Family Affair

Definitely a local place, not meant for travelers or folks passing through! We weren't really greeted, just walked to a table and sort of left standing there! She asked what we wanted to drink then left! Hubby asked if there was a menu or only the buffet before she ran away for our waters and she said she'd bring him a menu. Seemed like we were supposed to know what we were doing!We both opted for the buffet which is very small but exactly what I wanted! There was no salad bar, just a premixed salad that was getting droopy after only being open an hour, it was good. The protein choices were pork tenderloin or salmon croquettes. The salmon was everything I wanted it to be and more!! The tenderloin was a little tough but the fatty pieces were wonderful! Mashed potatoes, gravy, several veggies, corn cakes and rolls, it was definitely a meal! Great value for lunch!Three stars for the food, zero for the service, or should I say lack thereof! Very unfriendly and unapproachable staff for such a small town spot. Even when hubby went to pay it was a bark of "What'd you have?" without even looking at him. Left with an odd, what-just-happened, twilight sort of feeling!

A staple in the community and surrounding area for many years. We had not been to the restaurant for some time but their buffet was a great way to suit our group and easy way for some that were running a little late to eat right away. The fried chicken and sides were all good. The price was very reasonable as well.

I cannot stress enough how bad this was. Awful service, very limited food options, and the atmosphere was like waiting for the rapture on your grandmother's couch, eating stewed greens until you have been judged. All without background radio, of course, just the waitstaff talking to each other and avoiding the customers.

We wanted fish tonight and we hadn't been here recently for the fried catfish buffet. Family Affair serves tasty Southern dishes and I have enjoyed their cooking since they catered employee meals for my employer in the 1990's!Tonight everything was tasty and we enjoyed what we ate, but we were disappointed with the side dishes since neither of us like stewed tomatoes or cooked greens. The buffet is different every night, for example Wednesday is meatloaf and spaghetti, Thursday is ribs, and Sunday has turkey, ham and includes a drink and dessert for $11.We will definitely return to try the buffet on another day, and someday we may even order from the menu!

The food was cold. I mean it had a chill to it as if it had been sored in a refrigerator before being placed in the steam table pans at the buffet. The staff was even colder. When I asked for a water refill I got tap water with no ice and the water was room temperature. No one smiles or is in a hurry. Menus are limited so you have to wait until someone is finished ordering in order to get one. Once the food is on the table, a long wait if you order off menu, no one comes back to the table to check on you. When we were ready to leave we had to aske to be checked out as all the staff was having a gab fest at a corner table and no one offered to help us. These folk could learn a lot from the folks at The Butter Dish restaurant down in Pikeville, Tn. In Tennessee they smile, offer great service, hot food and real southern hospitality. In the future I will be driving the extra distance to Tennessee rather than go to Harrodsburg, Ky.

Have you ever had a dining experience that is unbelievable- not in a good way - that was us today. We arrived at 5:20pm on a Saturday night. It took ten minutes to get our drinks. I had to ask for a menu (I assume they think everyone is going to eat the buffet- nothing healthy on it). When I asked for a burger with no bun, the waitress panicked and left to get an order pad. When I asked what dressings I could have for the side salad, she ran off again and a new girl came to take my order. Once my salad finally came my husband had to go in search of silverware and ketchup for my burger. The best part is that it rained while we were there and the floor flooded. People were picking up their feet. I appreciate a small business but this experience was depressing.

Great family atmosphere good home cooking they even cater I've gone my whole life and will bring my kids :)

Friday night catfish buffet is great. Sides are really good, too, but the fish is to die for.

The food is fantastic, I have been looking for a place with this kind of food and service and I finally found it and the staff is so friendly and go out of their way to accommodate your every need

Small, family owned business, great prices. I had one of the best cheeseburgers I've ever had!! Great tots and onion rings, too. Inside is a bit tired and dated.
