    The ticket
    Karis M.

    I was feeling like Shoneys buffet & since all of them closed for business in Charleston I decided to take a ride to manning. The food was good I caught brunch. The fried chicken was very well seasoned. The grits was creamy. The bacon was cooked just right. The white rice needed salt. My sprite had a string of hair in it the waitress quickly changed it out for me. I made a strawberry shortcake the cake was soft the strawberries was fresh. If you're looking to eat a good breakfast/ brunch buffet I suggest trying Shoneys.

    The food was very yummy! I tried things I had never tried before! Collard greens ... etc. Service was so friendly and nice. I enjoyed it.

    We love their breakfast buffet, it always offers a wide variety of food, including breakfast items, salad items and dessert as well.the even have an ice cream machine for the kid in us. But I love the strawberry shortcake.

    Ok- I was in Manning to visit family and we ate here twice in the week. I haven't been to Shoney's in probably 10 years - they aren't on the West Coast. The first time was 8 pm on Monday. I ordered the fried chicken salad and it took almost 25 minutes. And they put watery succotash on it - I was ready to agree with 3 stars. But I was convinced to go back on Friday for an earlier dinner. So different! I ordered a Bloody Mary (when did Shoney's add a bar?) and it was so good! I also ordered a grilled chicken sandwich and it was cooked perfectly! I'm not sure what some of the bad reviews were for - it's a Shoneys and they all l look the same and cater to families. When I come back to Manning I'll come back.

    Shoney's of Manning is a Shoney's very much like all other Shoney's with nothing in particular setting it apart or distinguishing it. When I stop by a Shoney's it's either for their Country Fried Steak, as they do a pretty good job of it and I love the buttermilk biscuits that come with it, or their buffet. This time I had the buffet and true to the other Shoney's buffets this one had plenty of food choices. But one things Shoney's always seems to excel at, as did this Shoney's, is a salad bar with really fresh crispy tasting vegetables. As I like to try everything I had a taste of everything on their buffet, and there was plenty. Unfortunately since they didn't have everything labeled, I can't really report exactly what all I had as in the preparation. I can say that I had fried chicken which was rather good but I couldn't necessarily come up with the style. Was the fried chicken Cajun? Was it Country Fried? Was it butter milked or something else? I really wouldn't want to take a chance guessing at it. I had a baked fish but I'm clueless as to exactly what kind of fish. My guess is that it was a tilapia. They did a good job on what was a lasagna type of dish though it wasn't a true Italian in style and another with cabbage dish. What I can be certain about is that it was all rather good, more a belly filler than gourmet type of meal but at what I consider to be bargain prices.

    One of the best eat-in restaurants in Manning. Buffet food is always hot and perfectly cooked. Breakfast or anytime, I highly recommend this place!

    Driving South to Florida on 1/1/18, stopped in Manning and the good Mexican restaurant in town, Mariachis, was closed so went to Shoneys. I thought this was a unique place, but learned it is one of many in this chain. Place seemed clean. Service was good. Food was mediocre, just like a diner, not like a real restaurant. I had Salmon (see picture) which was OK, but nothing special. They have a salad bar and soup too before you enjoy your entrée and later you may want to go to the fruit bar for a sweet taste. One more thing, they serve alcohol - which may be helpful after 11 hours on I - 95.

    Pleasantly surprised by Bistro 221. It's in a very small town along I-95, and you wouldn't…read morenecessarily expect much - but it delivers. From the first phone inquiry to the experience in the restaurant, the people were genuinely polite and welcoming. The atmosphere felt calm, relaxed, and easy. The food exceeded expectations. The Cobb salad was especially good - fresh, well-balanced, and thoughtfully put together, with healthy ingredients and no bacon, which I appreciated. The shrimp tacos were excellent, topped with a slightly sweet/spicy, mysterious sauce that worked really well. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!!!

    We had lunch here for the first time today. They have street parking or parking in the back. There…read moreis a bar area, general sitting area or a few tables under a cover porch for nice days. The staff were all very polite and friendly. We were seated quickly with drink orders taken. It took a few minutes to get the drinks, but thats OK. A larger table was seated before us so its all good. We placed our food order of the Loaded Fries for an appetizer, 2 Killer Club sandwichs(pesto on the side)with fries, Secret Philly with onion rings and the Blackened Fish Tacos with the chips salsa and queso. The Loaded Fries were delicious! Plenty of bacon and queso on them. The Philly was delicious, onion rings hot and crispy. The kids loved their Club sandwiches. They were HUGE and the kids could have easily split one. The Blackened Fish Tacos were the only negative on our trip. They were pale colored, hardly warm, and the slaw was soggy. Honestly they were aweful! My husband tried a bite and said it tasted like it was from yesterdays trash. I have seen tons of good reviews on them so I'm not sure if they have been changed or I got them on a bad day or what. I hate sending food back, so I just ate them. I tried throwing pesto from the clubs, salsa or queso on bites trying to make them better, but nothing really helped. Overall we will definitely be back again, just not ordering the tacos!
