Customer Reviews

"Ok buffet"

- Gina J.

"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."

- Lisa P.

"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"

"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."

"Visted 11/15/2025. Best Restaurant in North Carolina. Always perfect in all they do. All you care to eat prime rib, snow crab legs, fried oysters, and buffet bar and dessert bar for only $59.99. Please check them out they are very customer friendly."

- Glenn B.

"When we walked in we were sat immediately. Very friendly waitress who got our drinks right away and went out of her way to ask if we'd like lemons for our water, and always made sure to ask if we'd like a refill. The buffet had many options and it seemed to be pretty fresh. The food wasn't the most flavorful and they kept restocking it up to 10 minutes until close which we were very surprised to see. There wasn't much of a crowd when we went during dinner which was good because it wasn't too noisy. Good service and food, I would recommend."
