    Hot honey wings
    Kaitlyn B.

    I've been three times so far and every time has been fabulous! The service is great and I haven't had anything that didn't taste good! The pickle fries are amazing, the perfect cut and fried to perfection! I can't wait to go back and try something new!

    Receipt for over priced over cooked food for 2 people

    I wish I could have given them a lower score. To begin with service was just so-so, I mean between my daughter and myself we had 5 empty drink glasses sitting on the edge of the table. They sit there almost the whole time. The so called hostess that waited on us, only checked on us once the whole time we were there and glasses still remained. I ordered the nachos, never again, I watched it be put in the window for the server to bring to us, sit there until everything was cold when I received it. Chips were stale, I asked about that and she said they cooked them on the spot - absolutely not, you can tell if your chips are fresh or not, the tomatoes tasted rotten, cheese was sticking the chips together and to the paper, hamburger meat (or beef as they called it) was extremely overcooked, needless to say I didn't eat much of them and when I mentioned it. All I got was an "oh well". My daughters wings were good though. I will not go back with the poor service, poor attention to the food and customers and the prices for such nasty food was outrageous. Not a concern from them about my complaint, she didn't care. I wish I could rate them a zero or less.

    Shrimp and Grits.  After I started, couldn't wait.  Soon good.

    Update: Buffingtons has had a change of ownership and a bit of decor change. Andrew seated us…read morequickly and was very attentive throughout our meal. The menu is a skeleton of what it once was with a handful of our favorites now gone. (shrimp tempura appetizer, cheese curds, onion rings and the Philly is gone) -1. Burgers remained and I ordered the double smashed patty black and blue. I use to get their blue cheese burger before and it was good but I'll hand it to the chef. This burger was superior to what I received here in the past! They have changed the fries as well which is a blessing. We ordered one side of fries, because of past experiences, but these were very good. My wife got the patty melt and said it was very good as well although she misses the Philly. Overall a good experience and we will return. Hoping they consider bringing some things back if enough customers request.

    We went to Buffington's at about 7:30 on a Friday night. We arrived and the live music was already…read moregoing. It was a little loud, but not unbearable. Richard Martin was playing on stage and singing some Weezer, Oasis, Johnny Cash, Sublime, etc. We order a couple drinks, an appetizer and an entree to split. First off, the drinks were delicious and pretty. Good job! We went with the 3 appetizer sampler. I think it's called the Pecking Plate. We decided on the hummus with cucumber and naan, the onion rings and a Bavarian pretzel with cheese dip. 1. Hummus - Delicious!!!! Everything about it was excellent. 2. Onion Rings - they looked amazing, but they were VERY bland. 3. Bavarian Pretzel w/cheese - the pretzel had a hard top half and a soft bottom half, I'm not sure if it was how they heated it up, but it was weird. But, the cheese dip was excellent. In fact, we ended up dipping the onion rings into the cheese dip. For the main course we heard the burgers were very good so we went for a Shroom & Swiss Burger with a side of Chili Queso Fries. I was very hopeful for some outstanding fries!!! So, the burger was absolutely delicious. It was well seasoned, VERY juicy, toasted bun, good cheese and shrooms! The fries kinda missed the mark a bit. They were pretty old tasting fries, I think if they were fresher my final opinion would have been different. But the chili had good flavor. And it looks like the person dumping the cheese forgot his glasses. lol! Overall, I'll give the entire experience a 3 star. They had some high points and some low points.

    Yesterday, my friend and I decided to forego lunch in Macon, as neither of us was very hungry at…read more11:30. And, decided to have lunch at a local place. Since I hadn't the opportunity to get here (DoorDash isn't contracted with PNC. And, when I was still driving, there were too many places to go to), it was, a last minute decision. And, I am certainly glad of it! Though, considering it was, 12:40 when we arrived, it wasn't very crowded. I think, being a Tuesday afternoon was the reason. Had it been the weekend, or after work, it would have been a different story. Now, I gotta admit, paying $13.00 for a Double Mushroom and Swiss Burger with natural cut Fries, is a bit high imo. BUT, considering I have had nothing to eat since finishing the meal at around 1:30. The burger was delicious, and satisfied my cravings for a M&S burger. The fries were good, but not very hot. And, not heavily salted. Service was excellent! And, the waitress was very nice and, attentive. Unfortunately, she didn't have knowledge of the alcohol content of their Draft and IPA beers (the names definitely sounded woohoo), I went with a Peach Margarita. Now, I asked for a Traditional one, but got it, On the Rocks, instead (not sure if she misunderstood me. Or, if PCB doesn't serve them). It was potentially good.

    We were pleasantly surprised! I had seen the bad reviews but this was one of the only restaurants…read morenearby that allowed dogs. We sat on the patio which was small but nice, and ordered a bunch of different food. Everyone really enjoyed their meal. It's your typically fried bar type food, but it was decent. Nothing fancy, but decent and cheap. For 6 people it was under $100. The service was pretty quick and our waitress was super sweet. Not too shabby.

Today I liked the service of my chef who covered for the waiter. Burger cooked nice and medium juicy. Also order"half n half" onion rings and fries. With unsweetened tea. The burger was nice except wish the bun was toasted as it was cold. The fries were nice hot crispy. However the onion rings were soggy and greasy today. Sigh. Wasn't busy either. Hmm. Total with $18 with tip $22. Nice try e server helped me out with getting cash. Yes- defiant still CAsH ONLY business. Sigh today.

    I was missing the taste of the food from a quick spot in my hometown of Walterboro called…read moreDairyland. Someone mentioned to me that The Sports Center here has fried chicken that tastes very close to Dairyland which has a distinctive taste. I visited and was a little disappointed that there's no fried chicken as stated however the burgers are just as amazing as Dairyland's in my hometown. If you want laidback, chill peaceful setting with great food, this place is it. My burger was not only huge but very tasty. The service was great and the server connected with everyone that walked through the door as if she knew them. I loved that part. I enjoyed my time there and will return.
