About The Wharf Buffet

The Wharf Buffet offers an exceptional dining experience with a wide variety of options. The crab legs are a standout, served piping hot and perfectly cooked, and the Filet Mignon is also cooked to perfection. The desserts, including banana pudding and key lime pie, are served in parfait cups and are a delightful treat. The all-you-can-eat filet and crab plus everything else make it a great value, especially for those who enjoy seafood and steak. The crab legs were great, and the rare filet was described as the best ever, with unlimited crab being worth a treat. The food quality is excellent, with great sides and the option to customize your own pasta dish. The service is friendly and attentive, with staff like Chance helping guests with crab crackers, forks, and lemons, while keeping the table clean. The atmosphere is great, and all the food, especially the fried shrimp and seafood, is very tasty. Although the salad bar options may not be extensive, the focus on steak and seafood ensures a satisfying meal for hungry diners. The line was never too long, and visitors highly recommend returning when in town.

Great food but the price is astronomical for a child to eat, we didn’t realize it until it was too late but they won’t get me again. 300$ for a family of 5 is completely ridiculous. It’s based off height and nothing to do with age.

This place is so overrated! The quality of food is very cheap. The set up of the buffet is terrible. If you go when they’re busy the buffet line is wrapped around the bathrooms and in front of the dessert table. So everyone’s trying to get into the bathroom or get dessert and you’re needing to move out of the way. Not to mention all the people standing in line just breathing on the dessert tables. Save your money and time and go to a nice set down restaurant. I don’t recommend...read full review

We were disappointed in the food and price. Kids, even 4 year olds were $50 each and adults were $70 each. No, pasta made available to us, very small selection of food. Service was not the best, and they added a 20% gratuity on the ticket, which is disappointing, because we sat without drinks, with empty glasses, for a table of 6 people. I was alone on my ticket, and it was $80 for the buffet and a tea. I do not recommend at all, and will never go back.
