The place was packed when we arrived on a Saturday around 11am but her patience with each table was commendable. We waited only about 15 minutes to be seated (Small dining area) and our food was out within 20 minutes of ordering. I recommend this place for your next breakfast or brunch outing.

I order the baked chicken meal for my mom (who is wonderful cook in her own right) and she loved the homemade freshness and flavor of the food. Of course I had to taste everything and I agree!!! I would have though my mom had cooked that meal!!! Now ... on to the steak and cheese... can I say that it was creamy??? Well, the cheese mixed in the meat gave it a creamy taste that was sooooooo good. I'm sitting here writing this review and literally salivating. Support this business and became a fan!!!

Conveniently located in Ettrick and a block from VSU campus sits a delicious jewel. I order the…read morechicken salad sandwich with pasta salad. I was tempted by the selection of various cakes and choice a delectable favorite of mine, vanilla with chocolate icing. I was impressed with the taste and thickness of the chicken salad sandwich. The pasta salad was freshly made and appropriately sized. This was an excellent choice and selection. There is plenty of parking and handicap assessable. This establishment is also child friendly and take out ready.

Okay, I stopped by tonight and really liked it. It honestly felt like grandma's cooking…read more The potato salad was creamy and not overly chunky. I'd give it an 8 out of 10. I also got wings, and from what I understand they come plain without sauce. The wings were good though, fried perfectly. Definitely a 10 out of 10. **Did get hot sauce & ranch on the side. I also ordered a pork chop sandwich, which was a little disappointing. I'd rate it a 6 out of 10. The pork chop itself was fine, but when I was asked if I wanted lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise and said yes, I expected more than what was on it. When I opened the container, it barely looked like anything had been added and I had to lift the pork chop to even see it.

My husband and I came here while traveling because he wanted a little mom-and-pop place. Perfect…read morechoice! It is a little quaint diner in the middle of downtown Petersburg, Virginia. I looked up the history on Google because I was curious about how old this diner was. This little diner has been open since 1920 and in its current location since 1939. We both ordered the country-style steak. It was excellent. Service was also very good; the waitress was very attentive to us. If we ever ever driving up this way again, I would definitely visit this place again in the future!

The food is good. The grits and greens are made with water so it's a little more runny than I like (I like my grits made with milk). The potatoes pancakes are always good, definitely a staple. I also ordered the biscuit and gravy, I will say this was not a favorite of mine. The gravy wasn't a smooth consistency and again made with water vs milk. The eggs and bacon, are just that. I ordered my eggs over medium they came out more so over well. Overall I like the Dixie, I go back every now and then. The inside feels and looks like your typical diner. It has pictures all over the walls of its past so that's pretty cool.

I placed a pick-up order and I can see why the reviews are a bit mixed. The customer service was…read moredecent, so no complaints there. However, the food was another story. I ordered a white pizza (added chicken), along with fried pickle chips and buffalo wings. Here's where I got confused: I thought the fried pickle chips would be like any other normal/crispy fried pickles, but instead, I ended up with pickles that had a soggy coating. I wasn't a fan of the wings either; they were overcooked. When you think of wings, you usually imagine them slathered in sauce (unless it states otherwise), but these were just fried chicken wings. Maybe I had the wrong expectations, but they just didn't do it for me. The pizza was okay, so I won't complain.

FIRST THINGS FIRST: This is not a "quick bite" kind of place…read more I can only assume it is a man and his son working the place. All food is made to order so be prepared TO WAIT. So, don't come up in here going "well how long is it going to take?" They didn't forget about you. Service came out to apologize and to give updates. When the food came out it was HOT and exactly what I was expecting. And more importantly it was delicious. We will be back. So go try this place in what I believe is the old Carringtons music store but don't be a jerk.

I used to live in Petersburg when I was younger and I've been to restaurants close to here but I've…read morenever gotten the chance to try out this place. Interior (8/10) - The inside looks good but the chairs at the glass tables were a little too tight for me so I decided to sit at the bar which was a good choice. The chairs at the bar felt a little wobbly but I didn't mind. I sometimes drive past this place during the night and it's always packed so I guess it's best for a post work visit. Service (8/10) - The staff were extremely friendly and on top of things and it's a local restaurant so I not going to complain. Food (9/10) - and now for the main attraction, the food tastes pretty good. I had the Crab Cake Sandwich and it was seasoned and savory. My friend ordered mozzarella sticks and they were the best mozzarella sticks I've had so far, crisped and cheesy to perfection. And the crab dip was pretty decent, too creamy and juicy to my taste (No Diddy). Overall, this place doesn't come off as a place for dinner for me but it's the perfect place for Lunch. 8.5/10
