I was driving through Madison around lunchtime. I saw several restaurants. This was the only one…read morecompletely surrounded by vehicles. They were even parking across the street. So I had to check it out. There are three separate seating areas. Plenty of tables and booths. It's like a lot of other buffets: you seat yourself and serve yourself everything except your drink. You pay at the register when you leave ($15). You can get food to go as well and they will weigh your container. The buffet itself is pretty small but has everything you'd want: grilled chicken, fried chicken, fish, chicken dumplings, mashed potatoes, beans, corn bread, etc. There is a separate salad buffet and dessert buffet. Service was friendly and efficient. Paying was quick and easy. Bathrooms were clean. And did I mention the fried chicken was perfect and the cobbler outstanding?

I don't know exactly how long O'Neal's has been around but I'd say a mighty long time. The building…read moreis plenty worn around the edges, booths have certainly seen better days, but country humor and hospitality abound. They sell seasonal produce from behind the front counter as well. Everyone is super-nice though you won't normally need much interaction with the waitstaff: you just say what you want to drink, they bring it to you, and you go get your buffet. I don't know if there is also a kitchen menu to order or not, but everyone goes for the buffet--that's clear. The menu changes daily and is written very neatly up on a small chalk board in the front however it's going to be country cookin' at it finest regardless. Saturday night is apparently the fish fry: they had a variety of fried seafood plus a shrimp scampi and fried chicken--also ribs I believe. They apparently always have fried chicken and it's very good fried chicken, too--not the very best I've ever had, but quite good. Of what they had on Saturday night that was good--beyond the fried chicken--I'm a fan of the mac'n'cheese (very good), butter beans, fried mullet (local I would bet, tasted very fresh), coleslaw, and hush puppies. The fried shrimp and shrimp scampi on the other hand seemed to be from frozen and not very good, overcooked. Crayfish were ok. Sweet potato casserole was bland--I've had much better. They fixed four or five cobblers and those I tried were pretty good--apple, peach, and a bread pudding-like one with blueberries. It's not quite five-star but it's an experience at a good price and overall good food. I'd be curious to try the lunch buffet--I kind of felt they were just trying too hard at the Saturday dinner and had a bit too much out to have quality the highest across the board. Still for $17 including your drink you cannot beat an all-you-can-eat buffet featuring very good fried chicken and the other fixin's plus fried mullet--I mean, forget all the other main dishes, that's plenty and a deal at that price. Certainly worth checking out if in Madison.

You walk in pay for your buffet , and sit where you like . Real casual dining experience.

Chocolate Cake wasn't bad, butbwhat i believe to pineapple cake or something was very dry no flavor. I dont go to buffets for the deserts, so..the chicken an the rest of the food made up for the issue. A closer to home buffet , they did have a sign up for all you can eat crab legs on Sat 3-7pm.

Yet spending another Thanksgiving meal here at Ole Times. One thing is you never have any…read morecomplaints about the food. The turkey is always done to perfection, the ham yummy and plenty of sides and desserts. The salad bar was completely vacant, however...this was somewhat disheartening, considering how supposedly "health minded" American adults are these days. That was our first stop of the day. Cabbage slaw, carrot salad, macaroni salad, olives, huge delicious slices of beautiful tomatoes, gorgeous slices of cucumbers, nicely green lettuce, several types of peppers and ham. Cheese, salad dressing of every kind...best stop so far! Smoked pork, ribs, fried fish, yeast rolls, sliced roast beef, ham, turkey slices, meatloaf, fried chicken, baked chicken, green bean casserole, mac & cheese, cornbread dressing, turkey gravy, mashed potatoes, lima beans, black eyed peas, creamed corn, greens, rice, fried okra... Pumpkin pie, pecan pie, lemon meringue, peach cobbler, soft serve ice cream, chocolate cream pie, cookies, brownies...oh, I'm exhausted just from trying to list everything! There was so so so much more than what I even listed here, plus the absolute best waitress and Arnold Palmer maker! Why cook at home, burden yourself, spend HOURS cleaning up afterwards and hours more packing everything away? Take yourself and your loved ones out to Ole Times Country Buffet just one time for the holidays and you'll never go back to cooking again! (I sure haven't)

The buffet is well lit, clean, and frequently replenished. While some of the food was ok (really enjoyed the mushrooms and green beans, and the stir fried bean sprouts were my absolute favorite thing), the rest of the food was mediocre and hit or miss. We did not try any of the sushi. Many dishes were cold or lukewarm (egg rolls, crab Rangoon, shrimp in garlic & butter) and the chicken in some cases was not cooked all the way through. Based on this visit, probably wouldn't return.

Everything we tried was delicious, hot, and fresh. The waitresses were very attentive and kept everything running smoothly. I also thought their "over-eat/waste food" policy was hilarious and honestly reasonable. If people are wasting food when others are starving in the world... yeah, I get it! The ladies' room was very clean and even had toilet seat covers (a big win for me!), but C said the men's room was a bit on the gross side, so hopefully that gets some extra attention soon. One thing to note: they don't serve alcohol, and they only carry Pepsi products--so just a heads-up if you have a drink preference. Overall, we had a great experience. We especially loved the noodles and chicken fingers, and we'll definitely be returning!

One nice…read morefeature is the hibachi station where you can pick your ingredients and have a chef cook them fresh in front of you. I'm giving it 3 stars because of a concern I experienced at the hibachi station. The chef was using the same utensils to cook multiple orders, and when I mentioned that I'm allergic to shrimp and noticed shrimp being cooked right next to my food with the same utensils, he simply clapped the utensils together and continued cooking without cleaning them. Thankfully my allergy isn't extremely severe and I didn't consume any shrimp, but it was still concerning to see no effort made to prevent cross-contamination. Overall, it's a decent and straightforward buffet, but if you have food allergies, it may be something to be mindful of when ordering at the hibachi station. Also the place does look like a 3/5 aesthetically. It looks like it could use some shine and cleaning.
