    First time visiting girls early dinner trip...we visited on a Friday for the seafood buffet...we were a little early so we had a salad from the buffet and sat on the deck outside..it was lovely nice breeze, ceiling fans going and about 9 cats stop by to greet us but never came close...the salad was delicious and the servers let us know when the buffet opened so we can come inside to make out plates. Everyone was super nice and attentive . The food was hot andeven though majority was fried the food was batter in different batters and fresh grease. I had frog leg for the first time and they were great and taste just like chicken it's not a myth. I had cat fish that u actually like no fishy taste of old grease taste. I was impressed by the freshness ofwill most definitely visit again.

    If you love country food, especially southern country food, you need to eat here. The food is extremely good, very tasty. I went on a sunday and I had turkey, ham, dressing, gravy, cranberry sauce, collard greens, some more vegetables and I finished it up with banana pudding. At a five stars, I would give it a seven. Reminded me of home.

    We had the lunch buffet on a Monday I’m sure it varies. Nice salad bar and the grilled pork chop was very good. Mac & cheese was also good. They had a wide variety of Southern sides. Ice cream and a dessert bar.

    The food was delicious. First time here--- just a visitor stopping by. Today was a seafood buffet and the food was fresh. Sam was our waiter and she was nice sweet woman. I truly enjoyed her service. This is also a buffet style restaurant.

    Best southern comfort food I've ever had! Make sure to save room for the outstanding desserts and the price was less than fast food!

    Just Awesome! Everything I tried from the seafood bar was good. From frog legs to shrimp (multiple ways) to deviled crab. All the usual sides but I didn’t make room for those. They looked great but I can’t say either way. Banana pudding and Peach cobbler was top notch! I’m so full I can hardly walk! lol We will most definitely stop here every time we make it to the area. Service was top level as well. The staff kept food in all the bins and drinks in our cups.
