How does this place stay in business? Let’s start with the menu that makes your eyes hurt. The waitress with zero personality.. The food.. Lord add some seasoning to the burger. How do onions have no flavor? It was the worst burger Ive had. The chili was so salty and dried out like its been sitting in the pot for days. It was not even warm! But the worst was the bathroom.. holes all over. Stunk so bad and nasty faucet where you wash your hands.. absolutely disgusting! They must be paying the health inspector!! Im not kidding either. It could be a nice place with some fresh paint, clean bathrooms,nicer staff and better food. Just all around bad experience. We live here and have tried to give it several opportunities to be better and its just not good. Go to Angies lighthouse instead!!

I have never posted a review before, but I am thoroughly aggravated by this place. Food was good, not great. Medium selection on breakfast buffet, adequate. The real issue was at time of payment. Was told the buffet was $13.95 per person. It rang up at 29.95 for 2, without tax. Bought 2 diet Pepsi drinks. As she always does, my wife asked for a take-out drink to be substituted with sweet tea. [Has never been an issue at any other restaurant]. Waitress complied. Billed for 3 drinks, $9.95, at the register. When we raised the question about the drink (forget the overcharge on the buffet), was told she had ro charge it. We are 1 and done with Mark's.

First visit today and was pleasantly pleased with the friendliness of all of the staff. Plenty of space to move around and place seemed very clean. Food was fresh and hot. We both had different burgers and they were very good and nicely priced. Can't wait to go back and try the seafood basket and some other items on menu.
