    2 Timin onion burger and fries
    R F.

    Amazing hole in the wall place!!! We loved it. Family of 6 passing through and we were so hungry! Great selection on the menu. Yummy sweet tea! Our waitress Brandy was an absolute sweetheart and really cared about us. The 2 timin onion burger with a beef patty, pulled pork and an onion ring was so amazing! The fried chicken breast sandwich was freshly prepared and a very large portion. The fancy hotdog was yummy! The catfish platter with set-up was so much food and so good! Thank you very much for the great service and tasty food. If we ever come back through, we'll stop again. Love the Fish family! God bless you.

    This an out of the way restaurant, but it is worth the drive. It has a nice, inviting atmosphere. They have a great variety on the menu as well as reasonable prices. The staff was very attentive and friendly. I had the Whippet Burger with French fries. It was plenty of food that filled me up. I later learned that they have a 1/2 pound version of that burger. It would have been difficult for me to finish that one, I'm sure. My oldest son and I rode motorcycles here. I'll definitely be bringing my wife here soon.

    Fish and chicken combo with onion rings.  .  Beans coleslaw hushpuppies and pickled tomatoes are all good.

    Pleasantly shocked. All you can eat sides that taste great along with the great tasting fish and chicken. Highly recommend this restaurant to any hungry traveler coming this way

    I've driven there the past 2 Sundays and it's been closed. I think there needs to be an upgrade to the hours listed as open.

    Good fish. It's a small restaurant with small mentality. Be patient and you will get some of the best catfish you can eat.

    Great food and great service! It is out in the middle of no where but it's hands down worth the trip if you want some good fish! A++++++++

    It's been a couple years since we've been to Home Plate and the quality has slippled both in…read moreservice and food. This was a no credit card day, which is unfortunate but understandable. The waitress brought water and menus then disappeared. We had to go look for her to take our order. Another waitress finally showed up and was very unfriendly and short. The food, meatloaf, potatoes, broccoli arrived and was mediocre at best. Meatloaf was loaded with fillers and smothered in tasteless gravy. Less than quarter cup of potatoes smothered in gravy and broccoli was mostly stems and small pieces. Waitress never stopped by to check how things were. We used to rave about this place but sadly, no more. Finally, we had to go look for our waitress for the bill. No thank you, no come back soon, no appreciation for stopping by. Probably won't be back.

    Was recommended this place, I heard they have good breakfast…read more I'm glad I checked them out! Small business, didn't accept cards the day I went there. I think they normally do. I got the two egg breakfast with meat. It was made with care, and was really good! I was satisfied with the plate and didn't feel like I overpaid or was underserved. The waitress was very hospitable and brought us many rounds of some of the best sweet tea I've ever had. Home Plate is a hearty place with good people manning the ship. I'd come back and I'd tell anyone close by to give them a try!

    This small restaurant in this small town should get more recognition than it probably does. First…read moreof all the place is cute and cozy. Secondly we had to wait a few to be seated on a Friday evening. That's a good sign. We were sat within 5-10 mins. Our server (Brie) I believe was amazing. We asked her for suggestions. She was not shy and suggested the pork chops and Fish. Boy was she right! I got the catfish. I am not a huge catfish fan unless it is done right and CLEAN. Theirs is exactly that! Well seasoned and amazing! The hush puppies were hand made not frozen and were the best from a restaurant that I have had. I also. Had the baked potato, potato salad. Again easily the best I have ever had. Back to the battered and fried pork chops, unless you are able to eat enough for a family of 4 or the 1/2 portion. They were simply seasoned in a way that any chef should be proud of!! We took 3/4 home and airfares them the next day. He had the green beans with the chops and Lordy they could potentially make you slap your momma. Here's the thing. We eat out a lot and I do write a lot of reviews but this hands down was one the top 5 experiences in the last 3-4 years. This meal with drinks was only $38 before a nice cash tip on the table. I will be back again and again! I hope more people find this special place so close to Lake DeGray

    This place just isn't for me. The fried green tomatoes were fine. The pretzel bites were not. There…read morewas no salt & no flavor. The cheese sauce was a not-good nacho cheese sauce like you'd get at the little league ballpark concession. The waitstaff was friendly & quick, so 2 stars...
