- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- Deep in the woods of Charlestown, Rhode Island, overlooking a picturesque lake flanked by firepits and farm animals, there's a one of a kind restaurant with a buffet that's simply mind-blowing.The Nordic is a family owned and operated destination where a meal is almost mythological. We're talking unlimited lobster. Crab. Black Angus steaks. Cakes, pies, and ice cream sundaes. All together, there are more than a hundred high end items, and that's only part of the entire Nordic experience.
Representing RI!!!!

Cool ya jets!!! Your not the only one!!!
$100 for a great meal, peaceful atmosphere and very well trained staff yes please.
Yep! 2 lobsters and a plate of oysters are over $100 anywhere else! Here, you can have as many as you can handle!
It's a lodge too tho so can u sleep the night if visiting from far away?
Thank you, and as a point of information, I've been there a couple of times and they have some great hotels nearby too.😎
I'm going here on the 18th for my birthday I'm super excited. Thanks RUclips recommendations at 1 AM
You certainly won't be disappointed and Happy Birthday!
then enjoy
The nordic is awesome... unreal the food there.. especially the deserts after... it's the best... pricey but well worth it...
Originally from Westerly, now living in Florida.
Been there, miss it, ABSOLUTELY THE BEST FOOD EVER
I love in westerly but never been there have to go one day
I think Rhode Island has the BEST food....... PERIOD and from any ethnicity. I'on know what it is. I now live in PA. The food is good but Rhody make it pop. Smh
Amazing place. Worth every penny and then some. I have been a Chef for 32 years and this place blows the doors off any place I’ve ever seen. I thought the staff would get in your way and try to slow you down in every way possible to limit consumption. Quite the opposite actually. No games , no ploys, just amazing hospitality. To Hell with Disney folks, the Nordic Lodge is the happiest place on Earth bar none.
For $111 a head and 2 hour limit y'all better not get in my way and keep those filets pumping out! 😆
May need to check this spot out.
@@juliuscaesart YOU MUST!!!
@@paulgiacovelli9754 Trying to do some math and seems worth it. I’ll be over by Westerly for a bit on this looks kind on the way? Visiting from OH
@@juliuscaesart I believe it’s $135 per person now but that includes tax and tip. Still well worth it imo. If you go enjoy every 120 minutes. I can’t wait to go back.
I've been going there for more than 35 years! Great food! Super friendly staff! 👍
Yes, but literally impossible to eat enough for that price tag to be any kind of "deal" (which buffets are typically known for).
@@GaryMillyz I think it's a great deal, for the amount of food I eat! Super delectable! 👍
I’ve been here a dozen times in my lifetime.
And I’m always amazed with the amount of food that is available.
Are you also amazed with how much less than $125 worth of food you ended up consuming?
Wow, I live in R.I. and never heard about this place.😢
Now I'll keep in mind.
Thank you for sharing. 😉
@Henchman Twenty1 😉
This Friday!!!! So excited 😁😁😁
Looks scrumptious beyond all manner of description.
It's worth every penny!!!! I can't wait to go back.
It is in my bucket list😊
The best 800 dollars I ever spent 😁 flew in Friday from Seattle just to eat....thanks RUclips I never would have known without the recommendation 👏👏
I live in NYS grew up in Cranston I have dreams of standing at this buffet! The best!!!!!
NYS??
New York State
NY is not ( state)
Ok....what is it??
Albany is the state.... And this 5 boroughs Manhattan,queens Brooklyn Bronx Staten island all this is a state
My fiancé and I saw the purple and black Phantom Gourmet car on Sunday when we came (drove in from MD). I was wondering if another segment was being filmed. This place is worth every penny. It’s ran like a well oiled machine by well trained helpful and polite individuals. He’s right, it’s a total experience. We spent well beyond the two hours here dining. Just the best buffet experience hands down. We’ve decided to make it a once a year date.
Yes, it’s pricey, but definitely worth it! Went there last summer for the first time, and I certainly wasn’t disappointed.
Place is so good
hungry now
I’m going to literally take a vacation to RI just so I can go eat at this place!!!!
Can't wait to try it some day!!!!! ❤️👍
BEEN THERE, IT'S EVERYTHING AND MORE.
I would like to take credit for the two hour limit. Back in the 80’s my friends and l would go and eat till we were almost comatose. Then hang out till we got hungry again. Lol.
Do they heavy enforce the 2 hour limit? If they do it might not be worth it.
@@ryanbahnsen6429 I’m not sure. Lol. But don’t be surprised if they do!
I took my Mother N Law and she loved it! Food was great!
I been here so many times I love it
I had heard a while back that they closed down but I'm glad to hear that they're still open
Great place ..great food ..hands down the best buffet in the country ..worth every penny
Im exited my BF taking me here for my birthday! cant wait...
I wish I could afford to go here 😢
Michelle Laroche
Me too 😭
Nor worth it I've gone every year they aren't doing that great. They have to have buses come in from other states for business. Any sane person would go to somewhere else. Unless you're really going to eat enough
@@jacobhindson2275 good point...I could buy and cook up a lot of seafood for the price of this meal.
