Nice intimate setting; Bernard Jr was our server and he was friendly and efficient. My daughter ordered 2 piece pressure fried chicken, sweet potatoes, greens and Mac and cheese she also had the fries potato wedges that they gave her complimentary ( she subbed Mac & cheese for fries) the only item that wasn't tasty was the sweet potatoes they were mushy and the molasses was so strong and over powering. By the way chef Jenard my daughter has an excellent recipe for sweet potatoes that she would like to share with you ; I had the chicken ceaser salad, very tasty except I wish the chicken was served warm on top with some large croutons. Anyway we plan to go back and try different dishes. Thanks for coming to grayson chef.. read more

I was definitely excited to try this restaurant. It's a very small, quaint spot, and we sat at the bar. The bartender/server was excellent and provided great service throughout the evening. I ordered the jerk peach lamb chops with greens and mac and cheese, along with an Old Fashioned, while my mom ordered the fried chicken with potato wedges and greens. The Old Fashioned was excellent. One odd detail, though, was that water was served in what looked like shot glasses instead of regular water glasses. We arrived right at 5 p.m. when dinner service started, but the food still took a while to come out. Unfortunately, the food itself was disappointing. My lamb chops had good flavor but were not served warm. The greens were overly salty, and the mac and cheese was just okay. The cornbread muffin, however, was very tasty with a light drizzle of honey. My mom's fried chicken was lukewarm and tough, which suggested it may not have been cooked properly. I also tasted a wing, and it lacked crispiness and had an overpowering flour taste. The potato wedges were also too salty. Overall, we were disappointed with the food quality. The restaurant has potential, but significant improvements need to be made in food preparation and consistency. Hoping they improve over time. read more

We loved the food and service! I had the mimosa tower and my spouse had the peach tea. That tea was simply amazing- so strong and flavorful! We got the peach jerk wings- crispy and flavorful, and that sauce is so elevated! So good. We also got the collard dip and it was so flavorful and creamy! Loved it. The cornbreads were very good- especially the strawberry. I had the sweet potato waffle which tasted good with just butter. Also, the sweet potato soufflé was so very tasty- not too sweet. We also had the pressure cooked chicken with the thai chili sauce. That sauce was also magnificent- so complex and great! The workers were very pleasant and fun- they took very good care of us. We even got to see Chef Jernard while we were there which was very exciting! It was an excellent meal and we wish we lived closer so we could try more of the menu soon. read more

After seeing ads on social for this new brunch spot, my family and I decided to try. The food wasn't to our liking. It took almost an hour before our food arrived to our table. The meat and fish were seasoned but the sides were not good. The grits were gritty, not smooth and creamy and arrived cold and congealed, the mash potatoes were soupy, the Mac n cheese was very dry with very little seasoning and a cheese sauce on top that was flavorless. The cornbread was very dry and tasted like a box version. The sweet potatoes were very dark in color and had too much cloves. Also, the chicken wings were undercooked. We expressed to the manager our dislike of the food and why. She became a little argumentative and stated that our opinion were a letter of taste and everybody has different taste. She did provide a discount on the meal, she apologized, and offered to remake some dishes but we declined. Because anyone can have an off day, I may give it another try in the future. read more

Met my bestie there for brunch yesterday eager to try a new place. It is in the Railyard in Grayson but it is kinda difficult to actually find. Upon entering it's smaller than I expected but that's what I get for having preconceived notions. It is warm and inviting and had many smiling eager faces greeting us! We explained to our server that we would be catching up and since it wasn't very busy at 12:30 on this Tuesday would it be okay to take up her table for a couple of hours and she assured us that would be fine. Of course, within the last hour we had four other people checking on us to make sure we were OK so we'd have to go thru telling them the same ! Now onto the actual food... we both ordered the catfish that came with one side and I thought cornbread but neither of us received any cornbread, so I'm going to assume that it needed to be ordered at an additional cost. Since the 2 pieces of catfish and 1 side was $24 excluding tax & tip we didn't bother to inquire about the cornbread. Both pieces of my catfish were kinda small, one being slightly larger than the other but both were over cooked. I eat mine starting at the end and it was hard not crispy letting me know that it was over cooked. My friend started in the middle of her largest piece which was palm size and said hers was very tasty but another establishment we both enjoyed going to for catfish was much better, bigger and lower in price. Now my side was Gouda mac n cheese and after a couple bites I remarked that it had a odd flavor compared to other dishes of the same... my friend tasted it and said it was the gouda bc it wasn't smoked gouda and that seemed to be the only cheese except for the cheddar on the top. Her side was the collard greens and we both said that they were the best item between us both. My only regret was I had left my phone charging in my car so I didn't take any pictures. I truly wish this restaurant the best but I doubt that myself or my friend will go back. I look forward to seeing other reviews and should they be consistently high for the actual food then maybe I will.... time will tell. read more

