This was a bad experience for me and my family. The 3 of us ordered buffets and I asked the cashier how much the buffet was and she told me she didn't know. She didn't care to ask anyone either. We finally found that out once we checked out and it printed on the receipt. There was rotten food on the salad bar and several containers that were almost completely empty.

They have gone to a thin crust buffet style format similar to Mr. Gatti's, and the quality has suffered. Part of the problem with the Palestine, TX location is the water tasted absolutely HORRIBLE. There was a strong taste of chlorine to it, and this affected the ice, the drinks, and maybe anything that used water. We went to a nearby town and a lady we talked to said the water was so bad in that area that she had to buy bottled water. I wish Mazzio's had lived up to my memories,...
