I tried the cod, the chopped steak And charro beans. The cod was cold, the steak was luke warm And beans had a salty weird after taste. New hot pan of cheese enchiladas were brought out, I got 3 and could only eat 2 1/4. Too much veleta like cheese. 2nd piece of cod just as cold. Pineapple chunks and Watermelon little colder than Luke warm. The entire time there were flys landing on the buffet. (Cold and hot). There were NOT a lot of flys but enough to make it noticeable. After more people came in (closer to noon) the fly swatter was put away. Upon entering, it was noticed that Christian music was being played through the sound system. One employee stood out who's back of shirt read "Made in Hell". Really? Why allow him to walk around swatting flys in a restaurant playing music that honors Jesus wearing that shirt?? Even though my stomach got full, I probably won't be back. Had to ask for my drink that I paid for even after having water brought to my table. When the Waitress refilled my drink the 2nd time it was Not what I was drinking. Not sure warmers and coolers are working or if they are even warmers or coolers.

I understand we may all have some bad days and we may not all know how to separate our personal from our professional job, but you actively chose to work at this job and yet have an attitude towards the reason companies even make your paychecks come alive, the people!

The Shrimp Boil, fried oysters, and Oysters Rockefeller were good but could use a bit more attention to seasoning. The oysters Rockefeller did try to get a smoke flavor but fell short on the size of the oysters. Fried shrimp and chicken were on the dry side. I also tried the ribeye. The ribeye 1/2" cut (?) was a bit on the chewy side and a little dry. Seafood gumbo did not impress me much. Visually, I could see it needed spices. I added some of the seafood boil sauce and it tasted better Corn on the Cobb was GREAT, so was the boiled crab legs were also GREAT! Lots of patrons on Sunday. I think this place has a lot of potential and if they work on a unique seasoning, they will be a great place to dine! The service was good.

We were noticed multiple times but not acknowledged, and no one told us something simple like "feel free to sit anywhere," so we ended up standing there for over five minutes before finally being seated. Once we sat down, things improved. In my opinion, the food could have been hotter it was more warm than hot. That said, the flavors were really good. And the star of the show: their naan bread WOW. Seriously, I could just eat that and be completely happy. It's made in-house, and you can definitely tell. Absolutely delicious. Prices are very affordable, which is a big plus. Despite the slow start, I would come back again.

I was happy to receive two takeout dinners from the Sunday night special of this restaurant…read moretonight. The combination of the Butter Chicken and the Tika Marsala, with extra Basmati rice and Nan bread, was a welcome sight with stunning visual textures of soft tomato soup with cheese bearing resemblance to red acrylic paint. As I spread the savory mix on the Nan, I was loving the flowing aromas of Indian style spices emanating from the large bowl I was using. The taste that followed was a burst of flavors I had not experienced in a few years, when I was practicing Indian-style recipes I found in the culinary magazine "Saveur". The chicken in both dishes had a firmer texture with a delightful chew where I could almost taste the muscle fibers individually or together. It was well-cooked in the flowing red sauce it came with, but nobody could describe it as "falling off the bone" (what some people may mistakenly describe good BBQ chicken as). The heat came on strongly in these paired dishes, so I would suggest that anyone indulging in this kind of cuisine drink cold Ginger Ale with it. Half my family is from Mexico, so me encanta la comida picante, but the other side is from New York, so the cold and sweet ginger element would help put out that fire. I read that this restaurant has a buffet, so I am planning to visit with my family and put a dent in their delicious spread.

Two dishes in particular, I find to be excellent here and far above most Chinese buffets: the Broccoli Beef and the Green Beans in Fermented Black Bean Paste. Both are the best I've ever had at a buffet. The beef is very tender, not mealy like most and has a nice flavor. The broccoli is not over cooked but tender crisp perfectly. There are a lot of dishes that are very similar in taste and texture so I skip them. But they have a nice variety of fried items, steamed dumplings, 5 or 6 soups of which I like several. Their chicken wings are a nice surprise item as are the breaded cream cheese filled jalapeños. For those that like a Mongolian Grill, they have that available too. The sushi is plentiful but mostly bland variety's. I usually skip it. All in all it's a great buffet and reasonably priced.

There are large screen TVs on 2 of the walls and you can actually hear the program that is airing. I liked that the audio was not muted and that the program was kind of interesting (no Fox News!) I didn't spend much time looking at the menu so I cannot comment on prices. I did see that the selection included the usual dishes. I had the buffet instead. The buffet had an interesting mix of Mexican and American dishes: chalupas (meatless), 2 kinds of fajitas, sliced smoked sausage with sauteed onions and peppers, meatloaf, picadillo con papas, instant mashed potatoes, peas & carrots, onion rings (similar to those that come in a red & yellow bag from the freezer case), quesadillas, chiles relleños (filled with picadillo con papas), cheese enchiladas, Mexican rice, 2 types of pinto beans (a la charra and refritos), 2 types of caldo (chicken and beef), liver & onions and a cold area with fresh fruit and basic salad ingredients. The waiter will also bring you hot tortillas if you like, offering your choice of flour, corn or a mix. I tried a variety of dishes and was surprised that almost all lacked salt and seasoning. The food looked fresh but...had so little flavor. I'm not usually one to salt my food at the table, either at home or at a restaurant. But I had to salt my food here (except for the meatloaf) because it otherwise was bland. Also, I could not spot any ketchup. Some people like it with their onion rings and meatloaf, perhaps other food too. The caldo was oily and without flavor. If you want fresh lime wedges (which really are standard at most local Tex-Mex restaurants) you must ask for them, they are not available even with the fruit at the salad bar. The service was good. The tableware given by the waiter consisted of a single fork rolled inside a paper napkin, no knife or spoon. If you need them, you get your own from the holder near the buffet. The dishes are the same boring tan-colored melamine that so many places use. Payment is at the end of your meal, at a station near the door. One lunch buffet and one drink, plus tax cost almost $10.00. So will I go back? Nope, not when Taco Fiesta is just across the street. If you wonder how business compares between the two neighboring restaurants, consider this: Taco Fiesta is so busy at lunchtime that they have a man driving a golf cart to ferry customers to and from their cars in the church parking lot nearby. Next time I'm in the neighborhood, I won't hesitate to dine at Taco Fiesta.
