    Grandma's breakfast.
    Joan S.

    Haven't been to a Cracker Barrel in many years. Decided to go with hubby and Mom for breakfast. We were seated promptly. And, our server was extremely nice. I'm not a pancake or sweets breakfast girlie so I ordered the Grampa breakfast. 2 eggs, chicken fried chicken, biscuits and gravy. The side I chose was hash brown casserole. The biscuits were a bit hard but the gravy helped out a little. I did have to add lots of salt and pepper to everything...but not bad. Mom had pecan French toast with sausage. It looked overcooked to me. She said it wasn't to bad. The presentation was not good. Hubby is boring and got mamas breakfast...2 scrambled eggs with 3 pieces of bacon and 3 pancakes. Thank goodness pancakes are filling because it only looked like 1 egg and very small thin pieces of bacon. Coffee was pretty good. Better than most places. The shop is amazing.

    Not even filled a quarter way

    I placed an order yesterday online for two meatloaf, lunch specials, and a side of deep fried pickles. My order was supposed to be done at 11:28 and when I arrived they were acting like I was at the wrong location and they didn't see my order. Then they said they found my order, but it was just coming out of the oven and was very hot. I finally got my order around 11:53 AM and the food definitely was not hot. It was lukewarm if that. The deep fried pickles were terrible, they were very salty and ended up making us both sick. We both had really bad stomach aches all night long, I also asked for some pickled ranch on the side and they barely put any in a cup. It was filled a quarter of the way. The meatloaf was not very good. They did not put any gravy on my mashed potatoes. I don't think I would want to return to this location.

    MMMMMmmm! Love me some Cracker Barrel! My mom and I LOVE this place and it is our favorite for breakfast. We got two different platters and shared it. So many delicious flavors! Their biscuits and homemade gravy is so savory and tasty! Their ham, bacon and sausage are very flavorful. The eggs were good and the casserole is my favorite!! The fried apples are a nice sweet treat. I can't leave out the pancakes! I would have to say out of all the breakfast restaurants I have been to, Cracker Barrel has the BEST pancakes around. They are so fluffy, buttery and have a nice exterior crispy side to them. YUM! The service has always been great here. The restaurant itself is clean and cozy. I also like their table game they have to enjoy while waiting for your food to come. We'll continue to be repeated customers.

    Meatloaf, green beans, Brussels Sprouts N' Kale Salad

    12/27/19 My friend and I came to have a late lunch here. They didn't have a special for Friday per their daily specials board. I ordered the meatloaf and my friend had the fried chicken tenders. The food took a while to get to us, but it was still decent. My green beans and mashed potatoes weren't warm enough, but I was too hungry and on a time constraint to complain. The waitress kept forgetting things we would ask for, but was nice and apologized a lot. The rating is strictly for the time, food, and service provided. This may have not been my best Cracker Barrel experience but it won't defer me from returning to other locations.

    Unfortunately it's seems Cracker Barrel has lost any of its luster. I think that every time I go I'm hoping it gets better but it never does and I need to stop wasting my time and money. First this location does have lots of employees working which is good. What's not good is when you have lots of servers and you don't get orders taken quickly, have water brought to your table, ask if your meal was ok, bring extra napkins, mess every order up that was taken and so many other negative things. Where I was sitting, I could see clear into the kitchen and saw the large amounts of food on trays sitting on the counter ready to go. I saw items, including ours sitting there for 15 minutes. By the time we got our food it was lukewarm at best. The gravy in the dumplings was like water and was unappetizing. The sausage was dry and the kids Mac n cheese was almost cold and lacked any flavor. Also, the response from Cracker Barrel is an automated one as it popped up seconds after I left review or they get that many complaints.

The waitstaff was friendly, helpful, and genuinely attentive without hovering. We started with drinks: blueberry mojitos and sangria. Both were fantastic. The flavors were perfectly balanced, refreshing, and it was clear they were made with real care and attention, not just poured and sent out. For appetizers, we ordered the chips with guacamole and salsa. We weren't expecting the chips to come out hot and clearly fresh from the fryer, but wow, perfectly crisp with just the right amount of salt. The guacamole tasted fresh and clean, and the salsa had a great balance of heat and flavor without overpowering anything. I ordered the birria tacos, and they were outstanding. The meat was incredibly well seasoned, tender, and full of flavor. You can tell when food is prepared by someone who truly cares about what they're making, those kinds of flavors can't be faked. The Cobb salad was equally impressive: fresh ingredients, a perfect portion size, moist chicken, and a dressing that tied everything together beautifully. One of the nicest surprises was learning that Urban Kitchen supports the community through Meals on Wheels. It's always great to enjoy a meal knowing the restaurant gives back. The only downside? We live six hours away. That said, we will absolutely be back the next time we're in the area. Highly recommend!