You can! Just get a trade or degree, work, and come eat! It’s not hard to figure out.
@@bl6797
"Just get a degree" she says... I don't wanna get into the semantics of job markets in the RUclips comments section.
i would loveeeeeeeee to visit that place !!! ive heard about it for years
Looks good
IM SO EXCITED TO GO HEREREE
Love this place I really need to get out there again
it used to be called The Nordic Lodge. i miss the food back there. Twin Oaks, Cafe Itri, The Big Cheese, & Campanella's were a few of my all time favorites.
It sure was Nordic Lodge!! I soooooooo miss the fooooooood 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂. Everyone that's moved away from there all miss the food. I was at The Big Cheese almost once a week. Their huge salad with house dressing and fresh baked bread, omgoodness. Crugnale's.......( I need a minute)......
Smh. The pizza strips, broccoli pizza, spinach pizza, spinach garlic and black olive calzones, breads and pepper biscuits, I was in there almost once a week.... the Chinese food too. That's a dayumm shame
Yep R I is a lot of things but have some of best restaurants of any of all the larger States, # little Rhody!
The companies that I worked for brought us there every year. It is an awesome event!!
damn I am hungry now
$125 for the buffet is still cheaper than Nusr-et. The two hour time limit is no problem. If you can eat longer than two hours you need a psychologist and not a buffet.
Was there several times in the late 70s and early 80s when it was Custy's located in North Kingston. Haven't been to the Nordic yet but plan to at some point in the future. I wonder if it's the same family that ran Custys?
Looks beautiful!! would love to try the food !!
I like that its around water
Awesome video love it showcasing the excellent food Rhode Island has to offer. I’m in New England also and love the food. Awesome thank for the video. 💪
The best buffet anywhere
Now I want to live in RI
I always wanted to go there.
A yearly trip for us!!!
How are they doing now?
I'm from Oklahoma City one of type 5 restaurants I have ever been too!!!!!!!
I'll be there soon.
Look a nice place, I will plan a trip to RI
I’ll be heading there soon 😋
R u kidding me went to Rhode Island a lot have to find this place
I just went here!
The time limit gives me anxiety. *I'm not an anxious person.*
Super dark driving away to get out and the GPS and phones struggle for a signal.
Very true
What is the time limit?
@@danixnikki
2 hours
I’m 20 minutes away in CT and never heard of this place. I don’t do buffets, but am I correct in understanding you have to be out in two hours? Just curious.
Very much so correct. I'm disgusted how whenever the place is covered it's never mentioned. I felt rushed and didn't even need 2 hours but was *always afraid they'd come over to tell us TIME TO GO.* ;
Wow. Those are prime entrees. I’ll get there someday.
King crab is back?
King Crab Rules
A buffet would be nice,especially if space time and good organisations is of concern.
I have been here at least ten times in my life. Each time I go back is better than the last. After you eat here, every other buffet, including those on the best cruise ships, will pale in comparison. That is the only bad part about eating here. All other buffets will be a HUGE disappointment afterward. It is quite simply the VERY best that this planet has to offer as far as buffets are concerned. You will need a good road map though. If you are coming from Connecticut, you will find yourself making turns that are sometimes frustrating. The roads getting there are VERY tricky. Once you find it though, you will thank your lucky stars. When I first started going, the price was around $40.00/person. Now, it is over $100.00/person and it is WELL worth it. I have never heard of even ONE person complain about the price though. You will see why after you go.
Ya baby
Where’s a good place to stay close to this restaurant if coming from another state?
Cant be unlimited when it's 2hrs max only lol
How far in advance do you have to make reservations?
I went a month ago and it worth the 100 dollars I can’t wait to go back
no more king crab!!!
I remember years back when it was like $75 that was totally worth it, even the $100 now is worth it. Last time me and my buddy went and got all stoned in the parking lot then ate our asses off for 2 hours.... I could barely move on the way home I was like food drunk
If they have meatballs in gravy I'm going.
Do they do birthday celebration?
Yeah looks good but that's too much money $100 for 1 person
100$ unlimited filet mignon and lobster and more
Better keep those filets pumping out! I'll eat 2 at a time!
may to December 15th
If have PB&J sandwich’s im so going... worth the $95
Is it still safe to go?
My boy Kyle in the video
The food is delicious. But I think it's a shame all that you pay that you can't take food home. More food gets wasted because people can't take food home.
The Nordic is missed..I wish they had takeout...I'm in Seattle
This looks kinda fake....
It is definitely real
then go by to see
Chase Arment Are you the kid from Home Alone????
Lobster buffet. unlimited lobster for Two hours. price is about $100.
Lobster is overcooked, desserts are not made by them selves. so....
My opinion of this restaurant is 3.5/5
I just don't like over cooked lobster. the lobster texture is like rubber. what do you expect? it is lobster buffet. you can eat unlimited over cooked lobsters for two hours.
young c thomas paik stop complaining, you don’t like it then don’t go back...people must enjoy it, it’s packed all night every night
young c thomas paik I am a Chef and I had a great experience. No rubber on my plate. Everything was top notch. You are probably one of those people who like to whine about everything just to be heard. Make it the Nordic or ..... make it yourself.
