My omlet was good, but my sons cheese omlet was unedible, it was basically shredded cheese with a hint of egg. My buscuits were burnt on top and bottom. Pancake was tasteless. Spent $25 on food we didnt eat. Only enjoyable part was oir waitress.

It’s good for one person if you can eat a lot. Buffets to me are for people that can eat more than one plate and I can’t. The salad was delicious! The chicken tenders were very small that we ordered from the menu for my son for $1.99 each. For me and my two kids we paid $36 including tax and tip for lunch, which is a little high but I guess buffets are not worth it to us. Great choice otherwise! The waitress was very sweet and the owner as well. He gave my kids some quarters to get a fake tattoo from the machine

There’s nothing better than spending time in Manchester, TN and eating at the wonderful “meat & three” buffet at Emma’s!
Their home-cooked food, from the many entrees like fried chicken, meatloaf & fish to the various sides & fresh salad bar will comfort the whole family! Save room for dessert! The peach cobbler is a fave!
The staff is very friendly and attentive.
I enjoy the fact that Emma’s is always busy at lunch (but never “crowded”) and full of folks from around the area. It’s a happy crowd.

Emma’s Family Restaurant is the best all you can place I’ve ever had! COUNTRY FRIED STEAK! Wow! It is second only to mine. I’ve never had it at a food buffet. Fried chicken and fish were perfect. The white peppered gravy was so good. For desert, I had peach cobbler, pudding with vanilla wafers, mmm like when I was a child. It’s my second time here, and it was just as good at before. Consistency is important. We will come back for more again

Been a couple of times in the last few weeks.
Always open seats and the staff is extremely polite and never let ya run low on drinks.
The western omelette was HUGE and tastes great. (Ask to add jalapeños for a little kick.)
Buffett is open Fridays and Saturdays.
Oh, and they have something most kids haven’t ever seen in the restaurant. (Check out the photos)

WOW is all i can say!! the food is amazing, the vibes were chill, and it’s a great price for all you can eat!! can’t beat that one bit. so pleased and pleasantly surprised! there was also some lil feral kitties that i’m assuming the employees have been feeding and i think that’s just lovely.

My friends and I stopped here for breakfast but one decided to have the lunch buffet instead. She enjoyed the variety of vegetables, the fried chicken and the peach cobbler. She really liked the salad bar variety. My other friend and I had breakfast. She had French toast and bacon, I had biscuits and gravy with fried potatoes. Both meals were delicious and plentiful. I would suggest trying the place the locals go to as opposed to a chain restaurant.

What a pleasant surprise. We were traveling and so hungry! We chose it over Cracker Barrel which is across the street. The interior is older but the food piping hot and everything we had was delicious. I asked a man at another table if he was from there and he said all the locals do. Good food and good price. The friend chicken was a hot item. Would stop again!

Last year we ate here & it was great. We came back this year & had the opposite experience. We had breakfast & the coffee & bacon were good but the pancakes were tough & had been sitting a while, the hash brown patty was so greasy you couldn’t eat it, the toast was so cold the butter didn’t melt on it and the eggs were fair at best. The service was reasonable and no one asked us how our meal was to give me the opportunity to express my disappointment. Sorry to say we will not be back.
