"Stopped by on our way home from a weekend trip…. Absolutely amazing food and these ladies are SO sweet! We will absolutely be back! Room to park with a boat trailer next door to the restaurant."
"Don't sleep on the buffet. Absolutely delicious. Staff were so nice. You get a salad bar as well. To top it off, they had really good iced tea! I highly recommend them. Will be my go to when traveling that direction."
"Incredible!! Buffet is like Sunday dinner at Grandma's. Hot food is hot, cold food is on ice. They have hamburgers and other non-buffet options. Am bicycling from San Diego Cali to St.Augustine Fl and this is the freshest tastiest meal I've come across! Nice friendly staff and patrons."
