How was it different? How did it work?
People don't order individual meals. You order a meal for the whole table which is then brought out to the whole table to share. They provide unlimited refills of everything. So the whole table has to get together to decide what entree and sides they want. They don't let you take any leftovers home either. Everyone gets butter rolls and a dessert.
If you go to their site you can see the menu but your choices are a 2, 3, or 4 entree meal with 4 sides.
Paul Deen's Family Kitchen
They don't let you take leftovers home? They gonna tackle me to the ground if I brought my own box?
How are there leftovers if there are no set portion sizes?
No, but they could ban you I guess
Most "all you can eat" places don't let you take home leftovers. The wat staff will judge how many portions to bring out and if you need more they'll bring it out in order to prevent too much food waste. It worked out really well and there was a lot of food.
Sounds like Maggiano's except Maggiano's is Italian food, and when I've been there they not only allow you to take home leftovers, the wait staff encourages you to ask for more when you're done so you have some to take home.
That's a lot like a traditional Chinese restaurant, except, yknow, Paula deen stuff
