    The ladies are always so nice. Food is good, solid American. Country-fried steak or chicken with real mashed potatoes and gravy. Not fancy or pretentious. Good value.

    Liver plate.

    Livers on Wednesday. Rockin! Perfectly fried and we received excellent service. Reasonable lunch prices.

    I am sure there is a market for cafeteria style food. This is it, we have not been to the new location (many years since the move). We were going to try uptown wings next door until we walked in and saw the everything menu of wings, Chinese food, burgers and more. Not sure what that was but, we left in favor of eating at Home spun. The restaurant layout design is as if they just piled different stlye tables against the walls for bussing, storage, etc. The menu on chaulk boards on the wall. The food immediately looked very heavy for lunch, and it was. I had the turkey and dressing and it came two sides, I selected of coleslaw and fried okra. It also came with rolls or cornbread, I chose cornbread. She had the vegatable soup with an add on grillled cheese sandwich. Now, looking around the customers appeard to be shall we say, mature ( I am 61 and felt young). I tell you this because the food had little flavor and little to NO seasoning whatsoever. The okra was fried but, also greasy. Very bland and heavy. Our waitress was friendly but, cleary did not speak english and only knew the bare minimum to get by. As another person was trying to explain to her and exclaimed "interpreter please". The food came fairly quick so likley made in bulk and served as ordered. As I eluded to earlier, the place was better than 70 % occupied so there is a market for it. Just not for us.

    I don't know why but my taste buds have been in a bad mood lately! Nothing seems to taste as good as it should, or even as good as I remember it last tasting! That being said, Home Spun has never really been that great to me anyway. I first visited this restaurant way back in 2005 when they were in a different location just down the road. A friend of a friend whom ate here all the time brought me for my first visit. I thought the food was okay back then, but I was not in any way motivated to return. Fast forward 13 years and I've passed the new location multiple times. They seem to have a healthy amount of business and I thought to myself: "why not give them another try?" So I did, and guess what? I still thought it was just okay! But in the interest of being a thorough yelper, I came back yet again for a third visit just a few weeks later and guess what? It was still just okay. Back in 2005 I had meatloaf that I would have classified as unremarkable. Can't remember the sides, but they too were nothing I committed to long term memory. On my second recent visit I tried the baked chicken, which I would rate 3.5 stars and the candied yams a 4! However, the creamed corn was highly disappointing, conversely earning it 2 stars. It was so creamy it looked like the porridge I imagine when I think of the story of Goldie Locks and the Three Bears. It was like soupy grits with corn bits mixed in. Still, the baked chicken and candies yams gave me a little confidence to return, hoping for a meal worthy of yelping about! On my last return visit I tried the catfish. I LOVE catfish, but don't particularly like catfish served whole. I would much rather have it as a fillet... but even that doesn't matter to me if it is properly seasoned and nicely cooked. This was not! Topping off the experience were "meh" mashed potatoes and "I could have done without them" sweet potato soufflé. SERVICE Not bad, but not great. I think this is the type of place that puts greater energy into serving their regulars. Everyone else is just extra roughage. NOTE: I was tickled by the hand written menu board with a few misspellings during one visit that no one seemed to notice. FINAL THOUGHTS It's a solid place to get a decent meal if you are looking for substance or if you're the type that "eats to live". Nothing is particularly awful, and nothing is particularly outstanding (at least not that I have sampled). But if you are the "live to eat" type like me, the food here is not going to make you crave multiple visits or give you that "OMG... this is so good" foodgasm experience. 3 stars overall because the pricing is so reasonable you can't really even get mad if you don't like something! 2018/71

    Not to be rude, but the owners are Korean and have a funny notion of what "southern home cooked" meals mean. If you lived your culinary life in a school cafeteria then I might give you a pass on that. Southern cooking, while not generally complex, is flavorful and accompanied by good hospitality - two things Home Spun lacked in spades. Slow, inattentive service. Low grade ingredients with a canned food texture and flavor. I really really wanted to support a local restaurant, but this place is far below the threshold for "good".

