    Quaint little country style buffet that reminds me of good ol fashioned southern food, delicious! Affordable along with friendly service, can't beat it for the price. Ahhhhhh welcome back to the North! BUT no sweet tea, why not?!?! Come on peeps, sweet tea is not JUST for the South!

    Absolutely disappointed! For the amount of money it costs $12.49 a plate there should of been more a food selection. Also the cottage cheese was spoiled and tasted awful and the meatloaf had too much oatmeal in it and the sauce was not tasty at all. Another customer complained about the same thing! The only thing good out of tonight's visit was the excellent customer service by all staff I came in contact with.

    Hands down as far as eating at a buffet, this place is a thousand times better than Golden Corral and they don't have nearly as much food as GC but what they do have is always fresh and filled and that's important!  There restaurant isn't serving 50 different dishes because they can but they ensure what is being served is great!  The restaurant is clean and the staff is always nice!  4 stars instead of 5 because it is pricey but quality does cost so I'm ok with that!

    Our waitress, Megan, was amazing.  Unfortunately the food left a ton to be desired.  The meatballs tasted like sugar.  The potatoes were fake.  The only things I ate that tasted good was the bread pudding and ice cream.  They seriously need to make changes to the buffet.

    Very basic buffet, service was very good, very attentive. On the down side, yucky carpeting.
