About

This was my second visit to the restaurant, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The food provided is delectable, and the waitstaff was exceptionally friendly. It was delightful to witness one of the waitresses joyfully singing along with the background music, showcasing her lovely voice.

I went today at 11. They were charging from breakfast to lunch. Such a amazing selection. Really great price. One other person and I ate. The total came to $27. This is actually my favorite restaurant. Always wonderful service, great food, great price. Always clean. Great atmosphere for the entire family. Wheelchair friendly.
The fried chicken was very good. The guy that seasoned the corn on the cob has it down pat very good, had 6 ears. The orange soda over the vanilla icecream tops it off. Place was very clean, and Eric the waiter on top of of everything.
Wait staff was really great. Food is pretty basic as was expected, but we came for the broad selection on the salad bar. We were very happy and full when we left. I do miss their Cheese biscuits and they only had vanilla ice cream, and no bowls to be seen.

We used to really like eating here but the last 2x have been a bad experience! Food undercooked buffet was not filled kept having to ask, grill was turned off before it was supposed to be, so a mgt had cook turn it back on.. We ordered our steak medium & received well done instead?! I didn't think to take more pictures b4 food was taken especially of the still bleeding chicken.We can say our server Doogie was Awesome tried very hard to make up for all our problems so we would like to say a Big TY to him!! He was the only one who actually addressed our issues & talked to manger about them.Would like to say we will return but it definitely won't be anytime soon.Very disappointed customers at this point!!!
The staff was doing their best on the Friday evening I visited. They were generally friendly, especially the individual responsible for filling/refilling the drinks and clearing the tables. That gentleman was running around doing the lord's work to keep everyone in his section satisfied. When there was an issue with a bizarre flavor of my table mates drink he was quick to fix it.The food was bland and tasteless. The pizza was undercooked, the okra was over cooked, many of the serving dishes were empty. The steak, however, was tasty and well prepared and was the only factor deserving anything beyond a 1 star review.For 16.99 per person (not including drink) I would expect significantly higher quality than was on display. I hadn't visited a buffet since before the pandemic, if this is quality to expect, I think I'll forgo them for the foreseeable future.
