We read…read morethe restaurant's reviews and stopped by for a late lunch at 3 p.m. They lock the doors at 4 p.m. We were impressed. There were two people who came before us, and then a group of 14, and then my husband and me, followed by another bunch of people into a restaurant that was already packed. The waitresses did not even bat an eyelid. They were very polite and were busy doing their work. They were helping seat people as well as checking out people who had just eaten. We only waited about 15 - 20 mins. In the meantime, we chatted with the locals, who told us how often they came here just to eat the pies. When we got seated, the first thing we ordered and got started on were the AMAZING pies (chocolate PB for me and custard for my husband). Oh my God, they were out of the world yummy! We got to watch the ladies on the grill as they made the food. My husband ordered he Swiss steak and I had the double hamburger with all the fixings. The food is great but so are the people who work here --they are just so friendly, have worked here for years and truly care. You don't see this anymore. If I lived here, I would come here once a week to chitchat with them and eat PIE!! Make sure you come here. This place is a gem and has been here since 1948.

This is the second location in toledo. It's closer to the university campus. It has the same exact…read moremenu as the initial location on Reynolds Road. What it lacks is this friendly and efficient service that Reynolds Road has. Country fried steak and the pancakes are the standouts for me. I'm loving now that they're serving breakfast mimosas and Bloody Marys. The atmosphere just doesn't have the homey feel that the original location has. I think maybe I'm just partial to that location. Nothing wrong with this one but nothing special here either. If I have the option I will go to the Reynolds Road location. Prices are about 15 and under for nice size breakfast entree. My guy says the coffee is good. Worth a try.

Average at best. The fries have what they call beef however it's seems to be little balls of sausage. I'm. not sure it was worth the $4 upgrade. The flat bread pizza was solid. Not to big.

Funny, I didn't see one hill in all of northwest Ohio, much less in the place called, "Ottawa Hills." Why you gota lie? So anyway, driving through Vistula, I noticed how it has its fair share of black people. I love soul food. Who doesn't? It is ground zero for American cuisine. I googled around, some places weren't open; some other places turned out to be closed permanently. Josephine's Kitchen was alive. Now they operate on CPT, that much has to be said. You know what that means? It doesn't matter, it's all love. I got the smothered pork chops with greens and mac n cheese. I chose corn bread over the dinner roll. Pork chops was falling off the bone. Greens was right. The $15 dollar plate of food must have weighed five pounds. They feedin ppl here. The proprietress was one of the most competent and hospitable women I have ever come across.
