"Most of the food on the food bar was Luke warm and some of the fried chicken was cool. The collards and stewed tomatoes were not eatable. I tried the fried chicken and out of 5 pieces I was able to eat 2, the others were either cold or hard. The country fried beef was hot and good as were the hamburger patties in gravy. The cream style corn was good. I can't recommend this restaurant as a place to get a good meal."

"It’s been a while since I’ve been to a buffet and it wasn’t bad, it was fried pork chops and chicken. You can get BBQ but I think it’s an order and not on the buffet during the week?? I don’t know. Service was good and friendly and there is a bar you can sit at and watch TV."

"When reading reviews, it seems it's mixed. We went after church Sunday and noticed other "church crowd" there. On the buffet menu was fried chicken, ham and pork chops... no barbeque... In a barbeque place. I ordered off the menu. No sliced pork. I got the brisket. Lots of meat on the plate but it was smothered in sauce that was spicy and pickles. No mention of that on the menu. I had baked beans and fries as my two sides. Beans were ok and fries are, well... fries. My wife did the buffet and her fried chicken was good. Out the door with tip... $45. I understand that Fridays they feature fish and shrimp. But, I know a good place for that, so... Barbeque places should have barbeque."
