I looked up a place for chicken fried steak and this one topped the list so we gave it a shot. My steak was good. Seasoned and cooked well. The sides I ordered got messed up but I ate the corn stuff. My sweet potato was a bit soggy but the reason we came was good. The place has a long history and you can see it when you walk in. It's very dated but it was clean. Our server other than messing up the order did a great job checking in and seeing if we needed anything.

Went on a recommendation. Maybe my expectations were too high. The food was not seasoned well. Nothing was bad it just didn't taste good to me. The service was incredible & the atmosphere is very welcoming. Very clean. Plenty of parking. Go judge for yourself. I'll go back & try something else.

This is a really good spot for older individuals, or those with certain types of dietary needs. I took my parents who are in their 70s and they loved it.

The wait person was nice enough.
I suppose the food was okay for a certain palate. The macaroni was bland and overcooked but the cheese sauce was 'runny' but really good, lima beans tasted 'canned', turnips were overcooked to the consistency of a 'mush', cornbread bites WERE actually hot & soft when served 20 mins BEFORE the dinner arrived. The chicken fried chicken (a battered breast) was okay but should have that white gravy ON THE SIDE.
While it has nothing to do with the food, they should REALLY consider replacing the floors. If the areas the customers can see, look the way they do, I don't want to think about the food prep areas 🤢
It seems people really like it ..... maybe convenience, maybe location, maybe familiarity, maybe loyalty, maybe variety, maybe nostalgia.
So, maybe the head chef was out that day and the meal was just 'meh' that day 🤔

BAD SERVICE! We sat for 20 minutes without being acknowledged. 2 other families were seated after us, and got their orders in before they greeted us. Once we ordered, we asked for water with lemon, drinks came with no lemon.
The food tasted great, but great food with bad service is still a bad experience.

Corn bread dry, no butter in it. Beans dry. One piece fish, split in half. No condiments. If they do it right, it will be ok. However, they continue to send delivery foods sloppy
It was ok my pancakes tasted spicy 🔥 the were not good at all
Unacceptable Discrimination and Lack of Accommodation
This establishment fails to uphold basic disability rights and demonstrates discriminatory practices. My experience was deeply disappointing, and I cannot recommend this place to anyone.
I recently underwent a medical procedure that limits how much I can eat. In most restaurants, I’ve been able to order from the kids’ menu or request a half-portion for health reasons. However, this establishment refused to provide any reasonable accommodations.
The first waiter declined my request outright, and the manager was equally unhelpful and unprofessional. After speaking with the manager, the initial waiter did not return to our table. We flagged down another waiter (Matthew), but before we could even explain our situation, he approached us with an insensitive attitude, immediately stating what he “wasn’t going to do.”
This level of disregard for customer needs, especially health-related accommodations, is unacceptable and potentially illegal. I strongly advise against dining here. Zero out of ten.
