Some food was cold, but overall gd they need to learn how to keep up with supply and demand, there was lines waiting on different foods to be cooked and set out, I understand it's Sunday but if it's a busy day they need to keep up, and they have a sign for help so they need servers bad

I will not est there again! They no longer serve fried shrimp on Sundays. Yesterday (March 24), they didnt even have french fries. And, to top it off, the pie slices are so small it would take three to make one normal slice of pie. Finally, the price has jumped up almost 50% in the last four years. The cost for two yesterday was a litlte over $40. Think about it. At least, at a restaurant, you can take home the leftovers. I'm gone. Who needs them?

Was there with my sister in law, both of us seniors. Bill was a few cents under $40 plus left a $5 tip.Terrible experience at dinner time 6:15 pm.No pork, no ribs, no beef and they advertise all for bar b que. I asked cook if they were going to put some out and she stated they were out of them since early in the day. I asked if we two seniors could get a refund. She asked if we took anything off the buffet. I said a piece of cornbread. She said you had your dinner no refund! I said you have no meat bar b que and she got angry and yelled at me. Then she said we have baked & fried chicken. If we wanted chicken we would have gone to a chicken place and not spent $45 for two seniors. We left and will never go back. Could not believe how disrespectful and rude she was. Her parents and grandparents definitely did not raise her right and her bosses should be ashamed of hiring her to represent them and their company.

Service was great. Ronada Riley is amazing. Food sucked. Bar looked terrible. No labels on anything. Loud club music coming from back of kitchen way too loud. Food was really horrible. Will not go back.

I drove 30 miles to eat at "ole times" in Opelika/ Auburn for the food to be absolutely horrible! My rice was hard, the fish was cold from sitting too long, the sausage was burnt, many pans on the buffet were empty, and to top it off, the rolls were hard and burnt. I'm guessing the they were short staffed. After sitting down, the waitress came over to ask what I wanted to drink? I then asked for management. The waitress (Kaitlin), after 6 minutes, could not locate the manager. I then went to the desk to ask for the manager, the cashier still could not locate the manager. After the third attempt (cashier called the manager on the cell phone), 15 minutes had passed, the manager said they do not give refunds after 15 minutes. Wow.....

The whole exprince was terrible way over priced food had no flavor what so ever what food u could get the whole buffet stay empty with hardley nothing on it the who time we was their even the desert bar and said bar was empty will never eat their agin needs beter
The food taste is below average. Warehouse box food has better taste than this. The waiter provided excellent service. Changed the atmosphere. It has been the same since it opened.

Went through the two small stacks of clean plates to find three that appeared clean. Food is clearly leftovers from lunch at 6:30 - 7pm. $48 for 3 adults with water. It's The dinner rush and the restaurant is largely empty.. There are perhaps 6 or 7 tables occupied including ours. Ole Times Country Buffet used to be our go-to place to eat out. Apparently this declining economy has taken it's toll on Ole Times... We won't be going back.Dietary restrictions: No sugar free desert option. When they first opened, they served at least one sugar free desert. That didn't last long.Parking: It's in a mall, so parking is abundant. Especially since the mall is sadly empty of shoppers.

The food was very good but not quite Five Stars. Some of the food items were of a commercial mass type of taste or presentation, texture. The vegetables were absolutely the salvation of the entire buffet. The greens were perfect, the cream corn was excellent, the butter beans were good, the salad bar was ok , the meats that were present were pretty good but the fried chicken was greasy and soaked my napkin up pretty bad with grease, acid reflux waiting to happen, turkey wings were not uniform in presentation, some looked like they were allowed to have a nice brown broiled touch on top and some looked like they must have just been boiled and put out to eat however the one I tasted with the broiled look was ? Delicious. Sweet potatoes were ah ok not the best but edible and recognizable tasting, the dressing was horrible and dry, the rice and gravy was commercial looking for sure, cabbage was a tad bit too salty, the gizzards were fried and good, some were hard but the chicken livers were excellent, melted in your mouth,
