Drove an hour just to eat here. We got the buffet. Steaks were fantastic. We'll cooked but not over cooked. Tender and juicy and seasoned such that steak sauce was not necessary.

Came on "Backyard BBQ" Monday!
Hubby had the buffet & got Spaghetti & the Salad Bar.
It was amazing!
We both wobbled out feeling full & neither of us can complain about that.

1st time at a Shoney's. Honestly wasn't expecting much, it was just a stop on our road trip to eat. Food was good, breaded fish was excellent. Loved the buffet and left absolutely stuffed. The waitress was awesome. Shr self described as a "Coke-a-Cola" lady that felt sluggish due to a lack of caffeine, but I've got to say she was great. Even offered to-go refills in travel cups which were great for the long hours of driving we had ahead of us. Definitely stopping by here again on next year's trip.

Tasty food, super accommodating staff to one of our party with disabilities, sweet greeting from the manager, the hot water under the hot foods and the ice water under the cold foods was constantly being replenished on the buffet table, generous portions for those of us ordering from the menu. Super experience.
