Reviews
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Tom Fletcher
We stopped in for a quick lunch and had a great experience. The waitress was cordial and the manager was wonderful. I ordered a hamburger for my wife while she was in the restroom and a chefs salad for me. When our food was delivered by the manager, I realized that I had not ordered the hamburger plate so it didn't come with fries. I mentioned that to the manager, and he said no problem. Hot fries were quickly delivered with the Cole slaw to complete the hamburger plate. The food was delicious and the desserts looked delicious even though we didn't have room for them. I highly recommend that you try this restaurant if you are in the area.
⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 — Greg Christian
Stopped in here yesterday for lunch on the way to meet for wife at her job. Got her the Calabasas chicken tenders with half and half. The gentleman at the register who i presume to be the owner was extremely friendly and helpful. It was my first time and I asked what he recommended and he gave me such great recommendations. I went with the double cheeseburger with fries. The burger was huge and the amount of fries you get is wild. I also ordered a side of okra and it was YUM! The fries could use some seasoning and my wife seemed to get just plain chicken tenders. I thought Calabasas were more crispy but maybe not. The amount of chicken you get is insane for the plate. Maybe next time I'll try the club sandwich he recommended or the philly. I do love a good philly cheesesteak!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Robert Cagle
This restaurant is great. The people are nice and take good care of you. The food is great with a large selection of different types of cuisine. Fast service and normal/ average pricing. We will return.
⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 — Debbie Shafer
Hubby thought the chicken on his sandwich was a little dry, baked potato was great, he didn't get his coleslaw slaw, but the amount of food was enough. My Ruben was delightful and the Onion Rings were plentiful but needed salt. I asked for some honey mustard dip and gobbled them down.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Yamile Paniagua A
Great restaurant! I always get the Cajun chicken sandwich and it’s always delicious! The portions are huge as well as the sandwich! The chicken is never dry and always juicy, the vegetables are always fresh, and the fries hot!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — gene w
Great meat and 3! Nice family atmosphere and wide range of food choices. Give them a try, you won't regret!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Trey Thomas III
My wife and I came here to try out and so glad we did. From the time we sat down, we were waited on immediately by super friendly servers. The atmosphere was really cool with old 50's and 60's memorabilia all over the walls and again, the service was top notch. We started off with the loaded potato soup with extra cheese which was great. But what really impressed us was the cornbread! You can tell they don't just throw things in the over and call it done, I could have made a meal of itself out of the cornbread. My wife and I got the Philly cheese steak with sweet potato fries and a side of nacho cheese. The hoagie the steak came on was amazing and the fries were crispy and delicious. We had amazing cheesecake and chocolate cake but was eaten before we took a picture. I would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting your down home southern meal!
