This is a buffet style restaurant. They food was good. The waitress was good even though they were a little under staff. There is a salad bar, bake potatoe bar and several other stations.

Good food. Some of the table attendees are very courteous. Atmosphere is very family friendly. Consumer tip: if you are paying with a card, ask to be charged tip also so they can give you cash. Then I place my waitress' tip in her hand. I don't leave it on the table.

5/5Antoniette Neely

Today my family of 15 came here Ms. Jamie went above & beyond to make sure we didn't have to wait over an hour to be seated together. Our waitress Ms. Teresa was amazing. Great job ladies & the food was great also. Thanks for providing a wonderful first time experience. Definitely deserve 5 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 !!!

4/5Rhonda Pascual

I think that the food was okay,but there weren't enough choices and they were really slow to refill the empty buffet pans of food. Also,they need to have someone monitoring to keep people from pushing in front of others ,so they can get their food faster. I saw a woman & her Daughter rudely push their way in front of an elderly man, who'd been patiently waiting in line for his turn. I saw it happen several times and that needs to stop. Our waitress Nicki was nice and very attentive to our needs. All the staff were nice.
