Not quite as good as in the past, but was overall still good. The desserts were not good tho. Peach cobbler looked bad, watery, and undercooked. Others just not good. Main courses were great and most sides good to great tho. Fried catfish still amazingly good for all you can eat

We had been looking forward to trying this restaurant for awhile, well we were gravely disappointed. Location and outside appeal are great, but once inside that changed. There seemed to be a major lack of management tonight as the younger employees were all huddled up in the back room gossiping and not working when we walked in. With it being our first time here we didn’t exactly know what the process was and as we waited to be seated since there was a sign that said just that. Then finally after making eye contact with the employees one finally said seat yourselves. Well as I explained this is our first time here she then explained we can check out the Buffett and if we don’t like what’s there we can help ourselves to a menu. She then went back to her conversations. We checked out the Buffett, it is your typical southern Buffett nothing special but we decided we would try it. So we make our plates and seat ourselves. Then we are trying to figure out how we get a drink, took the waitress over 5 minutes to realize we were there and needed drinks! The place wasn’t that busy. So we finally got our drinks, the food was mediocre at best and you could tell most of it wasn’t fresh unfortunately, maybe we should’ve ordered from the menu instead. So they we never receive a ticket so we walk up to counter to pay and she asks us for our ticket she can’t find it or anything, waitress never put it in. So finally she comes puts in our food and drinks and let me tell you when she said $20 I was shocked, not for that service and food. Probably won’t go back and definitely don’t recommend.

Helen Mathis

Normally the service be great not today maybe they where short of help the waitress never came back to table no refill on drinks nor did she bring the bill but the food was good

Charles Looney

Buffet was OK and very reasonable. Staff was courteous.

D. Howard

Excellent food. Excellent service. Enough said. You must go.

Reed Curtsinger

Food is good, But Steam bar isn't hot enough. Last visit beans were Bearly warm, mac & cheese was cold, 3 items were empty. Bread, Both desert pans, and Dressing pans were all empty. I asked the lady bringing the items out how long it would be for the dressing would be ready and I got a smash remarked (in a little bit). When she brought it out and put it on the bar, she took the empty pan an raked the dryer crusty remains from the empty Pam and piled it on to the new pan and stirred it in.

Greg Eldred

Jeff Sinclair

The food is amazing -- nothing else to say! Be sure to try the fried fish, fried green tomatoes and the peach cobbler!

Juanita Farr

Anita Parham

Good food , it can slap you in your face ( Health Wise) . Some people hog you out on the Buffet Bar . Waiting in line you get pushed out of way . Customers won't give servers space too put food on bar , they have too stayed back , until they get a chance too put food out ... Looked @ the customers plate piled high .

CW Turner

Good home cooked food. Great service and price

Valentina Fuller

My husband and I visited MIldred's this past Friday night and weren't disappointed. In fact, we are coming back this Thursday and bringing our parents. The staff was very helpful. The food/buffet was hot and fresh. The fried chicken and catfish battled for top billing on my husband's plate to the tune of A LOT. The greens, brown beans and other vegs were awesome. The cookie cake was delicious......very moist. Great Place to visit.

James Herron

Great southern home cooked feel. Good buffet selection.

Todd Hess

Southern cooking at its finest in buffet style or special order. Whether you love fried chicken or fried catfish or any other southern favorite, you can get it here at a reasonable price. The staff is very courteous and do well keeping up even while busy. If you haven't visited here, then you should plan to do so. You won't be disappointed.

Derrick Crigger

Good country cooking. Place gets a little overwhelmed with the amount of people that dine there. Food is good. Place needs a little updating.

Barbara Harris

Just depends when if they are busy if the food is good or not.

Marty Pylant

Good food good all-round service atmosphere, location will go back fo sure.peace

Joy Jenkins

Had a steak, .medium. baked potato and rice. Steak and potato were great. Rice was literally room temp. Hot food should be served hot. Asked for hot rice. Server told me that she would put it in the warmer for me because they don't have a microwave. Grateful for her honesty, however, I didn't want the same cold rice heated up. Food temp is important. Can't imagine I will be making the drive back to Mildred's. Too bad, because I wanted to like this restaurant. As we were leaving I passed by the buffet, which had already had all pans removed. The water in the hot wells was disgusting. I mean, not one days worth of gunk, but gunk built up over days, weeks,months. Those wells need to be cleaned daily. Yikes!! Eat there at your own risk. Sorry to be so brutal. But it is what it is.

