The website and the menu show $7 frozen drinks on Thursday's. I haven't been in years before my recent visit so I went based on posted info and ordered 2 frozen drinks after asking the waitress if they were in fact $7. She acknowledged they were. Get the receipt and they both show as $9.99. The issue was that when we politely asked why the manager just dismissed us and said they don't do it anymore even though we confirmed it three different times based on their ad and waitress knowledge. No they did not change the price or discount it. So we just paid,left, and won't be going back. It's the principle. Yall enjoy the mid food and dishonest customer service.

As a first timer, I found their menu to be slightly confusing. I ended up with the rocket burger snack ( add bacon & tomato, no rocket sauce). It came with fries. My guest had the chicken finger basket. It came with fries and you could also pick baked beans, slaw or more fries. They opted for fries and slaw. Our food took a long time but like I stated , they were veryyyyyyy busy! We enjoyed our meal pretty well. The Rocket has been around since 1958, so it was pretty cool to have visited here while in town. Only knock , music too loud that it's hard to hear your number called. The staff were all really nice!

I'm from the Attalla/Gadsden area, and my grandfather and I only come to Jacksonville on a…read moresemi-frequent basis since I have a periodic job on the JSU campus, and each time we've eaten here, we've walked out satisfied and happy every single time. Tonight's visit was probably the most pleasant out of all the times I've been there. Our waitress, Hannah (she allowed me to use her name) instantly knew the drink I usually got (a Cherry-infused Sprite) even though I hadn't been there in many months, which both surprised and pleased me. I've had Hannah as a waitress before a couple of times, but I was so impressed with how nice and polite she was, and how accurate she was with ensuring our order was correct. Another waitress also still remembers what I usually get, which shows you how much these people care. During this visit, I had the usual: a Texas bacon cheesesteak melt with light onions and a pack of Waffle House sauce to drizzle on it, and for the first time, I also got a peanut butter waffle with chopped up bacon on it. It was fantastic! Everything was cooked to perfection, and it was delicious as usual. There hasn't been a time that we've been dissatisfied, ever. As my grandfather and I were waiting on the customers in front of us to pay for their meal, the head chef who was an older woman had a very friendly conversation with my grandfather, which pleased me even more in terms of how friendly and welcoming the staff is. This particular Waffle House location is easily the best out of all I've been to, and this will continue to be our go-to location to eat when we're in Jacksonville.

The service was fine, but it was a little slow, maybe because they didn't have many servers working that day, when we talked to a server, we learned that the whole business had changed ownership completely, so the original owners were not in charge anymore. They actually sold the entire franchise company. There are many memories here going to college and visiting afterwards, but unfortunately, that place has changed.

The staff here is always fast and welcoming, making sure your meal starts off right. The buffet features an impressive selection, from steaks and fresh salads to an entire spread of desserts. The pecan pie, cookies, and especially the bread pudding stand out as must-tries. On weekends, the breakfast buffet is a real treat, and with doors opening at 10:30am during the week and 7am on weekends, it's a convenient choice for early or midday dining. With large seating areas and a very fair price point--about $17 per person including tip--the value is hard to beat. That said, there are a few drawbacks. Some dishes can be overly salty, and at times the food doesn't seem as fresh as it could be. The building and décor show their age, and the buffet plates could use an update as well. Even with these minor issues, Western Sizzlin remains a wonderful choice for an affordable and satisfying buffet meal. For the variety, price, and friendly service, it's a solid 4 out of 5 stars.

My family and I came in for lunch over the weekend. We were able to call ahead and let them know…read moreour larger party was on the way. When we arrived we were sat very quickly. My sister frequents this location. The server recognized her and already knew what she wanted. As for the rest of us we were able to get drinks and get our order in very quickly. The food didn't take long at all for us to receive. We had 9 of us so that alone was impressive. All of our meals came out together, correct, and hot. I got the machaca chimichanga. It was very good. I was hungry so i couldn't tell you what everyone else ate. I dug in so quickly I almost forgot to take a picture of my food. My husband got the steak ranchero. I didn't hear anyone complain except for my daughter that complained her quesadilla was stuffed too full of stuff. Not really a complaint if you ask me. Their salsa was also very good. It had good flavor but wasn't spicy. They do have a spicy version if you ask. Personally I like to mix the two together. I'm from AZ where I'm able to get amazing Mexican food. I've found I generally don't prefer Mexican food on this side of the United States so I was extremely happy to find a local location with great food. The staff was all very pleasant. A gentleman came over and gave all the kids candy from his candy basket he was carrying around. I believe he was the owner. When we were finished our bills arrived quickly and correct. On our way out as we were waiting for the remainder of our party the candy man came over dancing. He grabbed my daughter's hand and started dancing with her. Everyone was so nice. We will definitely return.

The bread is normally a high light to the start of our meal. The 1/2 steakhouse burger (Lunch time) had very good flavor. Make sure to order it medium well so you can enjoy some of the juices. Otherwise it will be dry. The fries were like warm. The season steakhouse wings were great!! Love how they put the buffalo sauce on the side so you can enjoy the wing flavor. Now the crispy Brussels sprouts yes they were crispy. But they lacked flavor, even salt and pepper couldn't revive these. I have had better from Longhorns, very disappointed. Ordered parmesan crusted chicken (12oz) with loaded potatoes for my parents. They loved the meal and it was take out!! Also a mixed green salad with blue cheese and loaded potato soup. Our waiter Gavin was great from start to finish. When I asked her for recommendations she was honest.

We expect there to be some wait times on a Friday night at a popular spot but if your wait staff continually apologizes for the slow service then it's not just in the customer's mind. I won't name our waitress cause I don't think it was her fault. The place was lively with the weekend crowd and we were seated pretty fast. The entrees were great when they did reach the table. My ribeye was cooked to the perfect temp and the Brussel sprouts were very good. Everyone else at the table enjoyed their meals as well. The service put a damper on an otherwise great family dinner.
