   Overpriced. Also we didn’t get seated for 30 minutes after our reservation time. What is the point of a reservation then? Once again incompetent management and the customer has to suffer.

   One of our absolute favorite restaurants, the service is top notch and they truly make you feel special here but upon getting the bill, we were disappointed that they changed the price to $55 per person to $79 per person on Valentine’s Day. Our bill for two people was $200 I had water and my husband had one cocktail.

   The restaurant is beautiful. The buffet was ok. I haven’t been here for some time but I felt like there used to be more options so I felt a little slighted. They kept the meat coming when requested except I had to ask 3 times for the filet and was even told at one point they didn’t have any(miscommunication?). The atmosphere felt too much like a fast food buffet restaurant to me and that is not my vibe when I go out to eat. This was a “turn em and burn em “. Plenty of people feel differently because the place was hopping. Towards the end of the meal we definitely felt like they were rushing us. We stood up and 4 people were on the table before we had a chance to even walk away. We went to the bar and had another drink but after spending nearly $750 (including the bar) with tip for 5 people, I wouldn’t have expected to be rushed.
