Wonderful restaurant with pleasant staff. The food was wonderful! Best chicken livers I have had in a long time! We will be volunteering at Sapelo Island, and will make the ferry trip to have lunch at Altmans as often as possible! Prices are great!

Stopped here this morning for some real food. Probably the best breakfast sandwiches ever (the waffle sandwich was to die for) and very quick service to get us back on the road to NC. Highly recommend

This is such a cute place! We stop here when we visit Pine Harbor Animal Hospital. The food is amazing and the staff is super friendly and seem so happy.

Tried to order a to go breakfast a few minutes before 10am. Got told breakfast was cut off. Everything online and on menus say breakfast ends at 10. I guess breakfast really ends somewhere around 9:50.

We came in between the lunch rush and dinner, around 3:30, and while the service was a little forgetful at the time (had to ask twice for a couple of things), everything was delicious! And great prices too. I had the fried flounder sandwich, fish was so fresh and tender, and my mom had the fried shrimp app. They said the shrimp are local Georgia shrimp and they tasted like it, super big and juicy, and fried perfectly! Better value is definitely the shrimp basket but she didn’t want the fries. Everyone was so nice and welcoming, was a great experience, definitely will be back!

What a gem of a find. Just a few miles off 95 and well worth the trip. The individuals who worked there were amazing, polite, friendly, helpful and informed. The cheeseburger was so big I could.barely finish it.

1st time food was great and fresh (seafood).
Slow time of day and slow service (took food a really long time to come out).
Environment ok. Catered to mostly locals.
2nd time food was awful (again, seafood).
Same time of day and slow service.
Environment loud (servers, not customers).
Mostly locals.
Won't go back when we pass through again.

Food was good at it's price point. The chopped steak with gravy was good. The mashed potatoes were good, maybe a little too much gravy, but good nonetheless. My wife had grilled chicken which was very good. Her sweet potato fries were just ok. They came out late and I suspect they rushed the frying because they were very soft. Service was very good and the waitress came to the table and appropriate amount of times to ask us if we needed anything. Why only 3 stars for atmosphere? The place is very dated and the bathroom could have been a bit cleaner. It wasn't terrible but there were nats flying around the urinal. Taking this all into account along with the reasonable prices I would give them a solid 4 out of 5. With a little TLC it could have been an easy 4.5. Still worth the stop.

Truly special! Locals fill the place all saying hi to each other like its Thanksgiving everyday! I drove 3 hours on my way home to have what i remember as glorious pork chops and man they were soooo good again. Hot, crispy, perfect! Hush puppies hot and tasty. My daughter had the amazing buffet filled with everything southern and finger licking (except pork chops) now the show stealer belonged to the cornbread. Did someone add brown suger and cinnamon to it? I thought i died and went to heaven on that first bite. Enough please dont go cause it will just make the line longer.... everyone STOP GOING TO BUCKIES and eat here. AMEN!
