“Ate lunch there today, and it was OUTSTANDING! Counter man was friendly and helpful. Menu so large, hard to decide! We ate, my husband and I had bbq sandwiches, pork in chunks which was different and soooooo tasty, shared fries and beans, for about $16! Would recommend and definitely go back, so nice to find friendly, clean atmosphere with tasty affordable food.“

“We stopped here while on a Carolina Waterfall Tour. Even though it’s right on the side of the road the setting is lovely. The porch has about 10/12 rocking chairs and there are some picnic tables with umbrellas. The ice cream was good but they were out of two flavors. And enjoyable stop.“

“Been eating here since they opened in 1963. It can't be beat for quality, reasonable food. Best hush puppies anywhere.“

“Superb customer service I've ever gotten the entire year. I was really shocked how outstanding the service was, today was my son's birthday. Ronlando, the manager, and his staff demonstrated efficiency, leadership, dedication, and communication. Their warm hospitality is the reason I go out to eat; they were so polite when they seated and welcomed us, making everyone feel completely at home.He assisted my disabled sister with her seat, then followed up to make sure everything was alright.Whenever I had any concerns or questions , I valued being acknowledged and taken seriously. The food was great and really fresh. They then came out and began singing "Happy Birthday to my son in the end." I had a great experience , and I will be returning soon.“

“Busy place!! We're servers 1st off, so we understand. We ordered steaks, duh. Filet and ribeye. (MR) Came out blue rare. Sent them back and got same steaks, flashed and now rare. We decided to eat them because we were starving... Poor form for a "steakhouse". Everything else was GREAT, including our waitress!! (Who we tipped 20+% Not her fault you have someone who can't cook meat.) Lol. I recommend the filet. Tasty even rare!!“
