We were not bothered by that but some people may certainly be bothered by it. The waitress came to the table and asked if we needed a menu, she brought silverware and asked us what we wanted to drink. It appeared there was one waitress and one cook. We brought our drinks and asked what we wanted to eat and I said I wanted to pancakes with bacon and the I said are you sure are pancakes are really large as she motioned to about the size of a plate. I said yes I want two of them and I could have done without the eye roll at not taking her suggestion. The hubby ordered biscuits and gravy, eggs, hash browns, and sausage. She brought out our meal and asked if we needed more coffee or tea. It was a good breakfast and there was plenty of food to eat. We left there satisfied and I am sure when we are back in the Celina, Tennessee area we will stop in here again.

We came back to Lisa's Fifth Street Diner, and I'm happy to report our first visit wasn't a fluke!…read moreIf you're looking for good old-fashioned diner food with portions that make you wonder if they're trying to feed you for the rest of the day, this is the place. This time we put both breakfast and lunch to the test. The breakfast came loaded with eggs, crispy hash browns, a serious pile of bacon, biscuits and gravy, plus a blueberry pancake that practically needed its own ZIP code. The biscuits were fluffy, the gravy was creamy and peppered just right, and they definitely weren't stingy with the bacon. We also tried the fried fish with mashed potatoes, baked beans and coleslaw. The fish came out golden and crispy, and the sides were exactly what you'd hope for from a hometown diner simple, hearty comfort food. And here's a little insider tip worth knowing: Fridays are dessert day! If the banana pudding is available, GET IT. Seriously. It is absolutely amazing and worth saving a little room for which is easier said than done with these portions! One thing worth knowing before you go: come hungry! The portions are generous, and this isn't one of those places where you leave wondering what you're going to eat afterward. Just as important as the food, the atmosphere still has that friendly, small-town diner feel we enjoyed the first time. Good food, good portions, friendly people, and no need to dress fancy, just bring an appetite. Our original 5-star review still stands. We'll definitely be back... although next time I may need to fast beforehand!

The little white building on 4th Street still wears its vintage RC Cola sign like a badge of honor, and the moment you push open the door, that familiar sizzle of burgers hitting the oil hits you like a hug from your childhood. We slid onto the stools at the old horseshoe counter, the same one I remember from when I was a kid, and watched the magic happen right in front of us. Patties kissed with bread for that impossibly soft center, fried in the shallow oil until the edges turned perfectly crisp and golden. My cheeseburger arrived "unsquoze," glistening and glorious, layered with that signature tangy sauce, crisp pickles, and onions that somehow make everything sing. One bite and I was twelve years old again--only this time I got to share it with my own family. The new owners have kept every bit of what made Dovie's legendary. Same perfect burgers. Same simple, soulful menu. Same feeling that you're exactly where you're supposed to be. My kids devoured theirs with the same wide-eyed joy I used to have, and we left with full hearts and fingers still a little greasy in the best possible way. Dovie's isn't just a burger joint. It's a living piece of Tompkinsville history that still tastes like home. If you've never been, go. If you grew up on these burgers, go back. It's every bit as wonderful as you remember.
