    The buffet is buffet food. Once you've had it, you're good for a long while. I would like to go…read moremore often because Lexington doesn't have many places to eat, and the majority of them aren't anything special, but until they offer a variety instead of the exact same food every time, I will only go on occasion when someone asks me to go with them. I've found that sometimes food on the buffet is too salty (and I like salt). Once the turnip greens were so salty that I had to spit them out. It was as if someone had poured a whole cup of salt in them. The catfish is also usually very salty. Nothing on the buffet is labeled, so you may have to ask about some of the meat if it's your first time to go. The salad bar is very small and minimum, so I prefer to get slaw instead, but I no longer do that. Sometimes the slaw had a strange taste and smell as if it was going bad. Once it was so completely soured that it almost made me gag. I let the server know and she just took it away. Toward the end of the meal, she brought another bowl and said it was freshly made. She never apologized. She actually acted put out over it. Needless to say, I've learned to be cautious with the turnip greens and slaw. The dessert bar is terrible. I mean that. If you like pudding with whipped cream on top (they usually have chocolate and banana), and sometimes a low-quality overly sweet store- bought cobbler, then you'll like it. They also have ice cream, but it isn't the smooth kind. It is more like the type you make at home. My advice is to order off the menu. You will not have the variety, or the amount, but you will have a better meal. The location is good. The parking is good. It's a large place so you can usually get a table pretty quickly.

    The food was absolutely delicious. Our waitress was awesome and the rustic interior was superb…read more Everything we got was great.

    It's been years since I've visited Casey Jones. I was in Jackson for a work trip and I brought the…read morefamily along. We were excited to go. It was so nostalgic. I loved visiting the store with all of the cool souvenirs and other little trinkets. They also had lots of cool stuff for the kiddos and all of the old school candy for us. On to the food and service! Everything was just lovely. Our server was so amazing and would check on us often throughout our visit. Not only was she kind, but the hostess and the cashier that took our payments. The food was delicious. I had the fish, baked chicken, roast, and fried pork chops for my meats. All of them were seasoned to perfection. For my sides, I had the spinach casserole, greens, mac and cheese. I enjoyed my veggies (so did baby boy, lol). The sweat tea to top it off tasted homemade. It reminded me of the tea my grandmother would make back in the day. Added bonus...the play area for children. My baby boy had an amazing time playing! Great experience!

    What a fun stop to get a bite to eat and stretch your legs! We were going to do lunch at whatever…read morechain restaurant was available off the exit until we saw a billboard for Casey Jones Village. I'm so glad that we came here instead. I can totally understand why field trips and tour busses stop here. They have a restaurant, general store, a museum, garden, church, little walking area and a train. We spent an hour here and could've easily spent an hour or two more. The food was typical southern comfort style, hot and fresh and hearty. The staff were friendly. There's plenty of parking in the huge lot.
