Fried Chicken, steak, shrimp and mashed potatoes.
Robert A.

We weren't sure what we wanted to eat so we decided to give this buffet a try. As soon as we walked in we were greeted and taken to a booth. The inside is set up like most buffet places. Plenty of seating and lots of food to choose from. I will say that I was very impressed with the food selections. Some of the vegetables and desserts were not the greatest tasting but overall I was pleased with what they had to offer. The best part of our experience was the service. Our waiter was phenomenal. He was constantly checking on us and we greatly appreciate that. The prices for lunch/ dinner on the weekend are around $17 a person. Pretty good value for the amount of food options in my opinion. I would definitely go back.

Roach or other type of insect on left side of tongs.

Very disappointed because the food is awesome when it is clean and not being walked over with insects. I came in this afternoon, around 12:30 pm and I found a roach crawling through the potatoes on my way back to my seat. This was my first plate and I put it down on the table without eating and left the restaurant, after alerting the servers at the door.

food taste like budussyyy!! was not enjoyable!! employees were stank!! fish was uncooked!! poop/mold in the walls and smeared everywhere in the bathroom 0/10 dinner!! #gross!!

Good food great service!

Our bartender/server was Lashone and she was funny, fast and friendly! She was pouring drinks for the ENTIRE restaurant and didn't miss a beat!! The breakfast menu is small but everything sounded fantastic. I chose the Steak Tacos; my husband chose the brie and bacon frittata (added by the chef since the quiche was sold out. Steak tacos were delicious (see pic). Menu said they had steak, cheesy scrambled eggs, tomato salsa, breakfast potatoes and cilantro. I didn't see or taste any potatoes, but the tacos were still delicious! I'd only recommend draining the salsa through a sieve because of the excess juice affecting the integrity of the tortilla. My husband's frittata was awful. The eggs were dry; he compared them to "eggs at the bottom of the warming tray at a cheap breakfast buffet." The chef also served a side salad alongside. My husband asked about subbing potatoes and Ms. Lashone made it happen. She was the star of our brunch: drinks were delicious, the conversational quips were quick and funny. She was attentive without being intrusive and made sure we felt welcomed and taken care of. 5 stars for her and my food; 1 for the frittata. I don't want to average it and tank the rating. We'll be back soon to see Lashone!

The wings are fabulous any sauce you choose will be great. The setting is awesome with some 80's music I. The background and live music on Thursday, tonight was Ramona Ramirez (she was fabulous). The bar tenders and servers are always friendly and provide excellent service. Tonight my bartenders were Annie and Bella, two of the best in Old Town Fredericksburg! If you are in the Fredericksburg area, I highly recommend you swing in and give them a try!!

Free street parking nearby was easy to find. If you have a private event, you go to the back of the restaurant at the right and down some stairs. The private event room felt very bachelor den-like in a good way. There were leather seats surrounding the room and a tiny bar with a bartender to make us drinks. We were able to order whatever drink we wanted on the menu. For food, they brought trays out buffet style. We tried a variety of things. The star of the show was the Brussels sprouts. They were cooked to perfection and had a great sweet sauce. I enjoyed the salad too. They also brought out wings, mini burgers, mini fried chicken sandwiches, and tuna. Some were overcooked, but the flavor was nice. The seating was a bit awkward for a group our size in the private room, but we made it work. It was nice how casual it was.

We were seated right away on their patio, which was very cozy with heaters and fire pits. The menu sounded great and they had a lot of featured brunch items that were a little fancier. I went with the sausage, egg, and cheese on English muffin with a side of cheesy grits. Our food came out pretty quickly, but one of the sandwiches was wrong, which they fixed right away. The sandwich was basic but tasty, and adding hot sauce made it even better. I loved the cheesy grits - they were more coarse than other grits I've had but I still really liked them. I had a few bites of Nate's sandwich, the New Jersey sunrise (Taylor ham, home fries, two fried eggs and American cheese), which was very hearty and tasty. Service was decent, they were pretty busy so we did have to ask for a few things, but we had a nice time. I'm putting this spot on my list of places to revisit when we're back in the area.

There is a friendly stray cat that comes around and it's pet friendly outside. It was nice and quiet and a nice day to sit outside. I ordered a cup of coffee and the tater tot bowl. The tater tot bowl was good and had chunks of sliced Chorizo. I did wish it had more Chorizo and I think the ground Chorizo might be better with the dish but overall good. My friends enjoyed their meal as well and they do also have cocktails.

I had a bite and confirmed it. I had the leg of lamb in a saffron and garbanzo bean sauce. The sauce was absolutely delicious. The sauce itself would make a wonderful soup dish. The leg of lamb, unfortunately, was rather bland in taste. It was okay, but didn't convey the flavor of the sauce. Still, I will go back because other items on the menu looked so good. Next time I will try the rooftop bar.

The brunch menu has a nice assortment of delicious items to choose from. They also have a full brunch cocktail list (Bloody Mary, Mimosa, etc). I was interested in a Bloody Mary, but service seemed to be a little amiss while we were there as the bartender wasn't there and the server wasn't able to tell us about the Bloody Mary (do they make their own mix, description, etc), so we just opted for water with brunch. The brunch items we got were all amazing! Their sausage gravy is made with chorizo, which adds a very nice, smokey touch to the typical biscuits and gravy and it came out with a pair of perfectly poached eggs. Their burger was beautiful and perfectly made and the beef was a very tasty, nice blend. The buns was incredible! Their fried chicken sandwich was excellent as well. Great batter, tender and moist chicken, and the toppings were great too. French fries were piping hot and flavorful too. So, the food was great, but the service was amiss. Would we return? Most definitely! I just mark up these services issues to having freshly opened for the day and maybe being a little short staffed. Hopefully the next visit would hit on all cylinders.
