Great food. Buffet style. Salad bar and dessert bar were impressive. Enjoyed eating here. Kind of an "icon" for the Lancaster area. Would eat here again!

Friendly wait-staff. Comfortable seating with pleasant dining room. Great homemade food with a large variety of buffet selections. Children will love it. When the locals love it, you know it is good!
Oh my goodness!!! This buffet is the most amazing. Something for everyone. I ate so much fried chicken. I could not stop. Really!! Juicy tender inside and crispy outside. And let me tell you the cherry cobbler or crisp whatever it is, put some whipped cream on that wonderful pile of lusciousness and you are in food heaven. We tried...

Good choice for smorgasbord in the area. Great fried chicken and really good mashed potatoes. Plenty of choices. Turkey croquettes a little dry.

We found the smorgasbord here to be "average" at best, somewhat surprising in an area loaded with good restaurants and family-style or smorgasbord offerings.

We pointed out if we could be seated at a corner table, since there were a LOT OF EMPTY TABLES! The young lady,...

We stopped here after taking a buggy ride and the food was fantastic. The turkey, stuffing and mashed potatoes made you feel like it was Thanksgiving. The roast beef was so tender and there were so many choices it was hard to decide. Our waitress kept checking on us to make sure everything was good and took extra good care...

Large family-style restaurant in the heart of Amish country - the kind of place where buses pull up and people run into the restaurant for the local chicken and shoo fly pie. Terrific value and huge menu, if that's what you look for in a restaurant. Service is friendly and attentive. The real star is the food itself. My wife...

Great variety of entrees, sides and desserts. We surely got our money's worth!! Kids pay $ 0.75 per year of age, very reasonable.
