“Jackson TN was the half way point to where we were going. We wanted to stay away from commercial restaurants and saw this place had great reviews. We got chicken strips and pork chops. The chicken strips were very good. Not over cooked at all. The onion rings were also cooked perfectly. The pork chop was so very good. The seasoning was great, it was tender and not dry. Highly recommend.“

“Can you please add gravy or no gravy to the chicken and dressing on your menu? I don't like gravy on mine. Also please add more cranberry sauce to the chicken and dressing. The amt. is so scant. Also we need to have a choice of pie when we order. You send whatever you have the most of it seems. And I've ordered tea and haven't got recently. I order fairly frequently from dumplins. I use delivery. The food is good. And the portion sizes are enough for 2 meals for me. Thank you.“

“Took bestie here for birthday dinner. Second time here and food really good. Clint was our server. He was really awesome! Very attentive kept drinks full and always there if you need him. Ask for him! We will be back!“

“I never knew they were there. The taco salad was great just like I make it at home. The portion was large and the price was very affordable. I will definitely be ordering there again they have a large selection.“

“the food is always great no matter what I choose to get“

“New to town and wanted something fresh for lunch and found this place scrolling around on Google maps. My group tried 3 of their sandwiches and everyone really enjoyed them. Box lunch is a deal that comes with your sandwhich, choice of a side (we did potato and mac salad, potato was the fave), a drink, and a large homemade cookie. Cookies were amazing! Price was 11.50 per box lunch at the time of this review, very reasonable for the quantity and quality of food you get. Also, the ladies behind the counter were nice as can be, new lunch spot for sure!“

“Food is ALWAYS delicious. Service is always excellent. We make it a point to always stop at redbones when in the area repossessing cars for TriStar Auto Sales in Lebanon TN. Kaitlyn was our waitress tonight. So friendly, prompt, and knowledgeable. Will always stop when we are in the area!“

“Hey just went out to for lunch at Logan's Roadhose in Jackson. Man Everthing was on point... Went in had no wait, was seated immediately and our drinks orders were taken right away. There were so many choices for Appetizers we order a bunch of them. By the time we got our Entrée's we were quite full. Brylie, our server was most accommodating and made sure our orders were made to our specifications. She kept coming back to make sure all was fine and kept refilling our glasses. The owner Aaron also came by a few times to make sure we were totally happy with our meals. If you look at the pictures below I'm sure you'll see the portions are Plentiful and L@@k Delicious. I will definitely be returning again and again. Thank you for a Pleasant Experience.“

“Loved it! Had a great time laughing and enjoyed the food.“

“Our go-to place for barbecue and fixings, vegetables, value, and service. Just a bit west of Jackson on Hwy. 70. Has daily specials and lots of food for the money. We especially like the pulled barbecue, cabbage, green beans, stir fried vegetables cooked in olive oil, cornbread, and pecan pie. We have not come close to eating everything that is available.“

“USDA Prime 40oz Tomahawk Special medium rare with potatoes…Exquisite! Included Molten chocolate lava cake spectacular. If you see this 2 person special (with appetizer and salad and bottle of wine!), jump on it. Server April rounded out a fabulous night. Will be back!“

“Quincy was a awesome server. Food was hot . He was very friendly.“

“I go to this waffle house all the time. Ive found they have really good fast food and idk why but their particular waffles always hits the spot. The employees almost always are the correct level of polite and respectful and really its just a positive atmosphere“

“Went there for an early dinner. Waitress was busy so another lady took our drink orders which was 2 waters. Our waitress finally appeared and we explained to her that another lady had taken our drink orders but she never delivered them. Our original waitress ended up getting our drinks and then took our order. Evidently the original waitress was slammed with customers but when she was able she did check with us frequently asking us if there was anything else we needed. We will return in the future.“

“I have always loved red lobster that will never change….always the best place to eat“

“Good food with good people! Something for everyone.“

“Anytime I find myself out late at night for a drive, the bright lights are like a beacon. I come here to chill and enjoy my own company without the distractions. Tonight, the service was excellent and the food was cooked perfectly! I appreciate good service at such a late hour. Thank you✌🏽🫶🏽💯“

