Went to Kaceys for the first time and I was very impressed. The selection is small, mostly southern food classics such as fried chicken, mac and cheese, Salisbury steak, mashed potatoes, okra, etc. But the smaller section does not take away from the quality. They had a large section dedicated to fried chicken and it was awesome. The price was also one of the better deals I have ever seen in 2026. A very southern and homey interior provides for a very interesting eating experience. But the food to price ratio is out of this world. Good job Kacey read more

Still great!! Out Must Stop when traveling through this area. Today we fasted on Southern fried chicken , fried fish and liver and onions. Great selection of vegetables if you want to eat healthy. read more

This restaurant/buffet has just given up. They're not even trying. Gordon Ramsey needs to pay them a visit before they go out of business Bland, tasteless, gelatinous fare is masquerading as food. The waitress was openly hostile. I had the temerity to ask for silverware and she snapped at me that she had already put the silverware on the table. When I went back to the table, my dinner mate had a single fork. I went back to the front to ask again. She snapped again that she had already put the silverware on the table. I explained that we only had one fork for two people and she stormed off. When I got back to the table, she was audibly slamming down the water and finally provided a second fork. I kind of wish she hadn't as the food deserved to go straight in the trash. When we got back in the car, we searched until we found some mints, so we could put all memory of this place behind us. read more

My bother loves this place and I understand! Today's buffet was clean,fresh and loaded with country vegetables. The greens, field peas and snaps, green beans and corn were all very good. Mashed potatoes and a formed hamburger patty was good. The fried fish was crunchy and good (I didn't ask the type of fish because it is sometimes better not to know. Home style potatoes were better than mine. They had chicken pot pie but I didn't have room for it. The peach cobbler was sweet but my bro loved it. They even had spaghetti and fried rice in addition to a salad and dessert bar. This was a great lunch and I am in a food coma. read more

Been a long time since I've eaten there, but it was wonderful food. It always was. I love the Liver & Onions . My wife won't even let me cook them in the house, so this is the only way I can get it. read more

Plenty of good southern home cooking on the buffet. Just like mamas dinners after church on Sunday.

THE FOOS WAS HORRIBLE! I had the runs 2x couldn't even leave the parking lot, before I even left the restaurant (food poisoning) I put the rest of the food in my dogs portable treat bowel I carry in my purse as after the incident in the restroom I didn't want any more of their NASTY FOOD! I had a water cup with me and poured the rest of a half a glass of tea (mostly just ice cubes ) facility charged me extra $17 dollars for this! to add insult to injury I had to keep asking waitress to fill drink and she was vacuuming while there was a dinning room1/2 FULL of ppl. So dust was flying EVERYWHERE. Gross! the only thing I positive I can say about this place is my dogs enjoyed the food. i guess it was fit for them! read more

Kacey's Home Cooking Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

Although cut differently, the fried chicken is the best I have had in town. There is a changing variety of down-home sides and meats, changed daily. There is an interesting salad bar and an adequate dessert bar. The price has risen quite a bit over the last few years, yet it is bargain for a buffet. read more

Was in town again and came back to this place. Still great food and great service. Can't wait to come back again. read more

I picked this place from Google Maps as it was close to my route back to I-10 and easy in and out. Food: The fried chicken was quite good, plentiful, and hot. The Fried Green Tomatoes were OutStanding! They were thick, well seasoned, and had plenty of crunchy batter on them. The mashed potatoes were well seasoned and a good accompaniment to the chicken. The broccoli casserole had plenty of broccoli, rice, and cheese. The salad bar was fresh, nothing spectacular, and the only thing on it that stood out was the cole slaw. There were plenty of cooked vegetables to choose from, but none had any seasoning that their name would imply. Service: Our server was also outstanding. She was quick to stop by often and helped us with our take-out order at the end. I apologize that I didn't get her name, but she was well worth the tip we gave her. The buffet itself was clean, well-managed, and refilled nonstop. Ambiance...Ooohhh Lawd! This place is a hot mess! Several areas were blocked off and not in service. The check-out area was cramped and not inviting at all. They apparently do a very big takeout business, so it would be helpful if they could set aside a separate area for that line; it would certainly speed it up for those on a meal break. The only things I would go back for are the chicken and fried green tomatoes. Honestly, I can make everything else better myself. read more

Always consistently good, always fresh and well stocked. Love this place. The ambiance is not great, they need help with that.

