“We were driving to columbus when we saw the smoke and decided that we would stop on our way back home. Was soooo worth the stop. The gentleman who prepared our food was so nice as well as the lady who check us out. But the food... 11/10. The ribs were some of the best ribs that I have had in a while, the mac and cheese fantasic, and the collard greens were delicious. I hope to go back very soon to try their other meals!”
“The pizza stands on its on because of the fresh vegetables. I have been blown away. Today will mark my 4th pick up visit. I love to support local, even more so this spot!!!”
“Saturday my husband and I were visiting family and looking for a place for lunch. The place we were originally going to was closed. I am not a huge breakfast eater, and unfortunately this place only serves breakfast on Saturday. I opted for a BLT. however, no fries, no tater tots or anything that wasn't breakfast. The sandwich was ok. The employees were very nice. My husband and I like supporting businesses that support veterans (husband is one), and public safety (I worked in the public safety arena as well as my dad was a police officer). We hope to go back and try something else on the menu....that isn't breakfast....lol”
“My honey and I come from Alabama for this Authentic Food PA!!!Kid-friendliness: Family owned and operated.. the owners and staff engage with the customers like family”
“This hidden restaurant is such a delight. I live in Phenix City, and I was looking for some crawfish and this establishment came up near me in the city of Smith Station, Al. I arrived at the place to be told they didnt have crawfish until the weekend, but they did have a lot of other seafood. I got the Shrimp boil and Cajun seafood rice. Both were great. I didn't care for the sausage but everything else was very desirable. I returned a second time and I got the neck bone boil. Be aware I got the large and this will feed a small family and it's so good. Now for my meal today. I ordered the rideye steak medium well. The temperature was perfect and seasoned very well. For my sides, i ordered Mac and Cheese. The M&C is great very creamy and has a massive amount of cheese. Yes I am a cheese fan so I loved it. My Second side was mashed potatoes with extra gravy. It was good but not great. Now let's talk about the cooks. They are super friendly and very well spoken. Just know all food is made fresh so I love it. So if you don't have time, just come when you have the time. This restaurant is a must eat at if you are in Phenix City, Smith Station, Al or Columbus, GA. It's great soul food and america cuisine. Please plan a visit and support this business.”
“Consistently good food and service plus it’s always clean! A great local business to support. Great portion sizes with cash prices (to avoid credit card fee) and you don’t even have to fight traffic because it’s right here in our backyard of Smiths Station!”
“First time there and I loved the food. Chips and salsa were great and I had a Loaded Chimichanga. Yummy! They were very crowded so we chose to sit outside to shorten the wait. It got very chilly before we finished but we had a blast. Will definitely go again.”
“Best place to eat this side of Atlanta. Food seasoned perfect. Staff is friendly, a real hidden gem in the middle of Smith Station. This is definitely our new go to spot every time we are in town in Phenix City.”
“If it's the one in Smiths Station Alabama it is really clean and great service....tonight we did app to order and my food was gross ? don't know who was working normally I haven't had an issue but tonight was a ?Vegetarian options: SeveralWheelchair accessibility: Yes they do but there front door is difficult to open”
“This chesters is great. I visited on a Sunday after noon, around 2 pm, and Jessi P. Went out of her way to get me precisely what I wanted. Even though it wasn't quite on the menu. I really like the sweet pepper sauce. I asked if I could get the sweet pepper sauce on the big chicken strip, instead of the little chicken bites, she made it happen. She offered to toss some strips in sauce, I asked if I could just have some sauce in a cup. Which she did for me. Hope that doesn't get her in trouble. Thanks Jessi P. For Makin it happen.”
“The food here is amazing! And so is the service. Reservations are not required, but recommended. It takes approximately 40 minutes for them to make your meal. And it is so worth it! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“the food is always good my waiter Walter was excellent.. I'm just not happy paying $2.95 for a lemonade, because I asked for water with lemon. next time tell me 2 slices of lemon cost that much cause I wouldn't dare .. especially when I carry my own lemon packs just Incase.”
“These are the best tamales I've had. There is a very small dining room to have them freshly steamed or they also sell them frozen, and they reheat wonderfully at home. Their sauces are excellent. The owner and staff are super nice.”
“Cafe 431 is a hidden gem well worth finding. When you walk in you can seat yourself and the service is impeccable. We went in for breakfast and was served quite expeditiously. The ambience reminds me of an old fashioned diner with down home charm. The food is very good with biscuits to die for. Will I be back? I went back 3 days later and plan to go back again. This will definitely be my breakfast spot in Phenix City. I give 431 Cafe 2 THUMBS UP!!! I will post pics the next time I'm there.”
