    Shrimp basket with battered fries
    Tricia F.

    Simple, good food. It was off the beaten path. They said they were known for their buffet and had the best fried chicken around. I got a shrimp basket with battered fries. The fries were amazing and the shrimp tasted very fresh. It was a reasonably priced meal in an area that can be pretty pricey when it comes to seafood. I definitely recommend this place!!

    Good food, giant portions, good service, nice friendly country atmosphere, very close to the interstate. What else could you ask for in a local family restaurant? We highly recommend Altman's!

    Our group eats here often. This is a very family and community friendly place. The buffet is always well stocked and Thursday is pork chops done in different ways. The ambiance is super casual and if you don't do the buffet, the items on the menu are just as good. Perfect place for large groups but get there early for lunch because parking will be scarce. And easy 5 stars from someone who eats here almost daily.

    Parking lot of vehicles told us we were on to something before we entered the door.

    See tips. Had something for everyone, but excellent seafood. Very casual off the path type of place, but worth it!

    B & J's Steaks & Seafood - This was the fried shrimp with fried oysters !! They PILE on the food !!

    Today we stopped into B&J's for lunch. I had the shrimp and my husband and son both had the…read morebuffet. There was fried fish and fried chicken on the buffet along with green beans, cabbage, Mac and cheese, rice, beans, biscuits etc with apple cobbler and ice cream for dessert. The shrimp here are excellent and always fresh. They do a dinner buffet on Friday and Saturday that has quite a bit of seafood on it as well as steaks, sausages, chicken etc. the dining room is just about always busy as it's a really popular place but the waitresses take good care of everyone. It is not a romantic spot or particularly good for small kids (crowded busy dining room with lots of people carrying buffet plates) but is perfect for people who want really good food at a good price and anyone who appreciated fresh shrimp.

    I stopped here in my way to st Simon's because I ate here many times when I lived in Brunswick…read more I got a table quickly which was a surprise because they were very busy. I debated between shrimp and oysters and the buffet. I chose the buffet because the menu indicated there was lots of different seafood the buffet and I was hoping for some vegetables too. Big mistake. There was no oysters, no scallops and only one vegetable, green beans. There was a small salad bar, so I did have some of that. The best thing was the fried shrimp and the shrimp in the shrimp boil. The deviled crab was not good.Sigh, I paid a huge amount of money and was so disappointed. The interior has not been updated at all, which was a surprise as popular as it is. Learned a hard lesson....look at the buffet before you order it. My apology....I posted the wrong picture when I wrote this review. I was catching up on reviews and clicked the wrong one. I have deleted the picture and apologize for the error.

    AMBIANCE: 3/5 I think it's just basic buffet, nothing super…read morefancy and not sad looking. Maybe a bit outdated but we're here for the food! There were lots of booths, tables and private dining areas (?) There were some areas separated from the main dining area. There's one area that was the furthest away from the food behind the check out counter. The layout was kind of weird. I say this because the restaurant is called, "golden hibachi buffet" and we didn't see the hibachi or sushi counter until we were leaving. The hibachi/sushi area is in front of the check out. It was our first time there, so when we walked in and was immediately seated in the main dining area, we only saw the buffet area and completely missed the hibachi/sushi area. Now that we know where it is it makes us wonder how we didn't see that, but because of where we were seated, we did not notice it. I wish they kinda pointed it out to us when we walked in. Like, "been here before? Hibachi over there, buffet over here" woulda helped us a lot lol FOOD: 3/5 Not gonna lie the food was decently good and they had quite the selection. They had various choices of seafood (steamed, baked and deep fried selections), favorite chinese dishes like noodles, dumplings and egg drop soup, chicken, a nice spread of desserts, ice cream, build your own hibachi noodles and nigiri/roll sushi. Once a dish ran out, it was replaced at a reasonable time. I am a big seafood fan so I enjoyed the crawfish (seasoned very well), the baked crab shell and some of the shrimps (there were a few different types!). I think the deep fried crab was a hit or miss, some were so good but some were overcooked and became a bit dry but still flavorful and delicious! SERVICE: 3/5 When we first walked in we were immediately greeted by the friendly host (older gentleman) who seated us and a separate family at the same time. Our server took a very long while to come and bring us our drinks..like we already had our first plates and began eating. He did come and ask us if we want more drinks when our cups were 90% full. Lol...like i haven't even gotten halfway yet on this cup lol it wasn't super amazing, but it also wasn't super terrible. Leaving, however, was a different story. We were waiting to pay our tab and the middle aged gentleman at the counter motioned with a head nod for us to come to the other side to pay. He didn't smile or look us in the face at all, never once said thank you. We said "thank you" again as we were leaving and he didn't budge or say anything. It's as if we were bothering him as he was listening to whatever on his ear pods..made us feel so weird as we were leaving PRICING: 5/5 We paid about $40 for two including 2 drinks. I'd say that's an insane deal considering you can literally eat as much as you want. Bathrooms were large, had 3-4 stalls and were kept clean. RECOMMEND: Overall, yes.
