    I agree with another poster below that said the food taste like Golden Corral, I totally agree with that. Nothing special but not bad. The things that has caused us never to go back is number one, the price is way to high for what you get, and number two when you order seconds they bring you back a very small portion one at a time, ( you want more chicken they bring you 2 pieces for a party of 4) we had a party of 4 and we all got one tablespoon of each side and one piece of chicken which was crazy for 4 grown adults, and it took them at least 25 minutes each time they brought anything back out and it made us feel very uncomfortable. So we basically ate a Kentucky Fried Chicken meal for well over 100 bucks ++. None of us have a desire to go back.

    Dora Charles was a long time cook who designed the recipes of Paula Deen's restaurant.. She learned her skills from her mother and grandmother. She is no longer employed by Dean and now works as a teacher and a cookbook author. Her book " A Real Southern Cook" is not about commercialism or making money ..its about quality ingredients prepared carefully.

    I haven’t been there but the total was $59 for two people all you can eat. The food looked decent and according to the posters it was good. I think $30 each for all you can eat is a good price in today’s world. You can easily spend $20 - $25 at McDonalds for one person now.

Have a local budget place that is way better and cheaper plus I can get a cocktail. And bring one of my dogs and sit outside and enjoy a beautiful day. Everything has gone sky high.

    Overpriced and we knew that when we went but we decided to go anyway because it was “Paula Dean’s”. I was not only disappointed but I was angry. The food was standard restaurant food that you could get at a chain like Golden Corral. In fact Golden Corral has a better variety and to me their food is better. She is trading on her name and not giving people anything special.

I have six dogs and only take the little one and my ex has a medium sized dog and we take them with us. I split the rest up as they are all very well trained and they stay and guard our respective homes. He is up in Morro Bay on the Central Coast and I am in Santa Clarita.

    I have eaten at that same Paula Deens restaurant at Pigeon Forge and thought the food was really good. I am a southern cook and my food is seasoned different, but that doesnt take away from the food I ate there. Like all cooking styles it is individual taste and does not necessarily mean the food isnt good.

Cracker Barrell is not all you can eat and the food is definately out of a can, the biscuits dry as a bone in the desert. The service is stiff and the staff like robots. I would try Paula's place.

    Pretty much everyone I know who have been to both Pioneer Woman restaurant in Pawhuska AND several Paula Deen restaurants all say same. Ree’s store, and especially the excellent quality of the restaurant outshine Paula Deen’s in every way. Unfortunately, Deen operations seem to be about profit not quality Southern cooking. It is way too expensive for the poor quality. I guess as it’s in tourist areas they get enough business with one timers. If most are not repeat customers, it’s not a problem for them.

    Took my parents there while on vacation but will not go back again. The chicken was good but the pork chops, turnip greens and black eyed peas were all spicy and not eatable. Our bill for 3 was over $90 dollars. I really don’t understand why restaurants have to make the food spicy.

    We ate at Paula Deen’s a few years ago and it was a really bad experience. The food was typical canned or frozen cafeteria quality. One thing I distinctly remember was the macaroni and cheese was dried out to the point you absolutely couldn’t find a single bite that was palatable. When we asked the waitress to replace it her response was “I’ll be happy to but it is all like that”! The portions were small and the prices were outrageous. Even if someone told us that they had improved I wouldn’t risk wasting my money.

      On this visit, we had not been in a couple of years and we were wondering if it was going to be any good or not. I think a lot of times these things seem to be hit and miss depending on how busy they are and how their staffing is going. Unfortunately, that makes some of these less than dependable places to plan to eat.

      On this visit, it had been several years before we had eaten here. We were wondering if it was going to be good or not. Unfortunately, I think a lot of that hinges on how busy it is here and how they’re staffing is doing. Sadly that makes these places less than dependable sometimes to eat at.

      Corporate takes over and dumbs down the food

    I am much older than you folks and my appetite has diminished. Food looks good. I have visited your area several times, last time was in 2001. The area where you live has changed drastically over the last 40 years.

    7:13 the waitress picked up a pen from the floor & put it on the table. No thanks. The food did look good though.

      If that’s the worst thing I touched with germs on it that day I think I’m doing pretty good! 😂

    We had them cater our son's wedding at Tybee Island... it was just average, I could have done better for way cheaper.

    Paula's recipe on youtube for gooey butter cake is very good. That one you had was very thin. I make one for my daughter for her birthday every year. The difference between most recipes and Paula.s is she puts melted butter in the filling also. I made her recipe this year and was one of the best I had made.

    I agree that it’s over priced and I only tried it once, and that was because it was Paula Deen, and people saying that it was good. The food was only ok to me, I’ve had much better at other places. When I dine at a place that says “Southern Home Cooked Food or Soulfood” I expect it to be better or as good as I can cook myself. Paula Deen was not. The Mac and cheese in the video looked like just that macaroni with some cheese, I like a baked macaroni and cheese with eggs, cheese and milk along with some seasonings. It’s been years ago since I went to her restaurant in Savannah, but it was a one and done for me.

    It sounds as if y'all really liked it but the comments here say a different story. My sister went to the restaurant in Savannah and wasn't happy. I'm a fan of Paula's and I have made many of her recipes and still do. I give her credit for being an entrepreneur, knowing her brand and capitalizing on it. As far as the quality, I can't say one way or the other, I've not been to her restaurants nor have i purchased any of her products. (Ok, and I'm not here to hate on Miss Paula, I did read her Air Fryer recipe book and truth be told, I found it to be seemingly thrown together and rather sloppy. I'm a subscriber to her youtube channel and, she doesn't practice what she claims in her aforementioned book. Mainly, she said, in the book that she has different oil misters with different flavors that she uses. In her shows, she uses propellant added cooking sprays like Pam. I've never seen her use a mister, just saying.)
    It seems as if, from what I can gather, she has restaurants, food, jewelry, furniture, kitchen appliances, cookbooks, and gifts/tchotchkes. There are no doubt sub categories and I'd wager she may have clothing? Please someone, update me on the full range of what's included in the Paula Deen empire.

    My meal tasted like a. Salt lick. Someone must have dropped the salt shaker in the food.😮

      I don’t use much salt so I definitely noticed that.

    Paula Deen’s air fryer was crap, burnt out after 4 mos and never answered emails to get refund. I wouldn’t give her another penny by eating at her restaurant.
