    Good and fresh seafood. Server was slow to remove used plates; had to keep asking as the table was small for two people to hold used plates even having to stack them.

    If you want (need) a seafood buffet this is a great place to go on Sunday. Excellent service with friendly, but not intrusive, staff. The buffet itself satisfied everyone with just enough meat and vegetables to keep the non-seafood lovers happy, and the choice of desserts seem never-ending and something for everyone.

    You get a huge selection on seafood, meat, and carbs to choose from. From the food, drinks, and music, a very fun experience.

    This was my first time eating here and I enjoyed all the surf and turf they had to offer and then some! Even gave us free mimosas while we waited for our table.
