This is my go to for sides of potato salad, Cole slaw. Beans, Brunswick stew. Prices are good. Service is great and friendly. Senior discounts also. Only problem, more people have discovered how great they are or they are driving through because of dining restrictions. They have new board of menu items.

Amanda was a breath of fresh air today. She was so kind and patient. Do what you all can to keep her. The food has improved tremendously since the last time we visited. Great job!

Loved the service!!! First time trying with the family and the patience and kindness the manager had made it felt very welcoming. We didn’t know the menu but they helped and didn’t make us feel pressured to order or stressed. The environment felt very nice and calm, someone you can sit and really enjoy your food. Food was worth the money too and was very filling. 100% coming back for more. I loved it!!!!

Food was really good. The white meat chicken breast was delicious and a huge piece. My son got a chicken sandwich and loved it. BUT what was really amazing was the service. Amanda was so incredibly nice. All businesses should treat their customers the way she did. We will be back often.
