  • An important life lesson was learned by us last night: never eat at an empty buffet. Also, it's time to cutoff my husband from the restaurant choices. I should have known better when we pulled up in the Ferrari of Minivans - the parking lot was relatively empty at 6pm on a weeknight. My next hint should have been the overwhelming barnyard smell upon walking in. Let's get to the plusses - because there aren't many and it won't take much time. Plus 1: service was great - the lady there was very friendly and quick to fill our waters. Plus 2: the place is huge and can accommodate large groups. Plus 3: the bathrooms were pretty clean and modern except for something I will highlight below. Plus 4: large selection of food... except... Now for the minuses... First off, the place is downright filthy. Filthy, filthy, filthy!!! The floors looked like someone rebuilt a Chevy Big Block on them... years and years (decades?) of ground in dirt that had never - EVER been cleaned. Yuck. The food, while plentiful, was not very fresh, save for a few items. I tried the pepper salt blue crab and it was mushy... same with the regular crab legs and a couple of the boiled shrimp. The friend shrimp was great, however. the Chinese short ribs... I bet these are simply awesome right out of the cooker, but these ones had clearly been sitting around way too long. Same with the bourbon chicken and the chicken on a stick. A lot of hte cooked veggies were either soft and mushy or rubbery. The noodles seemed OK. My husband loved the fried chicken, but he was lucky enough to get some right after it was brought out. I had a bite and agree - it was very good fresh. A lot of the items, especially fruits and vegetables - seemed right out of a can. Disappointing. The hot butter (for seafood) was of the "I Can't Believe It's Not" variety. Blech! The sushi... oh my God!! If there's ONE THING a restaurant should not put out for any length of time, it's sushi... for the love of God!!! Not sure why I tried it, but I had one bite... even the texture of the rice was enough to turn my stomach!! The desserts - nearly everything was stale. Overall, disappointing, other than the service. It's too bad - a nice Chinese buffet would be an awesome thing to have close at hand.
