We were staying at Pennyrile state park and decided to eat at the Clifty Creek. We were given a menu when we checked in . You place your order by phone from your room and they call you will your order is ready. I can’t tell you how good the food was you will just have to try it yourself. I got the club sandwich with ham, mayo, lettuce, tomato, pickle , bacon and american cheese it was $9 and worth it. My husband got the fried catfish with hushpuppies and your choice of 2 sides for $11. I would highly recommend this restaurant. We picked it up and they included everything we would need including sauces.

Sunday lunch buffet was great! Large salad bar, lots of choices, Brussels sprouts, catfish, hush puppies, macaroni and cheese, pasta salad, lasagna and desserts. A dish I loved had ham, turkey, bacon with cheese on toast topped with a cheese/ hollandaise type sauce and baked. Forgot the name of it, but we don’t have that dish “up north”! Went back for seconds of that dish! Yum.

The food here used to be amazing and very friendly. NOT ANYMORE! I ordered catfish (which were pretty good) but they put super burnt hush puppies in the box. Then I had breakfast and the sausage was burnt.

First off, the restaurant is so cute and the view of the lake while dining is great. Took at least 5 minutes for server to come to our table and there was maybe 4 other tables in the restaurant so they weren’t busy. Our server seemed a little confused as she didn’t get a couple things we ordered correct but she was very nice and made things right so I’m ok with that. I ordered the all you can eat catfish with a side salad and onion rings for $11. It came with hushpuppies, they were homemade and delicious. Catfish was good and hot. Side salad was good too. Onion rings weren’t that great. Meal was priced reasonably. My son ordered the kids chicken strips and fries. He really liked the chicken strips he didn’t eat the fries cause he doesn’t like fries. They do not have a huge selection of side items to choose from to substitute. That would probably be my only suggestion for improvement at this restaurant. Offer more side item choices such as applesauce, chips, fruit cups, mac & cheese etc… more kid friendly sides.
