    We broke down just outside of DeFuniak Springs and had to have our vehicle towed. Since we were…read moresuddenly without transportation, we booked a room at the Holiday Inn and were trying to figure out how we were going to get something to eat. We decided to order from Sweet Southern Comfort, but because their online ordering and delivery system was still fairly new, we ran into a few issues getting the order placed. I ended up calling the restaurant several times, and every single time, Garrett answered the phone. He was incredibly patient and helpful. He never sounded frustrated or acted like we were bothering him. Instead, he calmly worked through everything with me until we finally got our order placed. By that point, we were extremely relieved because it had been several hours since we had eaten, and we were definitely ready for some good food! Shortly after placing the order, we received a text with a link that took us to Uber's tracking system. It showed our food being prepared, then showed that a driver had picked it up. About 20 minutes later, however, the order suddenly showed as CANCELLED. We couldn't believe it. I want to make it very clear that this was NOT an issue with Sweet Southern Comfort. The restaurant had prepared our food and handed it over to the Uber driver. The problem occurred after the driver picked it up. At this point, I called the restaurant yet again, and Garrett answered. He confirmed that the driver had picked up our food about 20 minutes earlier, exactly as the tracking information had shown. He was clearly upset that this had happened and kept apologizing to us, even though none of it was his fault. What happened next is the reason I felt this review needed to be written. Garrett didn't simply apologize and tell us to contact Uber. He personally had our entire order made AGAIN and then got in his own vehicle and drove it to our hotel himself. And somehow, he went even further than that. While he was on his way, Garrett actually called us and asked if there was anything we needed him to pick up from the store since he knew we were stranded at the hotel without a vehicle. That kind of customer service is almost unheard of anymore. Garrett took a situation that could have ended with a very frustrated and hungry family and completely turned it around. He treated us like neighbors instead of customers. He had absolutely no obligation to remake our food, personally deliver it, or offer to stop at the store for us, but he did all of those things simply because he wanted to make sure we were taken care of. If it hadn't been for Garrett going so far above and beyond, we probably would have ended up making dinner out of whatever snacks we could find in the hotel lobby. Instead, we were able to sit down to a full meal -- and the food was absolutely PHENOMENAL! If you order from Sweet Southern Comfort, I highly recommend the Burnt Ends and the Bayou Fettuccine. Both were fantastic! Great food is always worth recommending, but when you combine great food with someone like Garrett who genuinely cares about his customers, that makes a restaurant memorable. Thank you, Garrett, for taking such good care of us on what had already been a very long and stressful day. Sweet Southern Comfort absolutely earned our business, and if we are ever back in DeFuniak Springs, we will definitely be eating there again!

    Stopped for lunch. It's over 100 F today and they're on a limited menu; seems like an issue with…read morethe electricity, but the food we got was delicious. My husband ordered a fish Po' Boy and I got the smoked tuna dip from the appetizer menu. Both meals were delicious. The catfish was perfectly cooked, veggies were fresh and the bread was on point. The tuna dip had just enough Cajun seasoning and the dipping bread was nice and warm. Staff is friendly and helpful and the dining room and restrooms are clean and nicely decorated.

    I had forgot what an awesome place this was! Tonight we had a Birthday celebration. Great food,…read moreatmosphere, service and dessert! The Carrot Cake was Perfect! Blue ribbon quality! I couldn't believe the amount of food we got for the money! And it was real food, not processed junk! As a southerner...the sweet tea was perfect! Hamburgers were cooked to order, homemade fries, taco salad and carrot cake! Then after our meal, chatting & celebration, we went next door to play several games of billard pool! No drinking, no smoking, no cussing! Plus country music to listen too! Clean bathrooms, dining room and even the pool tables were in fantastic condition! They had many different pool sticks, so no matter if you want a light weight or heavy cue, they have one just right for you! Afterwards, I had the opportunity to step in to the kitchen, absolutely the cleanest kitchen I have ever seen! Fantastic atmosphere, family oriented, kid friendly and some of the prettiest handmade dollies you have ever seen! Betty & Joann have the best place in the county, if not the state to bring your family and friends for a night out! It's all about values! They have them, you get them! Unique to the southern way of life that I cherish and love....I will be back! Remember Friday & Saturday night outs? I had forgot how much fun they were. Thank you for doing what you do and I know God will continue to bless your business, as you have found the perfect combination of food, price, people, location and style!
