Reviews of Family Affair Restaurant and Catering (Restaurant)

Amy Wilton

This is a home cooking buffet that seems like it’s the middle of nowhere, but just south of Lawrenceburg. This is a spot Rachel Ray has recommend you stop to eat while taveling through especially for the 127 yard sale weekend. However, anytime is a good time to eat at Family Affair. It will fill your belly with yummy home cooking and you never know what famous bourbon people you might run into while eating there.

Great way to support local families by eating at this family-owned restaurant. The buffet was well stocked and food was just like home-cooked. Even the cake was homemade. Great price for the lunch buffet too.

I could not tell you how it was because I have never even heard of this place until just now. So everyone knows by me saying that that I have never in my life been there so I gave it a two star and if i ever go there I will update my review and tell you what I think

Had the Dinner buffet. It's hot, fresh, and plentiful. The banana pudding was still warm from the homemade meringue. The meatloaf was a little sweet for my liking, but still flavorful and moist. You gotta try the cat fish when available on thr buffet. The staff was friendly and available for your dining needs. I would highly recommend stopping in if ya ain't in a hurry.

Anna Milam

We visited on August 2, 2019. The food was great! The building was clean and all the employees were nice and very helpful. We will be back again.

Shirley Singleton

Awesome food..catfish strips are out of this world good.

ted hempy

Good home style cooking with a buffet and full menu. Friendly wait staff make you feel like you're dining with family. Prices are reasonable. Its in a weird, out of the way location, but if you're ever passing by it is definitely worth the stop!

Eula Milburn

Green fly on lettuce.food was dry out only had 3 different pieces of cake put in one cake pan it was all dry out & pinto beans had to much salt we will never go back years ago it was a great place to eat.

RoddoRexx

Wow, wonderful home style cooking! I sampled a little bit of everything on the buffet. Everything was good. That is something that can rarely be said. This isn't a fancy place but who cares! Your tongue gonna slap yo brains out baby!

Im.The.Savage

Paula Maples

Good food and a sweet waitress

Don Jividen

If you want great home cooking, then you should definitely stop by and see these fine people. The food is always good no matter if you have the buffet or order from the menu.

Kerry McClain

We love Family Affair. Good homecooked meals. Always have a hot buffet and you can also order off a menu to order from. The people are friendly and the food is great.

brian peyton

Real home cooked food.

Carolyn Barnes

Staff is always so pleasant, always a smile on their face. Food is always great, with a great buffet.

Samuel L

Wonderful service and friendly staff. Other than that it was a very disappointing meal. First thing we notice through the front door is how hot and muggy the air was. They said the a.c. unit was overwhelmed....then you need a better unit. People don't want to be uncomfortable while eating. Food was mediocre at best. Mushroom swiss burger was canned mushrooms and white American cheese.....grosss!!! After ordering the appetizer sampler, they came back and said they were out of mushrooms. Which means they use frozen breaded mushrooms out of a bag. Just over all disappointing....not horrible, just not what I hoped for.

Mason Tackett

They make potato salad like Mom does. Do you need anymore information?

Billie Bowers

Food was good and good place to eat

Sara Nelson

I studied the menu to find something that was not fried or red meat but the loaded grilled chicken baked potato was delicious and unique.

Matt Praria

Food was absolutely amazing!! Would definitely recommend and we will be back again, Thank you!

Sheree Ross

Great home cooking buffet. The place was clean, service was great, food fantastic.

Delynn Jones

The buffet was superb. Several choices for desert. It was down home cooking with several vegetables and fruits. The salad bar was also good and fresh tasting.

Alicia Westerfield

Very good place to eat with a family type atmosphere. Had buffet and menu service. (Husband and I both had buffet and drink; total was 27.00 excluding tip) service left a little to be expected, husband had to find server (on her phone at the cash register) and ask for refills. Not sure of the service structure but we were told to tip in a basket by the register, when I did tip cash, while the card was waiting for approval the server picked up the money and unfolded it to count it and then placed back in basket. The food quality does outweigh the unprofessional service quality.

Ben Voils

Great place to eat n great people to talk too

Roger Ewing

Slow

elizabeth

Same buffet every week and sometimes the macaroni and cheese is like glue. Fried chicken is mostly cold. Can you put some soups on the buffet. Not everyone wants to eat buffet, maybe soup and grilled cheese is all they want. Floors could use a good cleaning and so could the enclosed porch.

Frances Hardin Fanning

Great place!

Jimmy Hawkins

It has a buffet bar very nice friendly place

Deaconator22 Official

My Mom worked there for a little bit. You can get a great burger there. They also have a buffet, and the best time at the buffet? Catfish Fridays! Mmmmmm mmmmm mmmmm! I would totally recommend if you are hungry for something between Harrodsburg and Lawrenceburg, then come on over there.

Sharon Peyton

Great home cooking buffet.

Robert Dabrowski

My first experience with this place was a few years ago, and it was a great one. I drove past them today and decided to stop there for lunch (around 1:30pm), I must say I am deeply saddened at how much this place has gone down hill. I ordered mozz sticks with marina, a double cheeseburger that was supposed to be pink in the middle (waiter said they could do that) with lettuce pickle and mayo, waited roughly 15 minutes for them to initially take my order, when it came out I was not brought marina, the cheese burger had lettuce pickle and tomato, no mayo, the burger was cooked completely through to the point of the majority of it being dry. Waited another 5 - 10 minutes for them to bring me mayo and "marinara" (which ended up being just cold tomato sauce), they did not bring silverware and instead said "the silverware is over by the buffet", excuse me but I am not eating buffet and your job as my waiter is to bring me utensils to eat my food with. I waited roughly 15-20 minutes for a refill on my drink while the employees (looked like one of the owners, lady with short blonde hair) stood at the table next to me chit chatting with her friends who where dining in while I was attempting to drink my ice cubes and could not be bothered to stop her social meeting to help a customer, I ended up having to get up and ask the employees who where all sitting at a table eating, if I could get a refill... Again I am deeply saddened by this experience, and unfortunately cannot recommend anyone go here who wants a pleasant experience.

Thomas Spiller

Great staff and food to match

Darla Guerra

Great food! Great service!

James Hamilton

Ok food, very poor service. My party went with the buffet while I went al carte with a burger plate. it was twenty minutes before the waitress come back to take my order despite telling her I was ordering off the menu. 40 minutes later - after my party had finished eating and awaiting checks - the waitress brought my food out. The excused offer was they were slammed. Then how come several people who came in after me ordered off the menu, ate, and left. Even then the order was wrong as a burger plate was supposed to be burgers, fries, and slaw. As far as being slammed as reason, the majority of the "crowd" arrived way after she took my order.
