Buffet was stocked well and everything was delicious. My favorites were the fried chicken, lamb chops, catfish, grits and crispy potatoes . My only suggestion would be to slightly undercook the salmon when putting it on a buffet because it will continue to cook. The salmon was very dry and underwhelming.

First time eating here with family and we were celebrating a birthday! Food was excellent—we ordered all pasta dishes minus one risotto and our garlic bread appetizer was delicious, but we were surprised by the spicy peppers lol our server Abbey was helpful with recommendations and made us feel welcome despite being clearly busy with other several tables! Would definitely revisit No.246