Me and my mother came here for Mother's Day and had a reservation booked for 8:00 AM. When we arrived, we were told the restaurant didn't even open until 9:00 AM. At that point, every other restaurant nearby was already fully booked, so we felt stuck and decided to wait. What made the situation worse was the manager's response. Instead of taking accountability, she blamed the scheduling app and told us they "might not be able" to seat us, but we wouldn't know until 9:00 AM. After we waited over an hour, she then started seating people with 9:00 and 9:30 reservations before the group of us who had already been waiting there since before opening. That made absolutely no sense. The people who had been inconvenienced by the restaurant's mistake should have been prioritized instead of brushed aside. The manager was argumentative, dismissive, and not apologetic at all. It honestly ruined what was supposed to be a special Mother's Day outing with my mom. To make matters worse, once we finally got seated, the food was subpar and the menu was nothing like what was advertised online. This is supposed to be a brunch place, yet the only breakfast-style option available that morning was barbecue shrimp and grits. Waiting over an hour for a completely different and lackluster menu was incredibly disappointing. Overall, the experience was disorganized, misleading, and poorly handled from start to finish. They seriously need to do better. Only giving it a two star because they are harder to remove than one star I would honestly give this place a zero read more

The Mac and cheese and greens were delicious: A+. ordered the cinnamon roll brunch waffle and it was not good. didnt remind me of cinnamon rolll and presentation lacked. this is not a waffle worth $13 read more

Cornbread and Butter - This is the Cinnamon roll brunch waffle - Southern Near Me - Grayson, Georgia

As a fan of Chef Jernard's show, I was eager to try some of his creations. Unfortunately, my experience at Cornbread and Butter in Grayson on Saturday was very underwhelming. To start, the menu online was replaced by an opening weekend "limited" menu. Fine, but the process to post a new menu requires minimum effort. This is the type of minor - yet impactful - operational error I hope they can address going forward. We were the FIRST table seated after a computer outage delayed the opening. Our group ordered at 11:45am. We got a side of corn bread at 12:10pm. The first entree came to the table at 12:25pm...cold. It returned at 12:35pm. The second item came to the table 12:38pm. The last order came table at 12:40pm. At best, the dishes were average. Our server was polite, but clearly poorly trained. She took far to long to bring beverages or to acknowledge the significant delays. At one point it was clear that she was ignoring our table after sensing my frustration. The manager's excuse was that the waiter was "new". Given the fact that Saturday was only their second day open - EVERYONE, including the manager, was new. Additionally, the price points seemed excessive for a small Cafe in the suburbs. One might assume that the premium was associated with the Chef brand, and definitely not the food or service. I wish them luck and hope that they train their entire staff. read more

Cornbread and Butter - Southern Near Me - Grayson, Georgia

Food was excellent. Staff was very attentive and personal. We have been waiting for them to open and it was worth the wait.

Where should I start. This will be lengthy due to how poorly this experience has been. We sat down ordered the cornbread appetizer and dare I say it was a couple of small muffins. They were 2.50 each. With cornbread in your name, I would expect real cornbread with a beautiful presentation. Two muffins on a plate drizzled with honey that was advertised as honey butter (not even close). Our entree was 12 fried shrimp that had only 10 shrimp and yes, we counted. OVERCOOKED FRIED SHRIMP UNACCEPTABLE. Sweet potato souffle that had a pound of sugar per serving. NOT NECESSARY. I guess that is personal preference. Collard greens which I could not eat because they were full of meat. This was not stated on the menu. Creamed corn that simply not good. We have always agreed to give a new restaurant a second try, however that will never happen with Cornbread and Butter. I could not have been more disappointed with this place. Shame on you. Oh! I forgot to add we wanted to order cocktails, but the bartender had not arrived for the dinner hour. The waitress tells us she will let us know when they arrive. We told two people about our horrible experience and not a single person inquired and simply said we are sorry. Well, that sums it up. Good luck with your visit. This would be a zero-star if that was an option. read more
