    AYCE Crab Claws!!

    Food above average, great service and ambience as expected. Nice to see they have refreshed the place.

    Seafood buffet.

    This place is very outdated and is dank and grungy inside. We were seated in a booth with our friends. We had to move, because our friend was literally sitting in a hole in the seat! Why would the hostess even put anyone in that booth! Our friend said we have to move. I can't sit like this i will throw my back out! The food was mediocre. A lot of breaded shrimp and fish. Overcooked salmon. The side dishes were bland. I really only enjoyed the hush puppies and cold shrimp. I also had a bbq rib, which wasn't that great.I don't recommend this place. There are plenty of other seafood places to go to near by. Save your money and time.

    If you like all you can eat seafood buffets great place to visit! Our waitress was super friendly and the young woman that took our picture was pleasant and very sweet. We had no wait and we're quickly seated. It's definitely got a tourist vibe to it but we are tourists so we fit right in.

    Crackers and more

    You can't go wrong here. The place is big and clean. They keep all seafood full never have to wait for anything. Crab legs were fresh and tasty. More here than anywhere I've been before. Stayed more than 2 hours. Just love this place,you will too!!!!

    If you are charging $50 to eat crab legs at least have ones with meat in them. Rest of the food wasn't very warm. Floor was very slippery. Bathrooms were tired. Time to replace your toilet seats. Waitress was nice.

    Over priced for what is served on the buffet. Drinks and service were good, the only reason for two stars. Would not recommend.

    I'd skip this place if you are looking for high quality seafood experience. Tater tots were about the only good thing here.

    So disappointed. Crab legs were cold, the oysters were about the size of a quarter and the rest of the seafood was fair. Not worth the $.

The manager (I think his name was Dave?) saw us waiting up front and came over to make sure we'd been helped.... And chatted with us until the host came back in to seat us. Our server was MaKayla, and she was an absolute delight! Such a good personality and an absolute gem! She made sure we had everything we needed (including multiple trips to get me more lemons for my crab plate lol)! Drinks were refilled quickly too. She was also very respectful, helpful and kind with our adult son who has special needs -- she listened patiently as he ordered (in GREAT detail lol), brought him to-go containers (& cup) and just honestly made him feel seen and heard! I had the snow crab platter, which was very obviously fresh (found out they have trucks bringing them in fresh from Maine 3 times per week!). Such good crab! They even had the little scissors which made shelling it so much quicker and easier! My husband had flounder and fries and then fish tacos and a shrimp taco - BIG tacos! Our son chose the Korean chicken wings and fries -- the wings were VERY BIG too.... We all left very full and even with some to take home with us. Would definitely rate this place 10/10!

    Another trip to Huck Finn's and another great meal. We had to wait about 10 minutes to be seated…read morebut once we e had a table, our server was immediately there to take our drink order. I ordered the Mark Twain combo. My brother ordered the Southern Chicken Fingers. Both were very good. The catfish was my favorite. So flaky and fried well. The fried chicken was good too. My brother said his chicken fingers were good as well. Overall, another great visit. Will definitely return.

    This was recommended to us while we were visiting pigeon forge…read more There is a short-ish wait depending on the time of day you're there, but they're is a gift shop and nice deck area while waiting. It's a good size place, and with that comes a LOT of internal noise. My sister and I had a hard time having normal conversation. We had a great waitress, friendly and smiling. She also made sure we got whatever we needed. They stay you with a bunch of free starters, yummy coleslaw, pinto beans, and hush puppies, but themselves enough for a meal! The food was...smeh. I got what was supposed to be fried catfish, but arrived baked - and greasy. I ended up sending it back. It was a fun place to visit, but I didn't feel the quality of the food, and the volume of the place works make it worth a return trip. I should also note - the staff, from waitress, to the busses deserve kudos, they kept that place moving!

    First time eating here with my daughter and my husband for a family of three. I can't give this…read morerestaurant a five star only because some of the food was not up to par. My husband got the fried crab legs which we had never had before and I do not recommend them because it is very hard to get into the shells because the meat actually sticks to the sides. My husband's asparagus was not very good at all. It was very soggy the calamari we had. It would've been nice to know that it comes with fried jalapeños and carrots, which neither of us actually eat. We actually just wanted the calamari. My daughter had the king crab legs, which were very good and she ate everything.. My platter was the steamed platter with crab legs, and it was very good. I ate everything. My Caesar salad was not very good at all. any dressing on the lettuce. It would be better if the Caesar salad actually had a lot of Caesar. And for the price that you pay for all three of us to eat was extremely expensive even though we were getting seafood. I understand the price was a hefty tag, but you would expect better. They did knock it out of the park for my daughter's 17th birthday, where they embarrassed her highly lol calling her out front in front of everyone. and our waitress was absolutely wonderful, but it would've been nice for her to have help. The inside of the restaurant is very unique.
