Description

A beloved old-school diner serving hearty Southern comfort—homemade sausage (sold to take home), sausage gravy, fried catfish, chicken-fried steak and a salad bar—staffed by warm, attentive servers. Most dishes taste fresh and nostalgic, though a few items (fries) may be frozen, and some menu items feel overpriced (thin bacon burger; pricey sides). The atmosphere is casual, hole-in-the-wall and ideal for breakfast or a homestyle lunch, but vegetarian and modern-dining seekers may find options limited.

Went for lunch yesterday and we enjoyed our fried shrimp platter and our bacon cheeseburger. Great quality for great value. Friendly staff and we came back this morning for breakfast. Forgot to take pics, but breakfast was delicious. Remind us of one of our favorite family diner restaurants. We will be back a lot. Service: Dine in Meal type: Breakfast

Out of the way old school dinner. I never eat fried anything hadn't eaten catfish in over 10 years. Had been working a fair 13 hours was just starving. Our waitress was amazing. I can't remember her name, but dark hair tattoos. Very nice, and service was on point. Ordered fried catfish shrimp with fried okra green beans. The waitress said everything was made fresh except for frozen french fries( per customer's request). My stomach is sensitive to fried things, I had absolutely zero indigestion after eating my meal. Light, I believe cornmeal coating on fish, shrimp, was perfect. Homemade/homestyle green beans. The only change would be the tartar sauce, less mayo more horseradish. Hole in the wall place, but the food was great. I wish my grandmother was alive, I know she'd love eating this food.
