Not terrible, not great. We ordered the Lowcountry Boil with shrimp. The seasoning was not the…read moretraditional Old Bay seasoning, and the shrimp (which we ordered the large count for an added cost) was prepared fresh right in front of my husband, but tasted tough, not tender. The shrimp is not the "easy peel" we have all gotten used to; it's just shell-on shrimp, and it does have the intestine intact. Personally, we prefer the easy-peel, deveined shrimp and the Old Bay seasoning.

Staff and establishment were fine but the seafood had very little flavor. With the exception of the fish it was cooked well just no flavor. The fish was 75% batter. Some areas nothing but a flat chunk of batter. Food was hot but didn't hold up to our previous experiences here. Hushpuppies and dessert were still excellent. We will try again. Hopefully it was just a one off, bad night for the chef.

We were staying at Hamburg State Park and had to make a run into Milledgeville. We drove past this…read morerestaurant and noticed it was packed! So, we quickly yelped and saw they had tea on the table and a grits bar!! They had me at the grits bar. They had my husband at the tea pitchers on the table. So, we finished our errand and came back for dinner. It was good. It was quaint. Health score was 100. They were busy and on point. Kids had fried shrimp and chicken tenders, both got fries. My husband got the choose three platter with catfish, shrimp, and scallops with macaroni and cheese and fried corn. Scallops were nice and buttery, catfish and shrimp were exactly as he wanted. He's pretty sure the fried corn was frozen but it was still solid, nice and crispy. I had the grilled catfish with green beans and fried okra. Catfish was nicely season, tender, juicy. The okra was just as imagined and pretty sure the green beans were canned; which is fine, just surprised us. They put a ton of love into their food we figured the corn and green beans could have had some more love too! But again, still a great meal. Oh, they had amazing looking cakes, lots of love in them for sure. They look good even though we didn't taste! I snapped a couple pictures of the current menu, use this as a ball park estimate because the economy may send prices up.

Made the 30 minute drive out to Pollards Corner to have dinner here after reading good things on…read moreYelp. I can't say I would do it again. It is located in the old Maryland Fried Chicken across from Pollards Corner. It is clean and very simply decorated. Pine walls and a few Georgia Bulldog decorations and inspirational plaques. You order at the counter and they bring it to your table. On a Friday evening there were about a dozen folks eating in although there was a steady stream of to-go customers. There were three of us dining: my mama, my daughter and myself. The stars are an average of our ratings. Mama voted 2 stars, DD voted 3.5 and I voted 4. Mama and DD ordered the catfish filet choosing lima beans and squash casserole and a biscuit/collards and onion rings and a corn muffin respectively. DD also ordered the side of 3 shrimp for an extra $4.99. I ordered the fried shrimp with lima beans and squash casserole. The good: all the proteins were cooked well. The catfish was tender and flakey with a light coating and the shrimp was very well cooked and tasty. We also agreed the beer batter onion rings were well done. The okay: Mama found her lima beans "dry" and unseasoned but I thought they were fine. She didn't care for the squash casserole but I liked it and thought they had used fresh squash. DD said the collards but should have been cooked longer. The breads were all passable if on the smaller side. The not so good: we ordered a crab leg cluster on the side and it was pretty paltry. The meat was hard to get out of the shell and the promised melted butter never got to the table. We also ordered 2 desserts to share and didn't care for either. The most egregious was the banana pudding which looked like an unappetizing gray mass. DD said the banana wasn't ripe. The peach cobbler was the better of the two but after hearing folks rave about it I expected better. We didn't finish either dessert. The total with a 15% tip was $67. They close at 7:00 and serve Pepsi products and tea. Dd ordered the tea and said it tasted sour and she ended up swapping for mountain Dew. As an added note the couple next to us had a pizza that looked fabulous. They told us that they always get pizza and the crust and sauce is made in house. If I did make the drive again it would be for that pizza!

If you want to know where the locals go, this is it. Booty's has been an institution for as long as…read moreI can remember. The food is served buffet-style and the offerings are Southern home cooking. The star of the show is the fried catfish, which on my recent visit felt like it melted in my mouth. Chicken, country ham tilapia, and Brunswick stew are among other offerings. There are also desserts. My only complaint on our recent visit was that the Brunswick stew was only lukewarm. On the night we visited, there was a bluegrass band for entertainment, but ambiance is sparse. This is a place that you come to eat, not to stare at the walls. Service is friendly, but being a buffet place, there isn't a lot of interaction aside from drinks and refills.

It's a buffet, of mostly fried food, seafood. They had some really great green beans, fried okra, fried shrimp, fried fish, Brunswick stew, and biscuits. There were some other things to try, including a couple of cobblers for dessert. there were some nice young ladies, cleaning off the tables and being active in the dining room, which was nice. They were watching to make sure our drinks were filled. The food was hot and good. I'm not sure if they redid the decorations inside, but they have some old Timey things on the walls, kinda like a country place! You do have to wait in line and go through the buffet, but everybody was courteous. It's definitely worth the money.
