When our relatives told us to get there before 10 for thanksgiving dinner, we thought they were nuts.... Until we got there. They were smart, the line ended up being A SOLID QUARTER MILE LONG. We had come from ohio, the people in front of us came from Virginia. To eat there. We were the only people that didn't have to wait a long time, I feel sorry for those at the end of that quarter mile. I was very surprised at the all you can eat format, it made me wish I was bulimic 🤣. I know, I'm insensitive. Anyway, the waitress was super nice, the table was a little small for the amount of food on there. As other people have mentioned, they bring out a lot of small portions of stuff. If I was broke and hungry, I could eat for years off of what other people didn't eat that was brought out. Not a criticism, just an observation. Anyway, they brought out turkey and ham, I had the ham, it was three thin cold strips on a plate. I feel like it would be a lot better if these slices were thicker. The ham itself was very good. The mac and cheese was real. They didn't load it up with flour to save money. The strawberry salad was incredible. The server interrupted us a lot, but it's thanksgiving, there is a quarter mile line outside and she had a job to do so I didn't take offense. They only take cash. That alone would be reason to return. They also give to the community, when disaster struck recently they were there for everybody. They make sure everybody was fed and water at no charge. What a great way to make sure your business succeeds! It took a long time to pay and get out of there but again, it's thanksgiving. Will I go back? I definitely will. What makes this place all that? It's the food. It's real. And that's really all it is. Real food. You don't see a Sysco truck backing up. They don't buy Frozen turkey roll. I gave four stars out of five only because of what a zoo it was, I'm sure this is going to upgrade to five on my next visit.

Seated. Waited 10 minutes Walk back to host desk to ask if there are any servers on duty. She walks back to dining room with me and gets a server. Cornbread and rolls very good. Tea great, coffee fair. Chicken tenders, small pieces of dried out chicken some too hard to eat. Alaskan white fish, that could be anything as long as it's white, way overcooked. Tartar sauce good. All side dishes barely warm and flavorless. Carrot soufle and potatoes ok. White gravy flavorless and barely warm. Desserts were good. Server was pleasant. We visited due to being highly rated but certainly did not experience anything to deserve a high rating.
