Went once before and could not get in. Everytime in passing it has always been pretty busy. I was finally able to get in and I wasn't disappointed. It cooks to perfection, I had ordered the lamb dish with some sidings. I loved how the meat was medium rare, gravy and mashed potatoes home scratch flavor, corn was as expected and I was actually surprised with the fried cornbread. Everything was great experience. I personally did not like the sweet sauce the lamb had but I made up with that with adding some lemon. For the price and the service. I really have no complaints. Thank you and looking forward to another experience at this place.

This place is really neat! Make sure you check out the specials menu on the back wall. The printed menu is limited. I had the lamb chops with green beans and fried green tomatoes. The tomatoes were on point and the lamb chops were good. The flavor of the green beans reminded me of a southern comfort home cooked meal. My husband had the fish and chips, (sorry he had ate same before the photo) he said they were basic but good. Both dishes came with a potato or cornbread pancakes (not sure) and were tasty with the whipped spread. But what really stood out was how nice all the staff were! Very welcoming atmosphere!

The desk at our hotel suggested we try this place. When we got there it was packed and it took a few minutes before someone acknowledged us. The staff made us feel like we were locals. The owner came up and introduced himself and made small talk with us while we waited.
I had the Hot brown, which I had never heard of. It was fantastic.
My wife had the meatloaf, and said it was unique but very good.
Great experience overall
