   My immediate expectations were low as we were brought to a table that was dirty. The ground was visibly covered in milk and food before we even reached our table, and the table and chair were clearly dirty. No one offered to clean it off so we did it ourselves. Other than that, the service was good and the food was great.

   Prime rib roast was excellent. Had to wait for servers to bring more crab

   EXCELLENT crab buffet, plus lots of other foods to choose from. Service is always good (not great). All tables and chairs, unfortunately they don’t have booths. All in all, if you love crab this is definitely the place to go!!

   Stood in line waiting for more crab legs to come out, after waiting for about 5 minutes was told by staff that it will be about 5 minutes before more came out. I only went up once and got 2 clusters as soon as many people on line and wanted everyone to get some. Not worth the $40 this time.

   Every time I went up there I had to wait to get crab legs. Line was 10 people long. Prime rib was very good though

   You can’t be the value of all you can eat crab legs:)! Variety of foods was incredible. Food is always hot and delicious:)! The dessert selection is tremendous!! Our Waitress was very intuitive and friendly 💜

   The food was all pretty ishy, the waitress never checked on us or gave us refills and I don't feel like we got that great of a deal. We would have preferred to go to the steak house if it wasn't closed for the evening. Very disappointed mostly in the food.

   I love BBB I go every Thursday. Yes sometimes I have to wait for the crab but it is cooked to perfection. It is worth the time.

   After entering the buffet first set of people we had to wait for them to bring crab out, guessing the goal is for you to fill up on other stuff, very annoying. Worst crab buffet I have ever been at, should not have to stand in line waiting for crab for a half a hour when that is supposed to be the main event. Wait staff is great!

    Hadn’t been to seafood buffet for awhile. Very tasty even though we had to wait quite awhile for the crab to be replenished. If people would only take two or three leg sections at a time it would make it easier for everyone else instead of piling their plates so high.
