My Anniston family eats here regularly and especially when they have large family gatherings. On my trip home to Florida, we were the first ones in the restaurant for lunch. Everything was so clean and fresh at the buffet and the food was especially delicious. One thing we always appreciate is the attention the servers offer in the side room for small groups. They treat everyone like family! AND, the meals are a great value pricewise. read more

It was alright. Staff were very friendly. Food was a little bland, the desserts were bomb.

(4/5) Western Sizzlin Steakhouse & Buffet - Oxford, AL Western Sizzlin in Oxford offers a great dining experience for anyone who loves a wide variety of buffet options paired with friendly service. The staff here is always fast and welcoming, making sure your meal starts off right. The buffet features an impressive selection, from steaks and fresh salads to an entire spread of desserts. The pecan pie, cookies, and especially the bread pudding stand out as must-tries. On weekends, the breakfast buffet is a real treat, and with doors opening at 10:30am during the week and 7am on weekends, it's a convenient choice for early or midday dining. With large seating areas and a very fair price point--about $17 per person including tip--the value is hard to beat. That said, there are a few drawbacks. Some dishes can be overly salty, and at times the food doesn't seem as fresh as it could be. The building and décor show their age, and the buffet plates could use an update as well. Even with these minor issues, Western Sizzlin remains a wonderful choice for an affordable and satisfying buffet meal. For the variety, price, and friendly service, it's a solid 4 out of 5 stars.

Food wasnt as fresh as it should have been, it was either overcooked and cold or not cooked thoroughly. Customer service was poor and terrible, we had to wait a full 20-30 minutes for our drinks to show up, one while we were not notified of our waitress being on her " lunch break" supposedly. The noise in the whole establishment was loud and not for families, it was too loud and not recommended going. A waitress by the name of Jasmine in particular slammed our drinks onto our table right in front of our faces and her demeanor about herself is totally not for working with the public. I will not recommend going to this establishment and it was my 1st time, not doing it again. read more

Food was good.. better than Golden Corral for sure.. Only problem I saw wasn't anything the restaurant did... but a couple of the customers dropped the tongs on the ground and put them on the food again.. which made me mad... But the restaurant immediately took that food and replaced it with new after I reported it.. Very nice people working there.. read more

Did not like the food. Price wasn't too bad. Paid $90 for a family of 7. However, I would not recommend eating here unless you like food that literally has no taste. read more

First off, we've been eating here at Oxford ,Al for 30+ years and love it. However, we went there today for lunch; The food was good as always but there are long rugs in the floor beside the bar and my wife's electric chair wheeles kept getting hung in them rolling up under her chair which really embarrassed her. The floor was really damp under the rugs, they must have just mopped the floor and it was real slippery causing them to slide. When I told an attendant they didn't apologize or nothing just acted like it was OUR fault. read more

The food was absolutely horrible. How does this place have a rating higher than 1 star??? The steak was cold and you couldn't chew it enough to swallow safely. The "grilled vegetables were ice cold and under cooked with zero seasoning. The chicken was dry but better than most everything else. Maybe we went on an off day but it was Easter and you would think they would up their game a little bit it wasn't really busy either... Not sure but I will never eat here again. EVER! read more

food was okay. but the service was terrible, meaning the waitress and staff at front desk were terribly rude, and find it just fine to cuss and call people names for no reason whatsoever. read more

First let me say the food was great, fresh and the buffet was very well full and clean, the dessert bar could be better not really any options and what they did have was not great. We are in the south so when I see peach cobbler I like to have some but man who ever made this today should be ashamed of themselves and they are not a true southerner. Second service was good could have been better the staff all seemed like they really didn't want to be at work so that kind mad the atmosphere seem off. They was moderately busy but not to the point you couldn't hear yourself think. read more

A great variety! We enjoyed it greatly! The servers kept our drinks full throughout our meal. I'd recommend them to anyone.

