Beef with mash, corn, and gravy.
Loosey B.

We wanted to try an Amish Buffet while in the area, and this one was great! Salad bar with lots of choices, then the main courses were fried chicken or really tasty beef (I don't normally do beef, but this was amazing), with fantastic mashed potatoes, Mac & Cheese, various veggies, and a couple of house made rolls, plus gravies. Not a ton of choices, but very tasty! Really enjoyed it and cleared our plates! I'd recommend this place if you're in the area!

I would argue that this is very good down-home cooking! There was a lot of people who came at once but they have plenty of seating so there wasn't really a wait. There's a buffet or menu items to choose from. We got the buffet. Full salad bar with fresh ingredients, local cheese. Cold salads like macaroni and broccoli. The croutons were good, crunchy but not break your teeth and they had a variety of breads they used. Fresh bacon pieces. The hot foods bar had: -fried chicken (VERY good, highly recommend) -cabbage casserole (little too cheesy for me) -corn (very very sweet, interesting) -noodles (YUM!!!) -dressing (what they call stuffing, it was good) -bbq ribs (fall of the bone but I thought the sauce could be better, have more flavor) -green beans (basic, would be better with seasoning/butter) -mashed potatoes and gravy (yum!) We had good service and overall the buffet was a better deal than ordering something off the menu, especially if you wanted to try a couple different things. It was a good way to get a wide variety of items. Lemonade was very fresh

Looking for down home Amish cooking? This is your place. Expansive space allows for quick seating. Looked like most folks opted for the buffet, but we weren't super hungry. Our items came out quickly. And they were just what we hoped for. Hubby's open faced hot turkey sandwich had thick cuts of turkey and bread. My clam chowder was loaded with clams. And the peanut butter cream pie? Absolutely decadent and impossible to finish.

I love this place. It was pouring down rain and we came in. It was busy but not as crazy as usual. We came at 2:30, right between lunch and dinner, so it seemed like it wouldn't be too packed. The food was good as usual. Even my son loved the chicken and the rolls (of course) with the peanut butter spread. I loved the fried chicken, the cabbage casserole, the 3 bean salad, and the noodles the most. But everything is no-fail here. I can't wait til next time.

We have been coming here for years. Food is great, but the price is now $20.00 per person for a limited selection.

Can I bring my service dog in with me?

Is dessert included with the buffet?

No it's not included. But their chocolate cake is very good!

A very nice experience. The Sauteed Fried Tofu/broccoli was great at $10.25…read more The Hot and Sour soup was fabulous, a large serving (for two) at $6.75. Staff was very responsive to a special request on the soup. ALL food was made to order and it was yummmy fresh! Yep that's with three M's. To the folks complaining about the service...we experienced prompt service for dine in, we observed the main employee greet everyone and say, "How can I help you". What else do folks want in a mom and pop restaurant? They even let some non customers (motorcycle riders) come in during the rain and wait in their lobby until the storm passed. As with any local place if you want something a little different ASK. If you are unhappy, bring it to their attention. Most places want to provide a good experience. Anyways, I have a full stomach. Glad I tried it. We would come back. We love good homestyle food, but this was a nice alternative. Very clearly a family operation, glad to support local business. As my fortune cookie said, "You don't need talent to gain experience." A nice melodramatic way to end this review, que credits and finish with triumphant food music...fade to black (passed out from food coma).

Under new owners!! Unfortunately it's not even same food freshens, quality and flavor. Few…read morerestaurants now buy premade frozen convenience food instead of fresh and quality. Last time we got breaded chicken it tasted like bought at freezer section grocery store. It wasn't fresh chicken with battering that old owner did. Also flavor of the sauce on many dish has change so much which very disappointing and taste awful. We try it few times think it was off day. Everytime we try again it was bad. Prices high/ quality and freshness not there anymore. I don't see this new owner doing well if flavors and quality don't improve.

Here's the thing, it's a buffet, you are not going to get 5 star service, and you aren't going to…read morehave perfectly tailored food to your liking, it's just that simple. All of these one star reviews are unwarranted for what it is. Lunch is my favorite at golden corral, for $9.95 I get a salad, loaded baked potato and small dessert, you can't really get that anywhere for the price, not even a drive through, most salads are now $12-17, so to me, it's a great deal. Dinner is always hit or miss, I feel if you go on a not peak time (right when they open, or after the dinner rush) you will have better luck, there is a lady who has worked here for years, she keeps up with refills and always clears the plates so you aren't sitting with dirties. My only complaint is during dinnertime especially there are ALWAYS kids unattended at the buffet, also running through the restaurant, we were here on Saturday 09/10 and witnessed kids picking up food and putting it back into the containers on the buffet, and running back and forth from the dessert bar to the buffet knocking over someones cane and almost tripping them, several tables complained and the waitress said they aren't allowed to say anything about it...there should be a policy that if you can't keep your kids under control or accompany them to the buffet you have to leave.

Atmosphere: Walking into the restaurant, the woman at the…read morecounter was a little less than friendly and just acted like she hated her job. When getting our first plates of food, I think we set at least 5 plates to the side before we found clean ones to use. One thing to take BIG note of is that MAYBE 25% of the food, sauces and condiments are labeled. It is a guessing game what you are getting. Aside from that, our table was clean, and our waitress was very nice. One thing that you MUST BE AWARE OF if you come to eat here, you can only tip with cash. Unless you go back up to the front counter to the woman who hates her job and ask for cash off of your card, you and your waitress/waiter are out of luck. We literally had to zelle our waitress her tip because we felt so bad and I better there are many times a day that customer just simply don't tip at all because "if they wanted us to tip then they should have made that possible on our card". Very few people are going to want to walk back up to Hate-My-Job Jessica and go through the hassle of getting cash back on their card. That is something that they really need to figure out. Food: We tried the following foods: -Tortilla chips with ground taco meat and cheese sauce: With the looks of the cheese sauce, I thought it was going to be very bad, but it was actually the item I ate the most of. Albeit hard to screw up nachos, we still very much enjoyed them. -Spinach artichoke dip: We were excited to try this because it looked fresh, hot and creamy. We were mistaken. This was FOWL. We rarely get something so bad we have to spit into a napkin, but this was absolutely one of those times. It had absolutely zero flavor. -Chicken Tenders: The chicken tenders were good. But hands down the best thing I had at dinner that night was the orange sauce you see on the plate (It was definitely some type of buffalo sauce but of course it wasn't labeled). -Popcorn shrimp: The popcorn shrimp was good. But was sucked about it was that the cocktail sauce is all the way on the other side of the buffet and there is no sign to tell you that. Obviously, it is kept where the cold condiments are, but I had to ask where it was and that was a guessing/smelling game as well since nothing is labeled. -Tamale: Disgusting. Period. -Meatloaf: My partner said the meatloaf was your average run of mill meatloaf but was good. -Green beans and mashed potatoes: Good -Lemon Custard Cake?: It wasn't labeled, and we thought it was cheesecake from the looks. Good thing we didn't put chocolate sauce... -Banana Pudding: Good. Your average banana pudding. If we were down on our luck and needed a cheap way to get a full stomach, we would try it again. Other than that.... No thank you
