The Best Seafood Buffets In America
BY Mona Bassil
Original Benjamin's
Considered one of the largest all-you-can-eat buffets in the U.S., The Original Benjamin's Calabash Seafood offers more than 170 items, like Cajun crab legs.
The restaurant is located in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and has amazed newcomers with its diverse cooking methods and appropriate food temperatures.
Cafe Sierra
Located in Los Angeles, California, the Cafe Sierra Seafood Buffet offers all-you-can-eat fresh and locally caught seafood and tantalizing dishes like the shrimp boil.
The upscale buffet is a coveted spot for special occasions thanks to its comfortable space, high glass ceiling, courteous service, massive dessert selection, and live music acts.
The Nordic
While The Nordic of Charlestown, Rhode Island, only operates from late April to mid-December, its "from the sea" makes it a popular destination.
The selection features both classic and unique items, like New England clam chowder and scallop scampi. Some patrons have called The Nordic the best buffet in the U.S. overall.
Whale Harbor
Considered one of the most affordable quality seafood buffets across the Florida Keys, the Whale Harbor Seafood Feast offers over 60 items, including seafood paella.
Overall, customers find this Islamorada restaurant to be good value for money, considering all the options offered and the sufficient snow crab serving per person.
Yukai
While buffets in malls tend to have a bad reputation, the Yukai Japanese and Seafood Buffet inside Virginia Beach's Regency Hilltop Shopping Center is an exception.
The lunch, dinner, and carry-out buffets are reasonably priced and will give you access to 40 kinds of freshly prepared sashimi and sushi, over 100 hot entrees, and more.
