Just got back from a GA visit, went to Paul's on Thursday for fish - OH BOY !!!…read moreHave loved this place forever and we literally plan our departure time from Florida to make it there for lunch, but had never been on fish day. As usual, the food was excellent and I got to have some of that grand lace cornbread - that I can not replicate at home :( - but anyway, I also have to let you know about the hush puppies. I am the daughter of a fisherman so have eaten more than my share of fish and hush puppies in my life. These hush puppies made me want to fall off my chair. The outside was crunchy good and the inside was as light as air, literally melted in your mouth. I truly have never had such a good hush puppy and my Mom made some darn good ones. So plan your visit for a Thursday some time! They also have some new T-shirts with a print on the back of a painting done by Mrs. Paul's - great granddaughter I think is correct. Nice colors, really nice T-shirt. If you are in the Dawson area and you don't go here, you're really missing a great Southern food experience, as well as a place that's clean, staffed by nice people and is a great value. Ending this now, it's making me hungry and it's too late in the evening to start out for Dawson . . .

The service here is a little weird and jarring at first. I hadn't gone more than 10 feet through…read morethe door when I was asked "What'll you have to drink?" You just have to know the procedure, but it wasn't only me, a Northerner whose brain hadn't yet fully recalibrated for the local accent. Locals were confused too. Procedure is this: tell them your drink preference (I had water), pick up a tray, put it on the counter, pick out a main, three sides, a dessert, slide it down to the register, pay, and take it to your table. At that point do you begin eating? No! Remove your items from the tray and they come by and pick it up. Now begin! You may be thinking "Soup Nazi" from Seinfeld but I assure you it didn't feel that way. Just the quirky way they run the place. The waitress did warm up after I was there a while, came over to ask where I was from, etc. And to try to convince me to come back for breakfast! This is cafeteria style, with everything prepared ahead of time and kept warm on steam trays. So how do they keep that fried chicken so crunchy and delicious? Perhaps the best I've ever had, the batter so crunchy you could probably hear me eating from another room, assertively peppery, the large leg and thigh pieces perfectly cooked and juicy. (White meat also available.) My sides were lima beans, turnip greens, and yams. The highlight was the yams: super sweet but not in a bad way, balanced by good seasonings. The beans were fine, a bit salty. The only disappointment were the turnip greens, too finely chopped and overcooked. The portion sizes were decent. Also included is corn bread. Two choices: baked or fried. Never heard of fried so I tried that. Interesting but a little chewy and not so much corn flavor; next time I'd get the baked. Finishing this rather large lunch was a challenge for me but I managed, while taking in the local ambience. I saved the dessert for later. Dessert? Yes. I was also asked on ordering what I wanted for dessert. The only one that appealed was the red velvet cake (the others were a cobbler and bread pudding) so I got that. I assumed it was included but when I paid I saw it was not. $4; no big deal. It didn't look that good, a thin 1 inch slice tightly shrink wrapped on a paper plate. Looks were deceiving. The first time I actually liked red velvet cake, a light crumbly texture and cream cheese frosting that tasted of more than sugar. With the amount of frosting this tiny slice was quite filling and I'm glad it wasn't larger. All this for a little over $21. I think this was including tip but I'm not positive. Either way, great deal!

Some of the individuals behind the counter - I wasn't sure if they worked there or not - there use to be pride in going to work but not here - their appearance went right along with how the place looked overall - not good ( clothes did not look like they had been washed in several days), hoodies and jackets etc. The entire time we were there the dishes were not moved to the wash area and prep areas had not been cleaned ( some type of red substance all over them) but continued to be used - same knife to cut food was also used to cut open cheese package and cut toast. The food was saturated with melted butter the grits had no salt and about 3 tablespoons of butter on them (seriously - it never all melted there was so much) then there was the mystery chunks from the grill on my plate.... with every bit I just kept thinking "please Lord don't let us get sick" -I the think the server sensed something was wrong because she kept asking if we were okay and was the food okay.... needless to say - we will not be going back any time soon if ever. We were here in the evening about 6pm. It escapes me how individuals, managers and owners do not understand how the appearance of the employees and business itself go hand in hand with overall sustainability of a business.

