    Bad
    David K.

    Definitely one of the top five worst meals I've ever eaten, in 59 years on this planet. Nothing tasted good, they couldn't even get the french fries, right. Really disgusting looking, and nothing was fresh, the fish was horrible, and edible Salad dressing was Alcoholic it was so old. Bathrooms were dingy, help was bad. I can't say enough about this place to tell you never to go there, despite any optimism or hunger. Much better off with other local options.

    One of MANY buffet lines on site.

    I never visited this place before. I saw so many reviews it almost turned me away. I decided to take the wife and kids and meet up with some friends. The place was really big, open and lots of room. The seating was a little tight. I felt like I was dining with my neighbors. However, the food.... The food was really good. Tons of selections and ~$20 per person it's not bad considering a combo at a non buffet runs around ~$15-20. I would say it's absolutely worth it. The bar also made great drinks and not many buffets locally have a bar. TLDR - Give it a try. Don't let the reviews persuade you. I will go back.

    I was surprised that the restaurant met my expectations, for a typical buffet-style restaurant. I understand that buffet-style food is not always the best quality/delicious, but I was impressed by the selection of sushi they had - definitely my favorite, especially salmon nigiris and Tamago nigiris. The rolls were filled and the person making them did not use too much rice (some buffets do so to make the customers full faster). The crawfish was average, we got a few plates of it, they kept coming out hot whenever the trays were near empty. I wish there were more sauce options for the seafood, I felt like the mussels were too bland, since the butter isn't salted. I loved the honey shrimp! There's self-serve ice cream as well as a variety of fruits and cakes. Honestly, I would come back, I think I got my money's worth for what it is (~$20 per person before tip).

    They have chinese food, sushi and raw oyster bar. They have a huge selection of chinese food and quite the selection of seafood including crab, oyster, fish, shrimp, crawfish. They also have American comfort food such as pizza, chicken nuggets, fries etc. The food was mediocre but in terms of variety, freshness and cleanliness it was great! I was surprised they refilled the trays quickly and often even though it was around 8:30 pm on a Friday night. The food was always hot and the service was excellent. The price is really reasonable, for chinese buffet plus sushi only around $16. It is customary to provide tips to the sushi and oyster bar.

    Bland food, even the heavily sauced items. This restaurant is best for people who value quantity above all else. It's a pass for me.

But the quality and service were very good, so if you're OK with spending a bit, it might be fine. Friends tell me I should have just swiped left on a dating suggestion for someone who says "the man should pay" on first date. She had picked the venue, and when we sat down immediately bought a mixed drink (before noon) and an expensive entree without consulting me. Not that I think a woman needs to consult a man, but then again I don't think a man should always be the one to pay either. Was any of that the restaurant's fault? Not exactly. But the fact that the prices seemed more than I'd ordinarily want to pay for lunch didn't help that event be successful. Or maybe it did. Maybe she is just happy with a lot of first dates where the other person buys and then, like me, doesn't ask again. Personally, I would recommend other venues for a first date. But, then again, if you're looking for something a little upscale, this might be fine. I'd compare it to the Cheesecake Factory, for example, but maybe with fewer dessert options.

It's the kind of place where you immediately feel relaxed but still excited for the meal ahead. The staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without being overbearing. As for the food, I ordered the quarter pound lobster roll, and it was absolutely outstanding. The lobster was fresh, tender, and generously portioned, with flavors that were rich yet beautifully balanced. Every bite was satisfying. Overall, this restaurant delivers on all fronts: atmosphere, service, and quality. I'd happily return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal!

Honestly very heavy and was glad I split the one size they had with a friend. It would have been too much. There was a little layer of oil on top too. The Faux Fiz mocktail I got was good. However, a lot of "spices". I ended up requesting more ginger beer and lime to cut it. That helped. But overall good quality drink. The Atlantic salmon crudo was very interesting. Nothing close to what I expected. It was gross. Really thick salmon over globs of a black garlic aioli. The ratio was so off. It was so pasty. I am shocked they haven't reviewed that item on their menu. Usually crudos are so nice and light. This was not. The wild Spanish octopus was the better of the three dishes. Just needed some more salt. Or more of the chorizo would have sufficed. I was surprised that this place was nothing like it used to be. Will not be back :(

Our waitress was pleasant and prompt throughout our dinner. On our first visit my co-diner ordered the fried scallops, and thought they were very tasty. So, on this visit we ordered: * 2 - Fried Scallop Baskets (one with regular fries, the other with sweet potato fries) * Chicken Wings Side with BBQ Sauce Our order arrived quite quickly, and I immediately sampled a sweet potato fry. Tasty! Hot, crispy, and nicely cooked. The same could be said for the regular fries. It's unfortunate so many restaurants are French fried challenged, with fries that are served too cool and limp. Kudos to Juicy Seafood for great fries. The scallops were also tasty, with or without the bread crumbs (which come off very easily). They were fresh tasting, very hot and very juicy. However, the chicken wings were not good, they were overcooked, overloaded with sauce and difficult to eat. I wouldn't recommend those.
