    I walked into Feast Buffet like a man who had just cracked the code…read more Six hot bars of Asian dishes. A sushi station. A hibachi grill just sitting there like, "whenever you're ready, chef." It felt like opportunity. It felt like abundance. It felt like I was about to absolutely dominate dinner. Spoiler alert: dinner dominated me. Let's start with the obvious win. There is a ton of food here. Options everywhere. You can build Plate #1, immediately regret it, pivot to Plate #2, spiral into Plate #3, and still not repeat yourself. It's a choose-your-own-adventure... where every ending tastes the same. Because what there isn't a lot of... is flavor. Any flavor. All of the flavor took the night off. The sushi? I've had more personality from an ice cube. I genuinely sat there wondering how something involving fish, rice, and effort could land this softly. I can't believe those fish went through all that just to arrive here and... not matter. "The boldest flavor in the building... is the word 'buffet' on the sign." Sesame chicken. No taste. Lo mein. No taste. Salt and pepper chicken. Both missing. Fresh fish in sauce... just floating around like it's also confused about how it got here. It's actually impressive. This much variety, and everything somehow meets in the same place: aggressively neutral. Now... before this turns into a full takedown, let's give credit where it's due. The selection is real. If your goal is volume, congratulations, you've found your stadium. And the price? Under $20 for dinner. That's not just reasonable, that's borderline nostalgic. In a world where everything is getting more expensive, this place is out here saying, "we got you... just don't ask too many questions." So yes, you will leave full. Possibly very full. Flavor is optional, fullness is guaranteed. And then... the moment that elevated this from a meal to an experience. I get seated, glance over, and the man at the next booth is not "resting." Not "relaxing." Not "closing his eyes for a second." Head. On. Table. Asleep. Fully committed. I'm talking face-down, like the booth just told him a secret he couldn't handle. Halfway through my meal, he wakes up like it's halftime, calmly gets up, goes back to the buffet, builds another plate like nothing happened, comes back, eats... and then returns to the exact same position. Head. On. Table. Out cold. When I left? Still asleep. Same pose. Same dedication. At that point I had questions. Not about him... about the restaurant. Are we eating... or are we hibernating? Honestly, maybe they don't need more seasoning. Maybe they need a wake-up call. Or at least a two-hour parking limit and a neck pillow add-on. End of the day, the food earns one star. That's the minimum, and we've located it with confidence. But the sheer volume of options and the price drag this up to a generous two... I spent more time writing this review than they did seasoning the food! Two stars... and one of the best unintentional dinner-and-a-show experiences I've had in a long time.

    I travel a lot and rank Feast Buffet in the Asian buffet category. Service was prompt, efficient,…read morepolite and attentive. The selection was great, always fun to wander, look and choose. I enjoyed it very much

    My husband and I stopped in for lunch after touring the USS Alabama. We were told the wait would be…read more30 minutes but checked open table and could immediately get a reservation. (I recommend doing that, especially during lunch.) One of my good friends sent recommendations. My husband got the French dip. I hesitate calling it a poboy because I'm from NOLA, and outside south Louisiana, it's just a sandwich . I got the grilled shrimp lunch special with fries. Honestly, spend a little more and get the platter. I'd get them fried, but I can't have gluten. I risked cross contamination and got the fries. They were absolutely worth it. Fortunately, I didn't have a reaction. Trevor was our server, and he was excellent. You could tell he knew the regulars and locals based on how he'd approach new diners. He also gave really good recommendations. The vegetable of the day was a casserole, and Trevor told my husband that was better than the fries. My husband inhaled that casserole. If you're an Elvis fan, request to sit at the table. Overall, I'd definitely come back. For being on Open Table, just know this is a casual restaurant on the bay. Nothing frilly - just good, southern cooking. We will be back!

    This spot has a really charming atmosphere and definitely nails the "cute coastal" vibe. Service…read morewas a highlight--staff were genuinely friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from start to finish. That said, the food was a bit of a mixed experience. The chargrilled oysters unfortunately came with quite a bit of shell, which made them difficult to enjoy--though we did manage to find some actual pearl in there, so small win and fun! The grilled fish and shrimp were noticeably overcooked, and my husband's fried shrimp leaned the same way, lacking that fresh, tender bite you hope for. Sides were decent but didn't particularly stand out for my grilled dinner. Husband said slaw and hush puppies were good, my green beans were delicious. Overall, it's a lovely place with great service, but the kitchen execution didn't quite match the setting. With a few tweaks, this could easily be a standout spot.
