    Steffens is the real deal. I drove from Amelia Island for the southern delicacies and was not disappointed. Chicken and dumplings were the day's special and that most comfortable of comfort foods filled me up. Of course I can't forget to mention the mac and cheese, collard greens bc Georgia, a biscuit AND cornbread. Heck yes! My questions were all answered by the friendly server who happened to be behind the counter when I sat down. I wasn't in her station, but she was extremely helpful and took her time with me, even coming back later to make sure her recommendations worked out. There's a big menu with breakfast available all day. It's cute and clean, a classic diner vibe, and the prices are very affordable. Thanks for the southern hospitality!

    Steamers were good size but only 5 for $13. Fried clams were tiniest I've ever had. Coleslaw is good.

    A hidden gem that serves fresh comfort food at fair prices. Their fried chicken was 5 stars as well as the biscuits and gravy. Mashed potatoes with brown gravy was my personal favorite along with their Turkey club. Great service and comfortable nostalgic setting.

    Fun, nostalgic 50's diner brings fresh local ingredients to breakfast offerings. An unassuming spot in rural southern Georgia was a great surprise. Clean, friendly and great food in a walk back in time. Locals know this spot well and for breakfast lovers, this place doesn't disappoint. We arrived at 9:30 on a Wednesday and it was packed shortly thereafter. Great spot for a lovely morning drive near St. Mary's river, farm land and wetlands.

    Here's the scoop! We're headed home on I-95 and we needed to have breakfast. Our biggest problem is finding a restaurant that has parking for our 30 ft RV. So I let my Yelp App guide me to this old fashioned adorable southern restaurant. The place was packed to the gills'. All of the help were so nice, from the greeter, to the man who cleaned off a table for us, to the young lady that gave us menus and coffee and finally to our server Brittany! She took our orders, refilled our coffee cups, got Dave ice water and hot sauce! I ordered the western omelet which was loaded with ham and fresh veggies. I had cheese grits that were super creamy and cheesy, and an English muffin that Dave devoured. Even that tasted delish, maybe buttered and fried? Sometimes it pays to go off the beaten path to the road unknown! Best part was that I shared my breakfast with my little girl Freckles!

    Traveling I-95 south in a Class C This "find" was a welcome alternative to highway fast fare. Just 3 miles to BETTER! Hospitality, ambience, food, affordability, menu variety and good service. On a Sunday at 10am it was packed. The hostess had us seated after a short wait and the manager cleaned the tables. Coffee (good) immediately! Brittany showed up quickly and orders placed. 7 minutes wait time with a full house- real good. My scrambled eggs were just right. My wife Judy's omelette was over sized. Not jealous but I will remember next time we purposely return. Bacon was crispy and the cheesy grits outstanding. $29.16 + tip. An Off-95 bargain.

    The table top was so cool

    We found Steffens when we looked on Google Maps for a place to eat. They are off the beaten path that we normally travel but oh so worth the find. When we pulled up you knew how good they much be the parking lot was packed and this was just a Monday about 12:30 pm. We found a place to park and went inside, we waited about 10 minutes to be seated, so worth it. Busy busy place. Our waitress came and took our drink orders as we still wanted to decide from the menu, she came back and we ordered. My daughter and I got liver and onions, she got the greens and macaroni and cheese and I got mashed potatoes and creamed corn. The mashed potatoes are real and the creamed corn is homemade. All of it was oh so good. He got biscuits and gravy and pancakes, they tasted like grandmas house. Everything was oh so good. The waitress was amazing kept our glasses full and came by often to see if we needed anything. Portions are not small which made him happy. Inside the restaurant are many old picture's and lots to see just an overall great experience. This was our first time there and we will be back.

    Stopped here for breakfast on our way home from Cumberland Island. We had to put our name in but the wait wasn't too bad. Everything we ate was great!

    Vintage style family owned restaurant for sure. The reviews for the fried chicken is what brought us. We decided to share a four piece meal. They definitely give you plenty of food. For me, the Mac and cheese was bland and a little dry. The fries were over done but the fried chicken and potato salad were amazing. I do love some good cornbread that doesn't fall apart when you put butter on it. Our waitress was super cute and friendly.

    The best fried chicken in town (kingsland, GA). We were on the road for a few hours and stopped for lunch. Highly recommended.

    It's only 252 miles from our house in St. Petersburg, Fl to Steffens in Kingsland, Ga. The drive is worth it just for the collard greens. Sweet, a hint of heat, pork pieces, some stems (meaning these are the real deal). Best I've had since Elliot's mom taught me how to make greens back in 1978. We ate here twice in the last week. Once on the way to Durham. Once on the way back home. Fried chicken crispy and moist. Liver and Onions amazing. The beef tips in bourbon sauce was fantastic! Asked how I wanted them. Medium rare I said, hopeful but not really expecting anything. They were done absolutely perfect to my taste of medium rare. Pink center, tender, juicy, tasty. Not over-sauced with the bourbon sauce. Just the right amount of one tasty sauce to compliment the already delicious tips. Wow! Real home made mashed potatoes (pieces of potato in there just the way I like it). Fried okra. Amazing. Hush puppies with onion! We'll be back even if it is a four hour drive!

    Our second time here! We love this place! I gave it four stars due to the long wait to get your food after you have sat down at the table. But it's worth the wait. Prices are very reasonable. Staff is very friendly!

    Being from MD we didn't know what to expect. However, this…read moreplace has great customer service. Also Delicious food! Everything was good.

    Our first visit was incredible, such good food and service, but unfortunately, tonight's visit left…read morea lot to be desired. Came in and it wasn't incredibly busy. We had our two grandsons me and my husband. I ordered crab legs, baked potato green beans has been ordered black and chicken fried okra, baked potato one grandson ordered hamburger and french fries and the other ordered chicken strips and french fries. We ordered hash puppies as a start. This is how our order came out, hush puppies, then shortly afterwards my crab legs, green beans, baked potato, my husband's black and chicken and a baked potato a few minutes later my grandson's chicken fingers and fries and the other grandson's hamburger. Although the touch puppies came out with all the other food instead of a starter, they were still delicious hot and very appetizing. But that's the end of the goodness. My crab legs and green beans were cold! Very very cold! When I was finally able to get the waitresses attention and tell her they were cold, she took them back to fix. What I got back boiling hot green beans and the crab legs were only just lukewarm. Since they took my plate back with my baked potato, I kind of expected a fresh baked potato, but no such luck. My husbands blackened chicken, tasted like it was cooked in the same oil as the fish and that's a problem because he doesn't like fish. Plus he never got his fried okra. .... when I reminded the waitress that he had ordered the fried okra, we found out that they had ran out of fried okra, but by this time he was done with his dinner so what's the use of getting another side that we paid for ?. My grandson with a hamburger didn't get his french fries until about five minutes after he was finished with his hamburger. We paid full price and didn't complain because we were hungry, but sadly, we were very disappointed. I really expected so much better and since we had several problems with all this, I would've thought that they would've at least given us a small discount. I don't know that we'll be back anytime soon, if at all.
