"We arrived around 5pm there was 2 booths seated were asked if we had reservations? Every other table. Booth, was available. We were taken to the bar. That was a no then we were seated by the worst seat in the restaurant by the back door and the dance floor and the kitchen area while there again was empty tables and booths. The restaurant was colder inside then outside had to ask our waitress if the heat was working she agreed it was extremely cold in there for this particular day. She asked the owner to put the heat up for us but wasn't successful during our whole visit. I ordered the French onion soup, my husband got the onion ring and nachos as appetizers. The French onion soup is not home made it is made from a bullion type base and it was so concentrated that it actually irritated my throat I couldn't eat it as you could imagine. Let the waitress know and she brought it back to them and informed me that yes they agreed it had to be fixed(watered down) . I ordered the honey salmon with potato and green beans my husband ordered the Philly cheesesteak sandwich with fries. I recieved the wrong order I got tuna with rice pilaf and cole slaw. And the tuna was cold thank god it wasn't mine . When we recieved our food it at the best was Luke warm. The baked potato was the best thing of this whole visit. It truly is sad because in this area we really need a good place to go and eat and I'm not sure if it was a bad night but , I can say the young ladies who helped us were at least very pleasant and had a smile the whole time we were there. I can say this won't be a place for my first picks. We did contact the server and the people while we were there so it wasn't like we didn't try to speak with someone. Our waitress also left and we were notified during the time she had to leave. Not trying to do what you are saying just speaking what exactly happened. Vegetarian options: Did not see any"

"We go here for dinner a couple times a month. They seat you as soon as you walk in the door and immediately take your drink order. When you get back from filling your plate at the buffet, your drink is already there. They have plenty of people working there and you never have to wait for anything. In fact, sometimes it feels like they are hovering perhaps a bit too much. Almost as soon as you finish your plate, a girl will swoop over and remove it before you have even set your fork down. Lol. They have free drink refills and are frequently asking you if you would like more. The food itself is generally pretty good. Sometimes it's hit or miss and you feel like you probably shouldn't have come that particular day. But that's not often and 90% of the time its good. There are 4 separate buffet areas. One has cold foods. You will find fresh fruit, peel and eat shrimp, some salads, sushi, jello, etc. I usually will get their cucumber and tomato salad and some watermelon or orange slices from here. I tried one of their pasta salads once and didn't care for it. Very blah. There are 2 buffet areas with hot food. You will find one item on a carving board in the center of one. It usually has something like sliced ham or salmon on it. I have never tried either. My favorites are the spinach which is topped with melted cheese, sweet and sour chicken, stuffed clams, stuffed shrimp (very bread y but delish , Brussels sprouts, green beans, Lo mein noodles, fried rice, fried cheese wontons, fried donuts. I also pick the broccoli out of the beef or chicken with broccoli as I enjoy their broccoli. My son always gets their mac n cheese, pizza and crab legs. The 4th buffet is desserts. They have small sweets cut and presented in little paper liners that make it easy to grab what you want. I have never tried them but people do seem to enjoy their selection. Additionally, they have an ice cream freezer where you can scoop out your own hard ice cream. A lot of people enjoy that, as well. They have toppings like sprinkles that you can add. As in the service at your table, there are women hovering around the buffets. Always stirring, refilling, wiping, etc. I know it's a nice thing, but can sometimes be annoying. One older woman yelled at me once. Apparently I put a spoon back in the wrong place. Haha. I personally do not eat their soups. I tried the wonton soup twice (figured I'd give it a second chance . Both times the wontons were very mushy and unappealing, as though they had been floating in the sort of nasty looking broth for way too long. And as much as they are tending to the hot foods on the 2 center buffets, the soups are a different story. I have eaten there quite a lot over the past few years and I have never once seen anyone check on or replace the soups. Perhaps I'm just not there at the right time. But anyway, I avoid them. As for the atmosphere, it does seem a bit dark. It can also get stuffy. A/C would help a lot some days. The salt shakers are rather gross. It looks like a lot of them have old food stuck on top where perhaps kids have held them too close to their food when salting. The waitresses do seem to wipe down the tables well. The chairs can be a little rickety so if you are heavy set like me, choose carefully. : The outside can make the place seem a little iffy, too. A lot of times you will see someone from the kitchen out there smoking, next to the kitchen door which is propped open. Not a big deal, but you have the impression that there is a good chance they don't wash their hands when they go back inside. There is also an area with, well it's hard to describe, chicken wire, brush, etc. I'm not sure what that area is for and I probably don't want to know. The last time I was there, I noticed there is a garden planted on the other side. It looks nice and well cared for. I didn't get a good look but it seemed like it was perhaps vegetables and herbs. I'm not sure. They seem busy a lot of times. You see a lot of familiar faces there (locals and also truck drivers passing through. If you go semi frequently, you learn what is good and what you probably want to avoid. We keep going back because the foods that they do well are generally worth the trip. The price for dinner is around $10 per person for the buffet and fountain soda or iced tea (all you can eat/drink on both . The lunch buffet is a bit less in price. At the end of the meal they bring you fortune cookies with your bill."
