My first time coming , the inside is clean & beautiful, everybody is so welcoming & greetings, I had the lemon raspberry waffle it was very good & I had the pot roast & grits 10/10 the grits was amazing and the pot roast was perfection definitely a combination that’s worth the try, I will be back & the prices are budget friendly . I would say if you want parking & a walk in come on a weekday it’s less busy.

I literally sat down… and he looked at me. Studied me....

We ordered the recommend chicken with cornbread French toast and the pot roast with grits. Literally never imagined these combinations a...
