Good: cheddar biscuit , tomato dill soup , 1/2 chicken salad sandwich & side salad deal. Real Blue cheese dressing !! Too greasy: hoecake , fried green tomatoes , crab soup , pork BBQ , & battered chips .
The Sunday buffet is pretty good, I preferred the sides, the collard greens and Lima beans were very good. The meal comes with a small dessert . Friendly and attentive staff .
I don't know what it is about it but the creamed corn was delicious. Loved the collard greens , Mac n cheese , and the fried fish ! Pick up Paula Deen's hot sauce for $5 bucks.
The Lady & Sons restaurant has a varied buffet including sweet cooked cabbage , mac & cheese , buttery mashed potatoes , rice , pulled pork & chops, fried chicken , and some yummy desserts . We recommend.????
Had the buffet , and it was amazing. Excellent choices, wide variety. Wonderful service as well . Definitely want to go back!
Everything! It's super quaint with buffet-like service, e.g., you get your own food and your server simply adds it to your check. Good fried chicken and peach cobbler !
Calorie-laden... but still good once in awhile. When in Savannah, this place is a must. This is the only place where I actually enjoy the grits :) Loved the desserts too (yes each and every one of em)
Southern cooked food at its best!! Had the shrimp stuffed w/ crab meat & wrapped in bacon w/ grits & asparagus on the side! Awesome!!!
The fried chicken is amazing! My favorite item was the cornbread with actual corn pieces in it! It was like cake ! The actual butter cake was delicious also!
The fried chicken was delicious, and our server was friendly and attentive. Overall great experience! I would come back and bring more people!
Surprisingly good we had the lunch buffet not that expensive and great customer service. The cornbread to die for!
If you're looking for authentic southern food , this is the place to visit. Just make sure you have a reservation before stopping by, it can get pretty packed.
Sunday's is buffet style ! $18 per person plus drinks! It was great food! I had two plates! The service was really good.
Because y'all have made us so popular and to ensure that everyone has an equal opportunity to eat with us, we cannot accept reservations for parties smaller than ten persons most days of the year.
Great service and awesome food!! The fried chicken and collard greens were awesome! also recommend the banana pudding and gooey butter cake ! I wish I lived closer to Savannah, best food ever!!
Can't go wrong with southern cooking . Tremendous all-you-can-eat family style meals with great private event space .
Food was delicious as expected. Place was packed so we ate at the 3rd floor bar . Catfish , cheese grits & slaw .
The buffet was solid. Fried chicken was tasty and above par. Greens, Mac & Cheese and other choices were also good. Staff was courteous and friendly .
Oh my God!!!!!!! I can see how Paula Deen is a great cook!! This is buffet style but everything on the menu is delicious!! Do not miss!
Great variety of food, reasonable price for buffet . MAKE RESERVATIONS.....wait time is long but food is worth it.
The food is good, but the butter cake might just be the best dessert I've ever had! Not too expensive , either. Very friendly service .
Well if you Dont like grandmas cooking..you want like this place...its like you came over after church and she handed you a huge plate And says set down honey and eat...it so good
Absolutely amazing! I would recommend if it's your first time there, go with the Buffett ! Outstanding Paula!!
Very affordable and delicious dinner buffet ! The pancake and cheddar garlic biscuit they serve is amazing too! Check in Early in the day for evening reservations ! they don't do phone reservations !
The fact that anybody has said anything negative about the buffet is astounding to me. I am extremely satisfied, and very impressed. Alcoholic Arnold Palmer is a must.
One of the best places I've ever eaten at, I don't believe It's over priced for what you get like some have said my salad waa $10 & its the biggest salad Ive ever seen & SO good! Staff r amazing
Usually very busy. Food is good. Hoe cakes are yummy. Best value is the buffet . Don't forget to visit the gift shop .
Get here early and make your reservation ahead of time. Take a walk around the area and you'll see amazing parks and historic buildings and statues .
The most amazing food! The people are great and the food is delicious! You have to go to Paula Deen's "The Lady and Sons," while in Savannah!
The sangria is amazing and so are the garlic cheese biscuits !!! Also try a peach mint julep if you like bourbon but watch out its stong!
We had a formal in the basement and they were so hospitable and kind to us. The food and staff was great!
While I might have grown up consuming such foods and very seldom do buffets , for a reason I might add, if you are new to the south, give it a whirl. Down home cookin ' but calorie laden.
One suggestion and one suggestion only: GET THE BUFFET . It's the best way to get a taste of everything. You might want to go for a walk afterwards.
The buffet is a great introduction to soul food ... nice selection and well prepared (and all you can eat .)
Buffet and deserts were great! We made a reservation for 4 a few weeks prior and did not have to wait long to be seated.

One and done. I’ll never go here again. Everything is overrated and the way that the staff is set up . . . Very much “Get Out”
I had fried shrimp with the jelly roll fries (fried potatoes ). Nothing was over cookeded, it was perfect!!!!! I give 5his place a 10+.
The food was amazing, definitely will be back
Y'all are haters! Paula can cook! It's like a good ol' Southern Thanksgiving with fried chicken instead of turkey ! Sweet potatoes are to die for!
Be sure to make a reservation . We leaned the hard way that's it's first come first serve for walk ins but most make a reservation . Wasn't too happy about but we will make reservations next time.
The buffet was wonderful! Especially the fried chicken , sweet potato 's and corn casserole .
Tastes about like cheap golden corral food. The atmosphere is fun and if you love Paula deen they sell lots of her nick knacks.
Paula Deen fans and those just looking for a good southern meal can come to The Lady and Sons for a wide variety of delicious menu options!
Shrimp and grits were delicious and very filling!
The buffet is your best bet. Lots of different foods and all you can eat . Get the collard greens and make sure they give you pepper vinegar. Mmmmmmmm!
The service is absolutely exceptional. 5-Stars there. As far as the food goes, the only "standout" buffet items I found were the BBQ Baked Beans & the Pulled pork . $17.99 for the rest was a bit much.
Being your appetite!!! Portions are not small by any stretch of the imagination. Chicken pot pie is unusual but delicious! I couldn't finish it.
Get the sweet tea ! It is the best I have EVER had!!
No reservations needed. It's a glorified dennys. Eat at vics on the river , and the olde pink house when staying in Savannah.
