I have mixed feelings about giving this review. A back country, all you can eat catfish, chicken strips, steak fingers, salad, friends and hush puppies along with a handful of there items you can order from their menu.One business out in the middle of the country. We went at night, so I'm not exactly how it looked from the outside. Wasn't obvious which door to enter, but we made it into the building. Got in and notice how short the ceiling was. I'm about 6'5" and I had to duck. There is a slope to the ceiling, so as you shift, you can get to a ceiling that is tall enough to not duck.Went to pay for the all you can eat and handed hery card, to which she said cash only. Wasn't certain if ai had cash but she immediately reached for a card with their address and said we could just mail payment to them. I've never heard of that. Wow. I did have cash enough.Now to the food. The catfish was pretty tasty. I'd give it about an 7+ out of 10. I'm huge on fish, so it was pretty good. Flavored right, kind of smallish pieces, but over all did the job.The chicken tenders were breaded right and we're tender. I am confident to give them a solid 8+.Steak fingers. I missed them on my first pass and almost missed them on my second pass. They weren't really warm and seemed as if they may have sat there for a bit. I can't in good conscience rate them. I had three bites... And set them to the side. I would like to have them fresh out of the cooker next time.Seasoned fries were very good. I got some just as they came out. I'd give them a 9. The hush puppies, maybe a 5-6. They didn't have any type of vibrant taste and they may have been there for a while also.Wife had the self-served salad. Was a simple, what looked like iceberg lettuce, with tomato wedges, white onion, shredded cheddar, and ranch. She enjoyed it and remarked that it was all fresh and the ranch was good. A few more components like maybe egg or croutons, maybe a cucumber could have brought it up to a 9 to 9+. But it gets an 8+ for being as fresh as it was.Coleslaw was very simple, but fresh. Not the KFC style that many are used to, but you could taste all the flavors and I liked it. 8 for that.The cocktail sauce was really good as was the tartar. 8+ for the tarter, 9 for the cocktail.Plastic plate, plastic utensils for the all you can eat. Overall we enjoyed our meal. Atmosphere was just basic, but the food did us well. I read that they had a ribeye. Said they had a real knife for that. May have to try that next time. We will return. Good value for the money. It was $20 per.

We were there this evening with my wife's cousins and although it has been 15 years since we last visited the only thing that changed was the front addition to the restaurant. The food was excellent. I had the all you can eat buffet and everyone else had the one time buffet. The catfish is excellent along with the fries, hushpuppies, salad. The cobbler topped with ice cream was the best. Top that off with more than reasonable price and Cook's is fantastic. Thanks for the enjoyable experience and I promise we will return a lot sooner.

Catfish? What catfish? Burnt breading that had a sliver of fish in there somewhere....If you go, be sure to use the restroom somewhere else first, rancid it is.

I came here about 10 years ago with my family and remember it being good, they had live music and a nice atmosphere and good food.. Today I took my fiancé and wish I hadn’t. First of all, $45 for two people is absolutely insane. Secondly, the buffet was gross and burnt. The steak fingers and chicken tenders were a joke and the catfish was burnt to a crisp with very little meat on it. Hush puppies burnt and bland. The ceiling was leaking in multiple places, flies everywhere and the bathroom should be a closed down by how disgusting it was. I am actually sad because I have very fond memories of this place as a child.

It is a good meal at a country diner.This is not a high end full service restaurant, it is a great place to eat with a self serve buffet of salad, catfish, and the fixins.Just a good meal. Well worth the visit!

Family friendly, great atmosphere!!Buffet style catfish, chicken tenders, steak fingers, french fries & coleslaw. They have a salad bar. You can order steak & baked potatoes too!!They don't take cards and we don't carry cash BUT instead of sending our family away hungry they gave us the address and told us to just enjoy our meal and we can mail them a check!!

Gross! Idk how the health dept ain't shut them down. The owners are the cheapest ppl you will ever meet, they treat employees poorly and retrieve food waste from garbage claiming " its still good" .
