Their portions are enough for at least 3 people. The choices were many and hard to make, but we had perfectly seasoned green lima beans and field peas with snaps, succotash with tomatoes and corn and okra, creamy red beans, and all 3 of us got the mac and cheese. Because who wants to share their mac and cheese? Not this girl! It is so exceptional. Everything was really yummy, but the mac and cheese was the best! The people who work there are all sooo pleasant and friendly. We ate in their dining room, and it was spotless and clean. I kinda wanna keep this a secret (although I've heard they get really busy sometimes), but y'all should really give Mary's a try if you like REAL southern comfort food.

This place is horrible. I Went there this past Friday while working at a local high school and…read morereally did not know of any other restaurants in the area. I ordered the two piece whole catfish, turnip greens, cheese grits and onion rings, I was going to order their crab bisque but, my waitress advised against it. That should have been my warning shot. The catfish tasted like strong ammonia and the flesh was extremely mushy. Hands down the worst catfish that I ever ate as it did not taste safe at all. I never even tried the Turnip greens as they looked very old and the grits looked no better. Woke up Saturday to extreme stomach pain that the led to 36 hours of bathroom issues that took me out the whole weekend. I don't know what the problem is at this place, but apparently fresh seafood is not on the menu.

Best burger I have had in a long time. We were in Monroeville for TKAM on Friday and unfortunately…read moreMonroeville, as much as I like the town and its friendly residents, suffers from the lack of good restaurants. So we had to eat before arriving on Friday (we had a late lunch at David's Catfish House and it was very good). On Saturday we drive out of town and found South Forty on our way back to Mobile. It was about 10:45 am and a little early for a burger, but after reading the reviews decided to go for it. Glad l did as it was in many ways as good or better than our favorite burger places in Mobile. So if you find yourself on the way to Monroeville stop in at South Forty, you will not be disappointed.

I wasafter I had sat down and ordered because she didn't want my service dog in the restaurant…read more She said they have the right to refuse service to anyone. I showed her my ADA card, and she went and called the owner who told her that he/she was going to post on their website that no animals are allowed including service animals. I told her that was illegal and they are breaking the law, and she became quite nasty and said "We have the right to refuse service to anyone." Again I attempted to educate her on the legalities regarding service animals and she said to me "Are you going to stop talking and listen to me?" When I asked to let us eat in peace and please get away from our table, she became irate and told us to leave that she was going to call the owner. I'm very well aware of my rights regarding my service animal and that she will hear from my attorney. As I was leaving and she had the owner on the phone, she then tried to tell us we didn't have to leave. After she had been rude, non compliant with federal laws, and called attention to my elder sister and I, staying was not conducive to her ugly attitude. She NOR the owner obviously seem to feel federal laws protecting people with disabilities apply to them. Perhaps a bit of insight will keep them from discriminating against someone else. I WILL indeed be contacting my attorney as well as the Justice Department, and the State of Alabama's ACLU. Under Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), private businesses that serve the public must allow service dogs to accompany their handlers into all areas where customers are normally allowed. What Businesses Must Do Allow Access Everywhere: Service animals must be permitted in public areas, including restaurants, grocery stores, and hotels, overriding standard "no pets" or health department food-service rules. Treat Equally: Businesses cannot isolate customers with service dogs, charge extra fees, or demand pet deposits. Accept Only Dogs (and Miniature Horses): Under the federal ADA, only dogs (and in specific guidelines, miniature horses) trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability qualify as service animals. Emotional support animals are not protected. What Businesses Can Ask When it is not obvious what service the animal provides, staff may only ask two questions: Is the dog a service animal required because of a disability? What work or task has the dog been trained to perform? Staff cannot ask about the person's disability, require medical documentation, require a special ID card or certification, or ask the dog to demonstrate its task. I called back at closing time to obtain the owner's name and phone number, she refused to give me either and told me I had to call back in the morning. She then proceeded to tell me "I'm the rude woman that spoke to you and when I once again attempted to explain that service dogs are protected by Article 3 of the American Disability Act, she started again arguing. At this point, I played the phone down and walked away not wanting to argue with her or to be rude and hang up on her. Its unfortunate that this lady feels she can not follow the laws she doesn't want to, and that the owner seems to feel their business is exempt from federal laws. Robyn Belknap 8/24/2026
