The food was salty very salty. The ham was overcooked. The oyster dressing did not have oysters in it or it did not taste as if it had oysters in it. The sweet potato cake was real good! The collard greens taste like canned Glory collard greens with added onions and peppers. The Jerk cauliflower was the best part of the meal! The beef brisket and the lamb both were very salty. The fried chicken wings was not completely done.

This was my second time there, and I went for the Christmas brunch. Unfortunately, the spread, quality, and quantity wasn't a great representation of Christmas or the restaurant. They couldn't keep up with demand of certain dishes The oyster stuffing was gooey They only had 2 desserts that were dry pound cakes (no Christmas cookies or pies) NO greens or anything that resembled a southern Christmas except for Mac & Cheese (which was undesirable) and the sweet potatoes (the best thing on the table). The hostess were very nice.

1 the dessert. The Olive Oil Bundt cakes were lemon flavored, but we're also hard to cut with a fork and crumbled once cut into. The sweet potato cake was more of a spice cake with a glaze on it. Ending on a good Inote, the atmosphere and decor at Marcus Bar and Grill was such an upbeat but not overzealous vibe. I was happy to be there, and our guests vowed to return, and we will also.

Atmosphere was comfortable. Was my first time here, came for the Christmas Eve buffet and enjoyed ourselves. Service and staff was very welcoming. A little pricey for the buffet giving the amount of options but I guess the quality of the dishes made up for it. Paid $120 for 2 ppl before tax and gratuity. Will have to come in for regular service. The food was delicious enough to make me want to come back.
