Ol Times is alright, Just a little expensive for seniors even though they give a seniors discount it's not that much. Where is the post button????

The food was good. I wanted to leave a cash tip. Only had a solid$20. The woman at the cash register said she couldn't open it unless I bought something. That was frustrating.

Food was not as good as it was on previous Thanksgivings. Several food containers didn't get filled the whole time we were there. The staff was was friendly but a lot of the customers were rude.

Rating a 1 star because they can do better. I came on 11-20-2024. They had about 8 brown chewy treats on a white platter that looked somewhat like a brownie. I asked whether they are cooking brownies today. The worker said NO. Another worker asked how I was doing when I was seated again. It wasn't my waitress. I welcomed the brief conversation. The establishment wasn't super busy. I said I will have to try again another day for some brownies. Worker went beyond his duty and asked the ladies in the desert section to bake some brownies. I waited until they were baked, and cooled off. It was a LONG wait. I went over to ask for some brownies. There were 4 brown chewies left on the plate. The lady REFUSED to give me brownies. It was now 5:30 pm. She said the brownies are for TOMORROW. We all know she told a lie.

I politely went to talk with the male manager. He made an excuse that it was still hot. I told him that it wasn't and that I had waited for a long time. The manager NEVER offered any customer service. He just stood by the pork and pig feet section and resumed chatting with a male kitchen worker. The dude didn't even try to verify ANYTHING and I never got a crumb of brownies.

The pastry worker outright lied and manager outright was lazy and uncaring as sorry can get. I WANT a REFUND because my final experience was below acceptable. The waitress and guy who asked the lady to bake the brownies are TOP Notch.

Yes ...you guess right. I will never patronize this establishment again. I usually come once a week. Today was my last day. I will not PAY to be LIED to and not even get one cooked brownies after waiting an additional hour . THE MANAGER IS uncaring AND NEEDS TO FIND SOMEWHERE ELSE THAT HE CAN be where customer service does not matter. I was not loud. I didn't make a scene. I was simply treated POORLY.

I remember faces and will never patronize any establishment that hires either of the two lazy workers. I left hurt because I can't believe that I ate food in the past that was prepared by uncaring employees.

Owner: Please refund me for 1 buffet and water.

Readers: Yes, I tipped the waitress 18%
