The only buffet I will go to is one where the servers stand behind the line and put the food on the plate for you. If they are going back to shared utensils dipped in open serving containers, nope, not doing that.

I doubt they would do this for “standard” guests, but they have always done this for people with allergies/food concerns like you… you can have safe food prepared just for youI would like it if it offered a more varied array of food but I will say that buffets lost their luster for me after learning I'm sensitive to cross contamination.
I wonder if they could both offer table service/family style as well as a self-serve buffet?
I may be in the minority, but I'm happy about this. We've always enjoyed buffets, not for the amount of food but the variety. Tusker House is a great example of variety that was negatively impacted by going family style.
Luckily I have no filter, therefore no problem speaking up.Me, too. I think people that like them are less likely to speak up. I've seen words like 'disgusting' applied to buffets.
I don't eat that much, but I love variety. So, family-style is the worst of both worlds. You get the price of all-you-can-eat, but selection of ala-carte without the ability to take my leftovers home or share a plate with DD.
Even when they serve cafeteria style, the selection is more limited than self-serve. Each server can only handle so many dishes.
