I have moved into the area and am glad this place isn't far, the lack of a drive through is made up by excellent customer service that makes the trip inside worthwhile. My food order was confirmed and completed exactly as ordered. I went with broiled flounder, green beans and mashed potatoes, no gravy. The presentation for take out was perfect, my green beans are never that good. My sweet dish was banana pudding. It wasn't eaten until the next day but stayed fresh in...

We ordered takeout tonight and it was top tier! Everything was cooked perfectly. We got flounder, collard greens, squash casserole, chicken tenders, Black Eyed Peas and lima beans. Who ever was cooking tonight was on their game! Thank you for a delicious “home cooked” meal.

Great service food pretty mediocre for my taste. A lot of nostalgia here if you’re from Columbia, SC your parents probably dragged you out of bed on a Saturday to eat here. Some breakfast 🍳 is better than others. Stick to the classics don’t go off script at a southern restaurant.
