Thankful to have found this place while taking a class in Alexandria. Tons to choose from and a…read morefamily business. Very friendly and good food that I will be back to try more of. Two decent sized rooms to sit inside and two four-top spots right out front.

Nice old place and nice owners…read more Food was good. Tried the pork plate. That was just ok. Mashed potatoes had a little spice which was nice. The tuna salad was great. The teriyaki sauce was flavorful just needed more. The turkey and chicken salad sandwich were basic sandwiches but bread was decent. The bread pudding was dry for me. I like a sauce with mine. The blueberry was ok and the almond was too sweet. The cherry pie was delicious though. I liked the thick crust and tart cherries.

The food was great. The employees seemed to be waiting for the rush. The biggest problem I had at…read morethis location was tripping on a piece of concrete embedded wood in the parking lot. I asked for a manager to inform them so that someone doesn't actually get hurt, but the employees stated they would let the manager know and they are not allowed to give out the manager's phone number. They did not seem to be in a hurry to call their manager, but after insisting, they came and looked at the hazard and agreed it was an issue. I've attached photos of the hazard. I fell down around 10:35 AM and caught myself, but at 7:15 PM am still experiencing hand, shoulder, back, and toe pain. Whoever is the owner of this parking lot needs to be informed and aware that this is a lawsuit waiting to happen. If you trip on this hazard, please be aware that the restaurant IS AWARE of the danger as of 10:45 AM, refused to let me speak with someone in charge, and that it has already caused minor injuries to myself, a pregnant woman.

I wanted a soul food lunch and came here. I was not disappointed. The dining room is spacious so…read moregreat for large groups and work lunches. I got the special of the day which was baked chicken with rice and gravy and two sides. They guy serving was super sweet to explain to me the ordering process and I had a great conversation with the woman in line before me who comes every week for the Wednesday special. For my sides, I chose the greens and mashed potatoes. Even though I got two starches, it was worth it because the mashed potatoes and gravy were worth having as a main dish! I loved the greens, too, especially since they had all the hot sauce and peppers and vinegar choices you could want. The chicken was fork tender and I left nothing on the plate. I love that they provide each guest a little wrapped package of cornbread and iced cake of the day, too. I will definitely be stopping at Pamela's any time I'm in town.

FOOD: There was very little selection to choose from. Based on our experience, we could tell the…read morefood didn't seem very fresh and may have been sitting out all day. We both felt really heavy afterward, and my mom even felt sick after eating there. It was just basic diner food and a bit overpriced for something you can get almost anywhere else. However, the cake that comes with the cornbread was my favorite part. SERVICE: The service was fine. It had more of a cafeteria-style vibe, so there isn't much to say about it. AMBIANCE: The inside felt very run down. The bar wasn't even finished and didn't look like it was ever used. Overall, it had a very hole-in-the-wall feel.

I had read in a local poll that Darrell's had the best hamburgers in Alexandria. I've never put…read moremuch stock in those polls because it's usually the restaurant owners getting their friends and family to vote for them. But finally, I tried the hamburger and fries. It was a very good hamburger for the price. I do think there are better hamburgers in town, but they cost more. This hamburger is certainly better than one you would get from a fast food chain. The fries were pretty good. They're the kind I like. I would eat here again.

They never have anything that you order on the menu. everything you see in person is not on the…read moreonline menu so when you order it, they won't let you switch it out because they don't have the right to do it so they say, but it has been done for me before. I would not give a cent to them for a tip just because they're so rude and unwilling to accommodate a customer.
