I travel to eat at this place at least once a yr... I love it!! I usually go during off peak season and the food a service is always great.. I did make the mistake of going this year in the middle of peak season, it was so packed you could hardly move around and the lines to get anything was extremely long. And it was super hot in the seating area.. but this does not stop me from going back, I'll just wait till the crowd dies down in September!

This place will satisfy any seafood craving. 130 different menu items all you can eat for $38. The pros are lots of food, friendly staff, a fully stocked bar and they get you seated reasonably quickly. The only cons are the cost and during tourist season, the place is extremely crowded. You will wait in line for crab legs and prime rib (the most popular items). And you literally have to weave through throngs of people every time you go up to one of the many buffet tables for more food. But overall I find the place worth it. ... read more

Always been a favorite! Have eaten there going on 25 years. You'd think they'd offer discounts for frequent eaters! lol!

It was pretty good. Big place so the wait was only 10-15 minutes! I don’t eat seafood and there were still plenty of choices for me. The hush puppies were wicked good!

We will NEVER go back! They charged my 6 MONTH old child who slept in her car seat in the floor! She did NOT even get a seat! She slept the whole time and they charged her the child’s buffet price! This place is WAY over priced and the food is not that good anyway! We ended up speaking to a manager to get our money back. It was ridiculous!