The restaurant wasn't overly crowded -- only a few tables occupied and a handful of people at the bar -- but service was extremely slow from the start. It took about 10 minutes for our server to greet us, and another 10 minutes just to receive waters after ordering them. My boyfriend and I ordered drinks (a Raspberry Collins and a Tropicalia), along with a pretzel for the table. The pretzel was brought out by another server, and when I asked for plates, they never returned with them. I then asked our server for plates, but they still never came. Eventually, I had to ask the host to find our server, and he responded that he would "try." When our server finally came back, I had to ask for plates a third time. Our friend was finally able to order his mixed drink, and we went ahead and ordered our meals as well. The food took nearly an hour to come out, despite the restaurant having very few tables at that point. My boyfriend ordered the Nashville hot chicken, which was extremely oily and lacked flavor. I had the hibachi bowl, which was decent. Before the food arrived, I ordered another Raspberry Collins and more water, which took about 15 minutes and again was not delivered by our server. The one bright spot of the evening was the bartender -- I didn't catch her name, but she was wearing a red Falcons shirt. She personally brought my drink to the table, promptly brought us waters when asked, and even cleaned up our table. Major props to her professionalism and attentiveness, because she was the only person who made us feel taken care of. Unfortunately, based on this experience, we won't be returning. Save your time and money and try somewhere else in downtown Sugar Hill.

Gray in the bar set the tone right away with a great round of drinks and friendly service. Once we were seated, Kevin took over as our server and absolutely delivered. Personable, knowledgeable, and attentive without ever hovering -- he made the night easy for all of us. Our guests came in from Vinings and Brookhaven and were blown away by the quality of the food and the ambiance. We started with the house‑special tartare, warm homemade rolls, incredible crab cakes, salads, and octopus -- every dish was fresh, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. The entrées were just as impressive. Our table had ribeyes, filets, pork chops, and scallops, and every plate was cooked perfectly. The sides were standouts too, especially the roasted carrots and the homemade gnocchi -- absolutely phenomenal. Dessert was a hit across the board, and the evening was topped off with a visit from Peril, which is always a pleasure and a great personal touch.

I've lived in Cumming since 2021 but never thought there would be a steakhouse there like this one! We were able to get a table for the 8 of us on the morning of, and was very excited since it was only a 7 mile drive from Windermere. Parking is a breeze, it's on the side of a strip mall on the corner of Meadow and Atlanta Hwy. It's beautiful inside. Lights were dimmed but not so much you can't see the menu or your fellow diners. Christopher was our server and he was really helpful, thorough, pleasant and absolutely friendly. My brother basically took stock of the menu and I ordered a cocktail to start. A big bottle of wine, and we were off! First off, the rolls made in house were so spectacular that I almost asked for more, even though I knew we were in for a great meal. Sea salt on top, hefty without being dense, with or without butter just delightful. Apps: both the GA and the Wedge salad to share, along with the grilled octopus and mussels. My nieces are 7 and 13, my nephew is 11 and they basically ate every last bit of the mussels. Back when I was 11 all I wanted was pizza and burgers. All of the apps were so flavorful- the mussel broth had garlic and nduja which gave it a nice kick. My regret was that I didn't take pics of these. Apologies! Entrees: most of the table got steak, whether it was filet, the American Wagyu, the ribeye. My brother ordered the chicken, I ordered the lobster bucatini and two scallops on the side. My niece had the gnocchi side as her entree. Sides: gnocchi with shittaki mushrooms, duck fat fried potatoes, grits, and asparagus. The gnocchi is a MUST, but the grits and others were close behind. For dessert: chocolate soufflé, bread pudding made in house with ice cream, a cappuccino creme brûlée, and for their birthdays a small individual passion fruit panna cotta for my parents. What a beautiful touch. I would put this place in with all the known steakhouses, service was unmatched, food was excellent and we didn't have to drive 35 miles to Buckhead or Midtown. Hats off to the team here, from the hostess who checked in on us, our server Christopher, to the team in the kitchen. I walked by the bar to use the restroom and it had no empty seats. This would be a place I'd feel comfortable coming alone to treat myself. Support small businesses!
