What our guests are saying

We stopped by for lunch and had the fried green tomatoes, shrimp salad and the strawberry cheesecake bites. Everything was so good! Can’t wait to be back!

I've eaten here several times, and I think my only complaint is they give you too much food! Seriously, that's not a complaint. I had breakfast here this morning, and it was delicious. Eggs over medium, sausage patties, grits, and potatoes with onions and peppers. The grits were fantastic, perhaps the best I've had anywhere. Also, try the coconut cream pie. My server was very attentive and nice as could be.

Biscuits and gravy was like Granny's, brought back childhood memories on Mother's Day with my children. I really enjoyed everything.
