If you're going on a Sunday, brace for a wait. Ample seating, but clearly the food is worth the…read morewait. The staff was welcoming, friendly, and fast. We got the country-fried steak and corned beef hash, both were delicious. The gravy on the steak was particularly good. Only downside was no half and half for the coffee. Only Coffeemate creamer.

I can't believe this place gets 4 1/2 stars! It's just Cisco food. Cisco is a restaurant supply…read morecompany. Not only is it all Cisco food, it's the lower end Cisco products. I guess small town clientele don't want to pay for farm to fork locally sourced whole foods. for example, instead of real maple syrup,, it's the fake corn syrup variety of maple syrup.. I asked for half-and-half with my coffee, they pointed to the non dairy Coffee mate coffee creamer. I got waffles and instead of butter, they just offer whipped spread that is hydrogenated vegetable oil. Farmers used to be into real farm products. it looks like there's a lot of farmers in here, but they are happy with the ultra processed fake alternatives to farm fresh foods. The bacon was also not crispy. I might normally give a place like this two stars, but their current star rating needs a reality check. The service was fine.

Wow! Who would have thought such a wonderful restaurant would be located in Weldon. It is worth a…read morespecial trip if you like barbeque. The chicken was cooked to perfection. It was smoky and tender and pealed right off the bone. It wasn't saturated in sauce either so you could really enjoy the chicken on it's own merits. The brisket was wonderful as well. Even my daughter enjoyed it and she is a picky eater. But the star of the show in my mind is the homemade brat. They have multiple different flavors of both pork and chicken brats. They were so good that we bought extras for home. These aren't fatty and greasy like store bought brats either. You could tell these were made with love and attention. I could eat the jalapeno-cheddar brats every day. Seriously. I could go on and on forever. The baked beans were honestly the best I'd ever eaten. I would go out of my way for them and I don't normally like baked beans. The sweet potato chips come with brown butter and marshmallow that you can dip them in. The portions are very generous and the prices are very fair for this caliber of food. The staff is friendly and prompt, and the owners don't mind taking time to chat with you. The place is not much to look at from outside, but the interior is impeccably clean and very inviting. The only potential negative is that they are only open from 5-9 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, but that only makes it more of a treat in my eyes. I can't wait to go back and try the ribs! UPDATE (3/26/12): I went back, and tried the ribs. UNBELIEVABLE!! I left nothing but bones behind... and trace amounts of sauce too, but that wasn't for lack of trying.

I got through almost 3 ribs and called it quits. Sooooo much meat! And yummy to the bones. I chose to use my fork but dive in fingers first lol because it's sooo worth it! The turkey lega are huge and hot! Smokey and amazing. Went on vacation and got one a a fair a few weeks ago. I had such high hopes but NOTHING compares to mamma d's! Sides were mac and cheese and corn on the cob. I love her mac and cheese but don't ask what's in it, she may tell you and if she does, you will gain 10 pounds! Last time i asked, there were 5 different types of cheese! Yummmmmmm and they all go perfecty together. Whatever you do, save plenty if room for a giant serving of Mt Dew Apple Dumplings (the real reason to go lol. Dessert first if you must!) I will truely miss this place when we move soon :-( luckily it's obly 25 miles away lol Enjoy. And don't drool when you see my pictures!
