Best fish and seafood in town!! Weekends here are when the buffet is available and it has a huge selection of delicious desserts, variety of seafood, fries, or you can order specifically off the menu.

I used to come to the restaurant weekly with my dad almost 30 years ago, and when I came back to visit with my family, it was just as good as I remember it. It’s worth going out of your way for their weekend buffet with thin, crispy fried catfish and boiled shrimp.

Hidden gem in Farmerville! Weekend buffet best value around. Fried catfish legendary! Update for new owners. It's been returned to its place it should be as a great place eat in Farmerville. Food is fresh and well made. Lots of changes and atmosphere is less dated! New owners are engaged ,and service is much better.