Great service. I mean, for real. The servers bust it in there. They are friendly, hustling, and thoughtfully responsive. The steak is cooked well done and medium. It's presliced and goes like hot cakes. The salad bar is well stocked, and the hot foods are really hot. Haven't had a bad experience here. The only downside is it can be super crowded/loud. But even crowded, I have never had to wait to be seated. read more

Their buffet is one of the best in the area ,it has a wide variety of foods on it and the staff is real friendly

I go to this Western Sizzlin once a month for a meeting of people during breakfast. The place was just remodeled and looks great. The breakfast buffet has a numerous amount of items to choose from including steak, bacon, biscuits, fried catfish, fried chicken, and more. Also, there is also an omelette station where someone will cook you up your own personalized omelette. The place can be very busy during the breakfast buffet because large groups do come. But the lines on the buffet move fast and the food is replenished often. Best of all, your drink during the breakfast buffet is included with the price. The breakfast buffet is under $9 and is the best value in town. read more

Great place for breakfast had it all enjoyed it very much and the service was excellent

First time to go but not the last. Everything was delicious and appetizing. Service was great. Hope to go again soon. read more

Omg I normally do not do buffets. But tried this out with a family members. Tuesday night is senior night Wednesday is kids night. They eat free and put us in a room to watch a movie while eating. They had little airlines so they can put together and all. The staff was very nice and pleasant. They were very welcoming to all of us. While visiting I seen how the staff was wiping down, and restocking the bar frequently. They had a lot of different options on the bar also. I only compliant is that I felt like our waitress wasn't as attentive to us as she should have been. A lot of our drinks were empty. She brought my dad hot iced tea as a refill. She didn't bring him ice or even offer. We had to wait for her to come back to request it. I would definitely come back to this location again. read more

They're always good and I always know what to expect because the menu is pretty much the same depending on the time of day you're going.

Western Sizzlin' is the perfect "home cooking" restaurant. The service is 5star. The environment is 5star. And the food...made me remember and think of my MOTHER'S cooking. The selections and choices on the buffets (yep that's plural, not just one) are also 5star, freshly prepared and a taste to gratify any down home palate. The salad bar not only has more selections than most restaurants but all ingredients are perfectly fresh...looked and tasted as though just picked!!! If you've never eaten there and not sure how to find it, it's across the highway from Oxford Football Stadium on Hwy78. Treat yourself to something genuinely special...GO THERE!!! read more

This particular location was southern hospitality at its finest - welcoming, warm and friendly flirtation! Counteract the salty sizzlin' sausage and pork chops with sweet cream cheese frosting on every dessert cake. read more

I visited this place last night, feb 4 2021. 6:30 pm NEVER AGAIN I am a regular during the day. But had family emergency and decided to stop and eat. BIG MISTAKE. We were seated and the server proceeded to take our order. She didn't write anything down or nothing. Took over twenty minutes to get order my steak tips were suppose to be med well.I was suppuse to have two pieces of tx toast and fries. I got a steak tips CHARRED with the BURNT side down. Guess they figured I wouldn't be able to tell a baked potato and one piece of toast. My husband was supposed to get a eight oz sirloin med. With fries and two tx toast. He got a BURNT steak baked potato and one piece of toast. When we told the server she said let me get those fries for you. So then twenty minutes later she brings out the fries we told her not to worry about it cause we can't eat the steak. She said VERY RUDELY let me get the manager. So another twenty minutes later. This lady comes out of the kitchen with a cooks apron on SAYS she is the manager. We tell her the same above details of our order and she says that she's gonna have to charge us 9.99 for the salad bar and our deings when we question her that the salad bar is only 3.59 she said she would have to charge us the 9.99. We questioned her on why our server didn't write anything down. No answer she just kept repeating herself about us having to pay the 9.99. We don't think she was the manager cause she wasn't wearing the manager attire. Like I said we are regulars during the day. Never have we had any problems during the day. We left and we will not be back NEVER read more

When in the south. A buffet is guaranteed to be a dinner to have atleast once. Always see Western Sizzlins around the country. Never been to one till now. Its on the same level of types of food as Golden Corral or Ponderosa. Went here for lunch yesterday. Hard to turn down a 8 dollar lunch buffet. Even if all you do is eat salad. This place had the biggest salad bar I have seen. The quality of the food on the salad bar and hot side. Was really good. I tried the fried chicken, catfish, plus a few sides. All was good and no complaints. The staff was friendly and nice. The dinning area is clean. A bit outdated but who cares as long as the food is good. I would eat here again. Might try the dinner buffet as it has different option than the lunch buffet. read more

