Went there on a Friday for lunch. Was shocked when the bill was $29.99/person. Food was ok but not worth that much. They seem to have raised there prices significantly as it wasn’t nearly that much when I ate there a few months ago. The hamburgers looked old and extremely dry as did the French fries. A lot of the other food looked mushy. On a positive note, the shrimp ceviche was delicious and the place was bright and clean. Our waitress was very nice and attentive but I won’t be eating there again. Way too expensive for the food they offer.

Went for a decent buffet, got mush! And very over priced. Would have been a good price if the food was cooked right but.... Definitely not! We really wanted crab legs. Weren't even offered! We were the only table the whole time during peak dinner! Hoping I don't feel any sicker tonight too! Avoid this place!

So we went for an early dinner on Thursday night. It was a total disaster! The food was old, mushy and not even warm. This place is struggling and the price is $29.99 per person and on weekends it’s $ 39.99! Crab legs were an additional 19.99 a pound!! The shrimp was extremely overcooked with absolutely no flavor to them at all. I’ve never seen crawfish any dryer! This place is a health issue waiting to happen! Btw we went on a Thursday night and there were only 3 tables all night!

When we drove up, I was cautious that this would really encompass all the name suggested. However, this restaurant was impeccably clean. The authentic culture including music and employees was an experience. The food was fresh, well prepared and tasty. They offer fresh oysters and seafood, fresh salad materials and plump servings of fruit and desserts, Mexican options and unique dishes. Very impressive.

This place is fire! ?? Delicious food, strong drinks, and the grill guy makes some amazing tacos!! I've never seen a buffet like this before, this is my new favorite. Everyone was very happy with it!

my wife and I ate there ,we got there at 4:00pm for dinner,and I mean everything was old, meats were dry and tough we ask the waitress can they bring fresh food out but instead they just kept steering the old food I paid $56 for iced tea basically, never again.

Great staff. Very kind and generous. Very clean place. But sadly the food is lacking extremely for the price of $29.99 per person. Buffet food is cold, hard, been out for more than a couple hours or worse. Rice was hard and tasted microwaved and the options are few as well. Had some nuggets to just get a base line on simple food and they were cold as well. Only upside is the taco and quesadilla grill. Cook was nice and food was good when it was cooked fresh. Had the shrimp tacos. But unfortunately it's just not worth it for a grill.

Amazing staff, great food. I came here with a large group and the employees never fail to impress. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone passing through or local in the area

Went here for lunch on a Saturday. Was not busy, and waiter was attentive, but the food was not even comparable to other Mexican restaurants in the area. There was not a lot to choose from on the buffet, and all the shrimp dishes were way overcooked. The buffet price was $24.99 per person plus the costs of drinks, tip. Lunch for 2 of us was $64.99. Definitely not worth it, definitely not going back.