The person that seated us also was running food and ensuring tables were kept clean. Since it had been so long since I dined here, the menu appeared smaller. I appreciated that our server Adam explained some of his favorites. The cocktail that I got was excellent. The cornbread appetizer was huge. I went with the gumbo and it was full of meat pieces. It was really flavorful. Adam was super friendly and made us feel welcome. Parking lot is tight, but they also offer valet. I highly recommend this spot if you are looking for some Louisiana style cusine.

    Visited Southern Cafe (SC) for Father's Day. Understood it would be a longer than average wait but…read moregiven our previous positive experience, thought it would be worth it. When we arrived, there was no one else waiting and I'd guess that only 75% of the tables had customers. Couldn't have been more wrong in our decision as we waited for over an hour post ordering before we actually received our meal. This is the longest we have waited for breakfast... EVER. Anyone with kids knows having kids sit still and wait with minimal sources of entertainment is hard enough, then add hunger to the equation and it's a recipe for disaster. What could have made our experience better? 1 - Be transparent about your delays upfront -- Empower your diners to make a decision around whether they'd want to wait or not given how busy you are. Don't continue to seat customers when your kitchen is severely behind and hope diners don't notice. 2 - A small gesture goes a long way -- It would have been nice for SC to offer a couple of biscuits given the excessive wait. 3 - Don't add insult to injury... by bringing butter and ketchup 30+ minutes before the meal arrives. It added to the frustration that even my 7yo remarked "what are we going to do with butter, we have no food". They offered more water even when all our water cups were clearly full. Don't really understand how more water would make us less hungry? Looking at another recent 1-star review, I can see the same pattern as our experience. This restaurant clearly doesn't fail gracefully on busy days... and they don't seem to care either. At the conclusion of our meal, we didn't even get the typical "how was your meal" question from anyone. I guess they already knew.

The chicken was delicious and the pancakes were out of this world. Similar to some of the other comments, it would be nice to first come in, sit down, get relax then have someone take your order when dining in. However you place your order at the front door and then can sit down. The customer service lacked tremendously from the youthful stuff(late teens/very early 20's) But I will say the most underwhelming thing about this experience was the building. Inside & out it was very primitive & just flat out old. I know they just moved from another location and looking to get their foot in the door. But hopefully a renovation is in the plans. The inside is a bit of an eye soar. Needless to say, I would come back if in the area because of the food. But I wouldn't go out of my way patronize them.

This place has gone through a number of makeovers over the years but it is decidedly a sports bar vibe where you enter the space and traditional restaurant in the back area. Overall a very casual and lively vibe. We waited about 15 minutes with a packed house and were seated in the restaurant portion in a very spacious booth. Our server was prompt, courteous, pleasant, and efficient--attentive but not overly so. The food was excellent with very ample portions at reasonable pricing with many options under $20. I will say they could skip the bread basket before your meal comes out and just put it into giving you a side with the sandwiches versus charging you $2 for each side added.

They also feature an extensive craft beer selection. I went with the seasonal Abita Bad Mother Shucker Stout, which was a fun nod to Mardi Gras and a solid stout choice for the occasion. For my entrée, I ordered the Mardi Gras Platter ($32.99). It included: * Choice of soup (I chose the seafood chowder) * Shrimp Creole * Jambalaya * Chicken Étouffée * Crawfish & Shrimp Monica * Broccoli The restaurant was busy, which is understandable for Fat Tuesday, but our food took quite a while to arrive. The soup was delivered at the same time as the platter. In my opinion, the soup should have come out first. Ironically, the seafood chowder ended up being the highlight of the meal--rich, flavorful, and well-balanced. Unfortunately, by the time I finished the soup and moved on to the platter, most of it was only room temperature. The items were layered and grouped together in a way that made it unclear what paired with what. The chicken was noticeably overcooked and lacked depth of flavor. It tasted as though Cajun seasoning had simply been sprinkled on top rather than developed into the dish. Overall, the platter lacked the bold, authentic Cajun flavor profile I was expecting. The Crawfish & Shrimp Monica was advertised as coming in a bowl but was served in what amounted to a cup-sized portion. The menu description listed Cajun Alfredo sauce, crawfish, crab, blackened shrimp, pasta, Parmesan cheese, and broccoli. After mixing in the Parmesan, I searched for the seafood components and found none--no visible crab, crawfish, or blackened shrimp in the pasta. I mentioned this to the bartender, who said they would bring some out to add in. A few minutes later, three Cajun shrimp were delivered. There was still no crab or crawfish. While the Alfredo sauce and pasta themselves were very good, the absence of the advertised proteins significantly hurt the dish. Had I ordered the Crawfish & Shrimp Monica on its own for $24.99 and received the same portion and lack of seafood, I would have been extremely disappointed. Overall, while the concept and menu sounded promising for Mardi Gras, the execution--especially at that price point--left a lot to be desired.
