Where is the best country/seafood buffet ?

[NE GA Pappy]

I have eaten with Terry over at Booty's. It was more good food than a man can handle. I need to get back over there one evening before long.

[Flash]

Thanks for the kind words.
Great to meet you and Mrs Milkman tonight.

It is owned and operated by one of our own members here Flash. It is Bootys Fish House in Royston Ga. We ate there this evening and it was GREAT. All sort of good fried fish, veggies, country ham, stew, and special treats from the chef (Flash)made it a meal to remember. And the really great part is two people get all they can eat for less than $29. It is great food and great prices.

It took a long time for the stars to align and for us to be over that way at supper time on Friday or Saturday but it was good to learn what a good meal can be had there.

It was great to meet you and the Mrs. today Terry. We will be back !!!!

BBQ too? You didn't mention it but that was in your original requirement.

No BBQ on the serving line but lots of choices otherwise. A few items were sent out by the chef and our server too. At the low price they charge there is money left to grab a pound of Q afterward.

Still haven't made it up to Booty's myself. Shame too...it ain't that far of a drive.

Back to something touched on early on in this thread, I ate the Redd House a few weekends ago. The BBQ and ribs they have on the buffet are just awesome. There's another dish they have up there that's like something cooked in a slow cooker. Got beef, chicken and some veggies mixed up in it. I'm sure it's got a name...but it's good.

Probably the only disappointment with the Redd House is their dessert. For example, their banana puddin used to be made from scratch. Now...its obvious that it's a box mix. It's nowhere near what I like for banana puddin....and I LOVE home made banana puddin.

Had the Red Minnow recently too. Was NOT impressed in any fashion. Likely won't be back to that one.

The Redd house between Jefferson and Nicholson is real good. Thurs night is country buffet, Fri and Sat is seafood buffet, and Sunday Brunch. Good food and friendly folks! Homemade strawberry shortcake is the Bomb!!! Payment is cash or checks only, if you go there.

Blue Willow Inn Social Circle , ga has a seafood buffet on Friday and Saturday nights. Neat place in an old antebellum mansion.
Also Tim’s seafood buffet in Milner is good and reasonable too.

Be tough to beat B and J's in Darien if you like buffets...

I live in social Circle and don’t eat at the blue willow but do go to the red house once a month. Best by far

It is both. My mon used to order off the menu and the rest of us would eat the buffet.

They have very good crawfish and also have quail and frog legs. Or they did last time I was there. over a year ago.

IMO, the ambiance at the Blue Willow beats the food by a long stretch. I will not return.

The runway was mighty fine eating

[breathe in]

i like a lot of some that are already mentioned.

buckners is good.

dillard house is good, but close to $30 now. they do let you take leftovers home, rare for a ayce.

ate at a place called daddy's or daddy's place in kennesaw(?). only had lunch one day so not sure if they have seafood or bbq special. food was good but was more impressed with the service and cleanliness.

garden patch is good for most stuff, but their seafood offerings were pretty sad. tiny shrimp and tilapia.
even worse was their prime rib special. i'm driving there dreaming of a piece of rare steak the size of a dinner plate with au jus. their prime rib was little pieces of well done meat about the size of a slice of spam.

been a few years, maybe it's changed?

down south seafood outside Millidgevville.......all you can eat grits bar, all you can eat hushpuppies, and a killer chop steak.

Straws in Sparta has some decent BBQ.

We eat there when we don’t want to cook at camp. Purdy good too

[GoldDot40]

Had some Redd House this evening. Dang near caused myself some internal organ distortion. Nearly ate my weight in that Calabash style fried shrimp on the buffet. It's been 5 hours now and I'm STILL full.
