The Deep South Salad at Leonard’s is said to be the original barbecue salad , but the barbecue dinner is a classic, with pork shoulder piled high on a platter with beans, slaw , and wedge fries . Read more

One of the better buffet style places around. The pulled pork is dry and disappointing. The sausage is plain. The catfish and wings are really good. The chicken fried steak is tasty but gooey.

My first real job was busing tables here. Leonard's Sweet (Barbeque ) Sauce is a unique Memphis flavor and you can't go wrong with an all you can eat buffet ! Ala carte items also available.

Allen Arcade

The butter rolls are the BEST thing served at this place. Order something and then eat up the rolls. Like Corky's rolls but softer and tastier.

George Sanderson

The buffet is awesome as well as the deserts . Ribs on Tuesday and Thursday.

Addison Ursery

Everything on the buffet is great and the staff is friendly

Gavin Anderson

The buffet is great, and absolutely the best catfish in town (and this coming from someone that doesn't like catfish )!

Jim Haire

It's been a long tome since I've been here and it's a shame. BBQ is excellent and the slaw is the best. It won't be this long till my next visit.

Buffet is great but do not come on saturday because for some idiotic reason there is no buffet on Saturday. The menu is dismal on Saturday.

Lena Gordon

Get here early, or the pulled pork will be dry.

Have the buffet and don't forget the fridge of pastries and the ice cream maker.

Sandi Tracy

Stephen ODaniel

No more dinner buffet except on Friday and Saturday, boo

Ann McCormick

Reminds me of high school

Matthew Carroll

We tried a slab and a sandwich . The BBQ is dry and tasteless, the sauce too sweet. The slaw is runny. Nobody beats Blues City on Beale.

Ursula Thomas

The buffet shuts down at 2 pm!