The restaurant is dark and gloomy and the food was terrible! They even charged full price for my 2 1/2 year old granddaughter For 3 adults and 1 small child, our total was over $60.00, and for TRASH! Never again. read more

Call before you drive over here; Yelp shows open until 9pm, hostess told us they closed at 8, five minutes after we showed up. People still eating, fried chicken piled high going to waste, but she didn't want to serve us. read more

If you're a fan of Southern Home Cooking, put this on your list. I tried the fried chicken meal with cornbread, collards and Mac n Cheese. It was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend A++++ read more

Okay, Kacey! I see you! It's been a few years since I visited and I was not wowed the first time. But things have changed. I ordered takeout here on Friday and it was delightful, delicious, and nostalgic. The sides were the real deal. Nothing canned here. The fried pork chop and liver and onions were just like my grandmother made me. It nearly brought me to tears. Whatever they are doing now, they need to KEEP doing. Amazing. I'll be back next week! read more

Staff was Frendly , food was edible, but nothing spectacular, we have been in the past and it was much better. Also, they used to have ice cream for dessert and there was no ice.cream, fair price with the senior discount read more

We have dined here several times and are never disappointed with the food, service or cleanliness of this place. The food is fresh, hot and plenty of it. You have much to choose from, and the dessert bar doesn't disappoint. The staff are always friendly and work very hard. Please tip your wait staff, as they deserve it. Have a complaint? They will make it right! Great price and very affordable even after being open years. The place is definitely wheelchair accessible. Come in expecting to eat like royalty, but on a pauper's budget. read more

I love home country cooking and a buffet with all of the fixins is what Kacey's offers. There aren't any frills or fancy dishes but what they do cook is excellent and that is the charm of the place. Their chicken is fantastic and not dry the times I've been. There salad bar is huge and their desserts are classics like banana pudding and chocolate pie. Their prices are very reasonable and you will leave full and happy. read more

I love supporting local businesses and Kasey's didn't disappoint. It's true country cooking at its best with a lot of homemade vegetable choices, something you don't usually see. Pole beans, butter beans, cabbage, greens, etc. all cooked just right. Desserts included a beautiful homemade peach cobbler and a number of other enticing choices. I had the fried chicken, it was perfectly cooked and delicious. I also had the pole beans and butter beans, and cabbage, all were delicious as was the peach cobbler. My only reason for knocking off a star is because the ambience is really lacking. I get it that's all about good food and a great price but at some point a little paint would go a long ways. The orange color is offputting but I have to admit the food more than makes up for it !The interior has great high, vaulted ceilings with tons of potential.... A little imagination would go a long ways. Although it makes sense to have the buffet centered in the restaurant, I personally would move it against a wall where it is not the focal point. Sonny's barbecue is a good example with their salad bar, it doesn't interfere with their look. I'm putting these things out because I think they would be even more successful with minor changes. Either way, I will be back for delicious food and I encourage others to give it a try, ambience or not. $12 is an outstanding price for the quality of food and service was wonderful too. We will be back! read more

You can't beat the price point of $8 buffet! The restaurant us a little dated but it meets a budget meal establishment. I would say the fried chicken and the mash potato are the best items. Everything else is pretty standard for a low cost buffet. In a college town like Tallahassee this place has its client base. I was happy to find it on a Sunday afternoon right off I-10 exit. I would visit again. read more

