    The hostess (Victoria) was extremely grumpy as we asked to switch from sitting in the screened porch to outside and it turned into a whole production. Michael, who was either a manager or another host tried to help and just got attitude from her too. The only other issue was that they fresh fruit was never replenished in the buffet (we were there for almost 45 minutes) and so all there was was honeydew and cantaloupe available as the watermelon, oranges, berries, etc. were all gone.

    We had a wonderful server, Kim, who was busy but never made us feel like she was. While the menu is on the small side, everybody in my party loved their meals & I was presently surprised by the great selection of wines on their list! (The prices are great for some higher end bottles.) I was visiting family in Bluffton, and this was our first time to Palmetto Bluff. We were already talking about next time we visit! Side note: they’re very family friendly here & even offer little drawing tablets to the kids!

    This was my third visit to Buffalos; the first time for lunch. I took my friend who was visiting from Ohio. We both ordered salads, and they were delicious! The service was excellent.

    We were staying at The Montage as a get away weekend celebrating our 60 birthdays and our wedding anniversary. Buffalos and their staff make the dinner so special as several of them stopped by our table to congratulate us. Brandon was our server and took extra special care of us. Then night could have not been more memorable!
