An okay place to grab a bite if you’re staying at the Quality Inn next door but there are better options locally. Great service though and the buffet looks to be a deal. However, the food I had was a little underwhelming.

Nothing fresh about this buffet!! Salad shredded lettuce brown and wilted. Popcorn chicken was hard as a rock! Maybe yesterday left overs. Maybe ordering off the menu maybe fresh!

Excellent service. Our server was super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We did have a question and one of the owners came out to show us what kind of chilis they put on a burger. The other owner stopped by our table to greet us. There was no problem with asking for extra cheese on my patty melt and I was able to substitute a salad instead of fries with no extra charge. We were even able to make our salad ourselves from the salad bar; although she offered to make it for us. My burger was delicious. Great family owned restaurant.

This is an older / dated restaurant with a large, diverse menu and an all you can eat buffet ($16 as if Feb 2026). The owner / manager was extremely friendly and seemed to know many of the local patrons. Overall, it was a good value. The buffet we had a good variety, but overall quality was just average. That said, they had tons of food available so no need to feel limited. Give this place a try and help them stay in business.

I walked into 7:30 on Saturday night to a decimated buffet. Chicken and empty pans was all there was. Staff seemed disorganized and confused. We walked out. We trusted the reviews and drove across town to get here. Wish we wouldn’t have.

Ate here today after visiting the tucson gem show, ordered the burger and fries. The fries i didn’t eat they were soaked in grease and not even cooked fully. The burger was good, my daughters high chair was disgustingly filthy i couldn’t help but notice it seemed a bit clustered/crowded and dirty.

We were in town for the gem show and we stopped here since it was in our hotel parking lot. This place was a Tucson gem itself! We heard they had great catfish and shrimp and when we arrived there was none. We told the manager and he went out of his way to personally bring us a huge plate of each that were extremely fresh! They were large long shrimp, something we never get even at seafood restaurants when ordering fried shrimp. Then he brought us two boxes, two pieces of cheesecake to go and tossed in two apples and two bananas! We will definitely be eating here again and look forward to returning to Tucson just for this establishment! Thank you so much for making this such a great experience for us!

Food is not very good and the prices are high. I ordered the cheesesteak sandwich and it tasted like dog food. Literally the frozen microwave sandwiches from the supermarket are better than this. I've had other things here that are mediocre in quality but there are better options - even Denny's is much better. I'd go to waffle house instead.