Solid four stars for delivering what they claim to make - southern food. Most items on the buffet were good, but a few improvement could be made if they stayed away from canned veggies and other canned items. Fresh veggies are more labor intensive, yes, but in the long run, a value to both the restaurant and the customer. Buffet was stocked well, and was kept stocked throughout our meal. Service was super friendly and prompt. Why the four stars? Well, the canned veggies are one, and the second is for charging an adult meal price to kids 8 and older. Really? It isn't that the prices are bad, or that the meal was unaffordable, but I am seeing this trend in a few establishments around Tallahassee where they are counting 8 year olds as adults. I just don't understand the logic there. We will be back. It isn't the genre of food or restaurant type (buffet) that we frequent, but certainly hits the spot when there is a craving! read more

Food was pretty good. I wasn't too happy with the lighting, it seemed dark at the table we were eating at, but the food was delicious! I would come here again, can't wait to try Monday and Tuesday's menu! Customer service was great, our waiter did an excellent job!! I only gave 4 stars simply because of the way we were greeted when we came in (lady seemed rude) and the lighting situation. read more

I just recently got my wisdom teeth removed so I've been doing nothing with my Life except catching up on all of the reviews I've been needing to leave and deleting their accompanying food pics out of my phone. Today is Part 3 of "The Wisdom Teeth Chronicles: The Sad, I Can't Eat Anything Solid Saga Continues." Kacey's is a buffet joint that serves Down South, old fashioned country grub. What's on the buffet differs daily but one benefit this place has over other all you can eat places is that you can go to their website and they'll inform you of which dishes are starring on the buffet that day. I don't know about you but I think it's pretty neat to be able to plan my gluttony appropriately. Kacey's won't be winning any awards soon but they should win you over with the abundance of choices they have, with the hot and freshness they serve them with and with the tastiness of it all. You'll see standard Southern buffet items such as fried or baked chicken, pork chops and meatloaf along with mac and cheese and mashed potatoes but you'll also find a couple of unusual, but pleasantly surprising, buffet elements like fried chicken livers AND gizzards. One aspect that has me despondent about Kacey's is the increase in dues. You used to be able to get in and out of here for about $7. Now, as with most everything else in Life, the cost has been jacked up to bout a $10 price tag. Not the worst thing in the world but certainly not a welcomed alteration. Nonetheless, Kacey's does what it's supposed to do: Gives you really good buffet food at a buffet price which should please our eyes being bigger than our stomachs. read more

Ok, really, a five star review for a buffet? Yeah, really! Why? Because AYCE delicious Southern goodness for $8 (including tax) per person, that's why! It satisfies my inner fat girl, and my inner cheapskate all in one visit! We found this place on the drive to Valdosta, GA. we were starving and wanted fried chicken, and kept passing KFC buffets, so decided that's what we wanted. When I was searching Yelp, I came across this place, and decided to stop here. We also stopped on our way back from Florida a week later! It's set back from the road, and it looks like a chalet of some sort, but my Waze app took me right to it, so it's not too hard to find. We walked in and the prices were on a chalkboard as you go in. It's $7.44 per person for the AYCE buffet, which is all they have, I think. It's not a huge buffet, but man everything is hot and fresh and delicious! The fried chicken is tender and juicy and so delicious. Some of the best I have had besides my own. They have one long bar of hot food, and it changes every day, but they list it on their website. It's all changed out frequently and kept full, and you can see the steam coming off of the food as it sits there. They have another long bar that's half cold salads (chicken and I think they had tuna one night) and pasta, and then the rest desserts. Then on the side there is the salad bar. There's not a huge amount of choices, but enough to keep even the pickiest eater happy (I know, I'm married to one and he was full and happy afterwards). They have ice cream in single serve cups that they offer after the meal as well. It's good, especially with the cake they serve as one of the desserts. The service was really good too. Young college kids mostly, but they were very friendly and attentive, and kept us filled with drinks, and our table cleared of plates. Neither time we went they were super busy, but I'm not sure if that's normal, or if we just happened to go when they weren't busy (both on a Saturday at different times). I wish they had one closer to me, as I would probably eat here a LOT, but maybe that's a good thing as I'm not sure I could run all the calories off! read more

This has become my go to place for veggies since Seminole Wind left town. Nothing fancy, but good home cooking at a reasonable price. There has been steady improvement in the taste of the vegetables since they first opened in 2012. The pole beans and potatoes and the black eyed peas are particularly good. Service has always been good when we have gone there. read more

