Overall Review of Kandoo 2

differentiator 43 reviews mention this

Food and salad bar draw praise

Dining, especially the salad bar, is frequently described as a standout in reviews.

Many reviewers focus on the food experience, with repeated praise for items like prime rib, burgers, pizza, and an impressively stocked salad bar. A number of comments also mention cleanliness and presentation alongside meal quality. A few reviews temper this with complaints about specific dishes being overdone or underseasoned, but the overall pattern in the reviews is positive about what comes out of the kitchen.

Prices come up as a drawback

Several reviewers say the pricing feels high for the value they received.

Across the reviews, there are repeated complaints that meals and menu items are overpriced, with some reviewers saying the amount or quality did not match what they paid. A few also mention specific situations like higher charges on add-ons or difficulty getting certain advertised items during busy periods. While some diners still recommend the food, price is one of the more consistent reasons people express disappointment.

Service ranges from excellent to slow

Service quality is mixed, with frequent praise for friendliness alongside some complaints about delays or attention.

Some reviewers describe the staff as friendly, warm, and helpful, and a number of comments highlight good service during bar and restaurant visits. Others report slower service, instances of not being acknowledged promptly, or staff struggling during busy times. There are also a few sharper complaints about service behavior and unresolved issues, which helps explain why the review impressions can vary even when the food is described positively.
