Gift Tips
- Plan for the seafood stations first if you want the best value, especially the crab legs, lobster, oysters, and shrimp.
- Save room for the dessert and ice cream stations, since the sweet options are a big part of the experience.
- If you enjoy drinks with your meal, the bottomless beer and wine option can make a visit feel more like a special occasion.
- Ask the team at the carving station for recommendations on the prime rib or filet to help narrow down the many meat choices.
- Mention a birthday or anniversary when you book, since the staff often helps make celebrations feel more personal.
