“Had the shrimp dinner and Key Lime pie......both were good . Our server was excellent. Sat at the table right behind the entry desk. Feb 7, 2023 5:00 pm“

“The burgers are some of the best ive ever had. Found this gem of a place while traveling. My fiance found it and we gave it shot because of the name itself, my late grandfathers name. Not local to the area but they are definitely worth the 2.5 hour drive. Have been in 4 times already. The Lemmy burger with the chips is still my favorite. Make sure to get a side of barbecue sauce for the housemade chips! picture attached is the Astro Burger“

“Honey Baked Ham is locally owned and delicious! They have boxed lunches to go or you can dine in. We had a ham sandwich and a turkey sandwich and both were great. The cookies are the best!! Highly recommended place to eat. Great atmosphere and the staff were super nice!“

“I apologize for the very late review, but after having a less than stellar restaurant experience this evening, I wanted to go back and write this review. It's probably been close to a month, if not longer, since we last ate here. Food has always been great, service has always been great, wait times are more than fair and reasonable. This particular evening, more than likely a Saturday, it was busy but we were immediately seated. Our waitress Brooklyn (if that's incorrect I seriously apologize, but I believe that was her name) was awesome in every way, not one single complaint about her. If anything, I wanted to make sure she gets her props for how great she was. We ordered our food, waited, and maaaybe had to wait between a half hour and forty five minutes for our food? Something like that? Absolutely nothing out of the ordinary, especially on a busy day. Totally get it. Brooklyn must've sensed that it had been a little longer than usual, so she immediately went out of her way to check on our food twice and made sure it came out. The food came out, she apologized for the wait (which she didn't even have to, again it wasn't even much of an extended wait time), and the food was delicious. Which brings me to the point of this review. If it had stopped there, we would have been more than satisfied, but it didn't. Brooklyn not only did all of that but also proactively went and got her manager to come speak with us. We weren't disgruntled, we didn't ask for that nor expect that, but she took it upon herself to make sure we were satisfied. And I'm sorry for forgetting the manager's name, but he too was as friendly and helpful as could be. Not only did he come speak with us and apologize for the wait, but he gave us an option for a free dessert. Which I will emphatically state that 1.) we were NOT trying to get that, nor were we even anticipating that, and 2.) he absolutely did NOT have to do. Brooklyn and this manager showed true signs of professionalism and did what they could to make sure we were coming back to the restaurant in the future, instead of waiting to correct a mishap and then apologize later. I could not be happier with this interaction, and I would recommend this restaurant every time. In a world where mistakes happen all the time but people have zero patience, courtesy, or understanding of how businesses and customer service in particular operate (and yes, I've worked in several customer service jobs), two people in particular stepped up and showed that they know what they are doing and that they have knowledge and skill in their profession. Sorry for the long winded review, but I feel very deeply about how these interactions should be handled, especially after not receiving that at another different restaurant this evening. Keep up the good work.“

“This was by far the absolute WORST Waffle House my family & I had ever been to. We stopped here for dinner on our way home from a family outing & I really wish we had not. We sat at the booth for well over 15 min. before anyone would acknowledge us or even come to our table. When the waitress with the pink hair finally did come, she was rude and complaining of other customers. It took her 10 min. just to bring our drinks, which she gave us no straws & my coffee was cold & tasted old. We never seen her again. She was to busy flirting with a group of guys. Eventually another waitress brought us our food 30 min. later & the order completely wrong. Guests who came in way after us received their food first. My husband & I were finished eating by the time our kids even got their food. Not one time was we offered a refill, ask how the food was or anything. BTW, the bacon was extremely burnt, the eggs were cold as well as the grits & they forgot half our order. What a mess, very unprofessional, the cook was not wearing gloves as he was preparing food & the bathrooms & restaurant was dirty. The worst experience dining out EVER!!! Save your time & money & do yourself a favor & just go to a different Waffle House.“

“Great experience! The poor staff were so short handed and yet our food was super hot and delicious! Our waitress was so friendly and very attentive! We haven’t had steak in shake since before the pandemic as we are from Pennsylvania and ours went out of business. 😢 So this was a real treat! One thing that changed was the 🤑. Was $4.00 now it was $9.00, but still worth it! 😋 Oh ya one more thing you order at the counter , pay and then be seated so bring cash for tip.“

“Food is Always GOOD At Bobs!“

“Y'all need to give your lady chef a pay raise. My husband and I came between the lunch and dinner rush. We ordered the stacked mozzarella sticks and the cheesy spinach dip. Both were served piping hot, with excellent melt on the cheese.

But the real treat was the BBQ smokehouse burger and the Bistro Steak and Shrimp Alfredo linguine. My husband says his burger was cooked to perfection. I was hesitant to order the linguine from a place mainly known for games, by my husband said the LOOK on my face when I tried the first bite was the BEST birthday gift he could have.

The steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare, as requested. Most steakhouses don't get it right. The seasoning complemented the dish instead of overpowering the steak. The shrimp...do you know how hard it is to NOT overcook shrimp? They were so juicy and flavorful. And the lobster Alfredo sauce was the perfect balance of lobster flavor and fresh.

Give. That woman. A raise.

Our server Abby was kind and polite, too!“
