"Given that it's a holiday buffet, the price increased from $25.95 to $32.95 per person. I'm okay with paying more if the quality and quantity of the food match the price, but that was certainly not the case. They decided not to operate the omelette station on holidays, nor did they offer fresh waffles—both of which are popular features that were missing while the price increased. Instead, they had some pre-made, hard, and cold waffles alongside soggy, pale pancakes. A lot of the hot food was barely lukewarm or completely cold. The ham available for carving looked dry and unappetizing, while the scrambled eggs were utterly tasteless and lacked any seasoning. Overall, the food selection appeared disappointingly sparse and unattractive. Personally, I look forward to breakfast options, and I can get a much better, freshly prepared meal at Jack-in-the-Box for just $5.95 (the Country Scrambler Platter). The two men in our group, who love seafood, enjoyed the clams and Dungeness crab, but in previous years, they used to offer King Crab Legs, which are no longer available. The prime rib looked decent, but no one from our party chose to try it. It seems that the seafood and prime rib were the only items that received any attention to quality or preparation. Between the two women in our group, we only consumed about $12 worth of food. That means we essentially spent around $60 each for the two men to enjoy some clams and crab. I seriously doubt we will return. There are plenty of other dining options where $60 can provide a much nicer experience. As a follow-up to this review, I was surprised to receive a sort of apology (see below). What's interesting is that when I started checking responses to other negative reviews, it became clear that this was a generic reply, with only a few words changed each time. The apologies are just like the food: flavorless, lukewarm, insubstantial, and ultimately unsatisfying. Honestly, what's the point?"
