The Vibe: The Global Palate
Treasure of The Sea @ Sule Grand
Calling all seafood purists. The Eravati is pulling out the big guns: lobsters, oysters, and crab. It’s a surf-and-turf dream with a side of Tex-Mex (yes, there are quesadillas). It’s a great spot if you are downtown and want a premium buffet experience without the pretension.
