    If you want home-style cooking, good sized portions, at a reasonable price, this is the place. The menu is a simple one (and subject to change). It will be what they have and what they're making when you're there. You won't wait long for your order and it will be fresh and hot. The service is friendly, and it's quite likely that the owners will be there when you are. By the way, if you like fried okra, you owe it to yourself to try it here. Definitely made from scratch fresh (like everything else).

    We tried the same dish. Mostly due to no dark meak chicken. I wasn't impressed with the sweet potato casserole. It was very sweet and gummy.

    Wonderful little family-owned restaurant serving home cooked style country meals. Mrs Padgett took our order and Mr Padgett brought our food to the table. We had a chance to visit with both, they are a lovely and friendly couple. DW ordered meatloaf, cucumber salad, potato salad and biscuit. I ordered the chicken and rice casserole, pinto beans, cabbage and cornbread. Our food arrived quickly, hot and was delicious. We were so taken with everything that we returned again the following day on the way home.

    Stopped into this die-hard American roadside café to grab some breakfast. Let me start with this place is more patriotic than ANY DEFAC or Chow Hall I've ever visited. I decided to try the Western omelet with a biscuit and a side of grits. Being a northerner I enjoy maple syrup in my grits, nothing needed! These grits were PERFECT!!! The omelet was worth every penny, and that biscuit was stick to your ribs good. Looking forward to trying lunch or dinner next.

    Absolutely love this place! Food is always hot and delicious. I wish I could remember the young lady’s name that works the register because she is wonderful! Top tier service. Friendly, polite, genuine. 100/10. Will definitely go back. Highly recommend.

    We went there for lunch and it was so good we came back the next day as well. Over the two days we had chicken, beef stew, meat loaf, black eyed peas, green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy, fried squash, corn bread, biscuit, and homemade pie. All the food was delicious and the owners were very friendly. Definitely recommend this old fashioned home cooking place for lunch.

    A little disappointing. Limited variety stressing a 1-meat,2 vegetable lunch special for $8.00. I had some excellent fried chicken, but my son’s chicken was a small portion and rather dry and overcooked. Vegetable were southern good. My wife had just vegetables and was charged the lunch special price. Service was a little slow and not very inviting. No one was wearing masks including the people serving. Open Wednesday through Sunday until about 2pm. To get above a three star, I would have to desire coming back.
