  On the road to Clearwater Beach Island, Fl. From Georgia
  Stopped for a quick lunch...pretty good treat.  We'll definitely stop on our way back home.
  Give it a try..is worth it!

  These buffets are best on weekends. I find it just fine but I only go Friday, Saturday or Sunday.
  
  I made the mistake of going an hour before closing on a Sunday and it was horrible. They had already turned off the steam tables some time before and turned the sushi cold-table off too. I found a few warm items to eat but definitely NOT $14 worth.
  
  The hot food wasn't hot and the cold sushi was just dangerous. A call to the health inspector is coming.
  
  Further, I made a note for the manager to see and he and the server scoffed at it. Basically, the 2 hours before closing the inmates are running the asylum. Workers stand around or are on their phones.
  
  I don't know how they do things in China, but if your posted closing time is 9:30 and you're collecting money from people coming in the door, the expectation is that your business is fully functioning. This is not the case at Ocean Buffet. Late patrons are inconvenient to the worker's after work plans.
  
  The service is excellent. More hand sanitizer would be good and so would keeping the hand washing supplies in the men's room maintenance.
  
  In summary, I originally had posted a good review but now I've downgraded this place. Way to blow it OCEAN BUFFET!

  Long wait, get called inside just to be sent back outside. Get called in again to find someone else scooped the table trying to put 7 people at a 4 person table. Food was ok, not very hot. While eating we watched a fairly big roach crawl up the wall and go into the wood work. Staff isn't very friendly. More than likely won't go back!!

  We were road-tripping through Florida and decided we should really eat some seafood while we were so close to miles and miles of coastline. We saw the billboards from the freeway and decided that a hop off at the next exit was precisely what we needed to sustain us for the rest of a long day of visiting new places.
  
  There was a lot of selection, but we stuck pretty much to the seafood selections, after all, we can get fresh chicken and beef just fine in our land-locked home. Each individual dish that we tried (And we took tiny portions of more than half the offerings) was pretty solidly prepared, correct temperatures, correct flavor profiles, but nothing stood out as being the most amazing of its type we had ever tried.
  
  Our table was clean. We had no wait for seating, and the fact that some dishes ran out during our visit and were replaced as they were prepared anew gave us the feeling of rotating variety. We had to grab more small, sample portions as we did our second trip through the stations to grab another helping of the dishes we liked most.
  
  A-ok is precisely how we would describe this buffet experience, and while we would stop again if in the area, we wouldn't plan a trip around stopping by.

  I saw the ad for ocean Buffett on Hwy75 north and decided to try it.  The restaurant was clean and the food looked and smelled delicious.  They had everything you could want for on the buffett line.  The food was cooked to perfection. I think you will really enjoy this restaurant.
