Never judge a book by its cover. That's all I had to take away from our brunch at Chef's In Downtown Cafe. Honestly, I wasn't expecting much of the food when I saw the outside storefront of the restaurant, and definitely wasn't expecting much when I stepped inside and saw the decor. The price was a little high, but I understand it after seeing the different prices for different days(honestly a smart move). It's buffet styled restaurant, and not an order at the table, which caught me off guard, and honestly, made me a little suspicious, as I don't typically trust buffets being fresh. Boy, was I wrong. My first plate consisted of a fried chicken thigh, mashed potatoes, cheesy pasta, and green beans. I wish I was exaggerating, but it was the best piece of fried chicken I had in Jonesboro. It wasn't too greasy, and the chicken was so tender it fell right off the bone. The mashed potatoes were thankfully freshly made and not made from instant mashed potatoes and seasoned in my favorite way: a lot of black pepper. The green beans were a mix of sweet and savory. The cheesy pasta could have definitely used a lot of seasoning, because without me adding salt and pepper, it was pretty bland, but everything else made up for it, especially the roast beef. I saw my boyfriend get it, took a bite, and on my second plate, I went straight for it. It was even better than the chicken, but the chicken was a close second. The beef was so soft, I knew it had been slow cooking for ages, as great roast beef should be. And the juices pouring out of it were so delicious. I got my usual sides but swapped the pasta for the stuffing they had. The stuffing was a lot more grainy than I am used to, but it was good nonetheless. I definitely hope to come back here!

Wonderful home cooked food. Super friendly staff! Amazing desserts too! Will come back!
We enjoyed the food today but the service was horrible. We got takeout and our food sat for 10 minutes because they didn’t call our name. When I questioned the hostess her reply was “I am too busy to turn around and know who’s food is sitting there!” Wow just wow!!!! And takeout is dished up for you with limited selections! Maybe sit down all you can eat would be friendly service to the customer.
