Southern-style fare, including all-you-can-eat crab legs & a buffet option, offered in low-key digs.

Madison’s in Sneads Ferry delivers an outstanding dining experience from start to finish. The customer service was excellent – attentive without being intrusive – and we never needed to ask for anything during the entire meal. Our server checked on us the perfect amount, creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.
The crab legs were fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly, and the hot bar stayed consistently stocked, hot, and fresh throughout our visit. The food quality, cleanliness, and overall restaurant atmosphere make this a top seafood destination in Sneads Ferry.
If you’re looking for fresh seafood, great crab legs, excellent service, and a restaurant that truly delivers value for the price, Madison’s is absolutely worth visiting. Highly recommended.

The service was great. I didnt like anything on the miniature buffet so I didnt eat anything here. Our waiter had numerous recommendations of items off the booths such as the kids menu tenders and the 20.00 steaks, but i passed. I did get a diet soda and the nice waiter kept it full. My family ate but they said it wasnt anything special. I most likely wont be back.

Overall this place is just ok. Not terrible but not what I would call good either. If I wanted to get sea food I would find another location for sure. The staff were very friendly and that’s about all this place has going for it. For 19.99 you can get the sea food buffet and that’s not a bad price for what it is. 50.00 if you want crab legs. Reminder on the crab legs , they don’t keep them in the buffet so you have to wait for your waitress to come around and ask if you want more. Then you have to wait for them to come. If you eat a lot of crab legs you will be there for hours waiting and getting a few each time. We had a party of 7 . 3 got crab legs and 4 got the buffet

My stomach had issues after eating here, the food seemed cheap and not flavorful at all. My mother wouldnt dare eat anything off her plate because it looked terrible. My families dining experience was a crappy compromise for both seafood and food for the kids. Not to mention how little choices you have, and how beat up the place looks.

Delicious food at good prices. The steak is prepared perfectly, and the buffet is a great value. The staff is friendly and fun. The restaurant is clean and so is the bathroom. The parking lot has a lot of spaces and the building is easily accessible for handicapped individuals.

We were visiting Sneads Ferry for a few days, and came across this place. We were immediately greeted, the staff was very kind, as we requested to go boxes from the food bar. each of us tried a variety of foods from the bar from vegetables, fried chicken, ribs, brunswick stew to chicken and dumplings, and dessert. Everything we got off the bar was great! Everybody in our group was very happy with their choices. There was no leftovers. the only thing negative that I have to say is that they over fried the okra it was a little hard and dry-crunchy. Otherwise everything was really good.

Awesome food at a great price….you can’t beat the lunch buffet for $6.99. Everything was fresh and delicious. The BBQ ribs just by themselves are worth the price. Definitely will be a regular stop when I am in the area. Can you open a location in Jacksonville? 🙂

First when you get to the front entrance, signs reads Buffett all you can eat 12.99. There are two steam lines with food. The shrimp was small and salty. Could not eat the spare ribs due to being tough and cold. The rice looked like it was left over from lunch. Lima beans were not hot, hush puppies were hard, left over from lunch. The health rating is 91, sorry food. Will not be back. When I went to pay the waitress range us up at 12.99 then she asked did you get seafood ? Well she then charged us $49 for two seniors. Do not waist your monies on this place. We arrived at 4:20pm to eat.