“This was a very pleasant experience. Great menu. Good service. Super flavorful and tasty food. My only complaint was the salad, pretty much completely raw onions, not a fan. But otherwise, I’d definitely go back. Wanted dessert but a was so very very full. Highly recommended!!”
“The best meal I've had anywhere! Easily even better than the fine dining places I've been to Atlanta. The pork chop is perfection; the desserts are divine. You can smell the good time you're in for before you get through the door. Steaks so tender they fall right off the bone. Come hungry, and bring someone you love. This place is truly a spiritual experience.”
“It was a very classy place to eat at I would recommend it highly and I would definitely return the food was excellent as well as the service. Mary who was in training was excellent as well as Jasmine . I would definitely return. I'm sure as it becomes more knowledgeable it will be more difficult to get in. As we had reservations and the location was relatively new. This review is for the Midland location . The only thing is they need to have more lower table tops.”
“Stopped by Columbus's Best Donuts today. I got one of the best apple fritters I've ever had. Cute little spot with great customer service. I will be back soon.”
“we've been 3 times in 3 weeks. it's definitely my new favorite spot in columbus. the coffee is wonderful, food is delicious and a great staff. 100% recommend giving them a shot.”
“We had a wonderful meal tonight and Malloy was an excellent server. Very knowledgeable about the history of the mill itself and made sure everything was to our liking. Way to go Malloy thanks for making our evening so nice.”
“Y’all we discovered an amazing new (to us) place in Columbus ..we were greeted by a friendly smiling staff as soon as we walked in and it was genuine kindness not fake and oh my soul and body was the food delicious…I mean really really delicious..the owner miss Parker brought us our food and chatted for a few mins and she’s a sweet lady..they have amazing coffee as well and tons and tons of sugar free latte options..Melissa my wife commented that it was like stepping back in time to when food quality was excellent and when the restaurant staff cared about your experience….yall please give them a try…..our faves were the Ruben and the roast beef hot pressed sandwiches and butternut squash soup..I was Leary about trying squash soup but it was so delicious I could eat it every day…”
“The ambience and atmosphere of this 5 star restaurant gives the entire city of Columbus a new definition. The food was amazing! Mr. Logan was the absolute best. He was on point with our entire experience. He didn’t skip a beat. We will come back again.Parking: Easy to get in and out your vehicle”
“This is my first time visiting this establishment and would recommend if you are wanting to enjoy some great comfort food and coffee. I came here to have a quiet place to complete some school assignments for this semester. I will definitely make this my go to spot for Saturday and Sunday mornings.”
“Ordered through their app and just went to drive through and picked up my order in little time since they made them fresh. Their staff were awesome and friendly. Everything was great.Parking: Plenty of parking.Kid-friendliness: There are foods for the kids to enjoy.Wheelchair accessibility: They have wheelchair parking and access.”
“Would be 5 stars if they seasoned thier food. I ordered the shrimp and grits and it was unseason shrimp and no salt added grit cakes I asked for extra sauce and it was a upcharge, and the price is a bit much other than that the service and restaurant was excellent.Parking: It's typical down town broad way parking. I had to walk 2 blocks to find parking.”
“Amazing service ! Everyone was so sweet ?✨??Parking: If it’s busy please don’t expect to park close to the store. But the service is fast ! Wait time less than 10 minutes”
“First time here & WOW!!The food, staff, & atmosphere are outstanding.The Bodega Benedict with chorizo was out of this world, as well as the carrot juice!Our waitress was amazing & gave us recommendations since it was our first time.Give this place a try!I will definitely be back!”
“So good, not always the fast food stuff, and the food is really good! There is in the back a Music store close by, so sometimes you can hear a guy playing some of his ”
“The food was great... My first time having a wing boil. I gave the service 3 stars because I asked for specific instructions on handling due to me having a severe seafood allergy and when I got there everything was in the same bag. Not only that, the bag was filled with butter making it real risky to drive back home almost two hrs without a big mess. I had to go back into the restaurant and get that fixed. Outside of that everything was fine. It was some young girls in there. THE OWNER need to make them aware that when a customer mentions a allergic to take it very serious. Someone's life is literally in their hands. I made them very aware of this when I called my order in and I was assured everything would be handled the way I asked. This was my first but not my last visit. I did make sure my EpiPen was near just in case. LOLUpdate....Thank you! SHE WAS A SWEETHEART THOUGH. I UPDATED YOU TO ALL 5 STARS. I appreciate you not taking my honest and opinionated review personally. It was definitely meant to educate, not slander. . MY FAMILY AND I will be back. :)”
