Sweet Sue’s Restaurant & Buffet

Sooooooooooooo good were from lufkin. And visited tyler this place is a must stop. sooooooooooooo yummy. Flavors are amazing. The staff is amazing and polite. Our server we fell in love with her.

To me the breakfast buffet could be improved upon. The biscuits were a little hard and the grits had no seasoning whatsoever. The scrambled eggs were ok but I will not be rushing back to their buffet.

Experienced the lunch buffet, which was really really delicious. All of the food we tried tasted just like good olé home cooking. I really enjoyed the salad bar, which had a few dozen topping options, and the chicken fried steak with white gravy. The buttermilk pie was the bomb.
I can’t wait to go back and try the breakfast and dinner options. This is one of the very few buffets that I would definitely recommend to others.
I forgot to mention, the service was wonderful! Everyone was smiling and very friendly.

In today for lunch and was good. Had meatloaf, black eye beans, mashed potatoes, some chicken. Great service. All good here.

We were here last weekend. I always worry about how we will be treated with 5 children. The waitress was very friendly and very patient with us. Our kids are well behaved, but sometimes they have trouble deciding what they want. As for the food, the only complaint I have is the fries. They have an odd, bland taste to them. The rest of the buffet was really good. We were all filled up when we left. The price was reasonable for all you can eat dinner. We would have spent the same at a drive through. We will definitely return when we are in town again. Also, I like eating somewhere a manager make their presence known and stays.

Have been there several times in the past few months, and it has gotten 100% better! In the past, it was hit and miss, because it was so inconsistent, and you never knew what days it would be good, and what days it would be crap. They have 2 new cooks, and that probably explains the quality of the food. It was so good last night that I’m here again tonight. LOL. Went there today, March 26, and was told the 2 new cooks, didn’t last. I wondered why the food, or a facsilime of, SUCKED again!

The only decent things on the breakfast buffet are the fruit and the fried eggs. Anything fried in oil is terrible: potatoes, cinnamon toast sticks, they all taste extremely bitter, as if the fry oil hasn’t been changed in WAY too long. The buffet is focused on meat and grease. How did they get the scrambled eggs so greasy?
The service was great, though, and I was very glad they had fruit and cottage cheese. So it wasn’t impossible to make healthy choices.

Sweet sue buffet is the place to go let me tell u we started out at cheddars it was packed so I Google sweet sue an looked over reviews an some was not good so I took a chance an i tell u I took the best chance I ever made everything was great fish is awesome potaos was great enchiladas off the chain an the best chicken fried steak I ever tasted (an the best customer service our waitstress was awesome) so if u ever in tyler tx stop by sweet sue

Did not do it for me at allllllll. Food was bland and just flat out not great. I tried a little of almost everything hoping something would peak my pallet and absolutely nothing did… Besides maybe the rolls. And if I remember correctly it was kinda pricey I thought.

Turnip greens very gritty flat out dirty. Cabbage was good though. Food over all not the right temperature.

Best kitchen cooked breakfast out there. Didn’t have the buffet. But I can believe that the freshness of the eggs, buttered grilled white toast, and hash browns wouldn’t be as awesome in a buffet.

The place was filthy. Everything at the salad bar was room temp. Yuck. The only reason why this place gets 2 stars instead of 1 is because I loaded up on green beans (can’t f that up) and the fried chicken. Everything else was terrible. For the price you pay I expected at least a little more! *shivers* Never again…

Best place ever! It is very delicious and the staff there is amazing! Great to go for breakfast, lunch, or dinner! Would recommend to anyone. Great homestyle cooking!

I had tried over and over to like this place. The first time I went was for breakfast and their was hardly any food on the buffett and the «fresh made pancakes» tasted rubbery. I went for dinner a few months later and while the spread on the buffett looked great, looks can be decieving. I had to inform the waitress on more than one occasion that the food tasted cold. I thought by saying this they would replace the entire tray. No they microwaved my plate of food!!! The staff does a great job so kudos to them, but that place has so much more potential especially since their isnt a Golden Corral around to take their business.

The Best thing here was the staff! I must say they really have a great staff who loves to work here, but the food not so good. We had two little ones with us and so we choose the buffet. Everything we just OKAY (tasted like pre cooked stuff with no flavor) Almost like a TV Dinner. Needless to say the little ones would not eat anything, other than the rolls! Honestly i cannot think of one thing that tasted good. Sad thing is i ate here many many years ago with my father and it was really good. I can honestly say we will not be back! The only four stars here is the STAFF!

Have noticed this place and finally decided to try it this trip. First off the waitress and service was wonderful. She was friendly and quick. I got the buffet. The salad bar is small, but all the items were fresh and plentiful. Only Ranch dressing available, but I like it so OK. The entrée buffet was very good. CFS was tender with thin crispy breading. Good assortment of vegetables and other meats. The BBQ ribs and fried chicken livers were wonderful. The gravy had a skin on top, but creamy below. Unlimited trips to buffet. I did not notice the dessert area until I had filled up. They had 2 or 3 types of pies in a chill chest and 3 or 4 cobblers on a warm bar. PLUS soft ice cream machine. Wish I had seen it earlier. Well, there is always my next visit.
Atmosphere is just OK. Vinyl booths and vinyl covered chairs at tables.
