickly and staff are friendly (plenty of hellos, etc.)
This place is very busy so there is an assumption that as it's a buffet, you're getting a good deal. I'd rather spend a few extra dollars and go to an authentic Italian restaurant where quality exceeds quantity.
