Ordered the roast beef with carrots/rice Mac n cheese Lima beans w/cornbread. There's obviously some things i would've added (seasoning), however it was quite good for a restaurant. Love love country cooking, by far one of the better choices around bay county as far as that.

More of a take out style, but great soul food. Any combo of meat & two, & great veggies! Fried pork chops today were awesome! We drove around looking for lunch after CHRISTmas Eve AM service nearby...after driving all the way to Mexico Beach, (finding many closed restaurants), ended up stumbling upon this little gem heading back to PCB. On Va-K for Holiday & I'm sure we'll be back! Owners were really awesome too!! Blessings upon ur business & lives!?TY! ?

5 stars is underrated. This is in my opinion the absolute best place I have ever ate at in Florida. Hands down amazing food and atmosphere. My only issue is they aren't open 24/7.

Heard it was a good place. So I go in and there’s about five trays of some food that I don’t know what the hell it is. Also, it’s hotter than hell in there zero air-conditioning I can’t eat in a place that feels like a furnace. I bought some food, but I didn’t eat it because it didn’t seem to sanitary in there. I drop the bag right in the dumpster.

No AC so if you don't want to get hot then do take out. Food and service is worth the drive from the beach! Cool atmosphere with Jazz music!Vegetarian options: Lots of options, highly recommend the rutabagas!

Had a taste for some soul food. Found this place on Yelp and was surprised it was open on Mommy day. Friendly family owned business.
