Just a great place to eat. Menu is not overwhelming and this is a good thing. The food is always delicious and warm. The wait staff is always willing to help in any way. Must try the Hot brown and the catfish and the salad and the buffalo chicken salad. It is all a must try. If near Jackson on Sunday please try the brunch buffet. It changes weekly but it is great. This restaurant should be a destination. This is a place you could eat at every night and have a great meal.

Service was above and beyond. However, service won't keep me coming back. The decor is the least of the upgrades needed, but the food quality was by far in need of improvement. I have never eaten mushrooms from a can and paid for it. The pizza was flat in flavor, but the garlic bread was out of this world. They should coat the pizza crust in the garlic oil.

I don't normally eat at buffets. This one was very good. Clean. Staffed & stocked.. Really good selection. Staff are really nice, although they have NO clue what you're saying. A couple of the ladies will say YES to everything. (Be careful what you say & ask for.)
Would definitely go back!

Very good food!!! Great ice cream.... The idea of tanning & pizza was strange. BUT the food was really good!!!
My only complaint, they left the meat off of a pizza. (What, can't be perfect!) Not a big deal... they took care of me.
My team and/ or I ate here almost every day. (Or combination... for a month)

My wife and I were able to purchase four sandwiches, two fries, and two drinks for a bit over $12. Some folks can't eat the sesame seeds that add little to taste, so they altered the buns on two. Fish sandwiches normally don't include pickles, but they added them at my request, and spaced them out (which McD's rarely does).
So if service was good and food was affordable, why just a four-button review? The food was decent, but not outstanding. In short, it was fast food. The fries were the best part, and they do have Heinz ketchup.

This Subway is part of a Shell gas station and Apple Mart. It offers everything on the Subway menu and has a dining area and soda machine for refills. Our sandwich maker was friendly and professional. The bread was soft and fresh. The subs were made exactly as ordered. I highly recommend this location of Subway.

We arrived like 10 minutes before closing, not realizing their closure times, they accommodated us anyway, which most establishments when closing frown at you for messing up their clean tables etc. when trying to close down, ( and I understand that) our waitress was so friendly/ never acted as though we were putting them out. Their pizza was really awesome for a quick service restaurant, their wings were as good as some high end restaurants and their bread sticks great, their salad bar very fresh and large variety to choose from. Our pizza hut at home really sucks, so we were QUIET IMPRESSED!!!! The manager had seen where 3 other tables that his waitresses had served, and served well, as we were there, no tips left by none of these 3 large groups? He took his delivery money ( yes the manager had to do deliveries as was short-handed) and he split his $ for the 2 waitresses that did not get any tips!!! We were impressed with that as well. Just a very friendly environment and makes for a nice meal when you do not feel as though you are putting people out/ continue to be as you are and your facility will prosper!!!

As soon as you walk through the door you get greeted with a smiling face, overall the food was fabulous, and HOT and I didn't have to wait long so they held up there end with the advertisement of hot-n- readys.
10. KFC

Reviewed By Fred T - Hindman, Kentucky
I had the chicken sandwich which was very good, and was the first time I had tried it. Moreover, I liked it so well that I had a second one at the Jackson, Ky location. Later in the week while in Hazard, Ky I found myself Hungary so I decided to get one at the KFC there. It left a lot to be desired. The Jackson store did great.