Tommy Reynolds

Comfort food that is comfy. Buffet has only a few choices but the quality makes up for that and more. Fried chicken, meatloaf, ham, green beans, stuffing. Food like yo mamma wishes she could have fixed it. Maybe other stuff on other days. I'll check…

John Mahoney

Great food friendly down home atmosphere and lovely attentive staff my son and I drink allot of Tea with our meal never had to wait on a refill and it was a great price

Angela Harbin

The outside of the building doesn't look like much and you may hesitate to try this place out but the food there was delicious ! Fried chicken was the best ! Actually every thing was absolutely delicious ! Potatoes several ways,green beans seasoned to perfection, mac n cheese, chicken n dumplings, turnip greens,meat loaf, fish,with all the trimmings and a huge salad bar along with desserts. There was just too much to mention. Everything was seasoned and hot/fresh ! Definitely worth a trip if you dont live in the area. It's like sunday lunch after church..umm..yummy ! I highly recommend this place.

Josh Knalls

Great food, great prices, and great service. Great place to take the family

Lisa Toney

The food is really good. The vegetables taste like straight out of a garden specially tomatoes and cucumbers. The peach cobbler taste like my peach cobbler from scratch, the dough on top is made by them still good. Watermelon very good. I could say more but you just need to go and check it out.

David Fink

So good, I ate too much!!!

Yolandia Eubanks

Yesterday my parents and I ate at Mildred's and we were VERY disappointed. The Seafood Buffet is on Friday AND Saturday nights, however I am not sure how Mildred's can justify charging someone for a "Seafood Buffet" when you only have Catfish on the Buffet and that is the ONLY thing other than hush-puppies that remotely could be classified as "Seafood." There was NO Shrimp, Scallops, or any other type of Fish or Seafood on the Buffet. In addition, the Ice Cream Machine was not working. Even the desserts were not good. This by far was the worse food selection on ANY buffet I have seen. I will not be going back there any time soon.

shirley chambers

Wonderful staff and the food was fresh and tasted great. Highly recommend eating here, looking forward to another great meal.

Gordon Banks

A must-go buffet restaurant! Good food, good prices, good selections, and good service! I love this place! Military discount, too!

Greg Cook

Amazing food, just remember to always get the buffet.

Queen of Dixie

Virginia Adkins

Great food nice folks.

Tammy Willard

Great place! Good service!

saundra tate

Good country food nice people

Bill Edwards

Very good food reasonably priced.

Theresa McIlwain

My favorite place to eat in this entire area! The service is wonderful and the food is even better! BBQ ribs and pork chops that melt in your mouth, tender, flaky catfish, amazing cornbread to name a few. Fried chicken is wonderful, delicious country sides done to perfection. My personal piece of Nirvana is the banana pudding (this is the real deal!). Exceptional! If you haven't tried Mildred's, you are missing out!! Highly recommend!!

Nutt Dale

Went in for lunch on a Saturday, the brussel sprouts were mush, the potatoes were really runny and the pulled pork sat in so much grease it was horrible. Seems every time a Mildred's is bought they eventually go down hill and out of business.

Janet Langford

Like this place. Good food buffet style. We have water here several Sundays after church. U see the crowd and realize it's a good place to eat.

JJ Parsons

My wife's parents told us about this place and on a whim we decided to go and check it out. I honestly have to agree with what they said this is some of the best fried chicken I've had in quite some time. You will definitely get your fill of food here, the atmosphere is outstanding and the wait staff and even customers are all super friendly. If you're out in the Ardmore area I strongly recommend stopping in and checking out Mildred's!

Marcus Houston

Great southern comfort food, friendly atmosphere. Buffet all day!!

Sophie Beikes

Cute little country buffet. Their food is wonderful, and everything you could think of that would be on a southern person's plate. Yummy!

Pam Robinson

Friendly staff, good county cooking! Great porch for sittin!

Jacob Chapman

Worth the drive from Huntsville!

Austin Ball

Great buffet style restaurant.! Deffinatly will be back!

Jonathan Ayers

Worth the drive! They keep their steamer table well stocked with great southern cooking and on Saturdays their seafood/catfish are to die for. There is a bucket list item for any foodie.

Shasta Johnson

Food is great and service and servers are awesome most try it!

rhonda Livingston

Home cooking fried green tomatoes

Connie Morris

Great Buffet !! Has great fried chicken. The service is great. Good food for your money!!

Wichien Choosilp

Good foods with a good service !

CraftyLady 1999

Too much money for such a small selection. Mashed potatoes, but never any gravy. Cornbread is always too cold to melt butter. I recommend going when you can order from the menu.

Robert Allen

Great food and service. And the price was good.

Kathy Saladino

Lunch buffet was delicious. Catfish and fried chicken with all the trimmings. Dessert too. All included in the price.

Tia Wheeler

Food was good. It is a buffet meat and three style. I think I saw a menu, but cannot confirm. It was pretty busy at 2pm on Saturday. The salad bad was pretty basic.

Jeff Mills

Great buffet with verity of food. Salad bar and dessert bar are the best.

