Cottondale, FL just got on our map!…read more We're heading to Destin, FL from Orlando and all the reviews of this local treasure sparked our curiosity! Well...Ms. Glenda did not disappoint! The fresh Alabama raw oysters were absolutely fresh and delicious. I'm not a grits fan, but my husband ordered the shrimp and grits and the texture and taste was on point ! Hush puppies...yum! Mahi Tacos yum yum...and a sample of the gumbo will have us coming back. Delicious food, cozy family atmosphere, and fríendly attentive staff. So glad we stopped in at this local gem! We will definitely be making it stopping point along our travels! Stop in, you'll be glad you did!

They had a fairly large menu, but it'd be hard to stray from those three things because of how tasty they were. You order at the counter and they bring your food out to you, it was a two person show and I felt they ran it wonderfully. We will be back and recommend you stop! Do bring a sweater though, it's chilly inside.

The only thing I did not care for was the order at the window, get a number and deliver to the table. I just prefer to have someone take my order at the table where I am being served. Not the end of the world, just my preference. Everyone there was polite and friendly. I needed a condiment and walked back up to the service window to request. It was quickly provided with a smile, but it would be nice if there was wait staff to check on me and provide for my needs

But the food, well if your on a restricted diet it might be ok, but there was no flavor to anything I ate, shrimp nope just texture, fish nope just texture again. Potatoes well tasted like well texture. Food just didn't do it for me so I wouldn't recommend. But I would if you were just looking for a Pepsi and a smile.

Well, that didn't work , he was even more rude to me over the phone. I used to love to eat here , as did my family , but now , I wouldn't dare return.

We stopped here years ago and hoped the food was still the same. It might even be better than…read morebefore. We started with a bowl of gumbo. It was loaded with little bites of sausages, chicken, shrimp, and scallops. All those proteins were nestled with just the right amount of spices in a rich broth with onions and tomatoes. A nice helping of rice topped off the dish nicely. We shared the grilled catfish fillets. You have an option of one, two, or three fillets. We opted for three for only $21. The filets were good size and nicely grilled with a bit of blackening seasoning. The meal came with a single trip to the salad bar and a side. The salad bar has several options of pasta salads, chopped lettuce with toppings, and a sweet slaw. We chose the blackened new potatoes as our other side. We thought that they were really good. Bread options included: hush puppies, cheese, bread, or yeast rolls. The hush puppies were a little overdone. So we were able to get an order of the cheese bread. Which is large yeast rolls with cheddar cheese, baked in the top. They were really good. The servers are friendly and never seemed to stop moving. The seating is basic older restaurant booths and tables which are comfortable. They offer interesting sayings at each table such as... "I'm not saying it's your fault. I said I'm blaming you." They have a full bar and lounge. Side note-the parking lot is huge and has plenty of room for vehicles towing trailers.

I wish they had more cheese options but they only had the standard American cheese and personally I felt the quality of the cheese could have been better. I got fried okra as my side and it was delicious. Sweet tea was my drink of choice and I felt that it should have been richer and sweeter. It tasted more like sugar water versus sweet tea. SERVICE: Family oriented. Friendly. Welcoming. I got there close to 11am so there was definitely a lunch rush coming in, but service was quick and my order was accurate. Overall, this was a great southern restaurant for the small town of Vernon. ATMOSPHERE: Small. Casual. Kid friendly. LOCATION: Private parking lot with a decent amount of parking.
