The service was fantastic! The food was mediocre at best. The salad bar was fully stocked and plentiful. The spinach however was terrible on the salad bar. They literally opened the bag and dumped it out and put it on the salad bar, not rinsed or anything. It tasted like dirt, spinach is my favorite vegetable but it was not edible. All of the hot bars were full. It all looked tasty but everything that I got was extremely salty. I was looking forward to a bite of steak but it was basically still raw so I passed on that. The pinto beans and macaroni and cheese was very good. I absolutely didn't eat $20.00 worth of food. We had a party of 38 and the two servers were fabulous. I wish I could remember their names. I have been looking forward to eating here and I hate to say that I was highly disappointed.Also, there was a worker in the bathroom that came straight out of the stall and walked right passed the sink and out the door so that was quite gross.

Great place to eat. I really enjoy the salad bar. The blackened fish also very good. That and the baked beans with some potatoes and I'm good to go.

Had been told to give them a try by a friend while talking about going to Golden Corral. So i give them a try. The food was bland and certain items not really even warm. They had a decent crowd though. The waitress was super nice and friendly. The best part was the salad bar which was good but others where just ok. For the food esp id rather have the corral..

The food tasted absolutely horrible, there was no Mac and cheese for my nephew to eat, who is only 10 months old and the workers didn’t even mention that they closed at 9 PM knowing that we had others on their way. I’m not from around there so I didn’t even know what time they closed but they could have mentioned that they closed in 30 minutes knowing we had other people on the way.

Best froed chicken livers!!! Always cooked and seasoned to perfection. Breakfast omelets cooked to order are delicious and their seafood salad is the bomb!

This place is overpriced for the very mediocre food you get. It cost $31 for the 2 of us. The vegetables are tasteless - pretty sure straight out of a can. Salad bar is ok but macaroni salad is horrible. Desserts are disgusting - prepackaged stuff, nothing homemade. Yes there is variety but quality is missing. The best thing i had was salad, and the fried fish, but i’ve had much better fried fish elsewhere. This place is like a western sizzlin if you’ve ever eaten at one of those. Save your money, there are much better restaurants in the area.

It is a country style buffet with a very large and excellent salad bar. It does have many different items so you can find something that you like out of the very large buffet. They also have ice cream and good desserts for a buffet. It is probably one of the more reasonably priced

My husband and I stopped on our way through. The building was very eye catching so we looked it up and it decent reviews… once inside the first thing we noticed is it seemed to be a nice place and it smelled wonderful… unfortunately the food was awful! The fried fish tasted of nothing more the grease. The Mac and cheese was smoochy… the meatloaf was pink inside…the cabbage was good and so was the instant potato’s… the steak was extremely dry and old. it was a bit more like jerky and I like my steak well done. I did try some freash prices of chicken chunks that were also pretty tasty. The corn is a combo of creamed corn and regular sweet corn. Our server was nice and noticed right away our drinks were low and brought new promptly.

Macaroni and cheese was mushy and overcooked, steak was tough,turkey was cold and potatoes were under seasoned, only thing any good was the popcorn shrimp and salad.surely not worth 30 dollars and driving 35 miles for, be a long time before I come back and the soup looks like it's been sitting for hours
