Nothing but good things. We had a party of 5, everyone had a different entree and there were no complaints. Started with the biscuits as appetizers. That blueberry jam was delicious. Finished with the banana pudding…you have to get it.

First time visiting. Everything was outstanding. The meats selection brought to the table was great. Honestly I was shocked with the buffet selection… next time I might just do the buffet because of all the amazing options.

Our very first time here for a date night and it was a WONDERFUL experience! There was a small wait even though we had a reservation but not that long! From appetizers to the pizookie, everything came out fast hot and to order! Will definitely be making it a family trip next time!

The server was a jewel. There was also a young lady bringing food out that was really kind. The bartender and the gentleman on the game floor were so helpful. Now the con-most of the females had terrible demeanors. If it weren’t for the above mentioned employees I would NOT have enjoyed my time there. One server in bar area is rude every time we’ve interacted with her. I can think of 3 times right now.
