When I walked in a bad smell hit me in the face. The food was bland and bad. The bar was empty with little to select from.Not worth the money.

The place looks very dark inside and is not very clean. The lights above the tables are dirty, the decor is not appealing. My husband had the fish and it had no taste and I had the shrimps a no taste either. The other food in the Buffett was good. The server was nice but overall I’m not sure we will be going back, it was our first time there.

8/24/23We saw good reviews and wonderful pictures on DoorDash so we decided to go to the restaurant. Big mistake.When you order through DoorDash you can order specific items to be delivered or to be picked up. When you go into the restaurant you can ONLY get the buffet.Dirty, run down, mediocre to just plain bad food.

Terrible place. Went to eat there with my family one night most things were rotten. All of the fruits were brown and rotten. Salad bar the lettuce was all brown and filled with water. Some of the food tasted rotten. Told someone all they said was nothing they can do about it. Everyone of my family members were vomiting in the parking lot. Over priced for a rotten buffet. I was amazed how they thought that was all okay. Never ever will be back.

It was the most nastiest food ever! What a waste of my date night money! The food looked like it had been there all day. Not one thing was put out fresh while we were there. Oh, we were the only people there also that should have made us turn around and go to Golden Corral instead! Will never return.

Poor quality food, roaches all over the floor. Service was just okay. Dirty plates everywhere. Hostess was extremely rude and didn't care to help or service us. Was rude about us using coupons THEY approved for $10 off $20. My family of 20 will not return ever again and we've eaten there for a decade after okay service, subpar food and extremely unhelpful hostess. They've gone DOWNHILL. She went out of her way to not let us use their approved coupons. Our meal would've been $30 cheaper for a party of 20+ all separate bills per smaller family at different tables.Live and learn. El MejiCAN'T anymore.Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly. Charged overweight kids for adult prices.
