You can sit outside on the picnic benches to eat or get your food ordered to go. Call ahead if you would like and pick up or pull over and enjoy some great food. I highly recommend anyone in the area to stop by and try it for yourself.“

“Tried out of recommendation and the 2 slices I had were delicious, I came earlier in the day and definitely no rude in-counter. The sign about the bathroom requirements was abit off putting but my judgement was quickly dismissed when I was greeted and served 10/10 !“

“When I arrived I wasn't expecting much. I sat at the bar and was greeted promptly. I asked what was good and was told that if I like Sushi that is was really good! So I ordered some. It was fantastic!!

Good food, fast service and great atmosphere! I am definitely coming back!“

“The food is always hot, and fantastic! True Chinese! I tell everyone how great their food is. I wish they would open a sit down restarunt. I still love there food, but for the last year, every time I order any meat dish, it tasted like fish, I have spoken with them about it, and I am still getting fishy tasting food. This is why have dropped the stars from 5 to 4. But as for the chicken and pork dishes, that’s what I stick with.“

“Delicious homemade meals, fun atmosphere, friendly staff.“

“I had such a wonderful time! From the moment I walked in, everything felt warm and welcoming. The food was delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better brunch experience.

But what truly made my visit unforgettable was Adan, our server. He was genuinely kind, attentive without being overwhelming, and had such a positive energy that made the whole meal even more enjoyable. He anticipated everything we needed, gave great menu recommendations, and made us feel truly cared for. You can tell he really takes pride in his work, such a rare and refreshing quality.

I left feeling happy, full, and already planning my next visit. If you ever come to this location, ask for Adan! He’s a gem!“

“We have been wanting to try Tacos y Alitas since we move to Jackson last year. We finally did today & all I can say is....this was the most amazing food.

“We recently tried the Yellow Brick Road ice cream cake, and it was delicious! If you're someone who enjoys a variety of items packed into your birthday cake, this is definitely worth a try. The mix of flavors and textures made every bite exciting and tasty. Highly recommend giving it a shot for your next celebration!“

“Came here for a quick, Sunday homestyle breakfast and was not disappointed at all. The atmosphere is unique, to say the least, but also gives a lot to start conversations amongst the table. Serving portions were superb and food was very tasty. I have seen other comments and reviews that were very negative and nasty, but everybody can have a bad day once in a while. They were complaining on the service and owner/waiter being rude and yelling. I've seen more positive ratings than negative ones. While not everybody has the same humor, people can definitely be some Debbie downers. All in all, we had a nice experience and enjoyed the food. Ihop who?? Lol will def be back!!!“

“Tonight was my second time doing happy hour at JoeBellas. The Fig and Pear martini is straight up divine. The happy hour menu is fun. I had no problem eating Parmesan Truffle Fries for dinner LOL so so yummy. My husband and I brought his cousins last Saturday for a beautiful sit down dinner and as we were being seated we saw our neighbor's from two houses over! Bought them a round of course. Everyone was very happy with their meal. What a fun local restaurant. You'll wait in the summer time of course, totally worth the wait but now that we locals have it back I'll be frequenting more often. I happen to bring a friend tonight who is now a loyal fan. #lovejoebellas“

The holiday decor is a whole vibe—the owners and staff really went all out to provide a warm, inviting experience for their customers. We are always greeted warmly and made to feel welcome. I always enjoy the time spent at Woodys, whether with friends or family. The seating options are many as the heated outdoor area is available all year long. Good food+great service+awesome ambiance=a fantastic experience.“

“Pretty sure we’ll never get pizza anywhere. So amazing to see a restaurant take “gluten free” seriously. Their gluten free pizza came on its own baking sheet to avoid cross contamination in the oven. They also didn’t cut it but instead delivered w w a plastic pizza cutter. Best part was the taste 💕. Kid approved. Thank you so much. Ordering again tonight !“
