I've never experienced anything like this. The server never came back to check on us. We went to find her twice. Then my sisters order came incorrect. She had to wait another 30 min for her order to come and it was still not right. Server blamed it on the cooks. Who knows. Best part was the band!

Our first visit was a year ago and I loved how authentic it was. The food was good and the atmosphere made you very nostalgic. Antiques every where you looked, someone took a lot of time in this place and I loved it. We went back to take our kids yesterday and found out they had a fire a few months back, I was so sad for them. To have lost so many memories, my heart hurts for them. They ate rebuilding and are in a place behind the old one. The food is still just as good. The waitress wasn't the best, she didn't think to refill our drinks at all unless we asked. I look forward to going back again. I am going to share the pictures I took last year as I think its important to remember what they had.

After seeing a YouTube review of this place, I couldn't wait to try it out. Supposedly, the ribs were the best around. I was really disappointed after trying them. The meat didn't fall off the bone like he claimed & was actually kind of hard to remove. They were a little dry as well. They tasted ok & the bbq was alright, but hardly the best around. The mashed potatoes and gravy would have been great, except for the pepper they put in them. I can't eat pepper. The fried apples were okay, but they tasted kind of old. I walked around the store after my meal, and although they had a lot of old antique stuff to look at, besides the assortment of candy, there really wasn't a whole lot of unique gift items. It's hard to believe this place has a 4 star rating. Maybe they used to be better, but now, I'd recommend going somewhere else.

We had the buffet-I thought most of the food was pretty good- not fantastic. The fried chicken and the potato casserole were my favorites. Didn’t enjoy the cornbread or catfish as much. The. Undeterred has a lot of variety and a nice salad bar. The stew was a little tasteless. The country was great. The staff were very friendly and offered a lot of free samples.

Why are animals such as cats allowed to roam around? Isn’t that unsanitary?

Cats are never allowed in the food areas. In the hotel area they are doing the age old service.
