    Thanksgiving meal was pretty good but not like home and the mix of Chinese and thanksgiving food was a little strange. No pies or pumpkin pies and a bit overpriced for what you get but tasted good was warm and decent amount of dessert bite sized items. The waitress and environment was very nice.

    Having been to this location several times before, we were excited to make a reservation for the first time not having Thanksgiving at home. In general, the food was well prepared. The turkey presentation, a tray of sliced turkey breast was disappointing. Buffet setup, around the bar, possibly to accomodate more sitting, seemed more like a cafeteria and was not festive at all. Fairly long wait in line with slow progression. There appeared to be only one person replensishing the buffet; and numerous times staff crossed through line to access the bar. The dessert presentation was pitiful. Poorly thawed desserts, obviously from a food warehouse type location. Poor presentation and items were not replaced in a timely manner. This buffet was definitely overpriced by at least $10 per person

    Came for the Thanksgiving buffet and had a pretty terrible experience. We sat for 35 minutes before we had to flag down the manager to at least get water. Food was subpar at best. Instant potatoes, a literal salt lick for stuffing, and processed to heck "turkey" only preformed white meat and no dark meat. It was a sad experience for something so costly.

    When I made the reservation online for Thanksgiving, the price was $34. each. When they called me to reconfirm my reservation, the price had gone up to $45. I was surprised and disappointed but I accepted it.

    Could not have picked a better place to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. The owner, Tina came over and talked to us a few different times, and our server was a ball full of energy at the youthful age of 65! Incredible food, champagne toast for our anniversary, and a complimentary desert led to the perfect evening! We will definitely be back!

    Not enough vegetarian choices. I got sick from the portobello mushroom dish and the chocolate lava cake. Still ailing a day later ... To be fair, the guy who joined me really enjoyed his spicy chicken plate.

    Big fan of J‘s but 3rd straight time the soup was cold. Told server but NO help. If they don’t get this fixed we will not make this our company function. It has been at both locations. Invest in a microwave or get a better stove.
