Wasn't impressed at all for being open for 50 years! I ordered the Cobb salad with what I assumed…read morewould be blacked salmon because that's how it shows on the menu on their website. Got the salad & it was a pretty underdone piece of salmon after asking for it well done. Asked the waiter why it wasn't blackened (out of curiosity) still ate it & called it good & told me we had to ask for it blackened. It was a very basic boring salad with a frozen piece of salmon for $20. My husband ordered a burger & fries. The burger was really good & he got goat cheese & bacon on it. The fries on the other hand were not it. Bummer because they are supposedly hand cut. They were drenched in oil. Like to the point that you couldn't even eat a few without feeling awful. They were soggy & heavy. Think homemade fries but in a super old fryer with lots of crisco. Overall very underwhelming for a place with such high reviews. Won't be back! Gotta step up it up if you guys plan to stay in business for another 50 years!

I loved the taste of the country fried steak but would've enjoyed having it battered more prior to frying. Food was a smidge too salty but everything tasted so good that I didn't mind so much.

As I was leaving, I caught a sign showing a different version of it too.

The biscuits are quite a bit larger than a typical biscuit, and also tasted quite a bit better than a typical biscuit! Great flavor and a great value. We also split the famous cinnamon roll that was just as great. We WILL be back again! Highly recommend this place!

Everyone was friendly and it seemed like all the servers & the hostess worked together.regardless of table assignment. The ambiance was a restored textile location from years ago. We went there not very hungry but looking at the menu and what others were having, we ate more. The two soups were very well done. The fritters with the tomato soup were very good. My husband said the wedge salad could have been a little larger however, the dressing was very tasty. I had the shrimp pomadora. Again, a well done main dish. We would definitely recommend this location. Do make a reservation, or get the wait list as we went on a Thursday and it was very crowded.

My husband & I tried this restaurant for the first time for a birthday dinner, hoping for a special…read moreevening. We unfortunately left disappointed. For cocktails, my husband ordered the Mango Sunshine & I ordered the Cucumber Mojito. Both were refreshing & tasted good overall, but did seem quite weak. For dinner, my husband ordered the braised short rib from the Specials menu & I ordered the lamb chops, one of my absolute favorite foods. I ordered the lamb chops medium rare & they were quite overdone, with the last one I tried to eat being well done. The brussels sprouts on the other hand were quite underdone, and were solid to the point that I couldn't even stick my fork through them. I asked for asparagus as a replacement, which ended up being underdone as well. My husband felt his mashed potatoes were too salty & that his broccoli was cooked into mush, but had no issues with the short rib. On a positive note, the staff was very friendly, & the complimentary biscuits were absolutely delicious. Overall, for the high prices they charge at this establishment, it is absolutely not worth it. I do not think we will be returning.
