You pay up front and half the buffet line is items such as white rice, chicken rice,, pork and beans, mac n cheese, corn, greens, etc. This particular day they had fried and BBQ chicken, as well as 2 pulled pork. The also had coleslaw, small biscuits, and some pudding deserts. I would say that the fried chicken, chicken rice with gibblet gravy on top, coleslaw, and pudding desserts were the best. The pulled pork was decent but I wish they would have bums to make a sandwich. Overall, it was an okay buffet and staff was friendly.

Since I was visiting the city, and this place had such high reviews, I decided to give this place a try. First of all, staff is friendly, and the menu is straight forward. My frugal meter wasn't disturbed by the pricing at all. They are pretty reasonably priced consider the cost of food now and days. My issue is that I'm from New Orleans. Many consider my city the definition of food flavor town. Taste is very important in Creole and Cajun cooking. You may actually like this place and frequent here, but I wouldn't break my neck to go to this place. Texture wise, things were fried well and cooked to appropriate levels for me. The cornbread did not have sweetness and was very hard. Overall, much of my food didn't have a flavor pow. Chicken, ribs, yams, beans, and okra all needed love. Were is the seasoning? The food was prepared by someone that can cook, but honestly, it tasted healthy. I don't want healthy versions of soul food. I want to eat candied yams and worry about my sugar levels later. I want to eat different meats and wonder what season blend was used. It's things like this that makes me not rank this place higher. You had a little flavor in the gravy and rice. One big exception to the rule: The peach cobbler was DELICIOUS! Whomever made the peach cobbler should fix all the food. The flavor was hitting. The crust was firm but very forgiving to the utensil. This place will be gold for many people. For me, it was an average dining experience. Bring cash. They prefer cash, and your bill will be lower because of that fact.

There was a paper between the pork chop and rice with beans, I appreciate that. Now the paper under the rice and Lima beans was soggy and broke into pieces. I tried the food and it just didn't have the flavor so I quit. I wasn't going to attempt to get the pieces of paper out. I understand a bad day, they have been in that location for a while. I will try again hopefully with different results.

Very relaxing atmosphere. They were playing Christian music, which I have to say is one of the first times I've experienced that in a restaurant. I enjoyed it. I had the double smash burger with grilled onions, American cheese and bacon jam. This came with fries. I found the jam a little bit too sweet, but I'm not keen on sweet being with savory. Other than this, the food was good. The fries were excellent. Hubby had the grilled chicken with fries and mac & cheese. That also came with a biscuit. He enjoyed the chicken breast & the fries. He found the mac & cheese a little dry because of all the breading. As for the biscuit, it was dense and he prefers biscuits to be flaky. Regardless, we both would not be opposed to eating there again, trying something else on the menu, the next time we are passing through.

After landing at Myrtle Beach International Airport, my friend and I headed straight to Simply…read moreSouthern Smokehouse for lunch--and it was the perfect way to experience Southern hospitality. If you're looking for authentic Southern comfort food rather than another seafood buffet, Simply Southern Smokehouse is one of Myrtle Beach's best-known local favorites. The restaurant offers an all-you-can-eat buffet featuring a wide variety of home-style classics in a casual, family-friendly atmosphere. One of its most charming traditions is that the staff periodically break into song, creating a warm, welcoming experience that's uniquely Southern. The buffet changes daily, but during our visit it featured an impressive selection including crispy fried chicken, fried pork chops, pulled pork barbecue, smoked chicken legs, collard greens, green beans, cornbread, banana pudding, soft-serve ice cream, and peach cobbler. The fried chicken was outstanding--crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside--and the pulled pork was tender and flavorful. Personally, I tend to prefer barbecue with a deeper, smokier profile, so while I enjoyed the pulled pork, this is better described as a traditional Southern buffet than a destination for smoked barbecue. The homemade desserts, especially the peach cobbler, provided the perfect ending to the meal. The value is exceptional, especially considering the variety and quality of the food. The staff was genuinely friendly, and the singing added a fun, memorable touch that made the restaurant feel more like a community gathering than just another buffet. I also appreciated the thoughtful gesture of complimentary pocket New Testament Bibles available for guests near the entrance. If you're visiting Myrtle Beach and want to experience classic Southern cooking at a reasonable price, Simply Southern Smokehouse is well worth a visit. Come hungry, expect hearty comfort food rather than competition-style barbecue, and you'll likely leave satisfied.
