    Be careful coming here!! They charged us for a mistake in food prep, TOOK the food, and when the receipt showed up, CHARGED for the mistake! An a-la-carte selection...the service was good, but charging for mistakes, taking the food away after not even biting into it (covered in some sauce), but CHARGING for it! Just NOT the same place it used to be! Had to argue with manager to get it taken care of.

    Went here on Christmas Day. Super grateful that they were open. Staff were friendly, we got seated promptly and our server was very attentive. The place was nice and clean. Ordered a couple of appetizers and multiple entrees. The food was great, nothing to complain about at all. The grilled shrimp skewers were my personal favorite. The biscuits as always are a crowd pleaser so that was a big hit for everyone in the party.

    My husband was craving shrimp. He said let's go to Red Lobster. We have not been here in years. My thought was, "Oh noooo not Red Lobster!" Then I read the Yelp reviews and most reviews confirmed my sentiments but I decided to go because my husband really wanted to. I invited another family to join us. I figured we'd have fun company in case the experience was horrible. Wellllll I was proven wrong. My husband made reservations. We were greeted warmly and seated immediately upon our arrival. James was our server. He took awesome care of us from beginning to end. His knowledge and recommendations were spot on. He was very attentive without being intrusive. He took our drink order and was very helpful with decisions on what we were wanting to quench our thirst. Shout out to the bartender!!! Our drinks were yummy and refreshing. Soon after our drinks arrived our Red Lobster biscuits arrived. Those well known cheddar biscuits were hot and yummier than I remember! The Ceaser salads that followed were freshly made with tasty cheese and crunchy croutons. Now for the entrees: The Admirals Feast received 2 thumbs up from my husband and one of our friends. My catfish dinner with hot fresh sea salt fries was much appreciated. The Firecracker Shrimp also received rave reviews. Red Lobster you came through tonight! James and staff we appreciated your hospitality and efforts to make our dining experience awesome!!!!

    Great customer service on Friday night and was sat down right away. The server brought out biscuits and it was salty. The fried calamari was greasy and the breading came off easily, very thin breading. We ordered the Date Night feast for 2. The steak was okay not juicy even though i ordered it rare. The lobster tail was salty when dipped in the butter. Mac n cheese was salty and bacon bits. Mashed potatoes was okay and french fries. There wasn't anything special about the food, i wouldn't recommend here for seafood.

They have turned this into "table" service, rather than order at the desk. Table service is ordering via QR code though. Hubs had sesame chicken, I ordered orange chicken, and we split chicken egg rolls. I also got a mango boba tea. Portions were pretty big, so we said we would split an entree next time. I definitely would skip the egg rolls next time, the wrap was a little too thick for me and lacked flavor. I'd also skip the boba and go elsewhere for that. Service was exceptionally quick.

If you are unsure of your hot/spice tolerance, better start your order at Mild spiciness, their Medium can pack a really nice punch of spice heat and Szechuan pepper numbing.

    Overall a good experience at The Feast! Parking lot is large and entrance lines are separated by…read moreparties 4 or less and parties larger than 4 which makes it more efficient to pay. We came a few minutes before noon (their opening time) on a Sunday afternoon. I highly recommend coming a bit early because they were already letting people in and by 12:30, there was a definite line and restaurant looked full. They had an area for tables that sat around 4 people and then a different area that held larger parties. Cost is $35.99/adult with tip and drinks a part of the price. Overall a great value. I honestly expected the place to be bigger but it is a nice sized restaurant. Parts of the buffet definitely had some congestion. The food we enjoyed: the stir fried lobster, the grilled oysters, pea shoots, and sashimi were our favorites. The boba ingredients and ice cream cooler were great. The kalbi was flavorful but the meat was a bit tough. Average: shrimp cocktail, soups, and standard Chinese stir fries. Freshly made crepes only included whipped cream. Misses: dungenous crabs were dry and old, dumplings were meh, cakes were dry. We saw but didn't taste: the noodle bar, Mongolian Bbq, drink bar, shaved ice, cotton candy. Lots of choices that are beyond the "typical " Chinese buffets. Service was great. She continually came by to clear our plates. Bathrooms are a bit small for a large restaurant. We would come again but it wasn't an OMG for us. Worth trying once though.

Instead of having to commit to a single roll, I enjoyed being able to try one of everything. Now for the Minnesota nice, yet honest, part of the review: I know how tricky temperature regulation is in a buffet, so I want to give grace, but unfortunately they failed. The cold things were actually cold (yay), but of the foods I tried, the ones that were supposed to be fried, like the wontons, were soggy and "hot" foods like rice, cheese sticks, and some of the meats were cold (prime rib, pork belly). The inside does feel upscale and I can see how it would be a nice place to go with a large group or if you want to eat more clams, crab, etc this could be a great spot, but unfortunately, we will likely not be back as we found the quality of most of the foods lacking.

As a vegan-leaning pescatarian, there were plenty of options- including several tofu styles. It's all you can eat, with a plot twist- if you take food you don't ear you may end up paying extra, which makes sense. There are plenty of sauces, sides and a few desserts all included. so much to eat- bring your appetite. It's a great place for a group -and at least when we were there the birthday girl or boy gets to eat free if there are two other adults with you. Enjoyable and tasty spot for a big meal.

One of those things must change to command those prices. They need to hire servers who are honestly younger and more efficient, and sorry if that is ageist, but for their price point, I've had multiple experiences where the elderly servers never check up after food is delivered and constantly tell me about their stress and how they need to get caught up to even cash me out or get a box (no apology for not being around for over 20 minutes) and I'm there to relax, not hear about your stress. If you can't handle the amount of tables you have, let management know so they staff better or get you things or check on tables themselves, but don't dump your stress on customers. It's unprofessional at any restaurant, let alone an expensive one. The food quality has also gone down over the years, the vegetable and potato of the day yesterday was inedible, and soups and salads are add ons instead of being included like all other nice steakhouses. I just can't keep rooting for this place and spending money here because it's just not worth the price for what you get and the service is so poor. Two stars for the cute ambiance.
