    Fried chicken, mashed potatoes, Mac and cheese and roll
    Bill D.

    I'm eating this great place based on a buffet restaurant experience, hence the 5 stars. I and a friend came in today (June 8, 2025) around noon, and walking in we had a good feeling about the place. Every single one of the staff welcomed us in with big smiles and pleasant greetings. I'm not talking about false greetings, I mean that we felt like we just walked into a families house for Thanksgiving! First of all the place is spanking clean from the outside front entrance to the buffet to the tables. They have a big sign inside the front foyer to announce the daily specials. When you come into the main buffet counter, you will find a very well lit buffet with all the dishes laid out immaculately, I mean clean and not your normal buffet. It looks like these folks take pride in how their food looks and it shows. Depending on the day you get different specials, today it was baked chicken, fried chicken, wings or meatloaf as the meat service. So many choices of sides so take your time and choose wisely, or just keep coming back! Today I had the meatloaf with several sides. For my sides I had the dressing, squash casserole and fried okra. Lookee here, that meatloaf was slathered up with ketchup on top, that casserole was moist and with a little crust on it, the dressing made me want some turkey and deviled egged to go with it (gotta remember to come back around Thanksgiving!). The okra was lightly fried and just about as perfect as you want; I'm guessing they either get their okra local or know where to buy it cuz it's FRESH! You get your choice (at least today) of cornbread or roll, so I chose the roll for today, great choice with the meatloaf. I topped it off with the sweet tea and at least they also know how to make good old southern sweet tea for a muggy Georgia day! I got all that (with tip) for less than I pay at other buffets around town, and better food here! Parking is not huge but it is ample for their needs. Location is perfect literally on Hwy 41. I have zero complaints about this place and I'll return just because of the wonderful folks that run this joint. I'm going to highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good buffet in a great atmosphere with some good folk. Y'all come try it out!

    Fried chicken, green beans, mac and cheese, cornbread and the best peach cobbler ever.

    This is the food memories are made of. This brought me back to the roots! Service was exceptional. Everyone is welcoming. It's like visiting family. The atmosphere was calm and relaxing.

    Oh wow!! Where do I begin. This is a wonderful establishment. The restaurant is cafeteria style with a great menu. The owners will make you feel at home.The service is excellent, the food is amazing, all the while the story of these siblings and their spouses coming together to make this place happen and to honor their mother and father will make you smile too! If you are in the mood for good old time cooking this is it. Come to Tom & Hattie's to join the family. Where the food is great. The staff are so very helpful and all smiles. Trust me you will not leave hungry. Make this the stop as you travel to and from your destination.

    New soul food restaurant in Adairsville, GA. Quick service buffet style equal to a meat and 3. Food was just like grandma would make. Fried chicken, greens, mac and cheese, etc.... The staff was extremely friendly and help while picking out your plate. Plan to visit again very soon.

    Offers the best service and even better food I have had from a country buffet restaurant in actual years. BBQ chicken, cream corn, fried okra, corn bread and their (rightfully world famous) peach cobbler. Will go back. Also, A++ sweet tea!

    Fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, collards, roll !

    Hello my little yelplings! I'm not sure if I'm just lucky today after my past week of weird…read morecircumstances, but I actually landed excellent barbecue, in back-to-back visits of barbecue joints! For those of you who don't read my reviews, only about one in five barbecue joints I go to make the cut. The last one that didn't make the cut, was that fast food place Smokin Ds in St Augustine Florida. Anyhow, let's get to Big J's. I'm parked across the street, which I park at semi often, and throughout the years, and have only been next door at the vape shop in the strip mall. I think the other times I've came by they were closed, but they weren't closed today and I kind of expected them to be. I wanted to have supper here last night, but I had to go endure tragedy at the Mexican restaurant in the same row. I noticed they were open today, so I mosied it over about 1:00 p.m. The place is really clean, it's a family run outfit, and they are ALL SO nice. So I wanted a brisket plate, but the nice young gentleman behind the counter told me that it wasn't ready and it would be ready in an hour, so I came back at 2:00 p.m.. I ordered brisket, collards and green beans. Again if you don't follow me, you don't know my culinary history and that on the smoke pit, but this place was just about as good as my own. My collards were fabulous, green beans were off the chain, my brisket was hot, tender and moist. So good! They went above and beyond, the young gentleman at the counter asked me if I was a truck driver after placing my order, which I am an O/O, and I got something free or got a discount, not too sure what it was but I got something! That means a lot, we spend weeks and months away from our families to bring ungrateful people the things they want, so it's a little gestures like that that really makes a difference to us. Well they definitely have a lifetime customer. I just have to make sure when I pull here that they're open. But I'll definitely be back! ***DISCLAIMER*** This pure, uncut, honest review is federally protected under Federal Law by way of Bill #EO14149.

They're exactly my style, great smoke flavor, great rub, and while tender they have a bit of a bite to them. Just the way I like it. The Mac and cheese was just like mom makes it, amazing. I got the spicy green beans and they were also tasty. The collards, what can I say, my wife could NOT stop talking about how good the collards greens were they were the first thing gone from her plate. The BBQ sauce was a bit sweet which normally isn't my thing but there is some secret ingredient in there I couldn't put my finger on that made me not be able to resist it. Lastly Michelle is high energy and fun. What a friendly person. Also loved her "Boss Lady" sign, I totally believe it. Great people, great food. If you're ever in town you've gotta swing by.

I had the sampler plate of pulled pork, brisket and chicken with baked beans and coleslaw. Baked Beans were "ok " but I did not care at all for the slaw. Personal taste leans more towards creamy slaw and this is all about the vinegar, which many prefer. My dinner companion had fried chicken and said it was very good.
