    Food is always good and fresh. The service is great as well. It's on old restaurant but well worth the visit.

Friendly & attentive staff. Great overall experience and then... Now l heard they were know for the cake slices so I had to try!!! There were 8 different homemade cakes in a display case at the front. I got the White Choc Raspberry - man I will definitely be back if for if for nothing else but to swing in town just to grab another slice!! Be Ready for sweet overload!!

When you arrive get your name on the list at the counter and stand around with the other folks waiting for a table and stare at the case of cakes that look so very good. I was there during the prime rib special that is two days a week and seems to be a popular choice from what I could hear. The other patrons were friendly while we waited. I'm not sure how long it took to be seated but when my name was called I was put into a booth. At the other tables and booths I noticed the waitstaff knowing the names of the other patrons so that is always a good sign. My waitress was friendly and gave some recommendations. I ordered a piece of cake to go first thing as I wanted to be sure I got a slice of the pig pickin' with the pineapple and mandarin oranges. Bread and hush puppies were brought out with my beverage. I was even offered more if I chose. I went with the filet mignon and shrimp as I couldn't decide between the two so went with an option on the menu to get both. I also got a baked potato and mac n cheese. The potato was huge. Both the filet and the shrimp were great as was the baked potato. I wasn't a fan of the mac n cheese as much so when I got full I was ok not finishing or taking that with me. I will be back the next time I am in Greenville, NC.

He needs to understand that he's working in the public and he's gonna face a whole lot of different situations that require compassion. August 24 at around 2:30PM, my 80-year-old Aunt was there along with others from her class to wind up her 60th class reunion. She was also accompanied by her daughters, which are her caregivers and they were there assisting the entire group. My cousin paid for her mother's dinner, but she and her sister opted not to eat. When the waitress asked to see the receipt, my cousin presented her with the receipt as requested & the waitress said it was fine, b/c they were not eating. At this my cousin proceeded to fix my Aunt's plate and assist the others. Shortly after the waitress asked for the receipt, Dennis, the manager, approached my cousin and asked to see the receipt. She responded, she previously showed the waitress the receipt , but Dennis said, " well now I'm asking for the receipt." She showed Dennis the receipt & he tells her they cannot sit in the restaurant unless a purchase is made. They explain the situation & points to the group of elderly people but he proceeds to say, "you still have to make a purchase". With that comment from Dennis, one of my cousin's purchased a soda; however, I think that some people just don't have compassion and common sense when working and dealing with the public. If you have a group of elderly people that need assistance and are being escorted by caregivers there should be no requirement to sit in your restaurant to make sure everything is OK. I also want to add that the only reason they stayed was because it was their mother's 60th class reunion and that's where the group chose to go . Do Better Dennis with customer service. If it were you in that situation, you'd want some to understand & show you compassion.
