And the mic hit the floor....no need for more words but 85 character limit. Love rays and so do the kids.

Hmmm... it's not really a food court. Just 1 food station and no indoor mall as the sign suggests. Although the food might be very good, we decided to go somewhere else.

Great buffet and really good fried chicken along with everything else. Very clean place. I'll be back.

Great home style buffet smaller than Golden Corral but in my opinion better quality food and good service you really can not beat the buffet price for how good the food is lots of space and roomy too

The food is good and it's locally owned. We eat there 3-4 times a year but are never disappointed. They grind, cut, chop, etc all their patties, French fries and sweet potato fries. Haven't heard a complaint about them from the locals.

So, this is a spacious, relatively spare buffet/cafeteria style eating place. You have a good selection of items, that range from REALLY good (the vegetables including cooked cabbage, collard greens, carrots NOT crusted in brown sugar), to pretty good. I had the meatloaf, it was ok, and the cheese enchiladas, which have a GREAT sauce to them, but were pretty thin on the filling. That may be an inconsistent result, I only had one, but the sauce was so good I sure wished I had more filling in it. You can eat ALL you want, they also had deserts that I didn't partake of as I had business to do after lunch and didn't want to get lethargic as deserts sometimes do to me at lunch, but they looked good. The salad bar was pretty basic but the leafy green was Romaine and very fresh. What will get you is the price. It's @ $14.00 per person. To me considering especially how little I had, that I had to serve myself, and the school cafeteria style tables and seating, that seemed a little steep. A cafeteria of course charges by item on any pass you make so maybe it's a decent deal, if you're really hungry. It was quick, I'll give them that, and yeah it was pretty tasty, especially the veggies.

I'm giving 3/1/2 stars the food was Good but the customer service wasn't up to par no one greeted us at the entrance they are not using plastic gloves and you can serve yourself the buffet is $11.99 and drink is included however when you get the check it has an additional charge for credit card payment plus tax is this legal it's like being punished for paying with your credit card this is WRONG

Was a delicious aLl you can eat buffet that a local took me to. Would definitely go back if I'm in town again.

Love this place! Their food is delicious and its fair pricing. I definitely recommend this place. They also have a buffet section thats seperate from the carryout section. Their hot dogs are beyond the size of a normal hand and its super cheap too! Our burger came with fries and a drink for 3.99! What a deal right?! It also came with a chip or cookie. Staff were very friendly and helpful on choices. Thank you for a great service and delicious food!
