I've heard it said before that if you want home cookin', then eat at home. I normally subscribe to…read morethis belief. It's one reason I don't go out for breakfast ~ I can make a pretty good breakfast at home. No use paying someone to do something I can do. So, going into Jackson's restaurant, a mom and pop restaurant specializing in home cooked style food, I had my doubts. Walking up to what resembled a school cafeteria lunch line only furthered my doubts. And, seeing the sheer number of different options sitting out behind the glass window only furthered my suspicions. Look, I was wrong. The food here is really good. The service is super friendly and helpful. I was so overwhelmed by all the choices I just told the lady behind the glass counter to pick me something. She obliged with a kindness that made me think she knew me somehow. She chose the chicken and dumplings, beef stew, apples, and two different types of corn bread. Now, I thought initially, and she even admitted, that the chicken and dumplings/beef stew mix was a little unorthodox, but that they were both so good I had to try them. Both were fantastic. The apples were awesome. I liked both types of corn bread. When I got up to leave, she called me over to the counter and said that since it was my first time there, I'd get a free dessert. You all, I was too full to even try. The food here is both tasty and filling. I was in Richmond for a conference at Eastern Kentucky University. So it was really convenient to stop by. But I'd say that even if you're remotely close, it's worth a visit. Don't, as I did, judge a book by its cover.

They close when supplies run out, and it always seems to be quickly after they open. Check Facebook! Best burger I've ever had! You do have to wait, but it's well worth it! The homemade mustard is a little sweet and tangy, and is excellent! It's so cheap for a burger and chips! Mr. Wink (maybe?) is super attentive and kind! He was always asking if anyone needed more of their beverage. He remembers seasoned visitors and keeps great rapport. I appreciated that the Ale-8 and bottled water were just a dollar! It's a little busy and it can get loud, but it's not too bad. Take a look at the stickers!

A couple of people took notice that we may be first timers and welcomed us on with all the details of the place. We grabbed the pepper/pepper bacon burger with Winks homemade mustard and Grippos. Washing it down with a cold beer made it all a winning combo! Some tips: If you are going, check their Facebook. They are open limited days/hours plus they aren't a huge operation so do take days off if it strikes their fancy. Go early and expect a wait. We showed up 5 minutes after opening and all stools were full and standing room only. Just get a beer and wait your turn.

I ordered a 12" Meat Lover's Pizza and added 1/2 with Banana Peppers to go. Enjoyed watching a College Football Bowl Game while waiting on my pizza. Didn't get a good picture of the pizza before the wife and I dived into it. Great service and always great pizza. True Gillum's pizza is cut in squares, not in slices.

Best tator tots I've ever had. The bartender Michael is a Packers fan and was the nicest guy. This place has lots of tv for viewing games and Michael was great at getting the game we wanted to watch on the big screen. Overall, great place. Why only a 4 star? They serve Pepsi and not Coke! :/ Ugh!

Still my favorite steakhouse in Richmond. We always check…read morein on their app to get on their waitlist, other times, we order our meals to-go. Either way, the food is always hot and fresh. Of course, you can never go wrong with their Cactus Blossom onion for an appetizer! My 'go-to' steak order is their 12 ounce New York Strip (medium rare), baked potato, and a salad. Another one of my comfort-food favorites is their Country Fried Chicken with mashed potatoes and green beans. My wife loves their "Road Kill" (chopped steak) or their herb crusted chicken. The grilled lemon that comes with the herb crusted chicken always adds a nice flavor profile to the chicken. Salads are always fresh and cold. Be sure and ask for John to be your waiter if he is working when you are there. John is always extra-attentive and gives 1st class service every time, although I must add that ALL of their waiters and waitresses are top-notch.

Kaleigh is super friendly and attentive (example: we didn't have to ask for refills, she perceived the future need and delivered refills before our glass was empty. She also brought us spare napkins without having to ask). Simple little things like this always make the difference between a good meal and a great meal! We both ordered the chicken strips and they were promptly served very hot and cooked perfectly. My salad came in a chilled bowl and the lettuce was crisp, fresh, and cold. Fries were cooked perfectly-- crispy and hot. I also ordered a side of their macaroni and cheese which is always excellent (probably the best Mac and cheese in town). My wife had a sweet potato which was huge! Today's visit was completely different from our previous one and everything was excellent. The manager came around at the end of our meal and was very friendly. Great job tonight Logan's! I must say, if you ever stop and eat here, be sure to ask for Kaleigh to be your waitress!

The only thing that will catch your attention when driving by is the roadside banner mentioning "Open Fridays from 4pm-8pm" -rather poorly designed sign because for years I thought this place was open ONLY Fridays 4-8pm. Today was Friday and I had free time, so I thought I would stop in. When I approached the door, I could see that they are open daytime hours, as well. But without the banner, I never ever would have noticed this place. Anyhow, I ordered Tom's Spicy Burger and a side of onion rings. Delicious burger but neither spicy nor a "Better Burger" -especially for the price. See other reviews for burger description. Kroger's "Private Selection" frozen burger patties taste better and the package of six patties is about the same price as Tom's Spicy. Still, it wasn't bad but it was definitely more pricey than spicy. The onion rings were delicious. I would strongly recommend them as I do prefer battered rather than breaded.They were perfectly fried, great temperature, and they were the highlight of the meal. The fried pickles appetizer was a total waste of $8. Always had deep-fried battered pickle chips at other places. Here? They take a dill pickle spear and slice it long-ways before battering the thin strips and frying. I truly thought they accidentally brought me fried string beans or something. The ONLY detectable flavor was the batter and the ranch dip with the faintest, barely existent hint of dill. I might drop in another time but after a nearly $30 bill for the three items and a drink just for myself, there are other places with a better value. Jackson's comes to mind and they know how to make fried pickles much better!

The salad was missing the smoked turkey, the cuban was on sourdough and we asked for a bun, we asked for BBQ sauce only and it had mustard and BBQ sauce. The waitress brought out a plate with sliced smoked turkey, no knife on the table to cut it. About 10 minutes later she brought out the correct sandwiche. Everything was delicious. Just wished the service was better.

(It's not on their menu, but some fried green tomatoes with the same breading that's on the okra would be awesome!) Whether to-go, or dining in, the folks at our local Sonny;s always do it right and the waiters and waitresses are very friendly. If you dine in, order your fries extra crispy!
