On the day of my visit, Fried Chicken was on the menu, and I went to town on a few pieces. The food is always fresh, hot and plentiful at Penny's, and I've been coming here since it opened. For the value, you can't beat an AYCE lunch, and it's very reasonably priced. The famous Penny always stops by our table to say hello, and the staff clear plates and refill drinks without you having to ask.

I travel with a Service Dog and this place gets a 4 paw salute. No issues at all. Really makes me feel welcome. You go up to the counter and place your order. We both got the buffet with drinks. They are in the midst of remodeling, and the cashier let us know where we could sit. She was very nice and friendly. We took our drinks and tray to a table behind the buffet. Mom filled her plate first, then I followed suit. I got back to the table and mom is raving about the fried liver. Not my thing at.all...but she was impressed. I tried some meat loaf, taters and gravy. Delicious!! I also got some chicken pot pie..perfect flakey crust and creamy chickeny goodness. This whole time, Tricia (sp?) Our waitress was a rock star! I never had to ask for a refill and she whisked the used plates away in a timely manner. I spoke to some of the cook staff and they were all extremely pleasant and knowlegable about their dishes. It's been very rare for us to find such outstanding service on this trip. I asked to speak to the manager on duty, and I thought I heard Tricia's heart drop. It's too bad that people feel that way. I believe in praising great service and she delivered some of the best in 6 states! The owner of the facility has done an awesome job of hiring some great people! They should be very proud of them! Oh, and that delicious meatloaf? They make it from scratch the day before to let the flavors meld! Sooo very good!! I only wish we lived closer!

We had a group event reserved a week in advance. We showed up and nothing was ready…read more The waitress said they had been busy and didn't have time to set it up. I said, "I can," meaning I could move a few tables. Apparently she decided I meant I was going to make a man sitting in the corner move. Instead of asking me what I meant, she followed me around telling everyone that I said I was going to force him to move. She said it several times. I never said that. The man ended up getting up and leaving because SHE made the whole situation uncomfortable. It was ridiculous and embarrassing. She embarrassed me in front of a whole group of people over something I never even said. I was visibly shaking and asked for a manager, and apparently there wasn't one there. Then later she came over to our area, even though she wasn't working that section, and brought silverware only to me. I still have no idea what that was about. The whole thing could have been avoided if she had just asked what I meant instead of making up a story and repeating it to everyone.

The broccoli chicken was delicious and the broccoli was perfectly cooked. Everything we had for dinner was piping hot with the exception of the breaded fried zucchini (barely lukewarm but perfectly crispy). All selections we tried were delicious. The ONE middle-aged lady collecting dirty plates & filling drinks for the entire restaurant was phenomenal. I found her and handed her a nice cash tip before we left. She is definitely overworked and under appreciated. The man at the register was talking to a young male employee in another language -- across the restaurant. As in one guy was up by the front door and the other guy was at the furthest buffet table (desserts), so we got to listen to them holler back & forth at each for almost our entire meal. THAT was weird... and rude. We were exhausted and famished after 10 hours on the road, a peaceful meal would've been nice. As I said, the food was good so at least there was that. The variety of ice cream for dessert was great, but the 2 available scoops were soaking in a cloudy container of gray water. I just used an ice cream teaspoon to dig down deep & dish up. Pocahontas is a halfway point for us on many travels, this was our first time visiting China Star. Their hours are perfect for when we roll in at the end of a long day - I'd much rather have fresh stir fry than fast food. We'll be back.

Slow & unorganized. The Decor is small town rec center with mediocre air conditioning. Seemed popular with locals and older folks.
