Description

Comfort-food haven serving standout fried catfish, cheese sticks, burgers and homestyle classics like chicken and dumplings. Generous, affordable portions and friendly, old-fashioned service create an inviting, homey dive popular for lunch and dinner. Space and parking are limited; staffing strains and occasional ordering miscommunications have been reported, and online hours may be unreliable. Shared frying means cross-contact for dietary restrictions. Still, diners praise fast, tasty plates and attentive staff who make the place feel like a neighborhood gem.

My daughter raved the cheese sticks were the best she ever had and would stop by just for them alot. The fried catfish best anywhere around. We will be dining there again tonight. Kid-friendliness: My grandson is autistic and they know exactly what he wants as soon as we walk in the door

This is one of the off the beaten path little places that makes you feel like home. Great food, conversation and staff. I would love it if this place was closer to home. Thank you for a wonderful meal and making us feel welcome and such an inviting atmosphere.
