The food was cold. Not a big selection for the price. The service was great. I will not eat there again.

Just ate breakfast here, I always love to eat at Shoney’s, but this experience wasn’t the best. They open at 6 a.m. we got there at 6:20 a.m. the food should have at the very least been fresh and hot. No, it was cool, not cold, not warm. So I can tell either it wasn’t fresh cooked or their table wasn’t working right. The eggs were hot. Our server was not as attentive as most Shoney’s have. She wasn’t unfriendly, not nice, just ‘I’m here today’. The floors are sticky and are in need of a good scrub with clean water. Not a big selection at the bar either and that wouldn’t bother me if everything didn’t taste like it was cooked in old grease to me. In my opinion, the person who owns this Shoney’s needs to come in and revamp. It could be a great place to eat. I recommend eating somewhere else, I wish we had waited for Jackson.

Gave it a 1 because staff was friendly, however the food was less than satisfactory. The place could use a good cleaning. We ate about 5:30 pm so expected fresh food. Maybe we were too early, most of it was dry and flavorless. Lots of seafood which is challenging to serve buffet style. Hubby tried it, I stuck with the salad bar. Ate here only because it was next to our motel. Will drive further next time we go through.

Absolutely horrible. First time here and I’m never coming back. Nasty tables when they sat us down, wasn’t even cleaned. First, the waiter gave me a used straw for my drink. Then I asked for sweet tea. Waited forever for it and when I got it, it wasn’t even remotely sweet. I ordered there “signature” 8oz steak, ordered medium rare, and came back well done… twice. After I complained about the steak she took it with an attitude. Tasted horrible. After all that, I asked for a refill for my “sweet tea” and she took it and never came back for twenty minutes. When calling out for a waitress they just look at you and keep walking. Shut this crap hole down. You call this place a restaurant? How is this place even open? If you are reading this, please go elsewhere.

The food was hot and fresh. It was also flavorful. Even the cold salads were good. The fruit was fresh also. My only suggestion is to improve the lighting in the restaurant and to make sure to clean all the booths and Windows during down time. But if crumbs and finger smudges don’t bother you…this place is a good BUFFET option on the early side of the lunch rush.

Asked waitress for more tea and never got it. Another employee had been sitting and talking to another customer the whole time we had been there. This employee went to the back and got some fresh lettuce for the customer she had been talking to. When she came back the customer said that’s too much,so she got up and got a salad plate and reached into the plate employee brought out with her hand and got what she wanted and employee then dumped the rest of the lettuce into the salad bowl on the salad bar. REALLY??? She saw the look on my face and asked if she could help me. I told her no. When getting to the register she came up to ring me up and I told her my ticket was wrong. The waitress only charged for 1 buffet not 2. I paid for the 2 buffets but the food was all way overcooked and the boneless grilled chicken breast you could not even chew it, it was so hard. Use to like to eat there but NEVER AGAIN.

Marilyn served me well. Came here at 12:45pm. Buffet was good. Okra & tomatoes always good. So was the steamed cabbage. Pinto beans were OK. Catfish good. Corn on cob very good. Mashed potatoes good, but gravy a little salty. Dessert was fried chicken, always look forward to it.

The waitress Marilyn is one of the best. Service was great. Meal was alright. Had a long fake whitish blond hair in my salad. Which was gross. Saw the lady with the hair putting food out. They should’ve been wearing hair nets. Accidents do happen so I didn’t say anything but just be careful.

The lights were out on this day but the guys I were with still wanted to stay, so we stayed and I’m glad we did the waitress and staff that day made it one of the best convenient places to eat while being inconvenienced with out power, with some delicious just out the fryer chicken and oh it was good, the tea was sweet and the right chaser for the chicken. Only thing for me is that they need more buffet items on the line.

Had to wait 10 minutes to get a glass of water and order the buffet, while we were bypassed by 5 servers who turned their heads when walking by our booth. Finally got to the buffet only to find the food was sub-par. Asked the waitress about strawberries (the only reason for stopping), and she says they’ve been out for 2 weeks! Are you kidding me? Kroger is just down the street. They have strawberries. Get to the check out counter and had to stand in line while one cashier waited on 20 people. It wasn’t because they were short staffed. There were at least 6 servers/manager in the checkout area, and one was even eating her dinner as she leaned on the counter. I wish I had read the rotten reviews before I wasted my time here.
