Oh lawd this buffet y'all! We were driving back from some field work in a neighboring city and passed right by Old Time. There was a conversation of, should we/shouldn't we. How can we eat so much then drive back to Atlanta, will it be worth it, buffets are weird, etc. Obviously we decided to give it a try. We were pretty stoked to find their lunch price was just $9 pp or $11 with a drink. So you don't have that all you can eat buffet pressure "to get your money's worth". Don't get me wrong I still got 2 full plates and a dessert plate, but who's counting! The food was damn good. Super Southen, all the sides, all the gravies, all the fried, all the carbs. It's a buffet, it's delicious. Everything you want from country fried steak, to fried chicken, greens, is hits. Oh! and the peach cobbler! Definitely worth it if you're in the area. Just grab a coffee if you are just passing through like we were.

I will start with the good first. The food here is phenomenal! Good ole soul, southern, comfort food at its best! They have salads, seafood, bbq, fried and baked chicken. They also have a plethora of vegetables and desserts to choose from. I have absolutely no complaints regarding the taste of the food. On the other hand, however, the atmosphere and service leaves a lot to be desired. Since this was our first time at this restaurant, we didn't know the flow of the place. There were two cashiers who were conversing with each other, and didn't notice that we walked in. Therefore, we were not greeted when we entered. We were acknowledged by one of the cashiers, paid for the food, and found a place to sit. This restaurant is a converted Golden Corral. It has an old rugged look, with the fresh tomatoes at the door, and an office door that was awkwardly in the dining area. How do I describe our waitress? Well, she was friendly, but could use a little more help with her customer service skills. She sporadically checked on us, and when she did, her service was awkward. The cooks, although they were on the job, they would stand around and people watch. It made me uncomfortable to go to the bar, knowing that the cooks were watching me(that explains the poor quality of pictures I took:). The restaurant could also use a fly/gnat zapper. Who likes swatting gnats and flies while eating? Overall, I would be open to visiting this restaurant again. The great tasting food is this restaurant's saving grace!

I'm a little leery of this entry. Not only is the business name spelled incorrectly here (it's actually "Ole Times") but it mimics information identical to another business entry that has a 1-star rating and only two reviews (see the screenshot). Why haven't the owners claimed this one? As an out-of-towner here on business a lack of convenient information is annoying (starting with their hours of operation). I could call.. but I'd rather not return to 1994.

food selection

You know you are in trouble if a local tells you that this is the "best" option in town for a sit down lunch. Either they don't get out much or there isn't anything else other than the fast food chains, which there are plenty of. Having our expectation tamed, the place didn't disappoint nor surprise. It was a solid southern style buffet with plenty of options and plenty of people, ensuring a constant supply of cooked food. They had most southern staples, and bbq items as well. The most notable item was the cheese biscuits, which were excellent. My wife and I were pleasantly surprised about them. Their dessert selection was poor and mostly sugary pudding stuff, only one coconut cake, which was mostly whipped cream anyways. The place was not clean in general; the waitresses barely kept up with the flow of people coming and going. We waited awhile to get her attention for a refill. If you are looking for a place to fill up yo belly, it will satisfy you.

Great food, best buffet I have been to in a while. Everyone is friendly and took good care of us…read more Traveling with a HS football team and they took care of us no problem. Apologize no pictures, next time.

This is a great value if you are a big eater and care more about quantity versus quality and taste…read more However my wife is a very small eater and I don't eat as much as I used to so the value for us wasn't as great. With the mixed reviews, we knew were were in for a great meal or a bad one, we were not expecting anything in between. It clearly leaned toward the later. The cleanliness of the dishes were hit in miss. You could pick up a plate or fork and it would have dried food on and so you go get another. The restaurant itself is very large and looks really nice. We were very happy with the service provided to us. The best thing on the menu was the fried pork chop, fried chicken, and mashed potatoes. OK as long as she's had plenty of sauce, but I didn't see the fried ribs they were talking about that I was looking forward to trying. The fried shrimp was popcorn shrimp and wasn't great and they didn't offer fish this night or at least we didn't see it. Most if not all the vegetables were cold and had little flavor. The worst dish by far was the fried Okra. One bite and I was done From the dessert bar I enjoyed the banana pudding and had two helpings. The wife thought the pecan pie was pretty good. She absolutely hated the lemon meringue pie which was grainy in texture an overly sweet. And both of us thought the coconut cream pie was not good at all. Again if you're a big eater and you like quantity and lots of options, this place is perfect for you but for us it's not a good deal.
