"Eaten at the Grandview Lunch buffet so many times and it's always really good. This time was no exception with many new offerings available on the buffet and also a lot of the old favorites also available. They have a good selection of Thai, Northern Thai, International and Healthy options, before checking out the great mix of desserts also from around the world and local fruits."
