"Absolutely the best southern home cooked food in the mid south! They have the best vegetables and entrees. I eat here regularly, and this is the first place I bring visitors. Everything is good here and reasonably priced. The best fried green tomatoes you can get - anywhere! And the best fried chicken fingers! The folks are wonderful here too! Worth the drive I promise!"

"A great local place with a friendly staff. The place is casual and southern sides change daily. Menu has a good variety of options. Many fried but was still good eats. Portion sizes are pretty large and looking at some other people's plates some are worthy of a takeout box. Can't ask for a more relaxed place to get a good bite of food. Have to again recognize the staff for their friendly nature. Would be great to see them change out the lighting to make the place brighter and more welcoming."

"Such a cool place it exceeded all my expectations. The food was great. The service very nice and prompt. Reasonable prices. Such a great atmosphere. I was surprised at how easy it was to find as well. Lots of vegetarian options. Also generous portions. I had the catfish sandwich it was amazing!"

"Wow, such a different dining experience. This truly is a fun place to go out to eat with friends. This restaurant has cornered the market on a unique dining experience of home cooked food. Think about it, who goes out for home cooking when you can just go home to cook? The answer, people who come here. Such a warm and friendly atmosphere, with daily special menus written on dry erase boards, sodas served in mason jars, and staff that will make you feel at home. Two of the items that we ordered, they were out of. And to me, I'm all good with that. Being in the restraunt business for over 25 years, I understand quality control and fresh food ordering. The place was packed, and that too was cool, the more the merrier right? Freshly relocated from the Left Coast, I found myself looking at a menu full of items I had never seen on a menu. Fried chicken liver, gizzards, green tomatoes, squash, you name it, they had it, and it was fried. It was almost like being at the food court at the county fair. To me, I'm not much into fried food, so I really didn't click with the food. Everything I ordered was new to me. Fried chicken gizzards (delicious but chewier than a Goodyear), fried green tomatoes, fried squash, and fried jalapeno hush puppies. All served with an icy cold Dr. Pepper in a mason jar. Everything tasted good, but once again, I'm not into fried food. Why 4 stars, although I'm not a fan of the style of food, it was still prepared tasty and everything else was great. Would I come back here again? Not by myself, but definitely with a group of friends, as this place is as I said before, a fun place to go to. Who knows, maybe my taste buds will change...."

"When you have that craving for fish on Friday and your tired of going to the same ole place. This is where you want to go. Well worth the drive from the big city. Great food and a down home atmosphere. Just don’t order so much so you’ll not be able to have desert. All homemade deserts. Wonderful."
