They have a nice waiting area inside that allows you to see the sushi master. We were seated at a nice booth, and the restaurant is designed in a way that makes you feel like you're at a smokehouse - there's tin roof structures over the seating area which is pretty neat. The bathrooms are located at the back of the restaurant, but you will have to wait if someone is doing a full face of makeup at the sink because there's live music that night. Our table ordered the kids corn dog, the 16oz ribeye, and the goat cheese salad. While we were waiting on our food, complimentary croissants covered in honey butter arrived to the table. They were flaky and dripping in honey butter, so I ate it with a fork to preserve my hands. The steak comes with two sides, so the side salad promptly arrived after the croissants. The steak was one of the best we've had at a restaurant, and the loaded baked potato was devoured. The corn dog turned out to be corn dog nuggets, which made it easier for my little to cut up and let the steam release. The fries were super crispy but fluffy in the middle. The candied pecan crusted goat cheese salad was exactly that. It looked like a small cheese ball of goat cheese that had been rolled in the candied pecan mixture, and then deep fried. By the time you open the cheese ball of goat cheese and mix it with the rest of the salad, there's not much texture diversity because the croutons were not crunchy. If in the area, I would definitely return but would try a different salad next time.

If you're looking for true Southern comfort food, Bazen's in Florence is a must-visit. The buffet…read morewas packed with delicious home-cooked favorites, and everything we tried was fantastic. The fried chicken was crispy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The macaroni and cheese was creamy and comforting, and the fried okra had just the right amount of crunch. We also enjoyed biscuits, collard greens, peas, cornbread, and washed it all down with some of the most delicious sweet tea around. And don't even think about skipping dessert because the banana pudding was absolutely worth saving room for! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. Their Southern hospitality added even more to the experience. There were plenty of other options on the buffet, but these were the dishes that won us over that day. If you're craving authentic Southern cooking served buffet-style in a warm, welcoming atmosphere, Bazen's is definitely worth a visit. We'll be back!

This is a fish market/ fried fish place. The fresh fish is in the front of the store where…read morecustomers can purchase and fish is fried in the back. The owner had told me that they just opened a year ago from a previous owner. We got fried Whiting fish and hush puppies. It was great and the food was fresh; however the hush puppies could have been cooked a little more. It was a little doughy but had a great taste. The Southern Hospitality was great and the prices were reasonable. My only negative is that the place is really small and there is really no place to sit and eat your food. A great place to get fresh fried fish with great Southern hospitality. When I'm back in Hartsville South Carolina I will be back.
