**Highlander House of Buffet Steakhouse: A Mixed Bag of Experiences** Highlander House of Buffet Steakhouse has garnered a spectrum of opinions from diners. While some praise the home-cooked flavor, quick service, and delightful desserts like cobbler, others criticize the underwhelming buffet offerings, citing dry seafood and bland vegetables reminiscent of institutional dining. The restaurant’s decor and atmosphere evoke nostalgia yet may not appeal to everyone, especially younger patrons.

The venue, conveniently located next to a park, offers potential for relaxation after dining.

Was Tammy K at Highlander a mag?
Food was fresh and hot, if there was a bin empty it didn't stay empty long. We were here as a family with young kids. Super friendly staff made it easy to get what we needed for the little ones first. Salad bar was simple but fresh and had enough selections to give both kids their preferences. Lunch was chicken fried steak and tacos/ fajitas. Both were good. Gravy was a little thin but still had flavor. The ice cream... View all feedback.
What Robert B dislikes about Highlander:
We traveled to Burnet for the Bluebonnet Festival and stopped here for lunch, expecting steak and seafood buffet around 130 on the Saturday.While the wait staff was ok, the gentleman cleaning the tables was totally customer engaged. However. while priced reasonab;y, there was not steak, and the poor seafood consisted of cried crab and dry fish and shrimp that was over fried.From the furnishings it would seem at one t...

I was really hoping that the money they saved in coming up with a professional name for this place (who comes up with a name like Highlander House of Buffet Steakhouse, and doesn't even serve steak? was instead invested in the finest ingredients and chefs. Well, sadly, I was mistaken. This place is from another era, when food was bland and buffets were plentiful. I imagine this is what food tastes like in nursing homes, which explains the advanced ages of the patrons that were dining there. The decor of the place feels like you're dining at grandmas house, when she was senile and could no longer recall what ingredients went into the meal. If you've ever wondered what an old school TV dinner tasted like, look no further than the Highlands House of Buffett Steakhouse. Still, it's a very unique place in spite of the food, which is why I give it 2 stars and suggest you check it out before it's gone.
I've been there a couple of times like Monday Wednesday Friday I go a lot they're close by your food is wonderful you get served quick I think you'll like it I did.
Drinks were all made wrong. Crawfish not ready and running way behind. One drink had rotten leaves in it. Just not good.

This is about half way for us to Grandpa and Grandmas and we saved it as a favorite in Waze. We will be back.
It's average. Better than Golden Coral for sure. They do have different cuisine ok the buffet depending on the day of the week.Food: 3/5
