I had just finished working a long day and just wanted to get a meal and return to a hotel room. I placed this order online from the parking lot then walked in to wait. I expected to wait 20 minutes which was fine because I love fresh hot food. I was greeted immediately upon entering and my food order was checked on. After a few minutes, I was informed of a shift change and also the person now responsible for my order. Waited a few more minutes and my order was packed and ready to go... all in about 12 minutes. Better time than expected. I got to my hotel and the food was still hot and all was packed perfectly and delicious. I'll be visiting again soon for both the friendly service and food.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

The cornbread appetizer is pretty good, the brisket queso is a joke so dont get it. I really like the meatloaf, and the casseroles, the chicken fried steak was tough and not tender at all and the Mac n cheese was okay. Their sweet tea is solid. The service was solid as well. Our waitress was friendly and on top of things, the manager of that place needs to do a deep clean on that whole place though for sure. Their pricing is really fair though so thats a plus! Overall I give this place a 7.1/10

First things first, waiter Mike needs a raise! Amazing service from him, on top of everything, extremely nice, very positive attitude. I don't think I saw him stop moving! Walked in to a completely packed restaurant, running like a well oiled machine. We sat waiting behind 5 or 6 families and were seated within 20 minutes or less. Very quick for a Sunday lunch rush. We ordered the Mushroom Swiss Patty Melt and the Blackened Tilapia. Both were at our table before we even finished the first basket of rolls. Which is saying something because I was inhaling them like it was the last thing I would eat. The Blackened Tilapia tasted wonderful, excellent seasoning, flakey, and just the right amount of fish taste. The Mushroom Swiss Patty Melt was probably one of the best burgers I've had in a very long time. The spread they put on it with the buttery Texas Toast made for an incredible combination of flavor. Last thing I would like to say is there is a review of 2 stars on here that had my laughing to hard. They said they picked their food up, put it in the fridge, waited a day, and then ate it. Said they were upset because it wasn't fresh! 🤣 Of course it wasn't! You waited a day to eat it! 🤣🤣 Anyway, definitely stop by here if you're looking for a pleasent meal!