Some of the best home cooking I've ever had. Just like going to old fashioned family reunion the food is that good

I was so looking forward to some Southern cooking -especially fried chicken, when we discovered this buffet. However I was disappointed in that the chicken was dry. Im pretty sure the mashed potatoes were from a box and oddly there was no gravy in sight on the buffet. The salad bar was adequate and the salad dressings were good. Good gooey brownies were found in the desert area. The peach cobbler was odd with a dry very thin crust on top of the peaches. The service was very good. We may try it again but will try a different main dish. read more

Sad to say but true old fashion country buffets are dwindling. THE ALONG CAME KACEY's!!!! Wow, all hope. Is not gone. This is a real deal, old fashion style, down home cooking eat in' place.

Keep everything exactly as it is....me and my party will be back every time we're in Tally. read more

Went up for seconds because it was so dang good!! read more

Visited here not to long ago and highly recommend! I was craving a buffet with home cooking and Kaceys hit the spot!

After being on the road for 21 days it was great to finally get some good vegetables . We will be back read more

AMAZING! This is home-style cooking at its very best! There is something for everyone, carnivore or vegetarian. There is fish, chicken, beef, loads of vegetables, tons of fruit, a salad bar, and wonderful desserts of every kind. There is even a sign that says you can ask for ice cream, if you so choose. The decor is low-keyed, casual, a nice blend of radio music coming from the speakers, at a comfortable, relaxing volume. This is a good place for the family, and priced at only $7.50 (plus drink), during both lunch and dinner! The moment I stepped through the door, there was a wonderfully pleasant aroma; clean, fresh, and mouth-watering. My first impression of the buffet was color; bright yellows, oranges, and greens, just as nature intended. Despite having arrived mid-afternoon (I was there just before 3:00 p.m.), the food trays were fresh and full, and there was an ever-present attendant keeping things clean, stirred, and filled. I was so overwhelmed by the number of choices, I decided to try just a tablespoon of everything; green beans with new potatoes, corn off the cob, cheese grits, sweet potatoes, macaroni and cheese, butter beans, hush puppies, fried chicken, baked fish, baked chicken leg, and corn bread, topped off with a glass of sweet ice tea! What really impressed me about the food was how perfectly seasoned everything was; leaving no bad after-tastes on the palate. I found no bland under-salting or briny over-salting; no heavy garlic tastes on the fish, and no over-doses of pepper on the chicken or fish. It was perfectly balanced! In addition, everything was cooked to perfect peak, no over-cooking into mush! I was truly impressed! I hesitantly tried their cheese grits, and I really must say, they were delicious! Too often, these types of dishes tend to be heavy with fake cheese, and the grits can be sandy and undercooked. Not these! Again, perfectly balanced! The sweet potatoes were also exceptionally flavored, just brown sugar and cinnamon, according to my server, but it was such a light and delicate flavor, it really brought out the wonderful sweet taste of the sweet potato itself. The hush puppies were just the way I like them, light and fluffy, (not burdened down by heavy garlic), with just the slightest crisp on the outside. The fish was equally battered lightly, (not grease-filled), and fluffy white on the inside. Very satisfying! The chicken was lightly crispy, (I had a thigh), a perfect gray meat inside! No pink under-cooking here, or grease-filled skin, this was Sunday-dinner-at-grandma's fine! My server was perfectly attentive, and chatted with those who desired it, but went about her business as soon as a customer walked in. She was friendly, professional, and well-informed on the food preparation. She kept an eye on my ice tea glass and made sure I had as much as I wanted. She was very conscientious about keeping the dining area clean, keeping food off the floor as diners vacated their tables. So a special thank-you to 'Mary', for helping to make my dining experience a very pleasant one! Over-all, they are doing everything right! The place had a small lull when I first arrived, but was already filling up again when I left 45 minutes later. I regret to say that I was so filled with all my lunch choices, I had no room for all the yummy desserts they were offering! But I will most definitely be back! read more
