Great Eastern-style BBQ! Has some of the best slaw i have ever had. The sweet potato pie is the BEST in have ever had. Buffet inside, take out window, and drive through! Good service at all!

We had a great experience! Had to wait about 10 minutes for our server, but she was continually busy and was very kind and attentive. I ordered the pastry dinner “chicken & dumplings”, cabbage and green beans. Husband got fried chicken and sides from the buffet. My food arrived just after he sat down from making his plate. Food was piping hot and favorably seasoned. Added a tiny bit of salt to the dumplings and pepper to everything (standard for me). I appreciated that no sugar was added to the entree or sides, as sometimes you will find with “home cooking” southern restaurants - and I’m a southern girl who loves home cooking! The hush puppies were also yummy (and not sweet). Gardiner’s was just a short drive (less than 5 miles from I-95) and well worth it! The dining area was functional, and not fancy, but clean and well kept. Bathrooms had the same high standards. We would definitely visit again and strongly recommend! If you’re looking for fancy or high-brow, this is not for you. If you want comfort food with tasty vegetables, this is your place!
