Stopped in on a whim for a late lunch and was pleasantly surprised. The food was fresh even though it was in between meal times and everything was delicious. The server was very personable but a little over zealous and had began to become irratating. Overall a good visit I will be returning . read more

Hair in yeast roll, manager says, "sorry"....this was a 34$ "buffet", y'all. Golden Corral is under 28$ for 2 and has freaking steak, ribs, shrimp etc. This manager doesn't care but we won't ever go back! read more

First, let me say I have been a lot of places and I have seen a lot of things. I am a 52 year old white male. My crew and I went into Western Sizzlin for some dinner after a long day at work. We were on the tail end of a week in GA. We walked in and the two young ladies up front said hello but that was about it - no smile or anything. It was not the most welcoming approach for a greeter or hostess. My crew consists of three young men - a 23 year old caucasian, a 28 year old African American and a 29 year old Hispanic. Every single one of us noticed that the nicest person who bothered to address us was a young African American girl who appeared to be working in the back and bringing out items as needed. We live in 2020 and this was one of the most racist-feeling moments in my life. I felt like I had been transported back in time. All of the front people were young caucasian ladies and all of the men and ladies in back were African American. This set a very bad mood to the meal because again, the only people that were nice to us and smiled were the people bringing out food from the back. In a society that is so fragile we still have this separation. Your establishment to me would be better and warmer with a mix of all people that have good hearts and good customer service. read more

Reading The Reviews Beforehand I Was A Little Skeptical, But The Restaurant Was Not Bad! Me & My Family Of 6 All Enjoyed It. Due To The Covid, The Kitchen Plates Your Food As You Request, The Food Was Fresh & Seasoned. I Didn't Even Have To Use The Salt & Pepper. The Waiter Was Good With The Table & Kept The Drinks Filled. Western Sizzlin' Also Made Several Tables Unavailable To Honor Social Distancing While Still Leaving Family Table Options Available For Families Like Mine. read more

What used to be a family run buffet restaurant where the meats were cut fresh and weren't frozen portions...used to eat there sometimes 2x a day...to be turned into just another buffet restaurant of tasteless mass quantities of consumables...what a shame.. The waitresses had worked there forever...often knew everybody's name in the family.... One time I was boarding a flight to London and i made sure I came by here to stock up for the oh-so-long and boring flight...it used to be that good... Not that way anymore... read more

Not gonna lie probably one of the worst buffets I have ever been to. The restaurant itself and the decor is so out dated and ugly. The food was bland with not much flavor. The hostess was rude. I could tell that she hated her job. If Golden Corral has a incested child with its cousin then Wester Sizzlin would be the result. Periot. read more

My mother and I stopped in here on August 6th, 2018 around noon, and had the buffet. The variety was pretty good, and we loved the fatback and the fried chicken. And the hot peach cobbler for dessert with vanilla ice cream on top was excellent. read more

Okay, as buffets go, given the price and food quality, but not something I'd go out of my way to return to. Salad bar was good, but not as extensive as the competition--i.e. Golden Corral. And though there was probably nothing wrong with it, the seafood salad appeared better left avoided. As for the entree bar, good fried chicken and other southern items (mashed potatoes, black-eyed peas, corn, etc.), but not much beyond that. Meatloaf was not exciting and overall variety was not extensive (again, compare Golden Corral). Desserts were fair. Mostly cake and not-so-creamy soft ice cream (tasted more like a re-frozen Slurpee). read more

Was disappointed for sure. There were only 2 SMALL buffet lines, as well as a salad bar. Need not to mention, steak is not on the buffet line as advertised, but you have to pay extra. The food itself was not too bad, but there was not much of a selection and for the price we paid (25.00 for 2) I was expecting more items and better quality food. The corn was frozen and the fried chicken was dry to the point that it was not edible. The mashed potato which is a pretty big food staple especially since the buffet is very limited, were completely out and not refilled the entire time we were there. If you are in the mood for typical southern food like corn, green beans and salad then this wouldn't be too bad, but considering I wanted a larger buffet, I was disappointed. read more

My family and I stopped here for dinner while traveling today and had a 5 star experience. The staff at the desk to purchase your dinner were customer friendly with explaining the menu. Once we found our table our server, Leah, came over quickly and was super friendly. She assisted us with what we needed and kept checking on us throughout our dinner. One member at my table ordered steak which came out quickly and was hot and the taste was perfect. I ordered the buffet and everything I tasted well and was so fresh. Thank you for a great dining experience. read more

a steak place with no steak and dry ribs. what a rip off do not eat here food is not worth it

One of the best places I have ever had. Great juicy steaks and even better service buffet is amazing. I WILL BE BACK

Should a rib-eye steak have the same consistency as shoe leather? I don't think so ... and the primary reason I'll be sticking with the adequate lunch buffet at this buffet-style smorgasbord in Pooler. read more

They have a pretty decent lunch buffet with lots to choose from. It is southern style with fried & baked chicken, lots of veggies, salad, bread, and a pretty good dessert selection. I think the buffet w/drink is close to $10. read more

I haven't been to one of these restaurants in years, but it was good for a trip down memory lane. My grandad got the biggest steak they have and said it was good. I really enjoyed the sweet tea and my husband said the chicken was good. I would come back if in the area again. read more

I went yesterday and had the buffet. Was not impressed. Only thing that was good was the fish.

