Ellen's

"I had high expectations after reading the amazing reviews, but I was disappointed by the food, which didn't justify the 45-minute drive. The shrimp and grits were just okay in terms of flavor, while the pimento cheese had a good taste. The Ella’s punch drink resembled a mimosa with a slightly stronger flavor. However our service was amazing but I won’t be returning again."

"It was worth the wait. Great breakfast options, both American, Mexican and Tex Mex. The portions are very well served, the waitress was very friendly and the price is right. The pork chop and the chili were great. Very much recommended!"

"Warm, friendly atmosphere, off the beaten path, recommended to us by a chef at a different restaurant. Breakfast and lunch are available. We had a short wait for a late breakfast. Good strong coffee and a special coffee. Enjoyed Joe's balls Sampler. The crab ones were our favorite, and Ellen's should bottle the sauce that accompanied them, excellent. Pancakes were fluffy and not sweet, and I loved the soft, whipped butter. French toast was cooked the way we like it. Crisp on the outside, moist in. Biscuits and gravy were good. I would have liked more sausage. Home fries are good. We wanted the pancake pot pie, but they were out, we were told they sell out fast. We will definitely try again if we're ever in the area."

"We just loved Ellen's. The customer service was spectacular, and our server, Tracye, was simply the best! She made our dining experience incredibly enjoyable and we enjoyed our conversations with her so much. She was awesome and truly added to our wonderful experience at Ellen's. I started with the Buffalo French Fries and was addicted with the first bite. They are so good!! I couldn't stop eating them. They are my new favorite appetizer. You must order some! I also ordered the fried shrimp with Mac & Cheese and coleslaw. It was divine! The shrimp was cooked perfectly, and the mac and cheese was full of creamy goodness. The coleslaw offered a nice tang and crunchy bite. My husband ordered the Big Ol' Biscuits & Gravy and raved about every bite. And our daughter ordered the Chilaquiles and enjoyed her meal as well. I highly recommend a visit to Ellen's. The customer service is phenomenal, the establishment is very clean, and the food is divine. The only cons I can bring to one's attention is that it is incredibly busy, so expect a long wait, and parking can be difficult to find, so expect a walk to the restaurant. You have to find street parking with a paid meter or find a paid parking lot. BUT it's SO WORTH IT!"

"Our meal was phenomenal. I got the Chicken Fried Steak and I was in culinary heaven. The service was fast, and all the food looked amazing. The restaurant had a good homey atmosphere. I would 100% reccomend if you want breakfast or lunch. If im ever in the area again I will definitely pay another visit"
