    After a visit to the nearby Elliot museum we came over here for an early dinner. Reviews were a mixed bag but that is kind of par for the course with this type of dining establishment. Some people love an inexpensive all you can eat buffet while for other people it is a hard pass. Located in the Marketplace Square shopping plaza, the parking lot was already full by the time we arrived. This place is huge so we had no problem getting a table. The restaurant looks older with tile floors and a lot of dark wood but it was clean except for the restroom which was a disaster. Seating is in rooms off to the side from the main buffet room. As soon as we arrived our server promptly took our drink order and they were very good about coming by often to clean the table take dirty dishes away. In the buffet room there is a large cold bar with seafood, salads, and desserts. They also offer hibachi and sushi. In the center of the room was four hot stations with the type of dishes you normally find in this kind of restaurant, sweet and sour chicken, beef and broccoli, Crab Rangoon, noodles, fried rice, ribs both pork and beef, fish, green beans, dumplings, sea food boil, salt and pepper shrimp, coconut shrimp, roasted potatoes, etc. I really enjoyed the peel and shrimp which were jumbo sized. The fresh fruit was also a great ending to the meal. They also had a coffee mousse cake and cheesecake that were nice along with ice cream and a few other pastries. I appreciate that the buffet was refilled promptly and the food was fresh. It was $16.99 for a dinner buffet which I think it is a great value if just for the seafood alone. Of course we left overstuffed. I would consider eating here again if I am in the area.

    Good variety of food, lots of shrimp, mussels and crawfish; for $13.99 you can have a nice lunch and finish it with delicious fresh fruits, jello, puddings, pastries and ice creams. Our waitress was very nice and friendly, so that's a plus for them too. I would come back in the future!

And so glad we did! We had the pleasure of Christine serving us. She was very helpful when it came to making my fresh margarita and ordering my Cobb salad. I was starving so she went out of her way to bring me a fresh hot basket of rolls to tide me over until my salad was ready. TY!!! Sitting at the bar is always more entertaining because you get to chat with the other "barflies," and this bar was no different. It was so relaxing chilling with a view of the beach and chatting with some very interesting people. Definitely one of my new favorite places here!

Not sure how-they must be Floridians who are used to the heat and humidity. Not us. We were the only ones that sat in the air conditioning. Chicken salad on a toast with fries- excellent. I ordered the Chicken parmigiana. Instead of the chicken on angel hair I had it on a Kaiser roll. Very good. The service was not great. I was supposed to get fries. Instead I got green beans. Realized my sister in law did not get her vegetable. Rather a side salad.

Once seated, two of us enjoyed the escargot, which was just perfect. A shrimp cocktail was also very good and fresh. We all enjoyed the huge salad bar for dinner, which never disappoints! Very fresh and plenty of delicious veggies and salads to make it your own. The location being right on the intercostal makes the seaside ambiance so enjoyable. Stop and give it a try if you haven't already!

The prices are reasonable, although it can get a little expensive if you order several drinks. I ordered a Bloody Mary, and they offer two sizes.

The food and the service were both very good, and our waitress was amazing. I would probably enjoy eating inside more than outside because the restaurant is right on a busy street and the traffic can be heavy.

Great food, great service, and truly a pleasurable experience. It's also great for kids and super dog-friendly!
