Stopped here in a whim while in the area and now looking forward to our next visit. Portion sizes…read moreare ridiculous... so large. Lunch specials are amazing, even include your drink. Nice place to sit and eat or they offer carry out. Staff/servers were great!!! Very attentive and helpful. It was our first visit and we got a free dessert, plus they ask if you'd like a drink to go. This place is a little hidden gem! My husband got a teriyaki chicken bowl and that came with two sides! The potato salad was so good I got a side to go! Definitely give this place a try.

Arrived to celebrate my Birthday. We were seated promptly and the customer service was beyond…read moreamazing. We were given time to look over menu and see what were the options they suggested favorites that they have tasted themselves as well as customer acquired favorites. I highly recommend them for your celebrations or special occasions. They have a very nicely decorated event room. They were very accommodating to our guests even when all the guests did not arrive with us. It is definitely a place I will continue to enjoy and go back too.

While heading to the laundromat, I stumbled upon a food truck, feeling hungry, decided to give it a…read moretry. When I approached the window to place my order (note: it was later in the day), I discovered that many of the sides were already sold out. (Here is a great place to insert a tip for anyone interested: arrive early). They did have French fries left, but since I'm not much of a french fry person, I decided to just go for a pork chop sandwich instead of their pork chop dinner which came with two sides. The staff was very accommodating and even adjusted the price for me as a pork chop sandwich is not on their menu. Great customer service and a good way to keep customers. I also got the chance to chat with both the man taking my order and the cook. They were genuinely friendly and willing to answer all my questions, even though some were more about the food truck than the food. Really down to earth people. Peering inside the truck while we talked, I noticed that everything looked clean and organized, which hey, is reassuring when you're eating out of a truck :). Initially, I thought that it was taking a bit long to get the pork chop sandwich, that is until I learned that, it's because everything is cooked fresh. It was so worth the wait. When my sandwich was ready, it smelled and looks so good that I couldn't resist taking a bite right away. That single bite turned into several bites because it was just that good. The pork chop wasn't breaded, and it was oh so good. I found myself wishing I had bought two. For the size and taste of the pork chop, it was absolutely worth the price. One thing to note is that their open hours aren't posted on the truck. You have to check Google to see when and where they're available. They explained, that they often cater and can move locations, although their usual spot is the tractor supply parking lot. So no before you go. Besides pork chops, they also serve other soulful dishes like fish, chicken, mac & cheese, collard greens, string beans, candy yams, and more. I can't wait to try some of their other offerings next time they're open and I'm in the area.

And I did like the fact that the food was cooked to order so it was very fresh. I did not visit the restroom so I can't speak to the status of the cleanliness. The soda fountain could have been a little cleaner. Everything was very sticky, and the tray was overflowing. The tables and around the tables were clean.. The hush puppies, biscuits, and the macaroni and cheese were the best I've ever had from a fast food restaurant. As for the chicken, it smelled amazing. Unfortunately, from my taste, I found it very salty and greasy. The chicken was well flavored, but it was just way too salty for me I also tried their banana pudding and unfortunately, once again, at least from my taste, it was lacking the right flavors. I did try their honey butter chicken biscuit sandwich I found that to be delicious So for that alone, it's totally worth a trip. I did forget to take a picture of banana pudding and the honey butter biscuit sandwich

I've only tried the chicken and waffles, but they never disappoint.

I love bread pudding, but this one just wasn't my favorite. It wasn't bad it just didn't quite hit the mark for me. The café itself is small, cozy, and welcoming. They have a small bar area, indoor seating, and a customer restroom that's tucked away in the back. When I stopped in, there were several people dining in, and it had a relaxed, homey atmosphere. Overall, I'd definitely recommend Down Home Cafe, especially if you're looking for a comforting brunch or a laid-back Sunday meal. I'll definitely be back for those chicken and waffles! Oh! Open parking!

I chose lunch and order fried okra for an appetizer and a meatloaf lunch entree with 2 sides for my main. All delicious! The okras were fresh and fried nicely and came with a tasty sauce for dipping. The meatleaf came with my choice of mashed potatoes and cole slaw. The meatloaf was one of the better meatlofs I've had at a restaurant in recent memory. The sides were also very good, with the slaw being perfectly prepared. I had. O room for dessert but I might return for either their bread pudding or their banana pudding. Overall, good southern-style food, good service.

There was a woman (maybe a manager or owner) who walked around to every table asking if things were okay. My husband ordered the pasta with marinara (not realizing it came with cheese- he had to send it back, he does not do dairy or meat). They should note that cheese is on it on the menu. I ordered three chicken wings (they were oversized - not my preference), potato salad, black eyed peas and one piece of cornbread. The chicken lacked flavor. It was just big and kind of greasy. The sides were fine. Ordered a piece of sweet potato pie to go and that was fine. The jazz contained a lot of talking. It was nice when they started playing line dancing music and there was a small area to dance. The dancing wasn't offensive or in the way...it was just right. Then came more talking. And advertising of a cruise, etc. It was okay, but I wish they played more music than talking. The same night, the restaurant attempted to charge me for a missed reservation fee ($5 per person). Luckily, I keep my AMEX locked. Weird, I gave my name to the hostess upon check-in. Wonder if that's happened to others. All-in-all, it was an okay experience. Not opposed to trying the restaurant again, but not necessarily rushing to get there.
