Half way between Mobile AL and Dallas TX we needed lunch and AI said stop here. It was perfect. Amazing food, great service and sat outside to enjoy some fresh air before continuing our long road trip. A great break. Thanks.

Wow! So happy to have found this gem… excellent fresh food made to order!! Quaint restored historic building with nice local art on display for sale. Very polite & professional server. Just a short detour from I-49, & so worth it!!!

The food was absolutely amazing and it's been awhile since I've had a good burger and it's absolutely incredible +10/10. The staff were so kind and the atmosphere might seem a little bit desolate at first but it really was the best place to stop by if you're hungry and on a trip or if you really want good food
