The atmosphere of this restaurant is relaxed and familiar. Situated in a former Shoney’s, the building itself is nothing fancy. It’s the food that really puts this place on the map.

The country buffet is the crown jewel of Hometown Grill. You can pile up your plate with as much homemade fried chicken as your heart desires. The only dish that rivals this iconic Southern Fried Chicken is perhaps the Southern Fried Catfish.

As you can imagine, it’s easy to eat your fill when you sign up for the buffet. If you can, be sure to pace yourself so you can try as many of the decadent dishes as possible. There’s an additional side buffet featuring seafood that you’ll love to sample.
