It was actually pretty good! All you can eat buffet is very different from traditional dining, let alone fine dining. Food was plentiful, hot, and continuously restocked. Our beverage glasses were quickly and frequently refilled, with a smile, and plates were also frequently cleared. A very good choice for the experience we sought and expected!
