YUMMERS! We have been coming here for like 2 years and cannot believe we never shared about this…read moreawesome place. It is located in Fellsmere, which if you don't know is bumfuck Florida. However, this place is worth the drive. 2 minutes off of I-95 at exit 156. This is an old cow town and many farms still exist. It's 10 minutes from Lake Garcia which has awesome airboat rides. Airboat and Marsh breakfast is a great day. The place is an old bank I believe. Like from a zillion years ago. The interior is so cool. It is adorned with many taxidermy wildlife, historic pictures, and fun quotes. Fun. This is the place locals go to. Now let's talk food. We generally go For breakfast. Big portions, good prices, and ton of variety. So many southern specialties and freshly made. Their chicken fried steak is always a treat. Very down home country feel and menu. Today we went for lunch. My wife had shrimp and grits. YUMMERs! So good. The flavors coming out of this dish were as good, if not better than any we've had in the Carolinas. I had their chicken salad sandwich. They add bacon and love to this sandwich. I also think they use some dark meat which gives the whole thing a more chickeny taste. So good. And as if I was 5-years old, they serve it with ruffle potato chips and they were awesome. Especially when you dip them in the shrimp and grits sauce. The glazed carrots were as perfect as a glazed carrot can be. Slight hint of sweetness, so the carrot flavor was perfect. The only negative was the Mac N Cheese. That was a train wreck. The cheese had hardened throughout the dish making it not a smooth dish as one would expect. No issue. Oh, the applesauce was cinnimony awesomeness. Love this place and you will too. The service is not fast, so be patient. Great people, just a bit slow. M

We came here for brunch with a group and really liked the atmosphere. The restaurant has an old…read moreFlorida feel with lots of local history and interesting decorations. Service was friendly, and our drinks came out quickly. I ordered the fried gator tail nuggets. The breading was good, but the meat itself was chewy, which made them disappointing. Several people in my group also felt their meals were overcooked, from the eggs to some of the breakfast meats. It's not a bad place, and I can see why it's popular with locals, but based on this visit the food didn't quite match the atmosphere. I'd be willing to give it another try someday and hope this was just an off morning.

The servers delight in sharing the absolute joy this kitchen dishes up for every diner in that room. The servers all smile the knowing smile of someone who has seen hundreds of super satisfied customers with even happier bellies. So now to the food. My wife got the pulled pork sandwich and offered me half. I took a bite and gallantly handed it back before my tongue got the message back to the rest of me on just how great that sandwich was - otherwise, I would have likely had a real internal struggle to give any of her dinner back. The barbecue sauce was tangy and warm, the pork, delectable and the coleslaw layer, cool, crisp and punchy. This sandwich was the prince of pulled pork! The French fries it came with took me back 50 years to being a kid and knowing what a French fry was supposed to taste like - real potatoes that someone had peeled fresh, crinkle cut and used fresh oil to fry to perfection. Wow. We ordered a seven piece chicken with a side of fried okra. The chicken was superb. As you bit into it, there was a crack from the batter like a tree branch breaking in two. That batter was cooked to absolute perfection. The chicken itself was cooked nicely and slid right off the bone with no tooth wrestling needed. The okra was nicely fried, but the real treat was how the tang of the okra came shining through like it was being eaten whole - the flavor didnt get lost in a thick batter or too long a fry. We also ordered the St. Louis ribs and man, they were also deee-lishous. Well balanced between sweet and tangy, a super platter with some lovely mac and cheese and collard greens for accompaniment. We tried a few of their specialty lemonade flavors. They were nice, but not the highlight in this menu full of superstars. We all had happy but super full bellies, so the peach cobbler and the banana pudding we took home will need to wait for the morning for them to get evaluated. Given the rest of our experience, I'm not going to lose money betting against this place! I met the owner, a solid honest, look you in the eye type of fellow. You could tell two things about him right away: 1. He's a man who has a great deal of pride to have this restaurant and it's fine food to share with the world. 2. This is not an easy business, but he doesn't mind, because he just knows his food is high art in a soul food world made up of many poimitations. Go give these fine folks a try. I am most sure you will leave just like me - searching for words that just don't exist to describe how good this food really is. Thank you Kinfolk, and like another reviewer said, I will be dreaming of this food until I figure a way back to your shop.

We made a day trip to the area and were hungry, initially we wanted seafood but after stopping…read moresomewhere else we decided to pivot here after perusing reviews of this and several other establishments. ambiance is... well, its in a strip mall, interior wasn't too much to speak of. service was fast/friendly. the food- my wife got oxtails with collard greens, mac n cheese and cornbread. i got pork chop sandwich with onion rings (was told i wouldnt be able to get lettuce/tomato, which was fine, so i just asked for open face with side of gravy, i really wantef smothered style so this was fine). food arrived timely. the appearance of my food wasnt all that, but the pork chop tasted good, appeared to have light breading, with good flavor, maybe a touch over cooked. my onion rings were crispy, great to dip in ranch (thanks to my server for asking if I needed a side of it). The gravy was OK, but was separating a little/ runny and was extremely hot. so overall, I would give my food like a 3.75/5. we shared food and my wife echoed these sentiments. my wifes meal. first, I will only say that I didn't feel like you got very much portion wise for her protein, maybe we are a little spoiled as there is a Soulfood restaurant closer to where we live where the price is about the same but you get a lot more meat. however, flavor is king and... flavor of the oxtails here was lacking. my wife felt they were underseasoned. the rice with them was... rice, didn't really pick up any of the meetings from the broth/marrow of the oxtail bones. her mac & cheese was quite quite good, I ended up eating most of it. The collard greens were probably the worst thing we ate, no flavor at all, even after adding hot sauce. Normally my wife loves collard greens and I don't eat much, but she was more than happy to let me have as much of them as I wanted, but after a couple of bites, I stopped. overall, I would rate the food she ordered as 2.5/5. between our meals, one iced tea and tip it was $50. Again, the service was very good. My food was pretty good. My wife's food underwhelming. overall, Respectfully, we're not from the area so our odds of returning were not high anyway, but there was nothing else would really draw us back if we were to return to the area. my final note would be, they were not very busy, but it seemed like most of the customers where we could tell what they ordered had ordered the catfish so that made be indicative of something we or someone else might want to order on a future visit.

The interior of the diner is really cool - lots of tchotchkes, cars and the menus are old license plates. A guy at the next table over said that one of our menus was his old license plate.

I ordered the special Cadillac omelette - I believe it was tomato, provolone, sausage, onion and sun-dried tomato. Very very tasty. I wasn't expecting it to be that great because the omelettes are folded over the fillings instead of them being cooked in, but it was really good. Great service too. Highly recommended for a fun breakfast out.
