Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Ate at May's Restaurant for 1st time. Found out breakfast buffet ends at 9:45....then they switch buffet over to lunch. We were there around 10:30. Only a few patrons when we arrived...that changed very quickly as lunch crowd poured in! Buffet was nicely stocked. Servers were very friendly and attentive. All you can eat buffet with tea and a dessert for $12. What a deal!!!"
"I stopped in for the $13.00 lunch buffet, which includes iced tea. This is hometown southern cooking at its best! Everything I tasted was delicious. The server was attentive and very friendly. I can't wait to return!"
"This place captures true hometown Southern cooking in the best way. Every dish I tried was full of comforting flavor plus made with care. The server provided warm, attentive service that added to the experience. I am already looking forward to my next visit."
"Was taking a different route to Florida, happened upon this place. Wanting some good country food. Got exactly what I wanted. The chicken and dumplings are fire !!!"
"The staff here are always polite, friendly and attentative to patrons needs. The food is good home cooked country! Fried chicken, chicken and dumplings, sweet potatoes, turnip greens....yummy!"
"If you like home cooked Southern food, this is your place. May’s is one of those hidden gems and well worth a visit. There is a buffet with all things Southern - fried chicken, sweet potatoes, peas, fried okra, chicken fried steak, butter beans, salads, iced tea, cornbread, and the best egg custard pie I’ve ever eaten. Of course, there are many more choices, and it’s all delicious. Drive up around 10:30, and you’ll find the place is already packed with locals— and that’s always a sure sign that you’re in for a treat. It’s nothing fancy but May’s is a great place to eat."
"Best country lunch buffet in town!! Gotta get there early they sell out fast."
"Everything was GREAT. I haven't ate buffet style in years. The food and food selection was outstanding. I was passing thru on my way home but just may take the almost 3 hour drive back to eat there again. Sorry no photos this time."
