| - Eat 'n Park is passable for certain things. The hamburgers are satisfactory and although the salad bar will never be compared to the extraordinary Souplantation/ Sweet Tomatoes, it is not bad. My wife and I were desperate for food after a late Pittsburgh Pirates game, which left us few choices, and we made the mistake of coming here and ordering the $9.99 Midnight buffet, which was lousy. The eggs, fried potatoes, hash browns, onions, and mushrooms drowning in liquid, were tasteless. Pancakes that are stuck to the container in which they are placed are not likely to please and the soggy waffle my wife had was not enjoyable either. If I had been told that the corned beef hash was canned dog food or that it was made with Spam, it would have been believable as there was no hint of beef as it is known to most people. The quality of the food at Golden Corral is spectacular in comparison to Eat 'n Park and the value is infinitely better, $8.99 for a breakfast buffet that includes an extensive salad selection and so much more well-prepared, well-seasoned, tasty items. Breakfast foods are now served there throughout lunch and dinner. I do not plan to order the Eat 'n Park Midnight Buffet or the breakfast buffet ever again. If I do, I will deserve my fate. I continue to have difficulty understanding why Eat 'n Park is such a spectacular success, particularly given that at its other divisions, including Six Penn Kitchen, it has demonstrated that it knows how to prepare appealing cuisine. I would have been much better off at Primanti Brothers, where one can secure a late night feast: half pound cheeseburger with all the trimmings and which includes enough of the area's best french fries for an army, for a mere $8.19. This Eat 'n Park location has been nicely remodeled. It is now more spacious, attractive, and comfortable. There is not much more that can be said for it than that.
