The food is sooo good! Especially the wings! Everyone is so nice and personable! Update 2024: under new mgt. Food is excellent! Drinks too! I wish I could remember the young lady who took care of us but it's ok because everyone who we spoke to that worked there, were great! Also, the wings are still gargantuan y'all...and super tasty! Pork chops...amazing and tasty, nicely seasoned!

A ridiculous wait and felt forgotten. Then my order was incorrect and waitress said it was kitchens fault. I didnt want to wait any longer so I took 1 order instead of the 2 I had ordered. Only to arrive at home and discover that I ended up with a missing piece of catfish. I sent a complaint email to Tobys over a week ago with no response.I really like the old school vibe and the food, but this was not a good situation.

✅?? 24JAN2024- Outstanding customer service Delicious southern food. Thanks Ronald ?? ?? Try the lemon pepper catfish w/ cabbage & candied yams + add a side of Mac & cheese you won't be disappointed. If you're in town for Navy graduation ⚓ stop by for a Tasty home cooked meal. Located down the street from the NEX ?? so when you get hungry stop by and have a taste. I promise this will be money ? well spent.

Terrible service! The staff was rude and inattentive. ...The hygiene standards at this place are appalling.I had high hopes for this restaurant based on the reviews, but I was sorely disappointed.!!!!!!! Back to my grannies when I can get back home !!!!!

The food was delicious. Good southern soul food that came out fresh and warm. The service was nice. The girls working were nice to customers and had the pleasant callouts to everyone. Like "baby, and honey". To me makes it a more homely place to come to.Service, some times they would get distracted and I heard a few grumbling from others that something was missed on their orders. The atmosphere when it comes to the patrons were welcoming. As an outsider sitting at the bar everyone was pleasant to me. The place was just dated. It could use a little bit of freshening up.Other than that I enjoyed the place. Told my wife and brother about it right away. Just some good old cooking. If/when I am back in the area, I will make this a stop for food again.

The food was ok the prices not so much. It took like an hour to get a burger and an appetizer tray that's ridiculous. No military discount won't be wasting my hard earned money here again.

5+5?=?So, I finally have a chance to give you the diddy on Toby's!?I really love this place, folks are really nice, it's an older crowd, not too many jitterbugs, and those younger folks are very respectful the few that were in there. The ladies running the front had their kids their, doing double duty. And I mean the women were doing the double duty, raising children and running the front. It really is a family affair.?I'll post a picture of my barbecue pork sandwich and a quick catfish dinner. All delicious! Compliments to the chefs. The place is clean, people are friendly, good conversation, and a lot of laughing. I have to give them a really excellent score on atmosphere. Also, a great place to watch the game. I'm going to add this to my favorites list, along with sports bar hopping.??⚾I currently have 144 million on my views, so I don't pull any punches, and I don't give bad reviews. If I have an issue, I will wait until the next time. Everyone has bad days. But the two times that I've been there, zero bad days!Special mention to Vreszae, very kind, efficient, and very funny.?Also, plenty of slots! I'm not a slots guy, but if that's your gig, you can eat good and play to your heart's content.?Vegetarian options: Yep, plenty.Dietary restrictions: Just ask, chef will take care of you.Parking: More than enoughKid-friendliness: Well, they were plenty of kids there, I don't think there is an issue.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, right in front.

Pork chop sandwich was great. Generous serving of potato wedges. Carryout still hot when I got home. No ketsup in bag or offered at check out. Service a little slow. Very friendly staff, patrons and atmosphere.