Rob G

Don't get there late in the day or the food bar may be lacking. They don't replenish the on line desert trays often. Usually a cobbler or banana pudding. If the trays were smaller, they wouldn't be so messy halfway through because patrons muck it up. Just replace more often. The salad bar is mediocre. The food is good, not overly salted but not that diverse. The staff is always friendly. Clean. Recommended.

Matt Tibbs

The food in service at this location where excellent. Easily noticeable from the road. I highly recommend the buffet.

Da Hing

Buffet style, they do have a menu to order from. Buffet food was not greasy with mix of country fixings. Waitress was very efficient, and restaurant was very clean.

Jennifer Risner

The was great and the coffe was awesome!!!

Anna Parks

Didn't live up to the hype. I went to Mildred's for the first time and I was underwhelmed. Don't misunderstand, the food was pretty good and our waitress was nice. But when a restaurant advertises that they are "one of the top 20 buffets in America" then they set a very high bar for themselves.... And for me the experience fell short. I ate there for lunch on a weekday. The tables were a little too close together. When I reached to pull out my chair the back of the chair broke off... When it comes to the food, the veggies and sides we're delicious. My chicken and dumplings we're good. But my mom's chicken breast and my grandmother's meatloaf was dry. The ice cream was delicious! For me the best parts were the sides and the ice cream.

Kenneth Vincent

The steak was as little tough. The baked potato was small. And it was served without a salad. As well as being lukewarm.

Sharon McMahan

Great food, wonderful service from fantastic staff. First time there and I have to say buffet tables clean, food prepared just right.

Sooted AA

Buffet food, homemade for sure. Very friendly and affordable

Hot-headed Trinity

One of the best places for buffet and friendly service.

Tim Stewart

Was out riding the motorcycle and passed by Mildred's. Thought we would give it a shot. So glad we did. Great place! Great food! One of the best buffets I've ever seen. Fried chicken the most like my Momma's I've ever had. My Momma is a great cook and their fried chicken is just like hers. Banana pudding is outstanding too. Everything I tried was very good. I live 60 or 70 miles away but I'll go back. Thanks Mildred's.

Rae M

Had to go to the TN border to cash in a lotto ticket. Came across this restaurant along the way and we are so glad we did! Super friendly staff. Amazing home cooked food buffet style. Fast service. Ice cream for the kiddos. Kid discount. Welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely be back!

fred smith

Great buffet and friendly service.

Daniel Young

Not up to par on their buffet foods, especially on Mother's Day. A brunch or special menu would have been in order. Very, very disappointed on this occasion. Have enjoyed better variety and tastier food here in the past.

C.J. Neill

Great food & service.

Frances Morell

Best place in Limestone county to eat.Great food.

Lisa Wascher

Food somewhat mediocre, service seemed frazzled and took 15 minutes to get my drink order even though the place wasn't even half full. They did try to be nice and asked several times if we needed anything. But it was a good price for a buffet and the food was decent just nothing special. It was late in the day so they may have been short staffed.

Ashley Snell

The food is great I only wish they would keep the food warmer.

Alex Scott

Amazing staff was super cheerful food qas excellent and the price was the best part I couldn't believe when I seen the bill how well priced it was for such great food.

Raymond Sloan

The best fried green tomatoes anywhere.

Jeffrey Williams

Its okay. Better in the past. Prices have gone up and its always the same food selection.

Elizabeth Ewing

This place is GREAT! I brought two of my young friends here for dinner on a Fri. night at about 6:30. There was a little bit of a wait, but it was well worth it! I tried the fish, mashed potatoes, roll and Mac & Cheese. It was all FANTASTIC! Though I don’t recall what I paid, it was very reasonably priced! I will return! Thank you!

Bobby Jordan

Friendly Staff Best Buffet around

Sherrol Saxon

Good food good service

Rebecca Vigil

The fish was over cooked the green beans should have been cooked longer. And the banana pudding was a bit watery.

larry cantrell

Great food.great service.great staff.great prices

Deanna Cooper

I love Mildreds...Atmosphere is great. I wish they had more selections and less salt in the chicken.!

Tanya Gipson

Today was my first time at Mildred's. I got a to-go plate. The fish is delicious and the Chicken n Dumplings are to die for

Shawker 71 .

Every day there are different items on the buffet. Ordering off the menu is quite reasonable. Some of the best fried chicken around. If you leave hungry it is your fault.

Zachary Goshert

Good food and service.

Christine Allen

If you like home cooked country style food

Judy Lackey

Really enjoyed this restaurant. Advise anyone to go there. Food was great and so was the price!!

Charles Wildman

Good country food and pleasant service. They have a buffet but my mother and I ordered from their menu.

Susan Hall

Great Food and nice place

Michael Turner

Excellent service and delicious fried catfish, both filets and whole catfish. It is a buffet style restaurant. Very clean and a great atmosphere.

