I can’t believe I’ve lived here for six years and just now tried this place! Loved every bit of it. I had chicken fried steak with gravy, mashed potatoes and corn fritters. My husband had the biggest piece of flounder stuffed with shrimp, scallops and crab imperial with mac and cheese and collard greens. The yeast rolls were so good! I think my favorite park was the lima beans and dumplings. WHAT!?!? That stuff was goooooood! Store was clean. Seating comfortable. Food seasoned...read full review

This place sucks…. Every time we go there they’re out of this out of that. .. stopped in for breakfast/ lunch it was 11:17 and they had no home fries?….. and I requested a bowl of soup and the waitress says it was too early?…. The food has gone down hill since restaurant impossible helped save them…. Used to be good but those days have passed

So glad we stopped here on our travels!! The food was amazing and the people were delightful. This place is a gem 💎 If we were locals, we would be here all the time!!!
