OK, one of the things I have noted about restaurants in general, is that they never get BETTER with the passage of time. When have you, actually gone to a place over time and have it get better over the years. Well, this special Christmas dinner they have here every year is an example of just that. Last year the food was great and I would rave about it. I really looked forward to coming again this year. I was sorely disappointed. One of the main reasons I picked to come here instead of my many other choices in the Reno area, was the fact that they offered all you can eat rack of lamb at the buffet. Now I can get many places all you can eat crab legs, prawns and steak, but you NEVER see rack of lamb! Last year the quality was great with all of the offerings. They were gourmet sit down restaurant quality. This year the food really sucked! The lamb was all over cooked and dry. Last year I was able to get the server at the lamb station to just give me a whole rack, as it was all you can eat anyhow. This year they refused to do it. I'm not sure if it was a language barrier or not, but the attendant barely spoke english, wish I spoke Mexican! Get employees that speak fluently english PLEASE! esp. if they are to be interacting with the public and customers. On top of all that they ran out of the lamb, half way through the dinner! The crab cakes that were good last year were all dry and the steaks were all over cooked! I realize this is a buffet, but last year they pulled it off just fine! Now for the service, or shall I say lack of. Our server didn't even come by our table to get our drink orders till after we had visited the buffet twice already! Then he was not around much to refill the drinks. He sure came fast with the bill though! I can't see that the food or service at the regular dinner times (non-buffet) would be any better. The price of the buffer was $35 a person. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE, there are many other choices in RENO! I will never stay at this awful place again!
