“Small spot with delicious food! Order at one of the kiosks and your food is made to order by very friendly staff. The brisket tacos are so delicious, but be warned the Diablo sauce is as spicy as the name implies! The portions are also very generous, two tacos were more than enough. The bowls are equally large and fresh.“

“Update!!I finally got mine!!I feel like i found a bag of money!!This food is so good im already planning my next order!!So, so, worth every penny!! You will only regret that you haven't ordered sooner. Seriously.I have only witnessed these salads and the other items offered. The quality of the ingredients and the taste( I got ONE bite) have made me plan a day to experience for myself. I offer this review as an in-advance show of love for someone who is clearly passionate and loving in their creation of food for other humans. Amazing concept and the execution is sheer perfection. Don't get me started on describing the moans I heard while someone was eating those eggs . I was soooo jealous. Ordering in advance is tough for some people, but let me say this...the only drawback you will see is how distracted you are waiting for the moment you receive your food. Amazing!“

“I ordered takeout from here yesterday for dinner and got an extra meal for lunch today. The roast beef was so tender and delicious! The mashed potatoes with gravy were some of the best mashed potatoes I've had from a restaurant. The cornbread is flat pancake style, so good. My only complaint about my meat and three was that I ordered turnip greens and got green beans instead. They were still delicious, but I really wanted the turnip greens. Lol my leftover spaghetti today was good. My friend said his catfish was really good as well.I needed comfort food for a hard day, and this place did not disappoint. Reminded me of my grandmother's and mother's southern cooking, which was just what I needed. Portions and prices are fair, too. Highly recommend this little gem!“

“My first meal in Columbia since the 80’s. I had my heart set on enjoying a catfish dinner while I was in Tennessee . I was overjoyed at the service, quality of food, and atmosphere. Highly recommend this eatery to anyone wanting a traditional, southern fried fish meal. The bar has been set for any future catfish meal, and will be tough to meet my expectations set by Catfish Campus.“
