Reviews For Butter Churn Restaurant

I love this place so much , I wanted to come for my anniversary meal , there are steakhouses etc. In Corpus Christi where I live but frankly my husband makes better, and I like feeling like my southern grandmother is in the kitchen cooking for me. The meatloaf was outstanding , the hush puppies had just enough spice , and as always I love the banana pudding and the cobbler , as well as the chocolate fluff. And the salad bar is always fresh. In this day and age of all the restaurants making excuses , giving you smaller portions ,and food that can be not as good as pre pandemic , and higher prices. This place can be counted on for great food , happy servers , and good prices and plenty of food. Go there .

Down home cooking. There are enough choices on the buffett. If you don't like it, there are a lot more to taste. From fish to ribs, awesome salad bar, ice cream, hot apple cobbler, and peach as well. My tea was kept full, and I was often asked if I needed anything else, including a tea to go.

Found this gem while traveling for work. I didn't expect much but we were hungry. It was amazing! The food was fresh and affordable and had great southern flavor! Set up in a buffet style, amazing staff, cozy atmosphere! Will definately make it a point to stop by again!

I was recommended this restaurant by multiple people so I decided to try it. It didn't disappoint. There was a variety of veggies. The food was seasoned welln not too bland and not salty. The decor was very cute inside. The staff was nice. I'll definitely go back on a different day and try a different menu

The food is outstanding, as always. Waitstaff is quick and friendly, as always. This place never fails to serve wonderful and varied food. The salad buffet is huge, the main dish buffet has so many different selections it’s difficult to decide. The vegetable selections were particularly good. Greens, cabbage, stewed tomatoes. Yummy! The rolls were good as was the dessert selection. I didn’t save room tho! I would consider this a bucket list type of place. Real, homemade southern food.

We meet our kids from Corpus Christi for dinner ever so often. We come from up north. It's a 45-minute drive for all of us and worth every mile. It's all of our favorite buffet, and Saturday enchiladas are great! The staff is attentative and friendly. The food is fresh and delicious. They have a different menu every day with tons of options. We have a few more different days to try out the selections on the menu. The salad bar is top-notch! The atmosphere is rustic and welcoming. There is plenty of seating. This is a clean restaurant. You definitely won't leave hungry, and the price is right! We're so glad we stumbled on to this place!

Came here after a long day of business meetings from out of town in Austin. It was pouring rain, so the chicken noodle and wild rice soup hit the spot perfectly The customer service was excellent, and everyone was so nice Our waitress stayed on top of things and consistently checked on us, asking if we needed anything and made sure to top off our beverage. When we sat down to eat, we felt like we came over to our grandma's house, and she made us an amazing home cooked meal The food was delicious, the salad bar was really good and I would come here when passing through back to Austin, again!
