When we expressed moving to a bigger table when we thought there were going to be two extra people she said it was out of her section and offered to move the next table onto ours. In the end we didn't really need the extra room as one of the two extras didn't show. The food was great. I got the all you can eat special. They came in a small plate the same as the ones for bread. You got 2 pieces, French fries and jalapeno hush puppies. Then you don't get to have any kind of bottles except salt and pepper. Me and my sister wanted ketchup they gave 2 little packs. When we asked for more the waitress was super nice and brought out more in little containers. Then when asking for more as it's all you can eat you get 1 and fries.

We opted not to order lunch, and we're so glad we did! The steak was large and fried to crispy perfection. We also enjoyed the Broccoli and Rice Casserole, Sweet Potato Fries, Cheese Potato Soup, and Mac and Cheese. Everything was incredible, and the warm, delicious rolls were a nice touch too!

We tried the chicken fried brisket, garlic herb shrimp, fried okra, fries, macaroni and cheese, and chicken dumplings. The macaroni was simply pasta without any sauce, the okra was bland, and the fries and dumplings were just okay. We both agreed that the brisket and shrimp weren't worth taking home. The only dish we enjoyed was the fried mushrooms. The waiter was very kind and helpful, but the food simply didn't meet our expectations.
