    There is an abundance of food, lobster tails were tough one night, very sweet and tender the second day. Most of the food is tasty. Desserts are not appealing, everything in a mini jar. The only worthwhile dessert was the ice cream. Service is spotty, staff is lovely and friendly but not all that visible. When someone finally arrives and you ask for some, you just wait! And wait!

    It’s like a Golden Corral but for seafood. Too many seating spots and hoards of people. Food was edible but nothing memorable. We will NEVER go back.

    Buffet food - the lobster was good but rest pretty subpar. Have to be better options on the island. Service was between slow and nonexistent.

    We were disappointed with the lobster, which we had been most excited for. Unfortunately, it was tough, chewy, and overcooked. The seafood buffet was limited to just the grill station, with no variety at other stations. It would have been nice to see seafood options at the hot station or even a seafood soup. The grilled seafood lacked flavor and was quite one-dimensional. While the service was excellent, it sometimes felt a bit overwhelming, as the constant clearing of plates interrupted the flow of a relaxing dinner.
