    We were traveling through Georgia today and we were very fortunate to find this local restaurant. What a great find! Justin's Place has a large porch and welcoming southern decor. I enjoyed the hamburger steak, which came with a fresh salad, a side, and Texas toast. Fantastic. And homemade red velvet cake for dessert. Our waitress was attentive and helpful. We also had a great talk with the owner and Justin as well. Highly recommend this gem!

    Sausage, egg and cheese sandwich.  It's heaven!

    Today was my 2nd stop at Justin's. Everything was just as good as the 1st time . If I could give them an extra star for consistency overtime, I would. Thanks for the great breakfast sandwich and coffee.

    The is the story of the owner's son and how the restaurant was named. Cool family

    I have been to Justin's Place a number of times and I am never disappointed. The food is really good and the service always comes with a smile. However, if I am being honest - the reason I go to Justin's place is for Justin and his dad Jim. Justin is one cool Dude. Every time I'm there his enthusiasm and pure honesty restore my faith in humanity. His dad Jim is great! But Justin steals the show. I almost always get the catfish it is always perfectly fried or blackened. The side are great and the pickle plate tops it off. I have never had a bad meal here nor have I ever been in when Justin wasn't in. I know I'll be back to Justin's place.

    The food here is wonderful. I've eaten steaks, hamburger steak, club sandwiches and hamburgers and it's always great. The people who work here are fantastic. I cannot wait until everything is back to normal so I can enjoy my meals in the restaurant but am thankful they remain open with the same high quality food for now.

    Wow this place is fantastic stopped for breakfast this place is in butler Georgia so don't pass it up if U are hungry

    Very nice small town restaurant. It is family-run and it is really like a southern version of "Cheers"--where everyone really does start to know your name! I've been to the one in Thomaston and that was very good as well, but this one in Butler is the flagship. The food is delicious and filled with southern charm. They have catfish from Thursday-Saturday and it is extremely flavorful. They are known for their beef, so don't be shy of ordering a big ribeye!

The home made soup was fantastic. Service was excellent. The second time the food was not so good. And last night it was a horrible experience ! However, great service and atmosphere but the so called fresh cooked Burger and fries with sautéed mushrooms. By the way, I specifically asked the waitress if it was freshly cooked to order because so many places keep pre-cooked Burgers in a warmer and quickly warm them up. A process easily identified by the dryness and inside temp of the meat. The small Salad was ok. The 2 lukewarm Biscuits were a little dry and undercooked. The sautéed Mushrooms were like shoe leather, dry and overcooked. The Fries were cold as was the dried up poor excuse of a Burger. Too bad there is no pride in the Kitchen! Hard to beat 5 Guy's for a good Burger. Having traveled just about everywhere in the USA. My review should be taken seriously. This place needs a Kitchen Manager that cares about all the food they put out. Not just the semi fancy gourmet that they try to produce there. If they got their Kitchen in order it could be a great destination restaurant !

    As good as Soul Food can be. We use to stop here about 6 times a year when traveling through now it…read moreis about once a year...and oh, how we miss it. We ordered two Meat & 2's and both consisted of A Big Fat Fried Chicken Breast, Black-Eyed Peas and Mac n Cheese. As always the chicken was cooked perfectly. Crispy on the outside with that perfect fried chicken skin and totally moist meat. The mac n cheese was very moist, not really runny and the texture was the perfect chew. No mushiness and no hard noodles. The black-eyed peas were out of this world good. They had a bit of spice in them and cooked good ole' Southern Style...cooked! We ate and ate until there was not more room. We gladly took our left overs for another wonderful meal. As we were leaving I said, oh, no "I forgot to take pictures. So I went and broke in line and took a couple of the cafeteria style food that everyone was so patiently waiting to be served. The staff works extremely hard. The restaurant is very clean. And the food is absolutely delicious. They do take togo orders and sometimes the line is out the door. They are closed on Saturdays. Highly recommend one try if in the area. Prices have remained relatively low while other places have increased their prices drastically. Our two meals which included drinks and tax was about $21. You can still buy a whole fried wing for under $2...it is $1.95.

    Went here after attending service at Marantha Baptist Church. This seemed to be a popular go-to…read moreafter service at the church, as I saw a lot of familar faces from the congregation and many of them had recommended the restaurant to us as well (or I guess not much is opened in the small town). The Silo is a small, meat and three, cafeteria-style restaurant, with a small, humble range of choices obviously cooked fresh. There really was only a plate option available with your choice of entree (fried chicken/meatloaf), 2 sides, cornbread, dessert (only pie that day), and sweet tea. The chicken was piping hot when we got it, tender and juicy but could've had a little more seasoning. The mac and mashed potatoes were decent, as well as the cornbread which had a nice bit of crust. I really liked the peanut butter pie I got, not too sweet and light enough to finish after a pretty heavy meal.

    Honestly, it was just okay for me. We went on 10/14/18 after attending a Marantha Baptist Church…read moreservice. They were doing buffet style, they may do that all the time, not sure. For $9.95 you got, an entree (Fried Chicken Quarter or Baked Spaghetti), 2 veggies (MacCheese, Green Beans, Rutabaga, couple of others), Peach Cobbler, biscuit/cornbread, and tea. For a bakery, a DEEP south one at that, you would expect the cobbler to be really good...not so much. It was all edible, but something was off, perhaps it just wasn't seasoned enough. Like there wasn't any sugar or salt in anything. Everybody was super friendly, and these folks were FAST! The restaurant was clean and comfortable. It's one of the only food options in town, and the only thing available on this Sunday.

The foundation is still there with the rooms and decor but with lots of tables set up, similar to hosting a gathering at home. Not only that, everyone here was really friendly! We really felt welcomed, and though the second time, service wasn't as outstanding, it was still good. I think they really nailed down the vibe of southern hospitality. For drinks, they have seasonal cocktails, which I think is fun, but I'm not around at a time where I would be able to chill and drink. I end up with a go-to sweet tea. Strong and sweet, that it kept me up, but not the strongest nor sweetest I've had. There's also complimentary bread that's mini muffin shaped and dense like a biscuit. It's buttery and salty, but I like it! Before coming, I saw so many things about the sampler, so I definitely wanted to get it and try out. Love the fried green tomatoes with the honey mustard. It didn't feel oily, and it held up pretty well when cut and dipped into sauce. The pimento cheese here is probably the best I've ever had, but I will admit that I have not had many (I tend to not like it). In fact, both these items stay on my mind enough that I do think about coming here more often than I thought I would. And this is just for the apps. The rest of the entrees are pretty standard. Some better than others, but that's due to preference. I haven't gone through the whole menu, but I do prefer their chicken to some of the other menu items. For their sides, I haven't seen or heard of some of them. I asked about them, and they were described p well, enough for me to not want to try congealed salad. I'm not a big fan of jello type things, but I did try the pear salad. Not for me. Absolutely not for me. I did really enjoy the collard green soup and sweet potato souffle though! They were great, esp the souffle. It was my first time having nuts in them, and I loved it so much. Everything else was alright, like I'm sure you've had or can make better mac. Overall, I'm glad to know this place because it's a good rec for the area if you're in the mood for Southern food. It's not a bad pick for vegetarians either, though they would only have appetizers and sides to pick from, but I liked them more than the entrees. There's a parking lot, and it's in a good location to see the rest of downtown Perry too.
