The owner, Mr. Willie, is still lively and approachable – he even greeted my mom warmly! I love the energy that must be embedded in the walls and the checkerboard floor, filled with memories. Even though I grew up in Memphis, I had no idea this place existed, but my experience here was incredibly rewarding!

The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff was incredibly friendly. We were particularly impressed that Mr. Willie was on hand to ensure our order was perfect. Fun fact: Mr. Willie has marched alongside Dr. Martin Luther King!

There was not a waitress, we just ordered food and sat down. He is too old to be this ignorant. I will never step foot in this place again.

We ordered breakfast. The pancakes tasted better than they looked. The sausage had no flavor. The eggs were runny. The grits and bacon were great. $40 for 2 people for breakfast. Not a bad place but I don't have to return. The owner was nice.

There's no way he's passing any health inspection because the place is fifty nasty including the kitchen, I should've walked out then but I try to support my black people.

This is the best fried pork chop I've ever had. It was crispy and tender. I normally don't order pork chops because they're over cooked which makes them dry and tough. But not these! Perfectly cooked and delicious.
