We helped ourselves to the buffet as usual, but we didn't receive any drinks or service. I noticed the teenage wait staff seemed more interested in chatting among themselves and scrolling on their phones than attending to the guests. I hardly saw any staff on our side of the restaurant, except for one young man who was filling his plate behind the buffet (which I didn't mind, as employees need to eat too). Many tables were left dirty and piled with dishes. I understand if the restaurant is busy, but it was quite empty during our visit - just us and two other couples. I attempted to get a waitress's attention several times, but my calls of "excuse me, ma'am" went ignored. After waiting for what felt like an eternity for someone to take our drink order, I decided to walk over to the bar area. There, I found all the wait staff gathered, just chatting away. I approached a young woman with glasses and tattoos and asked for our drinks. Finally, she brought them out, but as we tried to enjoy our meal, we were left staring at our empty cups. It wasn't until we both finished eating that we were even offered a refill. By that point, we were so dissatisfied that we simply requested our check. When the waitress returned with it, she offered us to-go drinks, which we accepted. Unfortunately, my wife's drink arrived leaking from a large hole at the bottom, soaking her with lemonade. It was baffling that such a noticeable leak went unaddressed. My own drink was barely a quarter full—this made no sense, especially since I'd just requested a refill. Frustrated with the poor service, I went up to the bar to express my concerns to the bartender, who seemed indifferent to our issues. I placed my to-go cup on the bar and asked her whether this was the norm for to-go drinks. When she finally took notice of my nearly empty cup, she merely said, "Oh, I'm sorry." There was no offer to replace the drinks. My wife pointed out that she was covered in lemonade, and all the bartender said was, "Well, sorry." For just the two of us, we ended up spending over $40 on a buffet that left us mostly disappointed. We later spoke with a manager named Lee to request a full refund. I cannot recommend this establishment based on our experience. It pains me to say this, as I am a local in Anna and have previously enjoyed many meals here, especially the fried catfish, which has never disappointed me. Unfortunately, this experience with the service overshadowed everything, and I will not be returning.

Inside, there’s a bar with TVs for watching sports. I tried the Mama's Meatloaf, and it was absolutely incredible—I can't wait to return! A special thanks to our server, Kahlyn, for her outstanding service and attentiveness to our needs. Make sure to order a tall, frosty mug of root beer while you're there! Looking forward to our next visit!

Recommend this restaurant hands down good southern cooking.

The restaurant's hours are misleading. I drove 15 minutes to get there, only to find they were closed before their stated operating hours. read more The restaurant's hours are misleading. I drove 15 minutes to get there, only to find they were closed before their stated operating hours.

Fried green tomatoes looked like they took one slice cut in little pieces and called it a side. My wife's shrimp the batter wasn't completely cooked. You could not even drink the water. They need a filter. The catfish was really good. The tartar sauce was excellent. The stuffed peppers were good but you could hardly tell the difference between the chicken and the brisket. I highly recommend the raspberry vinaigrette. The wait staff was terrific. All in all l was sadly disappointed. I will try them again though but not the things that I pointed out, obviously.
