We really appreciate that. And thank you so much for your nice comment.

You are very welcome. Thank you so much for watching. We are glad that you enjoy our reviews, and the detail we try to provide. It was a very enjoyable experience.

You're very welcome! Thanks for watching!

Thanks so much for that! We do try to cover everything, and we are glad to know you appreciate that. Thank you for watching!

Thanks so much for watching! Glad you had an enjoyable experience there, also.

Thanks for watching! Yes, the artwork alone, was definitely worth it.

We will definitely be going camping another time or two this summer. So glad you enjoyed the video. God bless!

Thank you! Happy 4th of july, and God bless!

Yes, we really enjoyed it. It would be hard to watch that and not get hungry. Thank you for watching!

Yes, the fried shrimp was excellent, as well. It's great, that you live so close. Thank you for the welcome, and we really did enjoy our time in the area.

Yes, lots of good things to choose from. Thank you so much for watching. So glad you enjoyed the video.

Thank you so much!

You're very welcome!

Yes, we really enjoyed this place. Hope y'all are well.

Yes, it is definitely a must try. If you do get to go there, we'd love to know how your experience there was.

Yes, we did need a long nap after that. After we woke up, we went to the Sight and Sound Theater and were blessed with free tickets. It was a great day.

LOL! That's how I felt afterwards. And I'm glad viewers caught the subtle A-1 thing.

Thank y'all so much. Yes, it was kind of overwhelming. We enjoyed everything that we tried. I thought the fried chicken was excellent. I also thought the pot roast was very good and tender. She really liked the Harvard beets and the shrimp.

I did not try the Birch Root Beer there, because I was so in love with the Hawaiian Blue juice drink. But I did get a Birch Root Beer at an Amish Market we stopped at afterwards, and it was very good. I have never seen so much food in my life. Shawnasi loved the Shoofly pie, and I thought it was pretty good. I can't say it was my personal favorite, but I think it was her favorite desert. I did enjoy the brown butter noodles, as well as the fried chicken, beef brisket, garlic parmesan wings, fried shrimp, and well, I'd better stop there. I also loved the raspberry cheesecake. Thank y'all for watching!

Thanks so much! Yes, there was lots to choose from.

Yes, it was amazing.

You might be surprised at the price. It was only $44 and change for my wife and I, but we did go at lunch. But you can spend more than that in a lot of places now, even when it's not all you can eat. You can certainly get your money's worth there.

@@NCMemoryMakersyep i get ya, very true, it looks really nice, lots to choose from. guess good thing to do and try things you would not normally order. thanks for the review, good stuff

@robwinemiller9712 If you do get up there and try it, let us know how you like it. They're famous for their pot roast, and I can see why. Very good, tender, and flavorful.

@@NCMemoryMakers for sure will do that if we get there sometime soon, thanks

It is huge, but is a must-see, when in that area.

Yes, that was very subtle, but I knew some people would catch it..... lol.

It is very good.

It was big enough to be one, that's for sure. Great place!

Thanks for watching!

Glad your experiences there have been like ours was. We think it is amazing, too!

@@NCMemoryMakers I really want to go back there sometime

Can't blame them a bit. That's a beautiful area, and Shady Maple is very good. Not sure what part of Maryland they live in, but we had lunch in Baltimore on our way back home yesterday.

They live on the eastern shore in a little town called Millington. I have another sister down in Salisbury.

We did not visit the grocery store. That would have been nice to see. Our meal for both of us, was just over $44. I do think supper would have been a little bit more, but you can see what a vast selection we had to choose from, even at lunch. And being all you can eat, it's hard not to like.

I hope you do get to go. It's a fun experience.

That is correct. Can't blame you. If I were there on my birthday, I'd definitely go, too.

It's huge, isn't it? Lots of great selections. God bless, and thanks for watching.

Friday, the 21st...2 days ago. Thanks for watching!

Depends on if you go for lunch or supper. We went for lunch, and for the two of us, it was just over $44. It may even depend on what day you go, I'm not sure. I'm sure that's all on their website.

