“Went on valentines day so it was expensive. For two ppl. It was 130 dollars and then they put in their own tip. The food was very limited yet it was supposed to be a buffet. The food was cold. The waitress took for ever to come to our table then forever to bring us utensils. So we had to sit there staring at our cold food get even colder, if its possible.
Other than that. WE HAD A WONDERFUL TIME.
dont go on Valentines unless they're paying. 😁“
