I never placed a review before now but i felt a moral obligation to warn anyone smart enough to read reviews before dining and this place deserves an exception! After the fact I see it has a remarkable amount of other 1st time reviewers as well . Understand I have been around and have dined in places I did not care for in the past. I normally warn friends and family and never go back. Sadly Due to this terible experience I WILL now look at reviews before I step into another restaruant in unfamiliar territories. Lesson learned ! Out of 5 lobsters it took to find 2 that were edible if you love extremely salted rubber. One I could not eat way too much salt and the other 2 was disintegrated Mush! I commented to the server who was handing out 1 at a time he sounded rehearsed stating they dont season any of the food and if they were too salty it was because they were cooked that way then frozen. I told the non uniform wearing server I"ve had frozen lobsters before in the past ( Whippersnappers in Branson) that were not salty then I showed him one of the Nasty mushy lobster he was so preciously handing out and he commented " Thats what happens sometimes from frozen lobsters,when it does you tell me and I get you another" with a smile. They also had stone crab on the buffet that was also mushy which the meat had to be scrapped off with a fork. The snow crab was over cooked and the shells on some of them was soft. The owner or manager walked around looked like he was counting the lobsters that every table was eating or making sure everything was eaten before you got up for another pass by the buffet. (No worries there) Now to remembering i need to say something nice ... Its gard but the waitress did save me some money on my hot tea pointing out a self serve hot tea/coffee dispenser in the corridor. . Before even an hour after we left I Thought I Had a Food Poisoning! I felt I was going to be getting sick for hours ! ( Politically correct statement since you are looking to eat) Now this was a Terrible ending to a perfect birthday spent on Daytona Beach fishing, surfing and relaxing while holding off and eating a light lunch looking forward to ALL YOU CAN EAT LOBSTER AND CRABS! For my 50th Birthday dinner with my kids. I am a single parent so we have to make funds last unfortentually this place was a few dollars cheaper from another all you can eat lobsters I should have patronized. I dont believe the health department ever cracked open any of the food because undoubtedly this place would have been shut down. This place Preys on the high revolving touristy area .... Caveat Emptor !!! .......... YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED ! Go elsewhere! Good luck and Bon Appétit

My family was looking forward to eating at this establishment. We were so disappointed. The food was horrible. My 3yr old grand child loves corn on the cob. She started crying and saying it tasted bad. I ate I lobster and a piece off a crab leg. It was horrible. My son ate muscles and a lobster. We tried to negotiate with the manager to pay a fair price for what we did eat. He did not want to discount our meal and proceeded to hand us a bill for 2 all you can eat meals and a childs meal for 7.99. After we refused to leave until he lowered the price. He charged us 49.00. This included the 2 adults meals and 1 child meal. This meal was not discounted enough for what we ate, but I have health problems and my heart was racing fast because I was upset. I needed to leave to go back to the hotel and take my medicine and lie down. There were people at the table behind us and a couple who were both chiefs who we observed spitting their food in their plates. They too want to complain but felt they wouldnt get their money back since we didnt get much of a discount off our meal. There were also 3 adults with us who canceled their order without eating after they saw the horrible food. My daughter commented to me that the place was not clean and she didnt want to eat in a dirty place.

Im surprised this place is still open! The only reason why my husband and I sat down and ate at this restaurant was because we purchased a Groupon. Not only is the selection poor and the food is not seasoned they have a dude with a nasty attitude rationing the lobster and crab legs. The lobster was rubbery and 1 of the crab legs was BAD! I dont mean bad as in being cold or not seasoned but BAD as in SPOILED!!! I could NOT get the funk off of my hands. All the sanitizer in my purse could not get rid of the funk. When we brought it to the attention of the waiter he apologized immediately and removed the foul smelling crab legs from the table offering to replace them with fresh crab legs. At this point we just wanted the lobster and crab legs removed from the bill and wanted to speak with the manager. We waited 15 minutes only for the other waiter to return and say that the manager stepped out and he was second in command. We stated the issue and he wanted to argue. We didnt allow that to happen. He left our table and later returned removing the lobster and crab legs from the bill. I would have given them a zero if I had the option. The only thing good about this place was the very nice waiter in which we made sure that we tipped.

WORST FOOD EVER!!!!! My husband and I went here for the all you can eat lobster, crab legs, and cooked to order steak. Our first mistake was price matching with Boston Lobster (we should have went back to Boston better food), second mistake like previous person said was not looking at the food before sitting down or reading the reviews. My lobster was very rubbery and the crab legs had no flavor. I mostly ate corn (lol) the most expensive corn ever for $44. My husbands steak was ok but it had no salt or flavoring, on the flip side my steak was tender and good after adding a dash of salt and pepper. The butter had a weird flavor to it and the deserts were very few and OLD. All in all this was the worst food Ive had in an extremely long time. Also, I see where the OWNER comments responses from the reviews. My advice is stop commenting and start making changes, the reviews have been consistent for the past 6 months complaining of bad food please make a change and get a better cook or stop being cheap trying to conserve food. Also, if you are a consumer please check the reviews before eating at another establishment that way you dont waste your hard earn money on horrible food.

Let me start by saying our poor experience Im sure has to do with the fact that we walked in an hour before closing, but being on vacation at Disney on a weekend night we didnt think much of the time. When we walked in we watched the server tell a couple the price and they got up and walked out. We were expecting steak shrimp lobster and crab legs... what we got... rubber lobsters loaded with eggs without claws. Everything on the bar was cold. No lobster claws no steak available at all one cluster of crab legs at a time at one point he asks if we are interested in anymore soup because they wanted to take the soup bar apart at the same time they brought out a pan of hot crab legs but the person in charge of serving them was missing, we werent taking note of the time with no notice everything was turned off and the seafood quickly whisked away cold noodles and things stayed for a bit longer. We left still hungry after paying over $200 combined for 4 adults and one child... dont waste your money here.