“I went for my 22nd birthday and will continue to come every year (if not more often) best experience at a restaurant I've ever had. Lexi Dawn was an AMAZING waitress. She was so patient and nice and funny and recommend all the good drinks. She definitely matched the vibe of me and my friends who went. I would go here everyday if I could.“

“I don't eat at LongHorn very often, but this location really impressed me. The waitress was super attentive, and did a great job. The sirloin was cooked a beautiful medium rare, salad was super fresh, mash potatoes came out extra creamy, and the brews were ice cold.“

“Fantastic food and service. Fish and chips was excellent, best I've had since England. Coleslaw with it was perfect and my husband said tarter sauce was great ( I'm a malt vinegar gal). would definitely eat here again next time we pass thru.“

“Today, March 29, 2025 at about 2:08 p.m we had a GREAT EXPERIENCE at Marble Slab Creamery located at 1032a Vann Drive in Jackson, TN 38305. Samantha T. was very NICE and PROFESSIONAL! She knew her job and she is good at it, she was patient with us. I did not know exactly what I wanted, she was attentive and courteous. THANKS Samantha T.! The world can take notes from you; it would be a better place if everyone had your kind demeanor. I would definitely recommend this place. The ice cream and the Great America cookies are PHENOMENAL!! Keep doing what you are doing!
SATISFIED HAPPY CUSTOMER!!“

“If you can't find something you like here you aren't looking hard enough. The variety and quality of the food was outstanding for a Chinese buffet. Every kind of shrimp, firm crawfish, clams, mussels, a wide variety of chicken, frog legs, awesome sushi and the list goes on. The service was prompt and pleasant.

The only knock is that the food, other than the blue crabs, isn't labeled.“

“I've really come to like Capt D's. I've been to several other ones over the past few months. I would have to say that the food here was not as good as the one in Millington or in Paris Tennessee. But it was still good and had great service. But I would have to say that if you are ever in Paris Tennessee, it's definitely worth the stop.“

“Great staff here! I was lazy and waited until the last minute, but they got me taken care of! That place was like visiting the stock exchange, but they handled the crowd and the hollering very professionally. The ham and turkey were amazing and I would like to thank all you ladies and gentlemen there for all your hard work!!“

“never had a problem with Waffle House! food is fantastic and the wait staff is superb!“

“I traveled a lot in the last 5 years and have eaten at 32 different locations. I have only ever had 1 bad meal and the MP Managing partner was on site and comped my entire meal and invited me back on her. When we arrived we were greeted promptly and everyone was smiling. The music was Christmas and the volume was perfect. Every where I looked was clean and well kept. Today Pam and I and a good friend Jeff who also spent many years in the food industry came in for a Sunday lunch. We began with a House margarita with a Patron kicker while Pam had a glass of Dark Horse Cabernet, and Jeff had water (light weight). We then had a Cactus Blossom which was perfectly cooked not grease at all but crisp and fresh. Pam had a Filet Mid Rare it was cooked perfectly With a house salad with Romaine instead of Iceberg and it was very cold and fresh my gal was very happy. Jeff had the Ribeye and Ribs which he devoured and never said much as he was busy stuffing his face. lol I had a 16oz Mid Rare Prime Rib with a house salad and loaded baker. The Salad was verry cold and crisp and the house made dressing was great. My potato was hot and fluffy. Now My Prime Rib was freaking great. for starters I think it was about 20oz instead of 16oz it was a perfect Mid Rare. Our Server was a gentleman named "Q". One of the best server I have come across in a long while. He had a great personality and very fun, and he had great menu knowledge, and was well versed in the wine list which I find very rare. The Manager Eileen came by the table and asked how we were doing. We had a great chat and we praised her staff and food and she put the focus back on her Staff, a true professional.“

“Let me tell you my first time coming in here was on Saturday morning and it was so good I came back Sunday because I thought of the food all day… if I don’t see rockstar Riley the cook, keontra or Jessica there on my weekends now I don’t want it.. they took great care of me and I will forever be a customer there because of it from the cooking to the service“

“breakfast and burgers everything there really“
