Stopped in for lunch and had an amazing time!! Sharon was so kind and personable and gave us great recommendations for what to enjoy for lunch! The steak and cheese was the best my husband has ever had. We will definitely be back!

Passing through for business and stopped in for lunch. Staff was great! Very friendly. Had the lunch buffet. Salad bar was clean and on point. Pasta and pizza was tasty. Couldn't stop. Will definitely go back.

The lunch buffet is a must. Everything is delicious and they put out different items on a regular basis to keep it interesting along side the usual pizza, pasta, and salad bar you would expect. The staff are so friendly and they all care so much about food quality and your experience. Just an all-around great place.

This restaurant has very good customer service along with very good food that was worth the amount of money I paid for it. I really did enjoy the interior decorations also along with the music and plenty of space in between tables. I would highly recommend this restaurant to people who live in Bridgewater Virginia and even outside of Bridgewater Virginia if they want to have good food along with a good time!

I enjoyed the food, service and environment. A good country drive from 81 near JMU or other area attractions, but we'll with the trip. Hank made the experience that much better.

Was late to my reservation, when I called in the guy was super chill and said he’ll push it back for us. Our table was still ready. Genesis was a great server and the food was good. Unlimited garlic knots was a plus to. A nice chill spot for me and my girlfriend for valentine’s day weekend. They gave us 10% off for their anniversary which was pretty dope. The lasagna was great as well and the caesar salad. Will definitely be back!