Garrett

My waitress, Marina, was an absolute gem. I came right in the middle of lunch rush, and she didn't skip a beat. Sweet and attentive southern hospitality at it's finest. Food was typical southern buffet fare, no complaints. The fried green tomatoes and the rotisserie chicken and egg salad were the highlights for me. Sad that I live a million miles away, but if I ever find myself down this way again, I'll definitely stop by.

Rick Easterly

EXCELLENT ! Nice, clean, modern environment. Very friendly staff & patrons. Excellent prices. Buffet delicious. Clean restrooms. Must travel a few miles off I-65, exit #1, through Ardmore to locate them. We drove some 70 miles each way from Franklin, TN @ I-65, mile marker 65 to exit 1 to eat here. Worth the trip ! Will return.

Margaret Hardaway

Very good food and good service waitress was Jennifer. She did a great Job.

Chris Dutton

One of my favorite restaurants. Cozy log cabin atmosphere, friendly professional staff and a mouth watering buffet. Never fails to satisfy. Always busy but worth any wait.

Beverly Lang

Great food selections and service.

Lorie Hardin

The food was great and the service was also great we well be going back loved it

Constance Gillon

I have been here MANY times, but will NOT be back! The food is good. The servers are friendly. Sadly, the management stinks. My hubby and I went to Mildred's for dinner tonight. We were told to sit anywhere we wanted. The air in the main dining room was out (again), so we headed to the new section (where the air usually works). We were told that section was closed, so we left to go eat at Cassie's (where the air conditioning works). I called to talk to the manager. I told him what happened, and he said, "It is a maintenance issue that we have been dealing with for a while." I asked why the ONLY section with air conditioning was closed, and he said, "Well, if you don't want to eat here, that's fine " I will NOT be back. The food is good, but not good enough to sit in the heat....or be verbally mistreated by the manager.

Robert Klier

Good food. Very friendly service.

Jim Morton

That's the best food I've ever eaten. Thanks to the Ardmore PD.

Monicka Lemon

Lovely little gem. Good food and great customer service

Doug Davidson

Really GREAT food and service has been great also! Catfish on Thursday and Friday is worth going for!!! My wife loves the fried green tomatoes, but you have to get there early due to them being a big favorite!

Jerome Jones

Good food great service

Anthony Berry

Warm friendly atmosphere and the food was delicious! Fried chicken was perfect, the mac n cheese was to die for, the broccoli casserole...forget about it...yummm! The only problem I had was no gravy for the mashed potatoes. That is just a necessity.

Sarona Kohler

Down home food very southern.

Janice Garland

Since under new ownership and management. Staffing has been minimal. Even though the waiter staff has been short, they have been friendly. When mildred owned this facility, the bar was always piping hot, plentiful, no matter when you happened to stop by. We visit less frequently because food quality and selection is not the same.

DEBRA LYNN SMITH

Buffet with delicious food and many choices!! Friendly and helpful employees!!

Nick Myers

Good food, good service and friendly staff

Carol Ricketts

Great food for a good price.

Cynthia Singleton

The food was excellent and the employees were very hospitable

Art Espinoza

Simply outstanding. Food was excellent and the price, you can't beat $8.58 for all you can eat southern cooked food. Fried fish and chicken a one of the best I ever eaten. Place was full. Very friendly staff.

HAZELL EYEZZ

It was clean the food was good staff had good customer service nice atmosphere

jtwilburn .

Awesome food, service and price!!!

Rachel Jones

Fantastic family friendly restraunt. Good southern style dishes that fill you up. The business hours are a little short but for a small town home grown restraunt it makes more sense. The meatloaf is so good and the banana pudding tastes homemade (if it isn't they fooled me).

Sandra Keil

Great Lunch! Chicken, and dressing, mashed potatoes, & sweet potato casserole....all really good!

Prasanth Prasad

What hospitality. We felt right at home. The food was very tasty as well. Anyone driving down to Alabama from Nashville, this would be a very good place for lunch

Dave Jackman

Yummy southern comfort food buffet. Really busy but they seemed to keep up with the food pretty well. I'm not sure anything was all that special or unique here, but it was a yummy filling dinner.

Tammy Troupe

Buffet style. Always a large selection. Good food. Friendly staff. Clean.

joseph burns

Great southern comfort food at a low price.

Dana Guy

This an outstanding country cookin buffet. On Sundays it's only buffet and they had fried chicken, meatloaf, ham, pintos, corn, green beans, Mac n cheese, dressing, cornbread, rolls, banana puddin, peach, blackberry cobbler, German chocolate cake, salad bar, cornbread dressing, broccoli casserole, soft serve ice cream. We didn't get to see their menu. They have beautiful rocking chairs on the porch if u have to wait or if u can get to your car cause you're so full. We will be back. It was very good food.
