"This buffet has gone steadily downhill over the past several years. We went yesterday (Father's Day) for the special Father's Day brunch. We have been at least 10 times on Father's Day and it just gets progressively more disappointing. Apparently other customers feel the same way; in past years we sometimes waited 30 minutes or more just to get seated and the place was packed. This year there was no wait and the place was 2/3rd empty. Since this is a holiday buffet, the price is jacked up from 25.95 a person to 32.95. I have no problem with the price if the food quality and quantity is commensurate with the amount of money spent. Not a chance! They have decided not to run the omelette station on holidays. Apparently the fresh waffle making also. Both of these are popular stations and both are eliminated on holidays while the price goes up. There were, however, a few premade waffles (hard and cold) next to some soggy looking premade and extremely pale pancakes. A lot of the hot food was not hot, or even lukewarm. The ham they put out for carving looked dried out and horrible. The scrambled eggs were absolutely tasteless and without seasoning of any kind. The overall selection of the food seemed underwhelmingly sparse and unappealing. I myself am most interested in the breakfast selections and I can get a better breakfast, hot fresh, at Jack-in-the-Box for 5.95 (the country scrambler platter). The two men in our party are seafood lovers and they were happy with the clams and Dungeness crab. However, in years past King Crab Legs were also available and have since been eliminated. The prime rib also looked decent but no one in our party had it. It appears that the seafood and the prime rib are the only items that warranted any attention to quality or preparation. Between the 2 women in our party we ate about 12.00 worth of food. This means for the 2 men we spent about 60.00 each for them to eat clams and crab. I can't think that we will be doing this again. I can find a lot of other places where 60.00 buys a really nice dining experience! Update note on this review: I was surprised to find an apology (sort of, below). What makes this interesting is that I started looking at replies to other bad reviews and this is a canned response, with just a few words changed on each one. The apologies are just like the food: tasteless, lukewarm, unsubstantial and thoroughly unsatisfying. Really, why even bother?"
