Al Mac's Grill & Bar

Boy, do i wish i had read the reviews here...!!

I saw this place the first day i arrived, but tried another place the first morning. But the following morning decided to head down to Al Macs after seeing the $7.99 buffet sign.

Decent looking inside. Big , modern. Service is pretty fast as well.

Food is decent, nothing to write home about.  They do have real maple syrup, which other places don't. Good bacon, eggs, french toast, along with some greek specialties.'

Now the kicker.... i have a real problem being taken advantage of. And to me when you advertise a buffet for $7.99,  but then charge $4 for each glass of orange juice, or soda, i'm being taken advantage of.

Coffee $3.50.  So basically i ended up paying more for a coffee and a glass of orange juice than the buffett itself.

I truly don't get the mentality of some restaurants owners. He could charge $9.99 for the buffett, and have normal drink prices and people would still come.  

But why do this shuffling game of prices? It simply leaves a image on the customer's mind as if you were just kicked in the back. Normally i would go back, but out of principle, i won't

If i had read the reviews first, i would have bought a bottle of water outside and had it with my buffet so i could laugh in their faces.

If I had internet access and could access Yelp, I never would have gone here.

The logo looks good, the billboard is inviting and it is quick.

The food is sick.  Not a lot of variety - a few types of potatoes, eggs, bacon, the basics.  So basically a fancy Holiday Inn buffet.  They wouldn't give us water, so we had to order pop - at $4 each...thank you very much.

It was $30 and it was not good.  I put on a happy face for my husband because he was pissed about the "no water" thing...but I wasn't pleased either.  Boo.

Price was decent, but the drinks were outrageously expensive. We ended up paying $13 per person for breakfast Buffett.
