In the past, we’ve told you about some great buffets, such as Mama Hamil’s and the Old Country Store. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to all-you-can-eat restaurants in Mississippi. Mouthwatering buffets can be found all over the state. To be more specific, there’s one in Hattiesburg that’s practically overflowing with southern classics. Take a look:
This is Movie Star Restaurant. It’s located on Old Highway 11 in Hattiesburg.
A great place for a hearty meal, the restaurant features a "tastebud tingling" buffet that’s loaded with an authentic southern fare, including "the best fried chicken" in town.
The expansive spread is available every weekday as well as on Sunday. On weekdays, the buffet features southern classics, like fried chicken, green beans, rice and gravy, mashed potatoes, and cornbread.
Stop by for the Sunday buffet, and you’ll be treated to the same items found on the weekday buffet, plus meatloaf, roast, ham, smoked chicken, corn, English peas, lima beans, potato salad, and much more.
With authentically southern recipes, it’s no surprise that Movie Star Restaurant’s buffet is constantly being included in the best buffet rankings for Mississippi.
But it’s not just the classic fare that’ll make you feel at home. You’re sure to be nice and comfy in the laidback dining room. And if that doesn’t do it, there’s always the extremely hospitable staff.