This restaurant has been completely remodeled since I was last in here over a year ago. Nice clean carpet, fresh paint and bright lighting, as well as new food bars! read more

I have never liked eating alone, but found myself at Western Sizzlin hungry and alone at lunch time. It was the best "all by myself" experience I have ever had at a restaurant! My server was helpful and attentive, the food was delicious! I had the buffet and asked for a baked potato, because I was craving a good old fashioned baked potato! And it was incredible! I really only ate salad off the buffet because the potato was big. They have recently remodeled and painted the restaurant, in fact, they closed down to do it. Still has a homey, friendly feel. read more

Went in with low expectations. The first time was dinner and I got a ribeye. It was perfectly cooked, deliciously flavored, and inexpensive. The second time I got the buffet at lunch and enjoyed it too. The service was great both times. This place is not fancy but was a real nice surprise and I would go back anytime. read more

My husband and I are up here for his truck driving school for his class CDL's. The guys in his class suggested that we try the Western sizzlin because we had a terrible experience at Shoney's the night before. (Don't even get me started. The only thing I can say good about that place is the people where friendly). If you're Looking for a good place to eat that makes you think of home cooking and very friendly southern hospitality, you need to give it a try. Everyone was extremely friendly,and did everything to make us feel welcome. The salad bar is exactly what I hope I can find when I go out and want a great salad. Good choice to pick from when it comes to the buffet. Sliced in front of you ham and turkey, ribs, chicken , ext... The sides to pick from are country favorites,greens, corn, pinto beans with corn bread muffins, fried potatoes with onions, I could go on. The desert selection was better than most. Banana pudding, cookies,cake, ice cream with fixins , and more. The easiest way to explain this western sizzlin is, (take Golden Corral and take away all the crowded people pushing and jumping in front of you, messy kids dropping food all over the place and running around , food not being there when you go to get some, and having waitresses that take forever to get something). We loved this place ,the food and the people. We have found a new place to eat when we are in this area again. We will be back again . read more

I came here to eat with family and friends today. I ate at the buffet, and the food was utterly horrible. The only thing that was decent was the rolls. Several things were stale, and the chicken and stake was terribly dry. Everything else just didn't taste like it should've. The staff was ok. I've been here multiple times and every time I come (not by choice) I get sick to my stomach. The food just never tastes like it should. This place is a waste of money. I would advise you to choose another place to eat where the food is actually decent. read more

I know I gave a tip that it was great for breakfast on the weekends, well that then. Their last health dept review was an 82! The food is quickly going down. I couldn't finish any dish I had on plate, no flavor and too much grease. If you want a breakfast go to Waffle House! read more

Went to dinner tonight. Could tell the staff was frantic. Apparently had a manager and waitress walkout. Seemed to hold through and stick it out. Food was decent salad bar was good. Skipped desert cause I had too much steak read more

If buffet is your thing, then this is a good place for you. Food is decent to above average. There is always many choices, from chicken to pork, or shrimps to fish. Everything is warm and fresh. Good staff to help you out. Pricing is very, very reasonable for the amount and type of food you can eat. The place is nice and clean. It does however get a bit loud in there. Overall, this place is highly recommended read more

There was a time when Western Sizzlin' in Anniston meant a great meal -- a decent steak, a wonderful baked potato and a good salad, all at a good price. This place is similar but on a bigger scale. The emphasis is on the huge buffet -- all you can eat. Some of the food is really good, some of it is just so-so. If you like buffets, you'll probably like this. If you're looking for the same type of meal that once was served at the old Western Sizzlin' in Anniston, you may be disappointed. read more

The foods was eh but the service was above eh I would more than likely maybe eat here again.

it was the worst experience I have had at a restaurant in a long time...the food was ok but the staff was so rude...the manager should pay more attention to how his staff treat there customers...My family and I will not be going back there for a long while that is if we ever go back...And the price was pretty steep too for 2 adults and 2 children to eat the buffet it was $52.70...Im just saying for that much we could have eat somewhere much nicer than what we got there... read more
