A Sad Decline from a Local Legend…read more Carolina BBQ used to be the place. Back in the day, everyone knew about it -- people would drive from all over just to get a plate. Now? I wouldn't drive across the street for it. The food has lost every bit of the flavor that made it famous. The BBQ is bland, fatty, and feels like it's been sitting around waiting for someone to remember what seasoning is. The potato salad? Completely flavorless -- someone forgot that mustard exists. And the hush puppies, once crispy little bites of heaven, now taste like fried bread that gave up halfway through. And all that grease makes it slide right thru. It's honestly sad to see a local legend fall this far. The place that used to set the standard for good southern BBQ now feels like it's coasting on nostalgia alone. Carolina BBQ didn't just lose its spark -- it lost its taste, too. And the parking lot? Please save your tires and park elsewhere. I have attached a picture for reference.

This place was very clean, warm and inviting. The bbq was delicious…read more We ate the buffet. My only issue was I wish the food was hotter. The hush puppies were just OK. We really enjoyed our meal. Love the staff.

Today I did take out. Time from paying to getting my order was about 6 minutes…read more There is a nice indoor area to order and wait. It is separate from the line for the buffet. The food is definitely worth taking home and eating it. If you have time, the buffet line is worth the price. This is a casual environment with a lot of TVs to watch. Take your time and have a relaxed meal. If you have a large group, call ahead and reserve the back room.

If you have a large party, they automatically add a 20% tip to the bill. Unlike some restaurants, the tip is pre tax. Our server was very nice and all of the orders came out correct. Being Easter weekend and the beginning of Master's week, they were busy but we'll staffed and organized. Very good restraunt.

Just look up when you enter and you too might be amazed. The place was pretty busy, however the staff were attentive and knowledgeable about the offerings. I am Always amazed when a restaurant can keep the menu fresh with specials. My truffle burger was great. A mouthful of flavors which I would expect from a burger. However, I was not a fan of the liquid cheese or whatever it was... it kind of ruined the burger a bit. The eggs were fine, nothing special, you can skip them. The beef, I didn't try because the burger stopped me In my tracks. I will be paying another visit because there are plenty other things I want to try.

This is easily the worst buffet I have ever been to. Most of the food is usually cold or lukewarm,…read morethe chicken is greasy, and much of it seems like it's been sitting out for a couple of days. They say they close at 8:30 pm, but I have been there several times at 7:30 pm and they start mopping the floors so you are smelling chemicals while you're trying to eat. It always seems like they are trying to rush you to get out so they can leave. I would give it a -5 if I could!!
