“Waitress named Jennifer is great waitress 💯👌“

“busy but clean. friendly, polite, knowledgeable waitress. great food and service. coffee cup never went low. go many times per year.“

“It was a very busy Saturday morning and the lady at the counter was taking orders, fixing the orders and was even trying to help the back of the house. She never changed her attitude. She was so kind to everyone that walked through the door.“

“The food was delicious. The service was for the most part good, but some of our order was missing. After waiting for her to come back I finally had to get up and hunt down our server, who was standing behind a partition talking with other employees. But she was apologetic and brought out the rest of our order very quickly. The food is a bit pricey but you get plenty of it. I loved the mozzarella cheese sticks, grilled chicken sandwich, and sweet potato fries. I ordered way too much, but it was just as good reheated the next day. We’ll be back.“

“great food. Granny's Kitchen is definitely a place to go“

“Nice beer selection. Allowed us to taste before buying. The chicken tenders were over cooked but still good. Fried Brussels sprouts were really good. Filled up very quick after dark. Beer cheese is basically Mexican Queso. Definitely recommend. Burger was great. Wings were cooked well, crispy, and meaty. Cajun fries were run of the mill, but still really good. Overall I would recommend to couples for a date night or a family needing a quick bite. It has a hometown vibe and I’m glad we stumbled upon it.“

“It’s on my Bucket List for sure!“

“Great people, great food, Had the best sweet tea I ever had. Must be the water .My wife and I said to each other every time we come up here from Fl. we will always come here.“

“Service, food, atmosphere was nice, Bailey and Kai were our servers and went out of their way to make sure our visit was enjoyable. Will stop by again when in the area.“

“We had two signature items from the menu that we have had many times. Not up to par this time (9-21-22). French onion soup was like warm. Mediterranean appetizer over browned. Italian pasta salad needed more oil and grated cheese. The added tofu was practically burnt and flavorless.“

“We had tasty cocktails, a delicious dinner and wonderful service. What more could you ask for?🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌“

“Fun downtown spot to grab a beer and have some food from Mad batter!“

“Everything, never have I been disappointed! The plus side your right next to Innovation. Great combo….“

“We stopped in for lunch and very much enjoyed our sandwiches. The Philly cheese steak and BBQ chicken sandwich (which was more like a panini) were delicious and we highly recommend them! We also enjoyed the “white trash” snack mix we took home for a treat to enjoy later. We will definitely stop by again when we are in town.“

“We had dinner here while visiting family in the area. The place looks nice & inviting. We chose to sit inside as the evening was a little cool. It was rather busy, tables all around us were full of ppl eating various plates of food. I noticed a table to our left & our right both had a very creamy & delicious looking Mac & cheese. I searched the menu & saw there were 2 options for Mac & cheese. One was under the kids menu section & the other was on the regular menu but with lobster, called Lobster Mac & cheese, it was $15. I thought of wow they must load the Mac & cheese with lobster for that price. I asked our waitress when she returned to take our order if the size of the Lobster mac & cheese was the same size as the ones on either table to our left or right? She looked at the table on one side of us & confirmed it was indeed the same portion size, so I then asked if it would have enough lobster in it for that price. She said that she thought it was a good portion of lobster in the Mac & cheese. So we ordered our plates & I ordered the lobster Mac & cheese. I sat there enjoying our conversation practically salivating thinking about the creamy delicious lobster Mac & cheese. When our food came out it didn't all come at once but was staggered, as the first items were brought out before the Mac & cheese, I was distracted by the other entree's when it was delivered. Well boy was I ever disappointed in what they actually delivered to our table as lobster Mac & cheese. Firstly it did not look anything like the creamy delicious looking Mac & cheese that I had pointed out to our server earlier. It was not creamy or cheesy like the other. It wasn't even the same pasta, it was relatively dry & had seasoning & onions in it & 3 teeny tiny little pieces of lobster set on top in the middle. I am not usually one to complain, but this was inedible for myself because it was full of onions, which was something I had asked the waitress about in another dish before ordering & would have thought she would have explained that the kids Mac & cheese was Not the same as the lobster Mac & cheese & also made me aware that the lobster Mac & cheese included onions. When she finally returned to our table I attempted to get her to just remove it from our bill as I wasn't going to eat it. She told me it wasn't in their policy to remove the lobster Mac & cheese from the bill & acted like she wouldn't even go ask a manager about it. I asked if I could have her remove the lobster Mac & cheese from the table & replace it with what I had actually wanted & pointed to at the other tables earlier. She finally left to I assume ask & then a couple minutes later she returned & said she was sorry but they would Not remove it from the bill or replace it with the kids Mac & cheese either! We paid our bill & I again looked at the menu on our way out to confirm that it did not describe the lobster Mac & cheese as a different pasta, having seasoning & onions in it. It did Not! First they should clearly describe the lobster Mac & cheese in the menu & secondly they should Not expect customers to pay for something they absolutely will Not eat because of hidden ingredients in their meal. This place put a bad taste in our mouth & we will Not be back while visiting family again.“

“Family owned diner with good food. We have eaten there for years. My kind of pkace“

“Very aesthetic and they had the air conditioner on cold. (We were exploring the village and some places had it at like 76 degrees.) The lady in there was very nice and I bought a water bottle in there because I was SO HOT for like $2. My parents bought candy though and it was good.“

“The food was delicious but the omelette station really slowed down the buffet line. Possibly because there were a couple of groups there. When we checked in, they asked first which group we were with even though I gave them our name. Oh well. I will repeat that the food was delicious!!!“

“We had a great experience at Guy’s restaurant! The place was very clean, the staff was extremely friendly and our food was fresh and delicious. Portions were big. The bacon Mac and cheese burger was delicious! The burger hung way off the bun and the onion straws were a nice addition. It was my birthday, so I indulged in the cheesecake. Dude! They gave me a whole half!!! of cheesecake that came with potato chips and pretzels on it, drizzled with chocolate syrup. Potato chips were a bit odd, but the pretzels were awesome on it! ?❤️ Our waiter was very kind, the bus boy was very busy cleaning up after people and when we finished, he immediately came over and offered to take our plates. It was a wonderful meal and we will be back our trip up!“

“I swear I think that was the BEST cup of coffee I've ever had!!! It was rich and smooth! I can't wait to go back to Cherokee, so I go by there to get a cup of coffee.☕️💜“

“Very good Indian tacos and buffalo burgers. We have to go back and try fry bread topped with blueberries and the pizza fry bread.“