People will literally WAIT to get their hands on this place and I'm glad we were part of those people today. Forget Cracker Barrel, forget IHOP. We went here for the first time since moving here in 2021 and I'm extremely happy we chose this place for breakfast. Hands down, THE BEST breakfast place I have ever had. As you can see, I didn't even wait to take a bite before taking a picture. The chicken biscuit was literally THE BEST chicken biscuit I've ever had. The chicken was juicy, not even close to being dry. I didn't need any honey or ketchup or anything. It was literally perfect the way it was. They make their biscuits to PERFECTION. The fluffiest, most flavorful, buttery, biscuits that just melt in your mouth. I can't even right now. Also got the Salmon croquet biscuit with egg. JUICY. Like how they make their food so yummy and juicy is beyond me, it's sorcery! Pleaseeee get me started with their scones because we got the apple cinnamon scone with icing on top. LORD HAVE MERCY. That wasn't just a scone. It was a scone sent down from heaven kissed by God himself. The SOFTEST most moist scone EVER. Dear God, please continue to bless the hands that make the food here because... wow, just wow.

Our drinks came out with our food. And that would be my only recommendation is either higher or more bar assistance. Or tell your weight staff to make more frequent stops to the table.

That said, I do wish there were a few more health-conscious options like grilled proteins, fresh salads, or even a soup or two. It would be awesome to see a bit more variety for those looking to eat a little cleaner. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, and the service was friendly and attentive. Overall, I'd definitely come back! It hits the mark for casual comfort food, and I'm hopeful they'll expand the menu to include more healthy and fresh choices in the future. Still giving it a 5 stars for delivering exactly what it promises.

As someone who has been reviewing for Yelp for a long time, this has to be the absolute worst…read moredining experience I've ever had. I mean that very seriously. On Saturday, 2/28, I came into the restaurant at 6:15pm with a group of 6. Looking around the restaurant, there were only 3 tables taken. The Hostess wanted to put us a table, but it wouldn't fit us all. We asked her where to sit and she told us to decide on seating. We had to suggest to put a table together and started to move it ourselves, then she helped. Just odd because we had no idea if they had a table to seat us. While waiting for the server, the table in front of us asked for to-go boxes and was told they only have the bottoms, no lids. She brought plastic wrap to cover their leftovers. They were not happy and left without a lot of their leftovers. Our service came out and was very sweet. She honestly was the nicest person at that restaurant and she deserves to go somewhere that she can make better money. She told us they only had beer and wine, but only a few on the wine list. Sometimes if it was asked for, they said they didn't have it. I stuck to a Coke. We ordered as follows: Me: Loaded Baked Potato (yes that's it.) Person 2: wedge salad Person 3: cornbread skillet Person 4 and 5 had burgers. One had cheddar cheese with everything on it. The other had everything BUT pickles. We waited about an hour for our food. Person 5's burger came out and the fries were cold. I'm not meaning lukewarm, I mean COLD. Like out a fridge. They hadn't even been cooked all the way. Person 4's burger came out without cheese. Both of those were sent back to get that fixed. Person 4's burger came back with a piece of half melted (what looked like) American cheese on the bottom of the burger and the burger was BURNT. I mean, hockey puck burnt. When the fries were sent back, we could hear the cook SCREAMING AND THROWING THINGS, yelling that we "weren't right" and he "had just took those up". The server even felt them and agreed with us. My baked potato came out hard. I couldn't really even eat it. It was hard, bland and it was covered in sour cream, even the outside. A runner came over to bring some salt and pepper and I asked her if she wouldn't mind letting us talk to a manager. Everyone there said I was polite in asking, as we just wanted to tell her what was going on, not trying to get anything free. When I asked, she threw her hands up in the air, slapped her hips, rolled her eyes and stomped away. The people around us even looked at her. They also could hear the cook yelling. We did see another couple send their food back as well while we were waiting. The manager comes over and when we tell her everything, she tells us she agrees and that she's working on getting better help, as we could see what she was working with there. We just asked her for the check and asked to go. We hear the manager try to talk to the team and the cook begins to scream and talk down to her. Then, he came out and stared at our table. If looks could kill, we would all be dead. The thing is- burgers there are $18. We didn't get anything hard to make but only the salad and the cornbread were fit to eat. They did comp our meal, but we continued to ask them to let us pay. Instead, we ended up giving the money to the server. She can only do what she can and she was so sweet. I do have multiple people who will attest to everything that happened. That was the whole experience. We walked outside and immediately went to get something else to eat. We came to the American because this was our first time in town and we had heard great things about it! Of course, we had seen it on TV as well, so we were very excited. The next night, another couple we knew went there and had the same experience. She was the only table in there and they still took over an hour and her food was terrible. This is absolutely so disappointing. The American used to be THE destination down here but now, it's the one everyone is telling people NOT to go to. We talked to our hotel host and they said they wished we would have asked because they would have told us to stay away. It's a shame. I really hope they can get some new people in there who care about food and making it good! I'd love to come back if they're able to improve and change my review. I do have 5 other people who are willing to attest to this, so as much as I wish it was an exaggeration, it's not.
