    Giant shrimp
    Mac C.

    5-stars for sure! I don't know why the other reviewers here say otherwise. Remember, this is an AYCE buffet and you have set your expectations, especially for the price! We were visiting on a day trip from Boston, and we know AYCE. Was pleasantly surprised to find sushi and sashimi too (maybe because it's a Saturday and a holiday weekend? Or always dunno)- and it was good for what it is (again, set expectations - this is NOT $10/appetizer type of restaurant). The shrimp were enormous! And 8 flavors of ice cream to choose from. And the price can't be beat. Plus a family restaurant! Glad post-pandemic buffets are back and glad we made it here tonight.

    Clams, shrimp, sushi, sashimi

    Came here twice, decent food. Lots of sashimi and clams even during the weekday. Seeing people eat 5+ pounds of sushi or shrimp is pretty amazing. Where does all the food go I wonder? This restaurant is popular with everyone and was pretty crowded for a Wednesday. Sushi is of middle quality - lots of variety, very affordable. Chinese takeout food mad decent as well

    The buffet was good. Some food was a bit too sweet to my liking but overall it was good. The servers were very attentive and it was clean.

    Shrimp with Garlic Sauce, fried rice and hot and sour soup.

    The Garden Grille & Bar [TGG&B]. (3 stars)…read more "I know that they say... That somethings are better left unsaid." - Justin Timberlake A beautiful little bar and grille located in Hilton Garden Inn Mystic/Groton. There is a bar and dining area which holds about 35-40 people. Friendly bartenders and a variety of seafood, steak, and pasta dishes. I ordered the following: -Pan Fried Dumplings -Shrimp Scampi Pan Fried Dumplings. (3.5 stars). Even though these Dumplings were not pan fried and seared like I'm used to, they were filling and tasty. I would order these again! But they just taste steamed. It comes with a Mae Ploy Sweet Chili Dipping Sauce. Nice appetizer! Shrimp Scampi. (2.5 stars). Purely for the fresh shrimp!! Plump and tasty. The pasta was a little over cooked. But I come to New England for SEAFOOD!! The sauce was very oily and NOT MEMORABLE. There was a hint of garlic. But I would not order this dish again. The TGG&B bartender and the staff are wicked awesome and friendly!! Next time I'm in the area I'll be back!!

    The food was great. I recommend the shrimp cocktail and clam chowder. The service was excellent…read more Never thought one girl could do so much. She was bartender, waitress, and tending the buffet. I'm not sure why this place has an "x" by "kid friendly" because this girl was surely loved by the children we saw in the restaurant.

It was a bit above average for the area and prices were better than I've seen elsewhere. My husband and I dined in on a Saturday around 6 pm. The place was already slammed with online orders and it did not stop the entire hour or so we spent in the building. Everything is disposable even when dining in and eating out of styrofoam isn't my preference but ok. It's a small establishment and I would guess the overwhelming majority of their business comes through online ordering. So, order online rather than go in as there is no real ambiance. I tend to order pretty basic rolls and sashimi which I think really levels the playing field when it comes to sushi. So, my commentary on the sushi is just based on the quality of the fish. It was alright not particularly vibrant or fresh. But not bad either. The pieces of sashimi were literally the biggest I've ever seen. They were too big to comfortably one-bite. The spicy tuna roll was pretty good and didn't require soy sauce to make it palatable. The miso soup was also good. My husband loved their salad dressing. If we decide to order again I would skip the sashimi and probably order some à la cart nigiri to form my final opinion. The search for a truly killer sushi place around here continues.
