Service was great and it was good seeing the old time dinner. Everything on the menu is A LA Carte s check the prices, I over read some of them when I was ordering. Wife had the BLT and she likes her bacon extra Crispy and got it exactly the way she wanted it. Loved the sandwich and was very satisfied with it taste, She also got a chocolate milk cake and they still use the old time shake makers from back in my younger days. I had the Chili Dogs (2) of them with French fries, everything was perfect and the fries where very crispy and not soggy. Wonderful meal for both of us. enjoyed our time at Linda's just enjoying looking at the memorabilia as we talked and ate.

I don't usually post about bad experiences, but tonight was one of those nights where I'm hoping I…read morecan save someone else the frustration we experienced tonight. Tonight was our final attempt at giving Pings another chance, and unfortunately it was even worse than the last time. We called more than 24 hours in advance to let them know we'd be bringing a large party. During that phone call they were so appreciative, would be sure to let the staff know, and would be sure to have a table set up for us outside. Once we arrived today, that completely changed and were told "it doesn't matter what you were told" and were completely dismissed by the manager. The manger actually said, you can wait, or leave. We decided to wait, even though we were already treated horribly just trying to check in. After waiting over 30 minutes to be seated, we were then told they didn't care that we were a party of 12 -- we were not allowed to move the outside tables together so we could sit as a group. This was after our previous visit, where we waited over an hour just to be seated, and then another hour for mediocre food. We genuinely hoped things would improve after they reopened, but the service and food are somehow worse than before. Save your time and your money. There are too many great local restaurants that actually value their customers.

Like many folks in their very favorite place, we don't even bother to look at the menus anymore, as we know which one our favorite is. Service is prompt, friendly, and immediate; it's absolutely stunning to me, given the time that it usually takes to get a meal almost anywhere else, that you're served at fast food speeds and home cooking goodness. No reservations, it's show up, wait for an empty table, and set yourself down before they've even cleared it. Which will happen almost immediately, and immediately afterward your server will show up and ask what you'd like to drink while you look at your menus. In the very short time your meal takes to be prepared, your server will bring back your drinks, straws, and a pile of extra napkins, as this is definitely finger licking good food! About the only complaint we have is that it's not open every day, giving their hard-working staff time to recover from the rapid pace of people flowing through the inside and standing in line for takeouts. Can you tell we like it?

There are actually two different large rooms with tables. The menu has a great variety and the portion sizes were large. I had shrimp and grits. The shrimp were small but the grits were delicious. I enjoyed it but would try something else next time. My husband had the meatloaf and loved it. We all ordered different desserts. Order them early if you want a specific one because they definitely run out. There are pies and cakes. I had a very decadent piece of chocolate cake and got it to go. It was very rich and tasty. There is also an area where you can get meals and cakes and pies to take home.
