    We were celebrating a 50th birthday. The buffet was hot, fresh and delicious. The staff were welcoming and our server was great! They even sang Happy Birthday and brought out dessert with a candle on top.

    Some of the items were not available. The buffet itself was mediocre at best in the process of eating I became slightly ill that also could have been the sour Coors light draft I had. Did not finish 1 plate or 4 ribs that were brought. Not for me but check out yourself. Be prepared to drop an easy C note on what I think is a Big Waste of Cash.

    Way too expensive. We came here after viewing a menu online where more options were available. Only to walk in and be limited to an overpriced buffet. No actual menu existed, so an update to your online menu on Google is needed. Tex mex pasta was hard and dried up, noodles were stuck together. 1st round of brisket was 75% fat, and the second was beyond dry. I was expecting a lot more options for the price, experience here was extremely disappointing. Even overheard another couple discussing poor pricing before leaving as well. Definitely won't be returning. Do not recommend.
