First off this is NOT a 5 Star restaurant, nor does it endeavor to be. My rating is in comparison to other casual buffets. \n\nI've been to more buffets then I care to admit, including many Golden Corrals while traveling around the country. \n\nHonestly, I'm not sure what all the negativity is about. The store is kept very clean, especially considering the volume of customers. We got there around 3 on a Wednesday and there were no lines, but it was already crowded inside. The food is good quality (better than many of their competitors) and there's a large variety to choose from. The Mexican and Chinese food are not their strong points, but still add to the selection. The salad and desert bars are very extensive, featuring cold shrimp, strips of steak and crumbled blue cheese and chocolate fondue, cotton candy and hand scooped ice cream, respectively.\n\nI truly think that all the bad reviews are just written by people who dislike buffets, which is fine, but that being the case why would you go there in the first place and then complain about it? If you like buffets this is one of your best bets. With the quality and selection offered it's hard to believe lunch is just over 8 bucks, which is probably why the line is often out the door. \n\nIn all fairness, there are some downsides. The crowd is a pain and doesn't exactly make for a relaxing meal, but they keep the food well stocked and the lines moving as best as they can. I'm not crazy about the buffet set up where all the food is in a row as opposed to the various scatter bars. It's not as convenient and creates line ups. I really don't care for having the drink bar at the counter before you pay. It takes longer to check out and it's tiresome waiting for the overworked staff to bring you refills. I never order a drink as it costs more and they only serve Pepsi products--ick, but we were low on water several times. \n\nIn short, it you're looking for an affordable meal with a variety large enough to please your whole family, then this is the place for you. If you want a quiet meal, with stunning ambience and gourmet food it will most likely cost you over $10.  :)
