I called in my order and arrived 15 minutes early. I was told that the order wasn't ready. The order came upfront 30 minutes later. I asked for a receipt and the lady at the register gave me a written receipt with the order and prices scribbled on it. Me, assuming that the order was correct, I did not check it before I left. When I arrived home, three minutes away, the food was cold. I will never patronize this place ever again. The service, food and atmosphere was awful and deserve 0 stars.
Lovely place for lunch in Selma.
Experience a nostalgic charm at this quaint small-town diner. Be sure to sample one of their daily specials. I had the turkey and gravy, served with collard greens, candied yams, and a green salad. The meal also came with cranberry sauce and cornbread muffins. The collard greens tasted just like my mom's and were absolutely delightful. Although the diner is somewhat tucked away, it’s easy to locate just across from the public library.
Food was nice and hot well cooked and very tasty ?
The Downtowner is fun sort of like stepping back in time to a small town diner in the 50's, without the typical kitsch that usually accompanies this vibe. The burgers were fine and they offer a good selection of alcohol free beverages.
