    This was my first time at this restaurant. I haven't been to a buffet, in a while. The restaurant is really well kept, the taste of the food was decent, and the employees were very friendly and attentive. It's a very busy restaurant, and very family oriented. Since I don't eat much of buffets, but if I did want to dine here again, I would.

    Great food for a great price! Greens, Fried green tomatoes, fried chicken, pulled pork, fruit's and veggies, mashed potatoes, Banana pudding, buttermilk pie, peach cobbler and that's just a few of the things that found there way to my plate. Honestly for an all you can eat place the food is fantastic! Food turn around is fast as there are lots of patrons who eat here. Bottom line is this place is a gem.

    Inexpensive buffet in Newnan. They specialize in Southern style food. Yummy. The fried chicken seems to be everyone's favorite, but I like the oven roasted chicken. Tons of sides - mashed potatoes, greens, corn, collards, etc. The restaurant can be quite chaotic during busy times and long waits, you can see why once you smell the food! Lots of parking. Restrooms are clean and decent (especially for a busy family establishment). Service is actually really really good, they always refill drinks, check on you, and take away your plates... 100 points to team Fried Tomatoes!

    I'm not a fan of buffet's at all, but the buzz around town for good southern cooked food and desserts kept calling my name. Upon arriving, the feeling of buffet vibes had me skeptical...however after sinking my teeth into some of little bit of everything; fried chicken, fried green tomatoes, green beans, cabbage, yams, mac & cheese, and more. Your RIGHT...I over did it! I had no room for the fresh hot peach cobbler (which is what I came for) . The food tasted like big mama's cooking, good ole down south food. So yes, I'm going back when I don't feel like cooking my own southern meal. By far, service was excellent! The waitress served up our drinks quick and was on top of our refills, without us even asking. Establishment was clean, with a family quiet vibe. FYI, take out meals available. Load up a to go box, weigh it on their scale, pay and go! By far the best buffet! My favorite, is the fried green tomatoes!

    I was hating on this place lmaooo. I am not gonna lie, idk if the pictures do it Justice but this was fire fire fire lol. So it takes on an older crowd but I appreciate that, cause all I see is frugal beautiful people. You pay before you eat, my mom paid this go round so I ain't exactly sure, but I know it was around $50 for 4 of us to take part of this DELICIOUS BUFFET. Lemme break it down best I can, (I know imma do my review as sooner to the time I eat the food)-- fire: chicken, yams, cabbage; good: Mac and cheese, peach cobbler, cookie, greens. The service is great to and they keep that food fresh about every 15 min. Need to find a better drink option with all that tastiness they got though. And they got a salad bar

The area where we were seated was a bit cramped, which made it difficult and awkward for our magnificent servers ( Stacy and Carlos) to serve. We ordered the calamari appetizer. Everyone at the y table loved it except me really enjoyed it. I like my squid a little less squishy... the sauce was nice, though. My entree, the crusted trout was simply magnificent. It was cooked perfectly! The crispness of the coating was just right as was the texture of the fish. The mushroom and dried red pepper yum y topping the fish was oh, so good! I could have used a little more of that. I wish that the fish had cone with a vegetable side. It came with rice (which had some very hard nots in it) , but nothing green. In order to get a vegetable, you have to order a side for two. They also don't let you substitute the side that comes with your dish for another. Ultimately, I went without. We had margarita, 5 o'clock somewhere, and a flight of mimosas. They were all quite good. We finished the meal with the carrot cake and fried apple pies. The apple pies are reminiscent of old school McDonald's fried pies. But the star of the show was the carrot cake. If you don't get this...I feel sorry for you. It is truly the best I EVER had. Moist, flavorful, fluffy cream cheese icing. It was perfect. I highly recommend this restaurant. They have done a great job and are determined to please you. Managers are constantly on the floor and checking to confirm that guests are satisfied. Let's support this local restaurant!

First, I will say that I love the renovations and new decor. Reminds you of a lush 5-star steakhouse. Servers are still friendly and attentive. But the quality of the food served now is hit or miss. We started with the crab cake appetizer and it was delicious. We were a little disappointed that they were out of the kids' chicken tenders but they accommodated us by providing grilled chicken breast instead. We ordered the lobster ravioli and grilled halibut entrees. The lobster ravioli was pretty good. But after a few bites of the halibut filet.. I saw that it was undercooked! I mean almost raw in the center!! I was so disappointed! The dish tasted okay yet nothing to rave about. For a high-end restaurant this is unacceptable. When the server asked if I wanted a to-go box for my meal since everyone else had finished theirs, I showed him the raw fish and he apologized and said he was going to show it to the chef and took my plate away. A manager never came to our table to apologize, but we heard someone from the kitchen say to our waiter 'offer them a free dessert!' They did comp my entree without us asking for it and gave us free dessert. But after not being able to finish my meal and feeling sick that I had potentially eaten raw fish, I was done. Our waiter was very gracious about it and the other wait staff have been so nice to us over the years. It's just sad to see this place go down.

One of my favorite southern humorist, Lewis Grizzard often mentioned Sprayberry's in his books and columns. In business for 100 years, it truly is a part of Georgia BBQ history. As I usually do when I visit, I got the Lewis Grizzard special, a chopped pork sandwich, onion rings & Brunswick Stew. All tasted great. If you like a very thick, smooth consistency stew, you will likely enjoy their version. It was about 2:30 on a Wednesday afternoon, yet there were several other diners in the restaurant. The staff was pleasant, professional and accommodating, even coming outside and offering to take my picture as I was shooting pix of the location outside...Southern hospitality at its best.

The server was a poorly trained high school girl who rushed us thru the whole meal and sat at the counter with her back to us eating her dinner. The dirty dishes were left sitting in front of us but we wanted to linger for conversation so, when I could not get her attention, I moved the dishes to an empty table myself. Beer and wine service would be nice too. A shame because the food is top notch.
