A Southern Buffet Done Right!…read more If you're ever in Colquitt, GA, make it a point to stop by Moby Dick's! This place is the real deal when it comes to classic Southern comfort food served buffet-style. The catfish was perfectly seasoned and fried to golden crispiness--truly some of the best I've had. The carving station was a standout, offering freshly sliced meat that was both tender and flavorful. The vegetables were home-cooked and tasted just like grandma used to make--creamy mac and cheese, seasoned greens, and more. The dessert bar? Absolutely to die for. I had the peach cobbler and it was warm, gooey, and full of flavor--just the way it should be. The atmosphere was lively and a bit noisy, but that's just part of the charm. It's a very family-oriented spot with self-seating and pay-at-the-front service. Everyone was kind, helpful, and kept things moving smoothly. Highly recommend if you're craving Southern hospitality and a full belly. I'll definitely be back!

The service here is a little weird and jarring at first. I hadn't gone more than 10 feet through…read morethe door when I was asked "What'll you have to drink?" You just have to know the procedure, but it wasn't only me, a Northerner whose brain hadn't yet fully recalibrated for the local accent. Locals were confused too. Procedure is this: tell them your drink preference (I had water), pick up a tray, put it on the counter, pick out a main, three sides, a dessert, slide it down to the register, pay, and take it to your table. At that point do you begin eating? No! Remove your items from the tray and they come by and pick it up. Now begin! You may be thinking "Soup Nazi" from Seinfeld but I assure you it didn't feel that way. Just the quirky way they run the place. The waitress did warm up after I was there a while, came over to ask where I was from, etc. And to try to convince me to come back for breakfast! This is cafeteria style, with everything prepared ahead of time and kept warm on steam trays. So how do they keep that fried chicken so crunchy and delicious? Perhaps the best I've ever had, the batter so crunchy you could probably hear me eating from another room, assertively peppery, the large leg and thigh pieces perfectly cooked and juicy. (White meat also available.) My sides were lima beans, turnip greens, and yams. The highlight was the yams: super sweet but not in a bad way, balanced by good seasonings. The beans were fine, a bit salty. The only disappointment were the turnip greens, too finely chopped and overcooked. The portion sizes were decent. Also included is corn bread. Two choices: baked or fried. Never heard of fried so I tried that. Interesting but a little chewy and not so much corn flavor; next time I'd get the baked. Finishing this rather large lunch was a challenge for me but I managed, while taking in the local ambience. I saved the dessert for later. Dessert? Yes. I was also asked on ordering what I wanted for dessert. The only one that appealed was the red velvet cake (the others were a cobbler and bread pudding) so I got that. I assumed it was included but when I paid I saw it was not. $4; no big deal. It didn't look that good, a thin 1 inch slice tightly shrink wrapped on a paper plate. Looks were deceiving. The first time I actually liked red velvet cake, a light crumbly texture and cream cheese frosting that tasted of more than sugar. With the amount of frosting this tiny slice was quite filling and I'm glad it wasn't larger. All this for a little over $21. I think this was including tip but I'm not positive. Either way, great deal!

We were seated promptly on both visits, and the wait staff are very pleasant and helpful. I'm a big fan of most types of Asian food, but I didn't find anything here that was outstanding. Some of the dishes were very cold, as if they had been made in advance, refrigerated, and then reheated for the serving line. I can understand why they would do this, given the huge number of dishes on offer. Still, $42 for 2 people (including soft drink and a tip) seems a bit much for what you get.

Now that's some good eating right there, I tell ya. Simple southern cooking like mamas, grandmas,…read moreaunts and all kinds of kinfolk and friends put on the table and we dig into with gusto. Fried chicken was that simple salt/pepper, flour and fry chicken. Nice crust and tasty moist meat. Macaroni and cheese was about as close to the way my mother used to make it and I enjoyed every bite. A little creaminess with chunks of melted cheddar mixed in. My only complaint would be that the cheese on top was not browned enough for my personal taste. The black eyed peas had onion in them so my wife had to work around the onion but I enjoyed that onion flavor. The peach cobbler was the good stuff and my wife even had some and really enjoyed it. That qualifies as high praise from the picky eater. Now we have to talk about their thin delicate "cornbread". It's so thin it will break into pieces when you pick it up. I suspect this was developed by someone who's favorite part of cornbread is the crusty edges. For those who agree, this paper thin delicacy will be addictive. I know I had plenty and had to resist going back for more. The outside and inside are pretty simple. It is a buffet with multiple meat, vegetable and dessert choices. The service was good. The owners were very friendly and accommodating. The price is good for the delicious food. We will be stopping here pretty regularly now for lunch when we are running up and down US 19. So glad we found them.
