This is an excellent place to eat. Plenty of options on the buffet and I really liked the wrestling memorabilia on the walls.

Great little hole in the wall diner. We chose the buffet and for the most part we were not disappointed. The pork needs some help to make it not tough but the meatloaf was great.

Service was good. Food was dry and old. Not very warm and not much to pick from. Salad bar was good.

We went on a Friday evening for the ayce crab legs with buffet for $45. It was worth the cost. The buffet isn't huge, and honestly I went to eat crab so I didn't sample much of the buffet food. I did have salad, which was fresh and good. I noticed there were fried oysters, frog legs, fried fish, and shrimp on the buffet, as well as a few regular "american" choices, like fried chicken.

Now, back to the main event, the crab. If you ordered the ayce crab, it was served in a bucket at the table. We were asked by the server how much we wanted at a time, which was a good way to do it. I ordered two claws per serving, which kept it warm while I was eating. The crab was good and not waterlogged, which has been my experience at a few other less expensive places.

Kudos to the wait-staff. They checked on us frequently but not intrusively, and kept the crab coming at a very good pace.

The atmosphere is a bit like a warehouse, but it was clean and pleasant enough. I'm sure we'll go back sometime.
