The decorations are cool. It has its own unique vibe. There’s a ton of all you can eat soul food. The place is big, so it handles a huge crowd well. I really enjoyed the food and experience.

One of the best buffets in Hattiesburg. Get there early fills up quick.

The food was amazing. Best chicken fried steak ever. Cabbage, Mac and cheese, green beans and fried chicken were top notch. This is by far the best buffet I’ve ever had. I will definitely be back anytime I come to town.

This is a buffet only restaurant filled with regulars. Took me a minute to see the sign that says seat yourself. Within 30 seconds of finding a table, a very friendly waitress took our drink order and invited us to fill our plates. The food was hot, and plentiful with lots of options for vegetables and meats. The only downside, for me, was the lack of seasoning of the vegetables. I really liked the family atmosphere where everyone was friendly and had a smile on their face.

If you’re looking for buffet style southern cuisine this is the place. Food was good (couldn’t post video). There was a variety of options.

Food was decent. The cabbage was great, green beans and greens were a bit on the salty side. cheesy potatoes were good. fried chicken was dry though and the porkchop definitely needed the gravy. Dessert was good. Our server was great but it is a buffet place. Atmosphere is a bit kitschy but also somewhat fitting

Large dining area, excellent service, unique decor and ambiance, and delicious food. Five of us ate lunch here and our total was $64 before tip, which is a bit pricey, but we didn’t leave hungry. They even have a dessert bar with brownies, banana pudding, apple cobbler, blueberry cobbler, and blue bell ice cream. Couple that with their awesome fried okra, and you have a winner.

Food is delicious and all staff is very friendly and helpful. The baked chicken breast strips were very juicy and the squash was perfection.

Very good food. Great staff. Cool place to eat. The place was an old lingerie Factory called Movie Star. When it closed up, they moved in and left the Movie Star name on it. Because everyone knew where the Movie Star Factory was.
