I had a delightful and welcoming experience at brunch! They kindly offered my dog some water and made him feel included. The food was incredibly delicious and full of flavor! They really capture that authentic Southern taste here.

The food looked great, didn't it? Unfortunately, we waited three hours for this disappointing, cold, and overpriced meal. The gravy was quite good, but I can only imagine how much better it would have been if it had been served warm. There wasn't a single warm item on my plate. The bacon tasted like it had been made last week, and the cookies were so dry that I needed water after every bite. I managed to eat half of one cookie, and that was it. The fried green tomatoes were over-seasoned to the point where they tasted like a blend of my own spices at home, and I couldn't taste the tomato at all. I was really let down. The side dish I ordered (not pictured) was absolutely delicious—moist and crispy, but also cold. I won’t be returning to this place. After paying $15 for parking and then waiting three hours for this subpar meal, I feel it wasn’t worth my time or money. I’d recommend saving both and just going somewhere else, like McDonald's; at least the food there won’t be ice cold.

I visited for brunch on a Sunday and had to wait nearly two hours in total, even though we were on the list in advance. The food was incredibly delicious, but the service left much to be desired. Our waiter seemed to avoid our table, ignoring eye contact and pretending not to hear us when we called. If I decide to come back, it will likely be for takeout.

One of my new favorite stops on road trips! The staff was fantastic, and the restaurant had a charming atmosphere. The food was absolutely incredible! I highly recommend making a reservation in advance—it's definitely worth the wait!

The prices are reasonable, and the food was excellent. However, be prepared for a long wait; it can feel a bit out of control at times. They do offer outdoor seating for guests.
