We attended Sullivan’s Thanksgiving Buffet and had an unbelievable experience. Angie was our server and was key to our lovely dinner. She was very personable, knowledgeable, and just a joy to work with. And then there was the food . . . WOW!!! So much to choose from and absolutely delicious. Everything tasted so good together- a veritable symphony on our tastebuds! Then there was the Dessert Room. HOLY COW!!! Anything and everything you could imagine. Sooooo good! Thank you Sullivan’s and especially Angie for making our Thanksgiving dinner something absolutely wonderful to remember.

They’re still working out “bugs” with Open Table as they’ve just started using it. However, the manager was extremely accommodating and even provided a complimentary tequila/pineapple shot at the end of our meal. Food was phenomenal. Staff is courteous and attentive. Prices are reasonable for quality of food. I highly recommend for a different experience and great food.
