In town for our daughter's wedding, she had previously been in town preparing. She & fiancé tried…read moreseveral restaurants and loved Little Pugs. So we ordered a lot of food for rehearsal dinner the day before. All the meat and sides were quickly packed up when we arrived. Smelling food on the way to dinner was difficult. The Pulled Pork was amazing. Beans were great. Collard Greens were amazing - I managed to get one serving before they were gone! Mac & Cheese and Hushpuppies were great. Coleslaw was creamy and delicious. Plenty of sauces were provided. Not much was left after dinner. The only disappointment was the hot sauce. The owner said they made their own Ghost Pepper sauce. Well, several of our family love really spicy food, like Thai. Their sauce had very little heat, almost none. Kick it up a bit then caution people and make it hot!

My husband and I ate there two years ago for the first time ever after moving to the area and it…read morewas so good and the woman who runs the place was so nice.... BUT TODAY (8/27/26) my husband and I wanted to go there again for a lunch date and when we went there for lunch. We went inside to order and the sane woman was there but this time she seemed super unfriendly this go around. I ordered some fried corn nuggets and I reminded her that the last time we were there that she told me she liked eating the fried corn nuggets herself when a fresh batch was put it. Telling her that didn't jog her memory at all. We waited for our food and we were the only ones eating there and I glanced around... the tables and stools looked like they hadn't been wiped down in a while. We got our food and our bbq meat was not hot at all... barely warm! There was no smokey flavor to the meat and most of it was soaked in some type of vinegar sauce which was nasty tasting. Come to find out, it was their House Sauce. I was able to get some thicker bbq sauce only upon asking a man behind the counter, as there were no sauce bottles on the tables. While eating, I saw a large garbage can with an orange lid near the tables. It was so gross looking that I was definitely done trying to eat at that point. I felt that at some point they could have replaced that can with a nicer looking one. We spent $34 and it was not worth it. The customer service was zero, the meat was bland, and there was no atmosphere. We were not impressed and we will not be going back to this restaurant and it's under 2 miles from our house.

We had a patty melt and my husband said it was the best ever with a thick hamburger and thick texas toast with the best grilled onions. Not greasy. I had the small ribeye and it was cooked perfectly and flavored so well. A hot baked potato and green beans and a trip to the salad bar which was fresh and filled with anything you could want on your salad. Even fresh strawberries and a homemade apple salad! We ordered extra side to try the pinto beans and mac and cheese Our waitress was quick and courteous. The restaurant looks like it was an old cracker barrel but they said it wasnt. The name of the place was "box car grille " and the salad bar looked like it was in front of an actual box car from the railroad! Lots of railroad memorabilia all over! Clean too.

But Fresh Chef is a really great find. Sooooo glad we found it. And if I lived within 50 miles I would be here all the time. We started with an appetizer of crab and artichoke dip. It came to the table quickly which was great because we were hungry! Fresh crisp crackers and a warm tasty dip. The table next to us had a shrimp and grits bowl and all I can say is that it looked delicious. And the portions were huge. I had a black and blue salad with beef tenderloin. Best steak I've had ever! And I'm not an aficionado of blue cheese dressing this was thick and chunky and plenty of it on the side. My wife had a simple chicken salad sandwich which came with a salad and fries. I tasted it and was impressed by how flavorful it was. The menu is pretty impressive and everything I saw on other tables looked really good. I want to try it all.

I mentioned my hubby and I would be sharing. When she came out with three plates, I was worried she misunderstood, but she actually had them split the cherry cobbler and ice cream. Now that was very unexpected, but I loved it. Multiple people stopped by our table to remove finished plates and check if we need anything. The place was like an upscale diner. Cloth napkins, but tvs showing football games. A nice bar, but they ran out of grenadine. No cherries in the Shirley temple. The mint julip was well made. Beef and vegetable soup was great, but the beef was burger. Not what I expected, but the fresh corn in it was wonderful. Black and blue filet salad was fantastic. They did not skimp on the blue cheese, it had spinach, kale, tomatoes and onion. My kiddo had the special, flounder and crab cakes. She said it was decent. Hubby lived the gumbo. I couldn't do 5 stars because the appetizer plates were dirty. All of them. All silverware and glasses were clean, but there was visible food residue on the appetizer plates and that's a big disappointment. To be honest, as someone who likes to eat fresh food, the salad was is definitely something I would recommend.
