The Gathering Place - Canyonville

It is a 1 to 2 hours waiting when you go in a Friday or weekend night. The shells were good, but how only 25% of them had actual meat inside, the main rib was literally the best meat? I've ever cost in my whole life. The player card is free, which makes it $22.00 instead of $30.00 so that it at least makes You feel like you get a good offer. The vanilla frozen yogurt tasted strange, it was almost like spoiled milk, but the mint taste was wonderful, then the soft nap was pretty dang good, fajita is crazy tasty and they have taco stuff and crazy good waffleries. Veggie rice was kind of rough, but the Spanish rice should die. There is definitely delicious food when you are in the imagination, so overall I was really happy. I have to drive 45 miles to get there, but there are no more quality buffets closer to me, so it's worth when you were in the past in Hometown Buffet?

We went to the buffet last night 2-19-2020. The food was better than the last few weeks. The only thing I can say is that we want to see ham on the line more often. We miss it. Some of the secondary dishes are a little bland, but I think that's what salt and pepper is. Please keep the good work, and add ham more often during the week. D. R. Wilcox.

Our server, Shaune, was fantastic. Although she was obviously pregnant and probably unpleasant, she and her service are exceptional. It's said... to the food. The crab, although apparently frozen before, was hot or cold and the main rib was as big as ever. The main rib is served very rarely, but you can ask your server to take it and have to put it on the broiler and cook it longer without foot. This is what I and my girl do and it comes back hot with sea notes and is delicious. There are a variety of foods to choose. I especially like the muscles and the muscles and the shells and the shells. Their desert and salad bars are also top notch, although I never had a salad there in person. I have many deserts and all were great. Bottom line for $22 You can simply not beat the value, food and all to good service. I recommend everything you can eat Dungeness crab and Prime Rib Buffet 100%.

This place used to be my go-to for seafood. They?ve got signs all up and down I-5 advertising ?Seafood Buffet Friday Saturday? but when I arrived today (Saturday) it?s ?Surf and Turf? which is apparently some steamed clams and breaded fish with some poorly cooked prime rib... Definitely not worth the price they charge; it used to be well worth the price but not anymore.. They keep spending money on upgrading the place to look nice, but it looked fine before the most recent remodel. They made the buffet much smaller and also lost a lot of quality with the food. Hopefully whoever manages this place comes to their senses about this place being pretty vs having actually good food.

This was a great place to eat before new management came in and ruined it. It went from a somewhat classy dining experience to just an over priced disgusting buffet. The fried chicken turned into a mushy paste and could be ?chewed? without teeth, the chicken parm was just chicken (not even fried) with cheep marinara on top with cheese. Even the salad tasted rancid. Now the last thing that made it somewhat nice, waitresses getting drinks for you, has been replace with a self serve station. If the new management is reading this please know that you ruined a great thing.
