“Absolutely delicious! We stopped in on a Tuesday for dinner and were greeted with great service. We got the catfish, mashed potatoes, fried chicken, and mac and it was all amazing! I haven’t found anything so close to family cooking in a restaurant before. We both left clean plates. Will definitely be returning!“

“I had a great experience at Olives tonight. Everyone from the hostess (Elise) to our waitress (Emily) exemplified great customer service. A couple of my favorites were the brussel sprouts and the lychee drink. We will be back!“

“Today we went out for a late breakfast/early lunch and had Robin as our server. She was very good and I wanted to do a small shout out to her. It was fairly busy and she was still super friendly and giving excellent service. Food was really good too. I've been coming to Bob Evans for years and will keep coming back. :)“

“Try the Honey chicken & biscuit“

“We arrived mid afternoon and split the “Two meat meal.” We chose fried chicken and fried catfish with green beans and candied yams (what, do you think we’d come to The Candied Yam and NOT order candied yams?). We were also able to have some of their Mac and cheese.

The chicken and catfish were delicious! The chicken was especially temperature hot and juicy, but I have to say that I liked the catfish even more!

The yams and Mac and cheese were excellent as well! The green beans were done in a Southern style, by which I mean cooked until very soft. Tasty, but personally I prefer them al dente with a more firm texture.

I believe this location does mostly take out orders so the dining area is limited in size and decor. But you’re here for the homemade recipes that did not disappoint! You owe it to yourself to give The Candied Yam a try!“

“ordered the flavored fried chicken with fries and it was a really satisfying meal. the chicken was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and coated with plenty of seasoning that added great flavor. the fries were hot, crispy, and paired perfectly with the chicken. definitely a meal i'd order again.“
