Everytime I visit me and my husband goes here. In March, it was 46.99 when we went September 24th only 6 months later, they went up more. 49.99. When we first started going, it was like 36.99. I told my hubby if they go up anymore we will have to find another crab spot which will be easy at the beach.

Wow! The exact everything my family and I were craving. SO GOOD! And so many choices.

It’s a pretty place inside, but a lot of the food wasn’t fresh. Chicken Alfredo and other pastas looked like they’d been sitting there for days. Our waitress was super sweet, but they didn’t check our drinks often. Way too expensive even for a buffet, when the food wasn’t that good. Oh and they automatically add gratuity for parties over 8. Even if you split the bill. They add 15% to each bill. FYI. Manager was a jerk, asked him questions about the bill and he thought it was funny instead answering and explaining our questions.. then he stands in the kitchen scrolling his phone. (Have the pic also) They do have a good selection of food I’ll say. And the desserts were good!

Catt Polk | Oct 1, 2018
AMIR G | Oct 1, 2018

It is a buffett style dining, not impressive at all. My advice, save money and go somewhere else for less and better. Adult fee is $34.99, youth (3 to 12 years of age) is $16.99. Above 12 is considered adult... Only here, I tell ya.
