Fried pork chops, Lima beans and turnip greens.
Ken S.

This meat and two is what southern cooking should taste like. My wife and I recently ate there and plan to take some friends there on our next visit. The fried chicken was excellent. The turnip greens and Lima beans were well prepared. Nothing was over seasoned. The staff were kind and courteous. The diner is tiny and nothing fancy. The location is sort of in the Auburn Kroger parking lot facing Glenn Ave. We had to drive "around our elbow" a couple of times to find it, but glad we did.

This was my first visit, and it was definitely worth it. I got a good amount of food, especially since they were giving out free plates. Everyone was really nice and welcoming, and the whole process was quick and smooth. I'd definitely recommend checking this place out if you're in the Auburn area.

Food was fantastic! Chicken fell right off the bone, candied yams were perfection, mac and cheese was so cheesy and good, service was great and the food came out super fast, definitely one of the best comfort food restaurants in Auburn!

Fried chicken

Loved it. Super simple meat and 2. Walked in with no line and easy enough to find our seat.

As good as Soul Food can be. We use to stop here about 6 times a year when traveling through now it…read moreis about once a year...and oh, how we miss it. We ordered two Meat & 2's and both consisted of A Big Fat Fried Chicken Breast, Black-Eyed Peas and Mac n Cheese. As always the chicken was cooked perfectly. Crispy on the outside with that perfect fried chicken skin and totally moist meat. The mac n cheese was very moist, not really runny and the texture was the perfect chew. No mushiness and no hard noodles. The black-eyed peas were out of this world good. They had a bit of spice in them and cooked good ole' Southern Style...cooked! We ate and ate until there was not more room. We gladly took our left overs for another wonderful meal. As we were leaving I said, oh, no "I forgot to take pictures. So I went and broke in line and took a couple of the cafeteria style food that everyone was so patiently waiting to be served. The staff works extremely hard. The restaurant is very clean. And the food is absolutely delicious. They do take togo orders and sometimes the line is out the door. They are closed on Saturdays. Highly recommend one try if in the area. Prices have remained relatively low while other places have increased their prices drastically. Our two meals which included drinks and tax was about $21. You can still buy a whole fried wing for under $2...it is $1.95.

Also came with a huge wedge of cake. The chicken was very flavorful and fried well. The green beans were tasty as well. I wasn't a fan of the cake..a bit dry. And who doesn't love a creamy Mac n cheese. I had heard great things about the food here so I was glad I was finally able to try it. They lived up to their reputation.

If you're from Atlanta, then you definitely know the famous Mary Mac's Tea Room, well this is the…read moreAlabama version. This is a hole in the wall place so don't be detered by the ambience as there isn't much but oh wow, the food and the service. Those deserve five stars for sure. The chef personally came out and explained to us what she used and what she recommended. Being a vegetarian , she knew how to make side dishes good without any meat which was a plus for us since we had a vegetarian in our group. See menu attached but how it works is they give you a piece of paper with what's available and if you want meat, you circle one meat and two side dishes for $9.99. This price is great because it also comes with rice, and a roll or cornbread and a drink. You definitely cannot get that deal anywhere else. We decided to go crazy and ordered a bunch more of their other side dishes and they were about $2 - $2.50 each and well worth it. Give them a try, I promise you won't regret it. Note: don't use the bathroom if you don't have to since it's in a weird part of the house/restaurant. In no way is it dirty but it just a makeshift bathroom located in a weird room. You'll know what I mean if you go there. Don't say I didn't warn ya.

CONS: Mash potatoes are instant. Plates lunches at $7.99 (Tues-Fri.) and $9.99 (on Sunday) are…read moreyour only menu option...nothing cheaper than this. The gospel music is great, but much too loud. PROS: The old house is a nice lunch setting. Service is good. The meat and seasoned veggies are delicious!
