This restaurant in "the middle of nowhere" may not look like much when you drive by, but I PROMISE you will be surprised. Don's serves THE BEST fried chicken I have ever had, and I've had fried chicken in about all 50 states. I grew up in the area and our family would go to Don's after church on Sunday and we would alllllll eat as much as we could. The mashed potatoes and gravy are spectacular and the stuffing is unbelievably delicious. 10/10 would recommend stopping at Don's if you ever get the chance!

The chicken was pretty good. I would have used excellent if it were crust, but realize that is difficult to do on a buffet without heat lamps. Server was really sweet and attentive. Dining are was clean and tidy.

WOW, I am so glad I stopped in for lunch. This is by far the best buffet I have ever tried. I was worried when I pulled in that it was too crowded with a lot of vehicles in the lot, but the restaurant is so big there was many empty tables. The waitress was very nice and helpful. The buffet was hot and well stocked. The fried chicken was excellent, the chicken was brined making it juicy and flavorful. The breading was crunchy and tasty. The desserts were great, bread pudding with homemade caramel was . I can't wait to return and I recommend it to everyone.

We were in town on business in Moberly and everyone kept telling us about Don's chicken.......So, we had to venture out to find this place.We are from vegas...all the fancy crappy food you hear about........We have never had any fried chicken better then at Don's. It was just plain great! All the sides were superb as well! We returned again on Friday because Kim (who was as great as the chicken) our waitress told us about the catfish addition to the Buffett. She is a great asset to your company! Way above the service you get in Vegas for 10x the price!Everyone was super..........but Kim was super good!We will be back in the near future on business and we look forward to Don's being one of our first stops!

If you looking for a home style Buffet, fried chicken, mashed potatoes, corn, salad, great place to eat! Very busy so don't be in a rush, but it's worth it!

The BEST food I've had in MO. Clean and well maintained buffet, salad bar with many options as well as a great dessert selection. I've been visiting this area for over 30 years and this was the best dinner I've had by far. Great food, great service, and a nice cozy dining area.

Don's has some of the best home style food I've ever had at a restaurant. It's always crowded on Sunday but it's worth it. The food is great, the service is great, the sweet tea is great. The baby carrots and the ham are must-try items as well as the white gravy. But there really isn't anything that isn't good.

Made me stop making fried chicken and mashed potatoes at home, as theirs is just as great and I can skip the hassle. Service is always friendly. Definitely a down-home establishment, don't expect "fine dining", expect a great Midwestern family-style meal, without all the hassle of making it yourself.Highly recommend fish night (Fridays), both for the fried fish and the blackberry cobbler.