Ate here twice now passing through the area. Good basic buffet, like a mini version of a Ponderosa. Friendly attentive staff. Both times I thought their weak point was their steaks. No consistancy in how they are cooked (one side might be rare while the other half is medium). I'd go back again but buffet only next time. read more

Breakfast buffet is good. Service is good. Regular food, not so great.

If you're playing a pure numbers game with your sustinence intake Western Sizzlin can provide you with a near endless supply of mostly digestible fodder. If you are in procession of an even marginally functional palate it'd be best for you to steer clear of this place. read more

Yuck! I wouldn't eat here again. The buffet was super small and had 2 meats.. meatloaf and catfish.. and the rest was carb filled pastas and rices. The salad bar .. well.. if you call that a salad bar .. it had hardly nothing on it. read more

Two stars only because it beat out the fast food places. I thought I would give it a try. Buffet had fried chicken.. It was cold.. The ham tasted like treet meat or spam. Potatoes, green beans were ok. Mac and cheese not good. Cheese cake was about the best thing. Not sure who taste test their food but you need to try your chicken and ham. It does not have a good flavor. In and out in less than 20 min. read more

Table was dirty. Strip steak was tough and smelled funny. Salad greens had unidentified clump of "something" in it. Buffet Food was bland, heavy and tasteless, like it had been in the serving trays for a ....long time. Steak was way over-priced for what was delivered. Won't ever go back, and has colored our concept of the entire WS brand. read more

Never again. Everything was bland and/or overcooked. Items were not fresh. Huge room to improve a buffet that disappoints in every aspect. The tap water even tasted gritty. Avoid. read more

Well i would like to start off with I found a tooth in my sausage i almost vomited! But the rest of the good was OK...

Stopped here on our way to visit relatives in Charlotte from Orlando. The name caught my attention thought I'd give it a try. Very disappointed, food quality was terrible, fairly high priced. Will definitely be stopping somewhere else on our next trip to Charlotte. read more

The only reason I'm giving this place one star is because the waitresses were very nice and on top of keeping our drinks filled. Aside from that this restaurant was an awful experience. The buffet must have had the nastiest food I've ever tried to eat. It was so bad I got this app just so i could warn you innocent people not to eat at this place. There were a lot of gloopy selections all of which tasted terrible so I tried to fill up on plain rice and a salad. I then tried to see what was happening with the dessert situation and it only got worse. The cake was hard. Seriously. The cake was HARD. Cake is not supposed to be hard. So i went for some ice cream with chocolate syrup, but of course all the nasty sticky syrup bottles were empty. Besides all this, the buffet was outrageously priced for what was going down inside those walls. Never again. read more

Disappointed. The salad bar had flies - one made a home in the cottage cheese. The food selections are minimal. Fried chicken was decent buffet chicken; corn on the cob that had sat in water so long it was only dried kernels, the rice and gravy was good, some cut up hamburger patties in gravy which were very dry, the shrimp were pretty good. Definitely not be returning EVER. read more

I usually don't go to buffet restaurants, but it was too convenient that day. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and even more surprised by the cleanliness. We were able to use the salt and pepper shakers without getting sticky hands, not always the caee in Pooler. The staff was pleasant. Would consider going back. read more

We went for the breakfasr buffet. My husband was drinking coffee when the waitress came to refill his cup, after she walked away my husband looks down and sees a roach in his cup. When we showed the waitress she didnt seem surprise. Neither the cashier as she was refunding our money. I will NEVER go there again! read more

"Good ol' southern cookin" The food is decent but not for the price in my opinion. The place is very old so it has a dirty wood feel to it... but I kind of like that dirty old wood smell. However, I do not like the cluttered, greasy unclean restroom (wonders about the kitchen) feel I get every time I go in there, nor that feeling of I'm about to slip on some food on the ground. If they where to lower that buffet pricing and up there overall cleanliness they could be a 4 star. read more

This place is pretty good buffet with southern style food. I went here once for lunch and once for dinner. The macaroni is absolutely AMAZING! It would keep you coming back for more. Also there are lots of Delicious desserts to choose from. read more

My wife and myself ate there just yesterday for the first and last time. We had the buffet and the food was OK, or just so. But go to the restroom and have a look around, the place is very, very dirty and the wood paneling inside (how much dust can it hold?) just looks old, old, old. This place badly needs a Restaurant Impossible makeover!! read more

The food was okay. Prices are a little high. It was 30.00 for hubby and I. The salad bar needs help.

Stop don't eat here as I walked in I saw the health score 84 and the previous 2 were in the low 80's also I should have turned around and left then The time was 8 pm I got the buffet and everything was cold except the fish The staff was friendly was a positive but the food was overall awful save your money and go somewhere else read more

$15.00 and 35 min I'll never get back that could have been better spent elsewhere. Dry chicken, salty sides, macaroni and cheese that I'm sure comes from a frozen bag and is heated in the bus pan. There was a visible moat of water surrounding it. The brown gravy had a skin, that looked like plastic it was so thick, clinging to the bin and hovering about 2 inches above the surface of the gravy. There was brown lettuce in the salad bar. When I went to add croutons to the top of the salad that I carefully selected, they were soggy. I'm thinking that the water that fell on my head from the ac vent above the buffet may have found its way into the crouton bin. Really disgusting! When I felt the crap hitting the top of my head, I regretfully looked up to the source, which was an unclean and MOLDY ac vent. Then I noticed that the dripping filth not only fell on my head, but on the sneeze shield of the buffet also. Although the wait staff was very accommodating and friendly, I believe that in the future I will avoid this place like the plague! read more
