Okay for Children: Yes, plenty of choices and prices are right
Okay for Couples: Yes, again, plenty of choices and prices are right.
Be Sure To Try:
The buffet. I think they had plenty of choices to choose from and when we went, the buffet had a special for $6.99 a person.
General Tips:
I can only speak for the breakfast and it was awesome. I recommend you sit near the buffet, so you can attack the food once they bring out new stuff.
TheMouseForLess Tips:
Check with the establishment because they always seem to have some kind of deal going on.
Extra Comment:
I have no idea why these other comments are so negative. I ate there with my girlfriend and thought it was awesome. The food was good, it was hot and plenty of great choices. I pigged out and had 5 plates. Where else could you go fill up on bacon, sausage, eggs, pancakes, waffles, french toast, ect. for this low price. I think I ate about $30 worth of meat while there. I told them I was shutting their business down. I don't know, just try it yourself and see what you think. To each their own I guess. Have fun at Disneyland!

Food: 1
Service: 1
Rate the atmosphere:
Okay for Children: No. Very unhealthy for kids.
Okay for Couples: NO! Unless you're desperate and too tired to go anywhere else, which was the case with us. But if that should happen, just go to Denny's a couple doors down.
Be Sure To Try: Most were just lousy.
General Tips: No tips. However, they did split our group of 6 into two groups, each group with different tables at different parts of the restaurant!
Extra Comment: Don't go there unless you absolutely have to. It's not worth it.

What: Buffet: Chicken, BBQ Ribs, Corn Dogs, Macaroni and Cheese, Salads, Jello, Fruit, self serve ice cream, cakes.
Price of Entrees: $60 family of 6
Rate the following (1-5, five being the best!)
Food: 1 (can I put less than 1?)
Service: 2
Rate the atmosphere: 2 (now we know why the place was empty)
Okay for Children: No - our children would not eat the food because it was so disgusting
Okay for Couples: Maybe if you are planning on dumping your partner and didn't want to waste a lot of money on dinner
Be Sure To Try:
The only edible item was the ice cream from the machine. All the "hot" dishes were actually lukewarm. The chicken was so dry you could not break it off the bone. The ribs were just that - ribs (maybe you had to pay more to get meat on them). The fruit and salads tasted fermented. I wish we had found something we could recommend - even the Jello tasted off (how can you ruin Jello?)
General Tips:
DO NOT ENTER
TheMouseForLess Tip:
The buffet looked like a good deal because drink is included : however the soft drinks were so watered down you could not taste the flavour at all - only the colour might give you a clue what you ordered.
Extra Comment:
Please pass this on to the health authorities - I would be very surprised if any of the food in the buffet selection was less than 24 hours old.

Rate the atmosphere:
Okay for Children: Yes, but very loud
Okay_for_Couples: Yes, if you like loud
Be Sure To Try: To be honest, I really couldn't recommend any
General Tips: The food off the menu was better than the food offered on the buffet.
MouseForLess Tip: Don't have any.
Extra Comment:
The food on the buffet was overcooked & not appealing at all, the wait staff was overworked & never available. They offer free refills, but good luck finding someone to refill your glass. It took quite a while for the ordered food to arrive. We will never eat at this restaurant again. It ran us $90 & we got better food, service & atmosphere at almost every other restaurant we ate at on our trip.

Rate the atmosphere: 2
Okay for Children: "Yes"
Kids like just about anything and if they get to pick their food from a buffet even better for them
Okay_for_Couples: "No"
I would never go here again. The buffet was not kept up well, the food was just OK and the silverware was dirty. With people serving themselves we say some sticking their fingers in the food to try it. Gross!
Be Sure To Try: n/a
General Tips: I would suggest finding another place to eat.
MouseForLess Tip: It is a semi cheap place to eat but others can be found in the area too
Extra Comment: I would not visit this location again. I would rather pay a few dollars more at Mimi's or one of the may other places next store. This place is not as clean as I would like a eating establishmment to be. We will not go back!

Food: 2
Service: 3
Atmosphere:
Okay for Children: "Yes" surprisingly, our children loved both the restaurant and the food.
Okay for Couples: just okay.
TheMouseForLess tips: The buffet is really reasonable, actually lower in price than many of the dishes, so if you're very hungry and want lots of food but do not care about quality, it is a great deal.
Extra Comments: Although both dh and I thought buffet was pretty blah, and wouldn't recommend it for adults unless quality is not a concern, the kids seem to love what's there and actually asked us to eat there again.
