This was the first time we stopped in for the Thursday Wing Night. We got their before the rush, and the cashier, mentioned it had been slow all day. I went to the table my husband picked, I look down at see trash on the floor in two sections of the Dining Area where customers sit, had food & cup lid on the floor & other trash. ▪︎So I think to myself, if they were so Slow why is the Dining Floor so Dirty. ▪︎ I got some of the Different Wings: they were all cold. (not a one was "Hot" in Temperature. ▪︎ I am sorry this location dropped the ball Big Time. ▪︎Then I also got 2 chicken legs, they were hot "Temperature", I bite into them, and both of them: not cooked right, they were "Both Raw" in the middle, so of course (I spit back into a napkin). My husband got lucky and his Chicken Breast was hot & cooked correctly. No potato wedges or waffle fries. The stuffing & gravy were good also. ▪︎When we got there the Pizza buffet area was "Already Empty", they didn't have desert pizza or chocolate chip cookie either. The Salad Bar (was Out of lettuce- iceberg kind, and bearly had any of the other kind). Grated cheese & mushrooms were both almost out. No boiled Eggs (Use to have them). ▪︎They now had spot that had Coleslaw & Macaroni salad. (I tried the Macaroni salad it was good). I got the French dressing, it was like Watered Down (So sad)........ ▪︎They didn't even have "Lids" that Fit the containers where the coleslaw & macaroni on the salad bar. ▪︎No apples or oranges on the salad bar either. They never kept the desert Bar filled the entire time we were there.. ▪︎It was sad, folks pay good money to eat out, and provide a Meal for their families, and Get this Kind Bad of Service. ▪︎The Best Thing they had was a "Rootbeer Float" that I made up myself. Thank goodness there Soft Serve Ice Cream machine was working ☆☆☆. ▪︎I don't know if this location is under new management or they have No staff, This Location Needs some Major Help, So Beware.▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎ ▪︎Hope management looks at...

Went there this evening around 430pm. We've been maybe a dozen or so times over the years and tonight was the worst experience ever. Wife paid and the female manager didn't listen and charged as all the adults when she had clearly stated several were children. My wife noticed the mistake after she had begun eating. Went to the female manager she had paid for a partial refund. Understanding that they were extremely busy my wife patiently and politely asked for the error to be fixed. Instead of simply apologizing and taking care of the issue the woman manager decided to lecture my wife about the manager's own mistake for simply not listening. Then throughout our hour and a half there this manger is clearly annoyed with anything and everything.

Went in5 the arcade with the kids and spent money and won a considerable amount of tickets. Ask 4 separate times over 45 mins for one person to come back to exchange for prizes. Finally after patiently waiting the same manager from earlier comes back clearly annoyed simply to be there. I gave her three cards with over 2000 tickets but somehow only one card can be used at a time. Magically calculators don't exist. To spare her and us of her clear attitude problem I quickly got the kids their prizes to minimize any further interaction with this clearly unhappy manger.

I get it but if you can't keep it together just enough to do your basic job without being obviously annoyed the entire time then I suggest moving into a new career field. Absolutely last time anyone from our family will be going there. Unfortunate too because it used to be...

The food here is much better than typical buffets.

Plenty of parking, but no dedicated motorcycle parking. Handicapped accessible entrance.

Kind of like Golden Corral, you pay, then go find a table, then go get your food and drink.

Excellent choices, not just pizza. They have fried chicken and it's actually rather delicious. But they also have mashed potatoes, corn, a full salad bar with lots of dressings and toppings, a decent selection of pizzas, fresh bread sticks, dessert pizzas, and soft serve ice cream. If you leave this place hungry, it's your own fault. It's a little pricier than other pizza buffets, but worth it.

Place was nice and clean. Rest room was clean. They've got a game room so you can play some games if you so desire.

They don't have wait staff, but they were doing a fantastic job of picking up our dirty dishes so that they didn't stack up on our table.

We went kind of early on a Wednesday, so it wasn't overly busy. It might be different on a Friday or Saturday night.

They offer military discount and have a loyalty rewards program. The rewards program, in my opinion, needs to be beefed up. I have to spend a lot of cash to get a $5 reward compared to other loyalty programs.

2024-10-23 Update: Not much has changed. Food is still pretty good and the selection is as well.

2025-03-05 Update: Seems like they've raised their prices. With 10% tip it was over $85 for 4 adults.

2025-09-20 Update: They no longer have tea. With 10% tip it was now over $80...

Didn't feel like making lunch so I headed here by myself around 1:30 since it's close and I've never been. Lunch with a drink was just over $10. I had to ask if I should seat myself but the hostess/cashier did let me know I could request a pizza I didn't see. There are a few different rooms and areas and the place had a few other late lunchers, but plenty of tables. I got my own drink and then checked out the offerings. The buffet is small and no-frills. The pizza station had about 6-8 pies most were plain cheese and some strange combinations with what appeared to be a pan style and thin crust. The fried chicken station had biscuits, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, carrots, corn and green beans. The salad bar was sad. Basic and not many selections. Only ranch dressing with some packets of Ken's on the side. The pizza was fine, not really good but it was okay. The chicken was too salty for me but the sides were okay. The biscuits were buttery and really good. I did notice the Christian pop when I went to wash my hands. I hadn't noticed it at first, but once I did, it was just weird. Not off putting but odd. Glad I checked it out. In theory it sounded good but won't be back. Do have to say service was quick. Plates were cleared each time I got up and I never saw the person.

I received raw chicken, and when I told the waitress, she said "hummm" and walked away. The cook came out and tried to tell me, there is no way he can catch all of the chicken, sometimes 10 min in broster just isn't enough and people get raw chicken, sometimes the chickens are just so big. I asked why he did not cut open the biggest piece like I would do at home, and he replied that he is working 3 stations and he just does not have time. No apologies, refund or anything. The lettuce was wilted and brown, asked twice to get some green lettuce, and was told when they could they would. An hour later, 3 of us removed the lettuce, put it on plates on our table, and then they replaced the lettuce :( I get every business is short-handed, but raw chicken is NOT exceptable!

We arrived at 10:06 AM, just a few minutes after they opened at 10:00. When we got there, they told us they were still working on the pizzas and that they would be ready “soon.” We waited patiently, then asked if we could get some fried chicken — only to be told we would have to wait again for it to be cooked. Later, we asked about dessert, and they said it would be ready soon as well. After waiting for almost an hour, we were told they had forgotten to even put the dessert in the oven. To make things worse, the lady at the register told us they weren’t cooking much because there were only a few customers — but if that’s the case, why charge us full price? Overall, a very disappointing and frustrating experience.
