| - Visited Spoonful for a Friday night seafood buffet and I have to say it was pretty good. Items on the buffet ranged from 1 star to 4 stars.
Now, once again, I'm grading on the curve, and comparing Spoonful to other Chinese food buffets, not to Michelin star restaurants - this is not premium east coast oyster bar quality seafood - but I don't think you should have trouble finding a few dishes that you really like, and easily get your money's worth.
For me, I really enjoyed their tiny grilled garlic scallops on the half shell, (which they limit the numbers of and are slow to refill) their tiny-but-tasty-and-piled-high snow crab legs, the butter sauteed shrimp, and a handful of other items, including the lobster tart, which, while not overloaded with lobster, was quite tasty and delivered a good seafood hit, and were constantly kept hot, fresh and replenished.
The place is quite attractive and nicely laid out, with a huge selection that ranged from roasted and grilled items to sushi and sashimi to custom Pad Thai stir-fry to of course the seafood, which is the star.
Throw in a great selection of fresh fruit, chocolate fountain, waffle and pancake bar, lots of gummies and candy for those with kids, and quite a wide range of pastries and cakes, including fresh homemade mini donuts, and there's a little something for everyone.
Will I visit often? Probably not.
Will I go back? Almost certainly.
