    Perhaps my expectations were high but the service was extremely slow. I could only conclude they were short staffed. Good came out very slow. They didn’t have the fish of the day which happens, and also one side was out of stock. Food did taste great and fresh. Server was very nice but food just took too long to come out and we didn’t see our sever very often

    They offered brunch for 200 seating but didn’t tell us they stop bringing items out at 230. They ran out of multiple things and only offered a free dessert to make up for it. Buffet workers spoke very little English and were rude. Very disappointed for the price of the buffet.

    Overall it was a good experience. However, my husband was served his food at least 10-12 minutes ahead of the rest of the table; there were 5 of us. This was not the fault of the server but the kitchen. He felt uncomfortable eating ahead of us but we urged him as he had a hot meal. What made this worse, is that we celebrated his birthday and he was left eating alone. I was very unhappy. They brought us complimentary dessert - fine - but this sort of thing shouldn't happen. Left me feeling I'm not sure when I'll return here.
