    The food was outstanding. The music was off the chain! I did not appreciate the waitress. She was not ready, and nor did the other waiter respond. He saw us requesting assistance but acted as if he did not see us. She did not check on us enough for an 18% per person gratuity. It was not appropriate for a buffett.

    I loved everything about it except the music was too loud. There was music playing within the restaurant and then the band started and it was even louder. Its hard to talk to my friends at my table when I feel like I have to yell. Wonderful service and great food.

    This was our first time at this establishment. The food was amazing! Service was good. We had an early dinner so it was pretty quiet. They were playing some nice 80’s-90’s music which was good. We will definitely be going back.

    If you want honesty we were super underwhelmed. Drinks AND food were subpar at best. Food and drinks reminded me of fast food chain restaurants.. So disappointing because I was looking forward to a great dinner and was excited to go there.
