DJ's Steak and Seafood — Local services in Saraland

I got the buffet and the food was good and no problem with the waitress. The buffet set up is ridiculous I mean this place is pretty big and was packed. The buffet is about half the size it needs to be to accommodate that many people. The pans for the fried shrimp and fish as u can see in some pics is half the size of the pan with the boiled shrimp. They at least need to be as big as the boiled shrimp and that wouldn’t be adequate for the crowd. Every time I went to buffet there was no shrimp and very few pieces of fish that were cold and soggy. There’s 3 separate dining areas one of them people can see the buffet and I take it as soon as they see them put out shrimp and fish they go get it. Which doesn’t take many to empty the pans except for the cold soggy pieces that’s been in there. I don’t blame these people I blame the restaurant for not having adequate supply on buffet for crowd. I even would ask employees when will more fried fish and shrimp come out and I wouldn’t stood there and wait which is ridiculous, but they all said I’m not sure. Seems they try to get u to fill up sides and boiled shrimp which most get tired of peeling especially since about half of the ones I got wouldn’t peel good. It’s a hr drive for me and I will give them another try and this time if I have to I will ask to speak to the manager r owner and try to get seated where I can see buffet which...

Before I start this review I have to say the food was not the issue, our steaks were great and our crab legs were good. Another important thing to note is that we stopped at an ATM on the way to the restaurant and pulled $140 out of our account. This is important later.

The reason I gave this establishment a 1 star review is because of the shadiness we experienced when we went. Our bill was $104, so my husband left $120 on the table. My husband started the car, and I went to the restroom before leaving, and on my way out I’m stopped by our waitress running after me saying, “Ma’am, ma’am, you didn’t leave enough money to cover your bill!” I turn around, mortified, and she’s counting out $100 in front of my face. I (so embarrassed) call my husband out from the car, assuming my husband didn’t leave enough, even though I SAW him count $120 out. He gives her a $20. When we get to the car I ask what happened, and he shows me an empty wallet.

I don’t know if the table cleaning girl stole a $20 or if the waitress felt her tip wasn’t adequate and stole the $20, but the point is that SOMEONE lied and stole it. We won’t be back, this was a...

Ordered the seafood platter. Had them swap out the frozen crab cake for more fish, the crab claws were fried so hard you couldn't get them off to eat them, the oysters had big old pieces of shell in it and they were fried so hard you couldn't chew it if you had good teeth man. The fish and the shrimp had no flavor whatsoever except for the overpowering taste of seasoning on the breading. This is my second time trying them my first experience I ate buffet it was not impressive you could tell none of it hardly was homemade and come out of can mashed potatoes were instant powdered potatoes and pork chops fried so hard I couldn't hardly eat it actually I didn't eat it. Try it and see if you're experiences been better than mine but I gave them two chances I'm not going back. I tip my waitress good because she was really nice and it wasn't none of her fault. The lady said sorry you had a bad experience, I'll check it out but our seafood is good. , Maybe if you don't have a pallet for what taste good. If my restaurant in Rocky Creek was open on Sunday I would...
