They were both good but the onion rings to me were the clear winner What to say about that burger? It was so juicy with so much flavor who would think that putting pulled pork on top of a half pound delicious juicy burger would even work with barbecue sauce, but it does!! What a taste sensation and sooooo filling!! Thank you for the special treat!! The service was amazing and friendly. Even though she was very busy handling walk ins like us and many take out orders she was amazingly efficient! The bathrooms were very clean and so was the dining area I loved the table codes above us on the wall. What a nice idea!

I was looking forward to eating some bbq here but was sadly disappointed. We went on a Friday night…read morearound 7pm and the place was empty. There was s few pickup orders while we were there. The place was simple and clean. We went to the counter and asked to see a menu. Surprising but they only have one bbq pork sandwich on the whole menu. So I asked if the cook made it himself and was it smoked bbq. We were honestly told he used to smoke ot but no longer does. We saw a few crockpots in the kitchen and decided not to eat there. My suggestion would be to remove the smoked from the name as it's hugely misleading if you don't smoke your own pork and only have 1 bbq sandwich on the menu.

What a fun place and Gunsmoke was on the television! We…read moreordered fried chicken that came with collard greens, sweet potato soufflé, 2 rolls, rice and gravy. All made by the same chef that's been there 16 years. The food was delicious and the fried chicken tasted like my mama's (which is a very high compliment!) $20 for two meals. We were there in October so Halloween was everywhere from tablecloths with pumpkin pictures to tall spooky looking characters scattered around. The service was great also. We enjoyed our time at Papa Tom's!

I lived a diet of Melvin Hotdogs and occasional cheese burgers. Some 60 years later I have continued to make Elizabethtown my go to on the way to Southport specifically for a good hotdog. I'm sorry but today it didn't happen. I'm not sure the owners are the same today as yesteryear. The lady was in a dire hurry when I gave her the hotdog order immediately telling the person beside her to prepare me two hamburgers. I received the order and chose a booth to enjoy the tradition. The hotdogs were cool, the mustard, chili, & onions were dabbed in the middle leaving the remainder nothing but a dog and bun. It was a hurry up, take you order and move. It was 3pm and no line. Please, take heed to remember the heritage of Melvin's and go back to treating customer as the valued persons that have kept Melvin's a corner post of Elizabethtown. Unfortunately I no longer feel welcomed as I was for close to 65 years.
