Good Time Country Buffet was honestly a major disappointment, especially for the price. The selection was extremely limited for a restaurant calling itself a buffet, and several advertised items, including the rib tips, sliced ham, and green tomatoes weren’t even available. I was told they had run out, which made the visit even more disappointing.
The food was bland and under-seasoned; I felt like I had to add salt to almost every bite. The chicken noodle soup tasted unmistakably like canned soup, and some of the food was served cold. For the price, I expected much more variety and quality. It felt more like glorified lunch food than a true Southern buffet.
Then there are the extra charges. The $3.99 unlimited soft drink charge should already be included in the buffet price, and charging $7 for a can of Miller Lite is an insane rip-off. I definitely wouldn’t recommend spending money on drinks here either.
The one major positive was the staff. Everyone was genuinely friendly, welcoming, and helpful, and the customer service was excellent. Unfortunately, great service can only go so far when the food and value fall short.
I also found the overwhelmingly positive reviews difficult to reconcile with my experience. I can only speak for myself, but they certainly didn’t reflect what I experienced.
Great staff and customer service, but the food, selection, temperature, and pricing need significant improvement. Overall, very disappointing and not somewhere I would return to spend money.
