    Disrespectful to US Veterans - Johnboy's in Cartersville
    Rose F.

    I just got seated when we saw a Veteran come in and ask the korean lady at the register if the restaurant gives a Veteran Discount. The lady was horribly rude, super nasty and severely mean. She was irate and degraded America's Veterans. She even said " we don't care about veterans and their discounts. We don't do that here! This is a restaurant not the government. If you want a Veteran discount go somewhere else. Pay now or get out." - Wow!! The shock was unbearable They get your money as soon as you enter. I hadn't started with getting my food. I asked for a refund after what I witnessed and the waitress said they can't do that. I ended up just leaving. The food was uninteresting and most all the trays we're missing food or empty and you had to wait for them to refill the food so you waste around 20 minutes. That's how long I waited - 20 minutes waiting for the kitchen to bring out food and they brought only one item at a time. Johnboy's Restaurant in Cartersville GA disrespects US American Veterans!! Do not give them the satisfaction of taking your money. Go elsewhere please. The place smells like pee; not clean and food pieces all over the floor. Employee with dreadlocks was smoking outside, came back in and did not wash his hands but started working.

    The kind of place I love!!! They don't have places like this North of the Mason Dixon line! Everything was tasty, AND they had Arnold Palmers on the menu,they must be trying cater to us Northerners! The waitress was supercool! The only thing the South has on us is the cuisine, and this place was an example of that. Next time I'm in town for work, I hope I can get past the veggies and have some room for the main dishes. I did save some room for the banana pudding, and,BANG it was the best part of the night!!!!

    I will say this is the best country buffet I've ever been to! Everybody are so welcoming as soon as I walk in the door . Maybe that's why the whole thing tasted better. It's a very nice ambiance everybody working so hard to put smile on! Be back for sure

    Though the food is good, closing at 8 pm on a Friday or Saturday is absolutely absurd.

We went for the weekend and got the romance…read morepackage, as we arrived into our room the bed had a heart shape with roses along with a bottle of champagne. We were given credit in which we got a couples massage, gun shooting and horseback riding! They have many activities on the resort and the staff is extremely welcoming and friendly! The only downside was we were told something different about the credit and got charged $456 for the massage, the staff realized their mistake and luckily granted us what we were initially told. (I will admit the massage was mediocre for the price.... in my person opinion I wouldn't really recommend doing it but the spa itself is lovely) We visited woodlands grill for lunch and dinner and were extremely surprised with how tasty the food was! 10/10 recommend eating there at least once and visiting the beer garden for additional food options because the menu for the most part is the same at the restaurant and it is the only restaurant on the resort. The beignets were soooooo good, everyone needs to try this. I also recommend getting dinner earlier rather than later because they do run out of certain foods towards the end of the night. It's pricey in the fact that you have to pay for every little thing. (a small water bottle is $3.00) Highly recommend for families or couples just wanting a weekend getaway! For families with children there are lots of activities to keep them occupied such as corn hole, smores outside every night and bike riding that you can rent! I will suggest booking the different excursions in advance because it does get booked very quickly and certain excursions (axe throwing, archery and horseback riding is only available till 3pm at least that's what we were told. Regardless, I will definitely be back one day!

    So this place is expensive as I knew when I booked it, however I expect very upscale. The grounds…read morewere beautiful with many fire pits which was a nice touch. However, the room was very unimpressive (3 stars?) with single ply toilet paper ! we ate at the Woodlands grill which is overpriced, with a very limited menu & a mediocre meal. We went to a concert there so ate an early dinner, after went to the Biergarten for a drink & a snack. got an expensive drink but zero snacks. Geesh, sell peanuts or chips for hungry folks late evening. The whole place seemed so overpriced without the value. Won't be going back!

I ordered the curry beef, I only like beef, onions and green peppers with my curry and they did it right. The curry is fantastic; plenty of sauce, the meat is tender and the onions and peppers are fresh. Pretty spicy curry sauce so beware if you don't like spicy. If you are a curry beef lover then you will be happy. My wife had the Mongolian beef with noodles, she really enjoyed it. It has beef, onions and chives, and the noodles also had a great flavor. My brother had the General Tso's chicken, he also enjoyed it (see pics of all dishes). Plenty of parking, centrally located; the inside is spacious and very clean and has a comfortable feel to it. Prices are great, we paid ~30 bucks for everything so it's very affordable and you get very large portions. This is now our go-to for Chinese cuisine. Highly recommend.
