Bugs all over, food was decent, shrimp was over cooked, price was WAYYY TOO MUCH, they charge $38 for buffet + good tax + built in gratuity. I paid $54 for a buffet + soda. I know it’s at VA beach, but it was t very busy when I went, and I wonder why…

DO NOT GO HERE!!! let alone the popcorn shrimp was NOT de-veined, I noticed after taking the breading off. they automatically put a 17% tip on your bill. they’re alcoholic drinks are watering and taste spoiled. All around a scam. shouldn’t be open as a business.

Food was good but the price they charge per individual for the buffet is too much $37.00 per person. They didn't even have real crab meat at the buffet imitation crab meat only.

Over priced and the buffet was definitely not worth it very limited choices the food was bland and you could tell it was out all day, no crab legs the scallops made me ill the next morning. Also was not told the truth about how much the buffet was per person. They seemed so nice at the hostess stand and said they wouldn’t charge us for the children but added over a 25% tip on to our bill, we were stunned to learn that at the end our meal. Wasted over 150 dollars and spent was less at Oscar’s across the street and that’s an upscale restaurant. I did not read the reviews on this place before going but man oh man I wish we would have! I have no clue how they are in business. Even watched a family of 8 get up and walk out due to these issues.

People were nice but we were there for the buffet, I’m sorry, this was the worst seafood buffet I’ve ever been to everything was overcooked ribs were hard as a rock shrimp was very tough dessert not good and we were not happy about gratuity being included in our bill, that is something they should have told us… whoever is cooking does not know how to cook seafood hopefully they get it together because there’s gonna be a lot of disappointed people ?

Walked in and was welcomed at the door. Was seated outside. There were 4 of us. My boyfriend and two teenage daughters ordered the buffet. The disappointment on their faces when they returned to the table was completely disheartening. There was no crab legs, just imitation crab meat. The shrimp was over cooked and impossible to peel. They didn't touch a thing but the shrimp to peel it and once it was realized the shrimp was a let down we got up and went to talk to management about a resolution as we were not paying $37 for the buffet. We were more than happy to pay for our drinks. We didn't eat a thing, the management said they did not care. They said since we walked in past the buffet (which we didn't even look at because we were genuinely enjoying our time together) and sat down we have to pay. The female we spoke to was completely rude and hostile. She immediately said if we don't pay, they will call the police. We told them to go ahead as we had no issue paying for what we drank, and we didn't eat a thing. At this point, we told them to call, and they did. Another male manager came out and basically said the same thing. We should have noticed the few seafood items in the buffet when we passed it. We naturally assumed the buffet would offer real crab. We didn't think we needed to double-check. Our fault, I guess. The male manager said we could pay for the drinks since we didn't eat the food we didn't have to pay. For a bottle of beer and 3 cokes or bill was $20.XX, We had no issue with that. We just didn't want to eat the food. It wasn't worth the money AT ALL. We ended up going down to Fish Bones Resturant and Seafood buffet. It was $50 a person, and all three were completely happy and satisfied with their buffet. Apparently, the crab legs were 10/10, lol! Would definitely recommend spending a little more money and just going down there. This place is NOT worth the money or Hassel .

no buffet, horrible overpriced food,18% automatic gratuity, there's a reason this restaurant is rated worst of the worst they have earned it, no problem getting seated as there was only one other table in there, do yourself a favor do not waste your money

Very expensive and disgusting food, service was great.automatic 20% add on to bill regardless of party sizes. Inedible buffet, everything was really bad and I'm not a picky eater..

The review rating around 2.x means something. Quite disappointing eating here. The quality and variety leave much to be improved to match the charges.

little disappointed that there is no oysters on the menu!food is decent.
A little pricey but they definitely go out of their way tk make sure you are taken care of. I have major food allergies but love seafood and am not allergic to the seafood but pretty much everything typically put on it! They catered to my allergies and made me a seafood platter that I could eat!! My husband had the seafood bar and everything was fresh and tender! He had steamed shrimp, scallops, rice, steamed vegetables to name a few and loved all of it! He was so full that he couldn’t eat dessert.?

Worst buffet in VB. For how expensive it is per person for the buffet, the food was all old, overcooked, or bland. That spaghetti and meatballs was the worst I ever had in my life. Only things I enjoyed was the Mac n cheese and hush puppies. Definitely is not worth the money at all. You'd have to pay me to eat there next time! Besides that, there were good things about it too. The workers were all really nice and friendly! The piña colada I had was good! The restaurant looks really cool too! But yeah... it's way way way too expensive and the food is foul

Save yourself the trouble This place will ruin your vacation Way over priced for frozen food

I don’t usually do reviews but I’m going to this time for the fact that it’s our last day of vacation and my mother is up in the room upset and not feeling well after the horrible meal she received last night and no consideration from the place. My father and I had the buffet and it was pretty decent. A little overpriced. However, my mother’s food was old, dry, greasy. Yes she doesn’t like a lot of seafood but she does like flounder and that’s what she ordered. Great disappointment. When something was said to the waitress she said well I was trying to give her other suggestions since she doesn’t like a lot of seafood. She does like flounder and there is no reason for it to be dry and greasy and old. Also the help needs to be a little more friendly when doing their job. Sorry that you want to go home and I totally understand that but you are still open and you need to serve your customers with a friendly attitude.

Can't believe anyone would give this place a good review. The staff was friendly and that's the only nice thing I can say. The buffet was way overpriced the food is subpar at best I've eaten at better diners. Then on top of the $34 dollar buffet there is a food tax and they add the gratuity right in. Will never return to this place.
