Reviews for Shoney's in Gretna, LA
Restaurant was clean, but not much atmosphere. Food line was fair, with most breakfast items. Food not as hot as expected, like... most buffets. Price was not comparable to other breakfast places, I guess because of buffet. But was overpriced for 2 people.Food good. Read more
Visited for the first time in years on a Saturday morning and chose the breakfast buffet. There was a good crowd with a wait... after 10AM. Food quality was decent with a standard array of options. Building is slightly run down and buffet price has goneup to $13.99 for adults. Read more
We should have known as soon as we saw that the doors were open that's something was wrong. The AC wasn't working, so it was... overly warm and sticky during our stay. The salad/fruit bar is not what it used to be, very limited. They don't stay on topthe trays when it comes to replenishing them. My son had gotten red beans and rice from the hot bar and the problem was thatthe beans were dry there wasn't enough liquid and even a waitress commented on it. I began to unwrap my silverware and noticedthat the utensils were caked with dry food. I was asked by shoney's to please give them a second chance and this was theirsecond chance. The first time we went was bad, the second time was even worse, there won't be a third time. And it's a shamebecause we used to go to shoney's all the time at least five times a week for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Read more
Our server was great, kept my coffee filled but didn't bother us too much. I didn't get her name which was my bad. It was Sunday... church rush so it was just my friend and I and seating was easy. I had the all star breakfast and it was yummy. I got extra eggsand sausage. My tea was strong which I liked. Besides it being a little loud, which made conversation a little hard, it waspleasant. The parking lot is a little wonky but if everyone else actually parked straight, there wouldn't have been anyproblems. All in all it was really nice. Read more
Waitress is Awesome and the food cheers me up. Update: Breakfast bar was constantly being refreshed. Being one of the last... Shoney's around, I feel we as a community should really support this lone standout. Best breakfast around and all you caneat!! Read more
Good to see this Shoney's is still around. I enjoy eating here. The waitress here is always super friendly. The food on the... buffet is good. For my biscuit, I like my options ... Sausage gravy, white gravy, cheese, butter, jelly, or plain (and syrupalways end up on the biscuit). I saw a lady fill her plate with bacon, and then even more bacon...she knew what she likes. Thatis the beauty of the Shoney's buffet Read more
It has been forever since I've been to Shoney's. I service it was great.... it's just a little different when you have to wait... in line and let them serve you instead of you serving yourself. However the experience was pleasant and the food wassatisfying...... give them a try. The food is still the same. Good then and good now Read more
The wait staff was great. The breakfast was good. Will definitely eat breakfast there again.
