The Tomatoes Country Buffet: Southern Buffet in Kennesaw, GA

Good lunch spot. Everything was hot and fresh on the hot bar. The staff was very friendly too!

A big buffet with all the southern classics blasting 90s country music I could not have had a better experience. This is not gourmet food this is a freaking country buffet with delicious fried green tomato's so if you want to relive your Shoney's or Ryan's days this is the place

For less than $13 per person for a dinner buffet, drinks included, Tomatoes can't be beat. All you can eat standard buffet style setup with minimal decorations inside. Standouts include the fried chicken, jambalaya, chicken livers, salmon croquette, pulled pork (meat alone or sandwich), mac and cheese, cobbler, mini country fried steaks with gravy, and sweet potatoes. They also had potato soup, baked or bbq chicken, fried green tomatoes, and other desserts but they weren't as good as the others. There is a salad bar too but don't bother. Their best items are in fried or flavorful category and you know what you're in for before coming here.

Good was hot and good for a buffet. The dessert looked questionable so we didn't try it. The server was nice and attentive!

For the record I'm not a huge fan of buffets. They get the job done e of feeding a family on the cheap, but I prefer a more controlled dinner. That said, this place is pretty darn good. Pros: Clean Friendly service Ample parking Inexpensive Convenient to interstate Huge food selection Cons: No one has been able to completely and accurately emulate my grandmother's fried green tomatoes, but this place comes close. Highlights: Fried okra Green beans Fried green tomatoes Pulled pork Fruit cobbler If you are craving "southern style" cooking, this ok e can scratch the itch on the cheap.

Pleasantly surprised by this spot! I have walked past this restaurant more times than I would like to admit. Mainly because I am not a fan of buffets. However, I decided to try something new and check out this spot. When you walk in you are greeted by the cashier. We ordered two buffets and it cost about $30. This does include a drink of choice. After being seated and drink orders placed you proceed to the buffet. Man oh man- they have something for everyone. There is a salad section, several different meat options, a number of sides, to includes starches and vegetables, a few bread options and of course dessert! I started off trying the salad section. I love the chicken salad and ha it a few different times. After trying the salad section I went over to the hot bar. I honestly enjoyed everything with the exception of the mac and cheese. I do have to admit that I am a tough critic when it comes to mac and cheese because my dad does it the best! Dessert was just ok. I think I may have tried a chocolate cake that was decent. However, I would not bother with too many of the desserts Overall- a great place for good home style cooked food. Price is also not bad. You can't get a full meal for $15 too many places these days.

If you enjoy Southern Home Cooking, this is a place to try! Great variety of hot proteins and vegetables including Fried and Baked Chicken, Meatloaf, Fried Chicken Liver and more! Soup, Salad Bar, and Dessert Bar included but I'd skip the desserts as they weren't good other than the fruit. So Many choices at a very reasonable price. I especially liked the Mac n Cheese and baked biscuits. Definitely worth the try; we will be back!
