Crab legs are easy to peel and the royal red are mmm mm good !! Not to mention the pineapple ice cream !! Well worth the drive from Panama city every time !!

  Food was excellent. Shrimp and grits and shrimp were fantastic. Scott was our server and it was the best service we have had in PC!

  There’s a good variety of food, however it needs work & overall it’s overpriced . 13+ $59 w/ crab & $39 w/crab for kids under 13. Basic loose Mac & cheese. The jambalaya was runny & the gumbo wasn’t giving what a solid gumbo should. Good size salad bar & vanilla/pineapple ice cream was good. The steak was well seasoned. The crab legs were fully stocked & served to you. That was our first and last time going.

  I am the son of Benjamin Stephen harckis. Me and my diverse family (as my dad Ben married his cousin Jacob Rykee). I know Jacob may sound like a guy but he’s a girl (he’s confused) (last week he was dog) (you can trust me I’m half binary). Myself, Kolton, Ear, and Kelvin are children of our parents. They took us to this wonderful establishment to eat Buffett. We ate over 100 crab legs all together 🤯🤭. All the food was wonderful and really made me question my life because I have only eaten grits before. In addition to all my other words, I would like to add this: the pineapple and vanilla ice cream was to die for. Don’t forget the brownies. My uncle J loved the shrimp and grits. And he even told the chef it was great. The picture is my uncle J. He is a very big Teektoocker for being an Elvis impersonated. He doesn’t know how to drink water. Epilepsy!!!!!!🫣🫣🤭🤗🤗🤗🤩🤩🤩🤩 Anyways, great establishment, sayonara my fellow aliens. Remember none of this is real. Your dreaming. Wake up. Wake up. Wake up.

  Service was wonderful..our server was attentive, friendly, and did an amazing job. Unfortunately, the food did not match the price. The selection was limited, and several items lacked flavor. The spaghetti and mac and cheese were especially disappointing, with very little taste. For the cost, I expected much better quality and variety. My child only had two plates and dessert, and it came out to $20, which didn’t feel like a good value based on what was offered. Overall, while the service was excellent, I wouldn’t return for the food. You may get better value elsewhere. The Golden Corral is a lot more selection and cost you a lot less.
