Oct. 11 2025… dinner time.
We called ahead to see if we could even go there cause we’re in a KW semi and was told “Absolutely!! When?”.
We gave them a time frame & when we did get there- the owner himself met us outside as we was pulling up and he directed us to his back lot… where he had already opened up the security fences that protect the grounds for us to get in, get turned around & get parked to come in & eat…
WE SURE APPRECIATED THAT!!
Once again, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
It’s an old school building!!
We loved that!!
Hubby & I had several conversations about the building itself as we ate dinner.
High nostalgia factor here- for real.
It was great.
The food was delicious- they had LOTS to choose from, the place was clean, the price was reasonable, the staff was so friendly and the owner was so very nice & helpful.
We had absolutely no complaints, both of us left with our bellies full & we had an enjoyable sit down meal before we rolled on.
We had an overall pleasant experience & we hope to come back again if we’re ever again in the area!
Once again- Thank y’all so much!!

Wow! This place is amazing. Everything tastes just like your Grandma made it in her kitchen. Wish I lived closer but will most definitely stop in anytime I’m out that way. Thank you for a very satisfying meal. Your staff was very friendly and we could see that you all truly work together as a team.

I had no idea this restaurant has been there for five years… We would have been through sooner. They have an excellent buffet with choices that change depending on the days. It’s affordable and the quality of food is 100! The owner came out and introduced herself. She does all the cooking and baking. She and her work family are all so very kind and funny. They also have menus you can order from. It’s worth a stop! It’s my new favorite place. Don’t let the looks fool you either. It’s in an old school building. When you walk in they have a numerous collection of wrestling memorabilia and autographs. It was enjoyable especially to see a Brutus Barber Beefcake’s autographed picture and Jake the Snake Roberts.

First time here. Wonderful experience. Food was hot, fresh and delicious. Homemade desserts and large salad bar. Best meatloaf ever and fish was tender and moist. Price was very reasonable, great value for money.
Entire staff was very friendly and service was incredible!! Will definitely be back.

This place was absolutely great!! Lots of great food and lots of wrestling pics of well known famous wrestlers on the walls. I recommend this place. So glad we found it. The staff was super friendly and very attentive to our needs. Please if you are hungry and up for a buffet go here!!! We will go back for sure.

Loved it! Fresh food, friendly smiles, and old school building brings back memories.
Not to mention the themed table items.
Well worth the drive off the beaten path!!!

Ceiling Fans running, rather cool. Some food on buffet did not retain it’s heat. Good flavor & nice selection of delicious foods. Nice salad bar & desserts.

What a hidden gem! Home cooked food in buffet format? Yes please. There were a ton of options and everything was PHENOMENAL. 10/10. We live up by St Louis and we’re just passing through, but I foresee another trip down here just for lunch in our future! Don’t sleep on this place. Seriously!

Found Ringside from a state road sign. When we arrived the parking lot was not inviting, thankfully we took the leap and went in for a late lunch. Great food and extremely friendly staff. A must stop for professional wrestling fans for the conversation and decor. We found it well worth a very short drive off the interstate for a lunch/dinner.
