    Trackway burger

    Fantastic service and the food portions were absolutely huge. A real hometown spot for sure and I will definitely be back.

    a grilled cheese sandwich and french fries

    I was traveling the Natchez Trace and stopped by this highly recommended roadside cafe. It's only a half-mile off the Natchez Trace which made it a great option. The service may have been a bit slow however the outstanding food made up for it. I have the shaved steak sandwich with fries and a bowl of gravy and it did not disappoint! It took me back to my childhood to one of our families favorite spots in North Louisiana. Highly recommend!

    My husband and I got food poisoning the last time we ate there. We always get the same thing and used to eat from there often. Not anymore

    Another mom and pop restaurant. I wasn't impressed, but it wasn't bad. It was just greasy food.

    Nothing artisanal here, just good American food. If you are worried about dust, get dusted.

    Place is always crowded. Not the cleanest, not the best food - but dang the quantity of food and price. Can't beat it!

    Ate here over the spring and just getting to the review. I was reminded to review it due to the…read moreplate pic I took! It was pretty crowded as expected on a weekend so I decided to just sit at the bar. The place itself was clean, nice, and obviously well kept. Some of the other reviews are what sparked my interest, and I can honestly say that I'm glad I showed up. I told the bartender it was my first time in and told her I was looking for a steak. The one she suggested had a small sweet marinade to it. I'm not really a sweet steak guy but I went with it.... and man was it really good. Cooked to perfection (medium rare) and tasted super fresh. The Mac and cheese was also solid, as was the sweet tea. Now... the chicken noodle soup: I loved it. Big soup here and although this soup was not "brothy" at all, it was thick and creamy, so good. Overall, I can't wait to go back to Starkville if it's on the schedule next spring because if it is, I know where I'll be returning for a meal.

    This was definitely a great surprise stop. This will be my new spot when visiting. Everyone's…read moredishes were done well, plenty of flavor and made fresh. Table had chicken strips & fries, salads, chicken soups, steak and rice, shrimp pasta, and burger meal. The chicken fingers were hand breaded in house and great with a nice honey mustard. The chicken soups are thick comfort food. Decent sized dishes. Everyone left full. Dessert was pecan crusted strawberry cheesecake. Slices I thought were a tad small but they tasted good. Sever was nice and attentive but forgetful. It was a busy evening though.

Jacob P. Was our server and he was awesome. He explained the menu to us and gave us feedback on what he would recommend of the options we gave. He was constantly checking on us to make sure we had everything we needed. We started with the chips and queso. It was good, but nothing to write home about. Just your normal chips and queso. I had the catfish lagniappe and it was SUPERB! I loved the blackened catfish over the grits with the yummy crawfish sauce. The flavor combinations were on point and I throughly enjoyed every single bite! My husband had the Caribbean steak and really loved the flavor of the steak, but it was cooked a little more than the medium he asked for. The flavor made up for it though and he cleaned his plate. We both had the honey bacon brussel sprouts which were very tender and tasty as well. Pro tip, make sure to get all the yummy sauce that settles in the bottom. My son had the chicken Alfredo pasta along with a Caesar salad and he enjoyed his as well. If you're ever in the Starkville area, I highly recommend you give this place a try.
