This was our first time coming, the food was warm and not hot. My only complaint and regret was that I looked online at the buffet pictures and saw crab legs and to be told that we had to pay another $18.99 on top of $22.98 for the buffet was very heart breaking. We spent roughly $58 just to eat food that I could have brought from the grocery store and stayed home. Furthermore, my daughter paid $43 for her and her 6 year old son to eat, $10 is too much for the kids seafood buffet and no crab legs or crawfish was put out without paying another extra charge to get those items, I'm very DISAPPOINTED BY THIS FIRST TIME EXPERIENCE AND I WISH I COULD GET MY MONEY BACK OR ATLEAST GET A COMPLIMENTARY CRAB LEGS MEAL TO CHANGE MY DECISION IN THE FUTURE. Finally, we drove almost 2 hours from Vidalia Louisiana and it wasn't even worth the trip, so we basically spent almost $200 just to be DISAPPOINTED BY THE FOOF PUT OUT ON THE LINE. WHEN YOU SAY A SEAFOOD BUFFET IS OPEN, THEN IT SHOULD INCLUDE CRAB LEGS AS WELL.

OMG! Traveling between Memphis and New Orleans and stumbled across this gem (Poppa’s Buffet & Grill in Brookhaven, MS) because our usual stopping place for lunch in McComb isn’t open on Tuesdays. There are so many choices from chicken livers to spaghetti to beans cooked 5 different ways! My favorites were the fried chicken and yellow squash. Lots of gorgeous desserts—coconut cake just melted in my mouth. The place is huge and even though it had so many people, there was no line. The locals know there is a take out option. WE WILL BE BACK!

We stopped on our way home from New Orleans for lunch. Everything was so good, but I can’t get that potato casserole out of my mind. Go hungry, there’s tons of desserts and a huge salad bar in addition to all the delicious mains and sides.

This place serves standard southern cuisine, most of it is fried. We were in the area for an event and most of the other restaurants were closed. I did like the boiled shrimp and the hush puppies but wouldn't eat here again.

The food was awful, had no flavor whatsoever and made me sick. 🤢 I had diarrhea all night. The service was good but the dessert menu should not have been an extra $5.99. The pies seemed to be store bought and everything else tasted artificial.

Beautiful selections, the fish was a little salty for me but there was so much to choose from that was awesome I ate plenty. The place was packed so it was hard to get refills on drinks but the staff was friendly. It was worth the money!

The tea was the best thing in the place. The fish taste fresh, the greens taste like grass, the pies were dry as powder; awful waste of time and money.
