    What can you say that hadn't already been said? A must for BBQ in west Kentucky. But the sides and desserts rank as high as the BBQ!! Try the peanut butter pie.

    Everything is clean, the staff friendly and the food is good. Friday Night=Seafood with Fried Oysters. Omg! I’m in heaven.

    The spiced apples were the best thing on the buffet. The corn muffins and macaroni were good also. This is a different type of BBQ from Texas, Kansas City, or anywhere else I’ve been.

    Excellent at getting a large group seated quickly! The buffet looked good but I wouldn't have eaten enough to do it justice. The ham was good just a bit salty for my tastes.

    Amazing BBQ, but be sure to save room for the Buttermilk or Pecan pie!

    Buffet is a popular choice and seems to be worth the price. Turkey sandwich, however, is sliced turkey on two wheat breads. Really simple, but the BBQ sauce makes it great.

    Very over priced. It's a tourist trap. Don't get me wrong, it's a good generalization of Owensboro bar-b-que, but it's not worth the price by a long shot. Locals don't eat here. We eat at Old Hickory.

    The buffet is what people go for. It's ridiculously crowded on Sunday's so try going on a Thursday for lunch. Same food, less people.

    A bowl of burgoo with cornbread muffins is a satisfying alternative to the overabundant buffet.

    Moonlite used to be the best but they have become too big for their own good and now its so-so and way overpriced.
