| - My family has been eating at this buffet for years and they have, like the other local buffets have their ups and downs over the years. I remember when only a few months ago one would be waiting an hour or more in line on a Friday or Saturday night before reaching the cashier, then an additional 20-30 wait to get seated. Last night (Friday) my wife and I thought we hit our own mega lottery when we saw no line to wait in. We soon found out why.
For the admission cost, using our gaming card, of 2 adults @ $13.99, a minor @ $13.99 and a child @ $6.99 we paid about $49 + added tip.
Unfortunately pre-tipping is a double edged sword. Sometimes your server is more motivated to proved better service because they see you gave them great tip or they figure, mehhh, they got your $ so I don't care at this point. Well, ours was in the second category..what a slug. We had to ask for our frigging silverware. Asked for extra napkins, and no, that does not mean just 1 each for the kids. Drink refills, empty plate takeaways, don't get me started.
The food selection was abysmal! The crab legs were removed from the buffet and replaced with a made to order bananas foster/cherries jubilee section. (This is not mentioned on their website incidentally). The self peel shrimp that shared the crab leg section has moved over to where the sushi was offered near the salad bar. Yup, you guessed it...no more sushi offerings.
Let's see what else did they cheapen out on which is selected in their lower buffet price? Oh yeah, they offer meatballs in their Italian section, but no pasta for them, yup, there's no pasta offerings at all. C'mon folks, pasta is a cheap, buffet fill the masses up cheap category. I fact, the only noodle type offering they had was chow mein.
My kids were disappointed as one of their all time faces at this buffet was the coconut shrimp, which was no longer offered.
The guy at the carving station was obviously in a pissed off mood the night we were there: he was literally dropping/throwing the meat on the plates anywhere.
The positives? Hmmm???? The cabbage rolls were good, the carved beef, (when you recovered from your plate almost tipping over from the asshole chef flopping the meat onto it), the yams, the shrimp, the lemon chicken. You get the point.
So I guess, we won't be returning to this buffet anytime soon. For the same price, one is better off going to GVR;'s buffet that has a much wider election that is a whole lot tastier and better wait staff too.