Yes, they were with us, but mostly stayed either in the motel room or at our friend's house in the air conditioning. They were not with us at Shady Maple.

Yes, biggest I've ever seen.

@@NCMemoryMakers if you two have not got back home yet stay safe out there

@dpmart3275 Thank you so much. We are on the road now, and still about 2 hours from home

You are certainly entitled to your opinion. You are not entitled to insinuate that we are being dishonest. There is literally no reason for us not to tell the truth. We are not on their payroll, and we don't owe them anything. We gave our opinion of it exactly as it was. And the scenario you described is not one that we witnessed. We saw literally no one throwing food, the place was very clean, and our cups did not take like soap. To put it bluntly, you're exaggerating. But you hate it when people don't tell the truth. You imply we are not being honest, and one of the reasons you give is because people there were throwing food? Do you think the people who were throwing food when you were there, are there every day? Did it even occur to you that they might not have been there the day we were there, and that nobody was actually throwing food? You call us dishonest over that? If it were as bad as you say, I doubt tour buses would come there from hundreds of miles away. Not to mention all of the other comments on this very video, from people who have been there and loved it. You're kind of in the minority here. By the way, let me just remind you that when you say "don't waste your time", this is actually our channel and our review. We make the recommendations here. You're free to review the place on your own channel.

​@@NCMemoryMakers I agree with you so much in this comment. It's a very clean place & never had a bad experience there.

@@CJTravel1 I really don't understand people like her. Except that she's obviously very unhappy, and gets her "joy" from trolling and criticizing. Very sad. Her comments were completely disingenuous. The way you can know if someone is being honest in their experience, is that even when they have to mention something bad, they will also tell you what was good. When they are complaining about everything, as she is, then you know they are just angry and have an axe to grind. Because NOBODY has THAT many bad things happen to them in one visit. It just isn't credible. Maybe 1, or perhaps 2...but no way EVERYTHING is bad. I mean, people throwing food, the cups tasting like soap, everything out of a can, etc? Not even sure what her point was. At any rate, I do not mind someone disagreeing with our review, and even saying their experience wasn't good. But if she wants to give reviews and advice as to whether or not to try it, she can make those recommendations on her own channel. You notice she just disappeared after that one comment? Anyway, thank you so much for your reply. I am glad you experiences there were as good as ours was. If there was anything about this place that was impressive, it was how clean they keep it, considering how large it is. We thought everything we had was good. The very idea that she was calling our honesty and integrity into question, over HER "experience", warranted the response from us that she got. Thanks so much for watching! God bless!

@@NCMemoryMakers I agree with you

@@NCMemoryMakers And you are welcome 😊 I did notice nothing else was said from her after the only comment. She must be scared to write anything else

Well, that's what you do at a buffet...Eat.

The lines moved quickly, and it was definitely worth it. The food was great, and we'd do it again, if in the area.

The lines move rather quickly actually and the workers are quite friendly at least the ones who sit you. The food is .. buffet food. I wouldn’t say it’s any better than like local fast food restaurants (I think some of the food are even better at the fast food joints than what’s offered here I.e. the fried chicken). But it is something fun to experience overall. The hype is that it’s the largest buffet. But I think really that just means size of the building because I’ve seen more an array of offerings in other buffets in California and LV. It’s worth a visit at least once I think though because it is worth the money. We went on their mother’s day event this year and it was crowded! But we had a decent time.

@@FloraNovax3 Thank you for sharing. I agree with you, that the lines moved rather quickly, considering the length of them. I would probably differ with you on the food, as compared to fast food. I thought the fried chicken was very good...juicy, and full of flavor. There are some excellent fast food fried chicken places, as well. But I would certainly put this right up there. Also, the pot roast was some of the best I've had anywhere. I would agree that it is worth the money. We paid just over $44 for the both of us, and for all-you-can-eat, I don't think that can be beat.

Definitely worth it. They move people quickly and there is a lot of seating available.

It sure is. Glad you both enjoyed it, as well.
