This Lake Park staple has been serving all you can eat home style food for the past 35 years. The owner who is Greek used to be the chef for Holiday House, a chain of now closed buffet restaurants that started in Deland in the 1950's. When Holiday House closed Spiros Lorenjatos opened the Carving Station Buffet We went for a drive along the beach on Saturday and ended up in this area around dinner time so we decided to stop in. I had passed it many times before and was always curious to try it. The inside is quaint and reminds you of vintage Florida with the map placemats and turquoise yellow color scheme. As soon as we entered we were invited to help ourselves to the fresh salad bar that included fresh and crisp vegetables, fruit, and cold salads like coleslaw and macaroni salad. In this area there were also two kinds of soup. When we sat down they brought out warm complimentary garlic bread dripping in butter. It was so good we ordered another loaf. Dinner is all you care to eat of carved meat and hot and cold dishes. During our visit there were carving leg of lamb, ham, turkey, and roast beef. There was also jerk chicken, Chicken Francese, spaghetti, pulled pork, baked tilapia, shepherd's pie, macaroni and cheese, rice, green beans, corn, beans, collared greens, carrots, sweet potatoes, cabbage. stuffing, and more. The food isn't fancy, think along the lines of what your American grandmother would make for a holiday dinner but everything I tried was good. Our server was Kathleen Mei who was so sweet and attentive. She was a highlight of the visit. Drinks are included with the buffet price of $18.69 for dinner. The included desserts were a rice pudding, Jello with fruit, and an apple salad. For an additional $5 you can get a massive slice of one of their house baked cakes. It was tempting but we were really full at that point so we stuck to the refreshing jello and fruit. It is sad that this kind of buffet has faded out of the Florida's culinary landscape. You are much more likely to find and all you can eat Chinese buffet. If you miss going to Morrison's and Piicadilly for comfort food, this restaurant evokes the same kind of vibe. They are also open 365 days a year. How many places can say that?

Not everyone is into buffets, but if you're into good home-cooked, all you can eat food, The Carving Station is a great place to go if you're in the Palm Beach Gardens, North Palm Beach, Jupiter area. Old-school salad bar with all the sides, delicious soup, plenty of vegetables and a plethora of meats to choose from, including beef, lamb, schnitzel, chicken, turkey and more! Did I mention dessert?!

Visited this establishment today with my family including my 89 year old grandma. I was truly appalled by the service. The manager was very rude and disrespectful. There was a mix up and our number was called prematurely to enter the restaurant and enjoy the buffet. We were then told we needed to go outside and wait. Once we finally made it inside I noticed that there were flies circling around the food area - gross! And to top it off, the food was luke warm. Also there are rat trap outside. This definitely seems to be some sort of health code violation. I will not be returning.

9.2/10 This South Florida carving station buffet hits perfectly -- juicy roast beef and turkey carved fresh, tender inside with that golden edge. The staff serve with care, portions are generous, and the flavor feels homemade but upscale. Warm lighting and tropical charm make it feel like vacation dining done right.

Local favorite, fresh hot food items. Buffet includes salad bar and soups. Good selection of salad items, was clean, salad was fresh no issues. Homemade soups. The beef barley and chicken noodle god stuff Some of the items for lunch, included different types of chicken, fried, baked, jerked and chicken Frances's, fav. There's a fish item, carved ham, beef and turkey and side items mashed potatoes, Mac and Cheese, veggies and more. good home cooked food at a good value. You can get some nice desserts at additional price. Staff are friendly and helpful.

They did a fantastic job with the decor and lighting as well, as I always feel comfortable and unhurried here. The food is excellent. We enjoyed a brick chicken and fish of the day entree on our last visit, proceeded by a handful of appetizers (try the ahi tuna cones) and followed with dessert (Mississippi mud pie was phenomenal),

It quickly became clear why the drinks receive high praise! They were indeed delightful and well crafted. However, my experience with the food left much to be desired. We ordered the Brussels sprouts, which were topped with a creamy sauce. Unfortunately, the dish did not meet expectations, falling short in flavor and presentation. I would rate them a mere two out of ten. Additionally, we tried the oysters, which were disappointingly bland. Even with various toppings, they lacked the fresh vibrant taste one hopes for when enjoying oysters. Regrettably, both dishes missed the mark for me so I decided not to order more food and go somewhere else. On a positive note, our server was exceptional friendly, attentive, and accommodating, which helped enhance our overall experience. The restaurant's ambiance was mature and inviting and its location is indeed impressive. Despite the high ratings and popularity, I found the food lacking, which makes me hesitant to return. While I appreciate the quality of the drinks and the warmth of the service, the culinary offerings did not live up to the hype considering the basic dishes I ordered. Go for drinks only!

I had a wood-fired pizza from the specials menu which was delicious and perfectly cooked They also have a great wine list and a solid cocktail menu, so there are plenty of options no matter what you're in the mood for. We sat at the bar, and our bartender, I believe his name was Chase, was friendly, knowledgeable, and had the typical chill attitude you'd expect from a local bar. Great atmosphere, great food, great drinks, great service, and excellent value. I'd definitely come back the next time I'm in West Palm Beach.

The cocktails were amazing (the one with Desert pear and compari - i dont remember the name - was exceptional). We got the grilled carrots appetizer and clams. Those. Carrots. Perfectly charred, incredibly delish. The clams more than made up for the subpar mussels I had elsewhere the night before, too. My husband got the BBQ pizza and was very happy - both for dinner, and for the next day's lunch. I got the chicken parm, and also had plenty for a large lunch the next day. (and the green beans that came with were also JUST the way i like them - not overcooked, garlicy, and delish). Zero complaints. We won't be able to navigate a second visit this trip, but would 100% put it on our to-dos the next time.
