Terrace Buffet

Buffet has experienced increasing mediocrity recently. Desserts remain good. I didn't particularly enjoy anything except an egg roll, chicken parmesan, and their desserts during this visit. The meats were dry and tough and many dishes were just bland. Second photo is all I ate of a very full plate of food. Unfortunately too many poor experiences from this buffet will prevent me from returning again. UPDATE: Buffet is now pretty much inedible, the only things that were decent on the entire buffet were the ice cream and the jalapeno corn muffins. Everything else was dry, old, stale, and otherwise very unappetizing. There was no asian food anymore, either (not sure if it was an anomaly or a permanent thing). Not even worth $3, let alone $15.99. I will be using my food comps at Argosy's other restaurants (although they are usually inconveniently closed when I visit during the weekdays). HIGHLY disappointed!

The place looks great, and the food as well, but if you're vegan, forgot about it, almost nothing to eat. I accidentally tasted the baked beans, thinking it's 'clean', just to find out there's bacon in it as well. Blaaahhh. There was meat in almost everything, definitely need to offer more options for vegetarians and vegans.

This is the second visit to terrace buffet and both were enjoyable meals. The choices are about as close to endless as a buffet can offer. Meaning that although I've only been there twice, it seems like there were enough changes that it felt like a different buffet. The atmosphere was calm and attractive furnishings made it a very pleasant setting. The staff was prompt and accommodating. We'll return for sure.

Fridays at the Terrace Buffet they have prime rib steak and lobster. You receive a ticket for the lobster that allows you to get one lobster per person. The prime rib was really tasty and tender. The lobster is whole and requires a little work to break down and remove the meat inside. The rest of the buffet has the usual favorites.. fried shrimp, salmon, Asian cuisine, pizza, potroast, potatoes, salad, and deserts etc.

If the allowed partial ratings I would have gone with a 3.5 rating. First, it is popular so be prepared to wait. We love crab and that is the most popular night. The staff is friendly and hard working. The food they had was cooked well and was flavorful. The food seemed fresh and we all enjoyed what food they had. The crab was tasty. The crawfish tasty (it needed refreshing more often), and the prime rib was tasty. The deserts, well those we had, were amazing. The tables were clean and well spaced. At $40 a person though there was a huge gap. There sat as idle as a building in a dying town, and as sad looking, the sushi station. I had been there before when the sushi station was open and loved that station best. We were very disappointed. Give us back our sushi and I will give you back your star.
