Great buffet and drinks. Service is good place stays full of people. Everyone looks happy. Let's you know the food is worth it

Food was really good. A little disappointed in the BBQ portion of the buffet since I searched BBQ & it came up as a BBQ buffet, but overall we found another restaurant in Florence that we will definitely visit again. Service was very good as well.

Great buffet bar with something for everyone! BBQ to fish to fried chicken. Vegetables from our Southern roots cooked to perfection.

First time visiting here. The food was really good. I enjoyed tasting old favorites like chicken bog. The fried shrimp tasted really fresh and the ambrosia salad was yummy. The wait staff and takeout staff was very friendly (aside from the front cashier) and the service was great. The restaurant decor was definitely southern and dated but it was clean and neat. I'd definitely go back when I'm in town

This Southern buffet style restaurant is located in Florence just a couple of miles from the National Cemetery. Only mention this since it was Memorial Day weekend when we visited. God bless our troops. The restaurant offered a very good variety of Southern comfort food staples. Pulled pork, catfish, chicken-n-dumplings, chicken bog, crab, fried chicken and every type of green you can imagine. I tried a little of each and everything was very tasty. The serving staff were all very nice and kept up with drinks and clearing empty plates as we refilled new ones. Check your receipt. It appears that a 20% tip is added automatically. Worth a stop for some good food.

A year later and it's definitely still 5 stars! My favorites were the calabash shrimp, fired pork chop and desserts. The dessert selection was even better than I remembered.

I enjoyed our family dinner here this evening. While visiting family in Florence, they treated me to a buffet dinner. Woodstone's provided southern hospitality and delicious buffet options. This place is very popular, so you'll want to arrive early. I enjoyed the options here. There are a lot of southern classics and seafood on the menu. My favorite items tonight were: the fried squash, stuffed yellow crab, Lima beans, fried whiting and frog legs. Yes. I said it. Frog. Legs. I also had potato salad but the potatoes were undercooked unfortunately. Dessert options were very few. I went with the strawberry short cake and peach cobbler. Too sweet and not very tasty. Make this your lunch or dinner stop while in Florence.

Six of us visited Woodstone BBQ and Seafood for Father's Day. It was my father-in-law's choice and convenient since my husband and I were able to meet my in-laws in Florence when we drove up from Charleston. Although Woodstone's website advertised a menu with seafood as well as a sandwich menu, when we got there, the all-you-can-eat buffet was the only option, likely due to Father's Day. On the heels of a pandemic, I was skeptical about a buffet, but Woodstone's offers gloves for handling the utensils and had hand sanitizer at the front of the line. The staff also brings you any sauces and condiments you need, which seems more sanitary than having them on a buffet. Most customers used the gloves while in line. As a pescatarian, I was thankful the buffet included fried shrimp, fried catfish, deviled crab, as well as many vegetables. Some vegetables are seasoned with and contain meat, but the food is in front of you so you can easily see. If you're still unsure or have concerns, just ask an employee. All seafood was deep-fried, and items weren't marked. I accidentally took a piece of fried pork thinking it was some type of fish, but thankfully figured this out before eating it. A grilled fish would've been nice, as some of the fried items were thickly breaded, but I found plenty to eat. If it can be deep-fried, I'm pretty sure Woodstone's will deep fry it. The staff work super hard keeping the buffet full of popular items. They also bring and refill your drinks and clear your plates. Bring cash for a tip, as the receipt had no line for gratuity, and you pay when you enter. I don't remember our server's name, but she was excellent and earned her tips. My favorite items were the sweet potatoes, fried zucchini, fried shrimp, and chocolate delight dessert. The dessert contains chocolate pudding, whipped topping, and pieces of chocolate chip cookies that are crunchy. The soft-serve ice cream is also popular. We all enjoyed the food, and I recommend getting there as soon as they open to avoid crowds and because all of the food will be fresh on the buffet.
