But I was hungry for a steak, and I ordered a filet, cooked med. What I received was some cut that had gristle in it. Very hard to cut, and it was undercooked rare. The server offered to send it back to cook it a little longer. But why would I want the same unknown cut of steak cook tougher. I declined. I ate the sides paid for a 36.00 steak. On our way out, I spoke to a manager. His response was, basically the same. Not I'm sorry, it was "we could have cooked it a little longer" This was a horrible cut of meat, definitely not a filet. Unfortunately this is our last time we will eat at this place of business and with the attitude I will never recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Around a year ago you could get a platter for ONE person for $10-$20 depending on what you ordered. Now everything is $20+ with some menu items increasing in price by $10 or more. Not to include the undisclosed card fee that is at least 5%. $65 to feed 2 people is absurd when said 2 people can spend $30 at a buffet and eat all they want. 0/10, all around terrible establishmen.

I usually visit them once a week. Can't recommend them enough!

My family and I came in for lunch over the weekend. We were able to call ahead and let them know…read moreour larger party was on the way. When we arrived we were sat very quickly. My sister frequents this location. The server recognized her and already knew what she wanted. As for the rest of us we were able to get drinks and get our order in very quickly. The food didn't take long at all for us to receive. We had 9 of us so that alone was impressive. All of our meals came out together, correct, and hot. I got the machaca chimichanga. It was very good. I was hungry so i couldn't tell you what everyone else ate. I dug in so quickly I almost forgot to take a picture of my food. My husband got the steak ranchero. I didn't hear anyone complain except for my daughter that complained her quesadilla was stuffed too full of stuff. Not really a complaint if you ask me. Their salsa was also very good. It had good flavor but wasn't spicy. They do have a spicy version if you ask. Personally I like to mix the two together. I'm from AZ where I'm able to get amazing Mexican food. I've found I generally don't prefer Mexican food on this side of the United States so I was extremely happy to find a local location with great food. The staff was all very pleasant. A gentleman came over and gave all the kids candy from his candy basket he was carrying around. I believe he was the owner. When we were finished our bills arrived quickly and correct. On our way out as we were waiting for the remainder of our party the candy man came over dancing. He grabbed my daughter's hand and started dancing with her. Everyone was so nice. We will definitely return.

After four plates of sushi, we had to explain to him why singing the 80s hit "I think Im turning Japanese, I think Im turning Japanese, I really think so" to the Chinese waitress was questionably inappropriate.

Seemed odd because we hadn't had real heavy rains that would cause that. Come to find out it was a lie being peddled because the Health department had shut them down to rodent infestation and scoring less than 60 on their health score. This doesn't surprise me seeing how dirty the eating area, tables, buffet and plates.... pretty much everywhere inside is disgusting. I cannot imagine how filthy the kitchen area must of been. And it would definitely explain how I hadn't been sick for well over a decade and I started eating there recently and shortly after I got the sickest I've ever been. It's quite unfortunate too because I like Chinese buffets but now I'll have to drive to Anniston if I want a good buffet. I'd definitely steer clear of this place, unless you dont mind getting sick, eating old food in unsanitary conditions.
