    Good price and experience! The buffet was clean and fully stocked. We tried a little bit of everything and it was mostly great! A few items you could tell was buffet quality, but overall we enjoyed it more than not. Our dirty plates were taken away quickly and our waters filled consistently. We paid about $56 for two adult dinners, fountain drinks included, which is a steal these days!

    donde te sirven cafe se mira muy viejo y poco higiénico y los baños es un problema entrar ya que solo cuentan con un baños seria necesario mas baños

    I absolutely love Hacienda Buffet! I'm not really into other buffets, but I need to hit up this place at least a couple times a month. The food is fantastic and it reminds me of my grandma and grandpa's cooking. I love the Pork and Chile Verde, rice, beans and Sopa de Fideo. These are my favorites that I get every time I visit. I've tried a few other dishes such as Pork and Chile Rojo and Hamburger and Chile and they're all fantastic and delicious! I like flour tortillas and they're made to order, fresh and hot. The Caldo de Res is also delicious too. The buffet is kept very clean and anything spilled is wiped up promptly. The atmosphere is very nice with high ceilings and nice decor. They even have a guy playing the guitar and singing Mexican music table-side on the weekends. He'll ask before he starts playing, but if he sings for you, make sure to tip! The wait staff is very nice and be sure to tip them, as well! A manager even came by our table one night and suggested Mexican coffee as an after dinner drink. My roommate and I aren't coffee drinkers, but she tried it and was pleasantly surprised! She said it was absolutely delicious. Anyways, this isn't your typical buffet. I love this place and if you're reading my review and haven't given Hacienda a try, I'd highly suggest you do!

My opinion is most bad restaurants are not going to have an off day that makes them good but good restaurants can always have an off day and I wish more people thought about that. Unless I'm at an expensive restaurant I don't expect absolute perfection. All that being said I'm not sure why this buffet has a 2.8 star rating. I typically say buffets are just mediocre so they almost have their own rating scale (for me). Some are genuinely bad but typically they are all just average. This is the first buffet I have ever been to that completely surprised me. From the first bite to the last everything was good. I kept waiting to get something that I hated but that never happened. The sushi is not sushi restaurant grade sushi but it's nice to have as an option and this was one of the best I've had on a buffet. The seafood delight is usually one of my favorites on a buffet but it's also normally just okay;however, here it was phenomenal. I would've ordered that by itself. I know my plate photo looks like chaos but it's because I like to try a little bit of everything and like I said usually you get a couple of items that just are not good. I can say that there was not one thing on my plate that I did not enjoy. This is the first buffet that if I did not rate it based off of it being a buffet it would be a solid 4-4.5. Aside from fast food I can't think of anywhere else I can get a full meal for $13 and it's definitely not going to be as good as all of this. It's got the standard buffet layout and over all the vibe was the same as just about any other buffet. It was pretty clean and there were plenty of options. Also my service was amazing and the female hostess that seated me was so friendly and even complimented my fit. We love to have our lunch served with a side of a confidence boost!

So we were able to get one nice full plate of breakfast and then lunch was served at 11I believe and we also got to try the lunch buffet as well. I love that they have a lot of vegetable options because I am a pescatarian and don't eat meat besides fish. Regardless, if you have breakfast, lunch or both they charge the same amount, 15 dollars. They are open from 7am until 2pm. They only do the buffet on the weeknd. But if you order from the menu, the serving sizes are also very large, they are also open on the holidays. So if you don't want to cook, this would be a great place to check out, especially if you have family in town as they have a lot of tables that seat large parties. The staff was super friendly and answered all of our questions. Especially since it was our first time here, but it will definitely not be our last

First of all, I got an email inviting me to come visit the restaurant with a buy one get one free, but it kind of seemed like they were annoyed that we were using it. This could be just my anxiety, but I felt like we were treated a little bit less warmly by some of the staff than other tables. For example, a manager of some type was walking the floor. He stopped at the table before us and checked in on them, skipped us and went to the table after us and checked in on them, and then only on his way back to wherever he was going, he stopped reluctantly and acknowledged us. It definitely made me feel like we were not as welcome as the other tables. Second, I don't like the inclusion of the picanha for the higher price (vs. what they were doing before which was an upcharge if you wanted the steak), because the protein that I like at Casa Pollastro is the chicken. I don't really love their steak and do not want to pay $10pp more for it. Lastly, what I had loved about this restaurant in the past was that it felt like I was enjoying a meal at a family home, served with love and care. I think that they've made some changes which are smart for a restaurant, but it took away a lot of the warm and fuzzies for me. It felt like they're trying really hard to be a high-end restaurant but what I remember from this last experience was coldness and putting profit first. Now I can't be mad if they want to grow up as a restaurant and this is just part of the growing pains, but I will mourn the loss of the experience that we loved so much that we chose to have our engagement party at this restaurant. We will not be back.
