Just not as good as it used to be. Roast beef was burned and salty. Beef and noodles were pasty. The chicken, mashed potatoes and chicken noodles were good. But it seems like everything (including the salad) is made to fill you up fast. Difficult to feel like you got your money's worth on a buffet. I miss the days of the family style dinner when they brought bowls of food to your table.
Very good food. Super friendly and efficient staff. Our waitress was great!
Love the bakery there also.

I went a several years ago and remember loving everything. I found it good on my most recent visit, but not outstanding. I wasn't sure the chicken had seasoning.
The pie was fantastic.
Our waitress was nice but came across as really high pressure or impatient. I was trying to grasp the menu and process and she rattled things off like she was annoyed. It's expensive for basic food. The bakery was great. I regret not getting peanut butter.

The food here is seriously tasty. BEST chicken soup I ever had with outstanding broth and grt noodles. Broasted chicken juicy, roast beef and pork very tender, the only miss was the stuffed green peppers. Thick Amish noodles, mashed potatoes and dressing all good. Green beans with bacon, mac n cheese, 3 bean salad, vinegar coleslaw and excellent beets my favorites. The BBQ Mac n cheese was dry.

Wow! What an amazing place! Usually I find buffets to be subpar but this was great. Then ribs were tender - fall off the bone. The beef was also so tender and tasty. The fried chicken was the star of the show. It was crispy and delicious - some of the best I ever had. The server we had was so friendly too. I will definitely be back.

Very nice place with good food for breakfast. I was a little disappointed in the amount of fresh fruit available, but the traditional breakfast items were very good. The service staff had too many tables to cover, which made them hard to get a hold of to request refills for Help with simple tasks, which goes back to management

I do not like giving a low score for anything; however, I felt it deserved it. We were told by friends that this had a great buffet and that we needed to go. With the hype they were giving, and the price we paid, I expected a lot more buffet, better taste and no upcharge for the pies.
The chicken and steak were dry and the green beans, my favorite vegetable, was bland and not tasty. The cauliflower soup was wonderful and so was the salad and mac & cheese.
It could of been what my mind was imagining it would be like, but with other buffets that charge a lot less and their food is decent, I would of expected more from this place.
Our waitress was very nice and kind and the service she provided was excellent.
The shopping areas were OK, but not fantastic.
