    a plate of food on a table
    Kelly M.

    Stumbled into the Plantation buffet restaurant today after having seen it recommended on Facebook and happening to be in the area. We apparently arrived for the lunch buffet which cost 13.99 a person. I had a fantastic time, it was super fun to load up my plates and get a little bit of everything. My first plate I got pulled bbq pork, baked beans, mashed potatoes with gravy, a hush puppy, hot okra, corn and some kind of green bean and potato dish with beef. This plate was delicious. I loved the baked beans and pork the best, but the potatoes and gravy were also really good! The hot okra was way too spicy for me unfortunately, but luckily I only grabbed a couple to try. Second plate was orange blossom chicken, rice, Mac n cheese, and more pulled pork and baked beans and a hush puppy. I did not enjoy the Mac n cheese, it had almost zero flavor at all, but everything else on this plate was great. My husband got some similar items but he started with the salad bar and made a big salad. For dessert I had a little plate of cheese cake, two plates of carrot cake, and a cup of vanilla ice cream. The dessert were all very yummy! The restaurant is very large inside with ample tables, interesting decor, and a kids zone in the back that looked to have arcade games. The bathrooms were super clean, in fact a young woman had just finished cleaning the bathrooms as I was entering. All in all we both left very full for a price tag of 13.99 each. Getting to try so many different things was really fun. By my second plate I was getting full and there was still other things I would've liked to try but I wanted room for dessert as well. This place was kept very clean and there were a lot of staff around tending to things and keeping everything orderly and nice. This place exceeded my expectations for a buffet.

    When you're ever in Dickson, Tennessee make sure you eat at the Plantation Restaurant. The restaurant is locally owned by Chris and Marcia Lucas and the southern food is absolutely off the chart. When you first walk in the first thing that stands out are all the American flags. Then you're really going to notice that on the three walls in front of you are tributes to active military veterans, Viet Nam veterans and to fallen police officer's. You have to take time to visit all three walls and see the table set for the MIA and POWs. When I came in it wasn't long before I was seated by my hostess Amanda. She was pleasant and she immediately gave me a rundown on everything that was available as well as the history. Here are some of the items on the Buffet: Fried chicken, smoked pulled pork,baked beans, lima beans, black-eyed peas,fried okra, peas, grits, white cream gravy, steamed rice. They even had orange blossom chicken, turnip greens, fried gizzards, green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy along with fried cabbage and yes ham hock and white beans. I was really stuffed trying all the items here at the plantation buffet. If you leave hungry it is your fault. For those of you who prefer seafood they have that as well. They have delicious mouthwatering shrimp cocktail, fried butterfly shrimp, baked fish, chicken gumbo, low country boil, beef brisket, blackened fish as well as jumbo shrimp. You really can't go wrong here at the plantation restaurant. No meal would be complete without some of their desserts. There is something for everyone. Assorted pies and cakes and top it off with ice cream. Better yet, try some delicious banana putting or peach cobbler. I understand on Sundays they have my favorite blackberry cobbler so if you're ever in Dickson Tennessee don't miss the opportunity to stop by the Plantation Restaurant.

    Before I came to this restaurant the first time. I read all the reviews and saw the overall rating of 3.almost convinced me to go somewhere else. However, we were hungry and I didn't feel like going all over looking for somewhere else to eat. Well that was three visits ago and every time that we have come the food has been very tasty, hot and satisfying. I waited to write this review since it seems to depend on the time of day that you come. We have come close to closing, in the middle of the shift, it hasn't mattered, same awesome food and friendly great service. Based on the negative reviews, I would either say that a lot changed or they were disgruntled employees or the competition. I would be willing to say that those people are full of something. That comment about the veteran is crap for sure as this place is a shrine to veterans. Is it possible that a table wasn't available for him when he was ready, possibly. But I can't believe as friendly as these people are, it had to be a misunderstanding, check out my pictures. Also, dont use this app to navigate here or you will get lost. It is just down the road from the Walmart, on the same side of the street.

    Well I came with high hopes. It's just ok southern food, but if you're a southern cook like myself there's lots of failures and blah nursing home flavor going on. Straight outta the can items as well with extremely lacking service. If I need to find a bright note it would be the potato puffs and the banana pudding

    My steak!!! Medium rare, excellant.

    Not good at all. Food was bland. Service was good and the place was clean. I won't go back there to eat again.

I always get the half order of catfish fillet, usually with a baked potato, and I have NEVER been disappointed. No joke, some of the best catfish I have had in my life! I was able to go last week while visiting, and tried the spicy catfish fillet for the first time. The breading was a little thicker than their regular fillet, but crisp and full of flavor without being overly spicy. The sides are served family style, which is dangerous for me, because I could easily take down a family's worth of creamy coleslaw, white beans with red pepper relish, and hushpuppies before my catfish even has an opportunity to get to the table. Those hushpuppies..... soooooo good! Nice and crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Large parking lot out front with the iconic Catfish statue alerting everyone that they got the right place for catfish. The interior is unassuming, and according to my dad, hasn't changed much in the last 50 years. It's clean though, and in my opinion, if you have a good thing going, then why change? The staff is super nice, and they take cash and card. Please NEVER change Catfish Kitchen!

They have two types of barbecue sauce, mild and hot. I felt that the hot was too spicy and mild was fine, but both didn't really have the best flavor profiles and I also prefer a thicker sauce as these sauces were very thin. The baked beans were excellent and the star of the show. I also had the potato salad, which was very good. I would highly recommend NOT sitting at the outside tables like we did. The road noise was ridiculous! It seems that every other car had an exhaust that was obnoxiously loud and deafening to the point where you couldn't hear the person across the table from you.

My wife prefers cocktails and/or wine, so she had one of each. We also had the salted pretzel.

The place is very divey looking, but definitely has great appeal and is a place I could see visiting for a round of drinks, or more in the future. The food I tried, which was dessert, was amazing...
