Lunch buffets not the same as evening buffets.
Sometimes the lunch buffets only have half as much variety as the evening buffets. for $8.40 that is not much more than what you would pay at McDonalds. I have seen $15.95 buffets in the evenings where crabs legs and lobsters are served and there is much better variety. The buffets only make money on Thursday, Friday evenings and all day Saturday and Sundays. The rest of the time they just stay open to please the customers. I find the desserts are also doubled in the evenings.
