Excellent, small family restaurant great food, country, cooking, friendly staff known locally as grandma‘s kitchen. You must come and eat under new management.
OMG. This was the best Country Buffet we've ever had. Everything was made from the heart. The cooked cabbage, mixed greens, sweet potatoes and green beans were so good. The chicken livers were perfectly fried and seasoned. The baked chicken fell off the bones. And the cheese Biscuits were ridiculously yummy. The desserts were crazy good. Honestly, I moaned through every bite Total foodgasm. The gal that greeted us and got our drinks was pleasant and kind. We get a mani/pedi once a month in Lumberton so we will make Finn Oliver's our monthly lunch place!
My husband and I had the most wonderful experience in this family owned restaurant. The food was delicious and authentic. Everything tasted great. We were warmly welcomed since the moment we got in and our server Michelle was super friendly and attentive. She made sure we were well taken care and gave us a 5 star service. We highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to taste authentic food and feel very special. Thank you for made our trip so memorable! Leona
Finn Oliver’s is now under new management with a new work crew. I have been in a walk through with Bob (the co-owner) through the entire restaurant. It’s nice and clean, well stocked and organized. Food is well prepared and presented hot and flavorful country buffet style for the customers enjoyment. Kitchen staff is trained to follow food prep guidelines for food safety. Dining room is very clean and comfortable with friendly staff. Have a meal with Finn Olivers for a great dining experience!
It was our first time there. It was so delicious! I ate peas, fried chicken, hot peach cobbler, macaroni and cheese, and banana pudding. It was all cooked just right. It's definitely better than Paula Deen's at the beach. My husband says he can't believe we waited so long to eat there. We'll be back soon!
The food was good with a good variety. The staff was very friendly and efficient. It's a shame that the community doesn't support local businesses but has no problem going to chain fast food places.
Lovely staff, good food, and most importantly they were considerate to my father who had bypass surgery (90% of his stomach was removed) so they dropped his cost. That means so much too us and it made him feel good.Thank you
